A/N~ Yo sorry in advanced for this chapter being rushed and poorly written. 

Tom's P.O.V

At some point in the night, I had fallen asleep in Tord's arms. Soft piano music still played through the ear buds Tord had given me. Feeling a strong arm around me, I blushed softly and forced my tired eyes open only to see that the Norwegians face was centimeters away from mine. I held my breath and tried to worm my way out of his arms without waking him. With some miraculous luck I managed to get away from Tord's hold with little to no effort.

Once I stood from the bed I stretched and looked out the window to see it was still dark out. After earning some satisfying pops from my back I felt a light breeze come through the room causing me to shiver. This put me slightly on edge because all the heaters in the house are running so there is no reason for it to be cold. Despite wearing a sweater already I grabbed a spare blanket and wrapped it around my shoulders to go investigate the light breeze.

I quietly went down the stairs and into the living room. Only the light of the burnt out fire in the fireplace and the illuminating glow of the moon shining through the windows as a source of light. Looking around the living room all the windows were shut and locked. Feeling the breeze again I followed were the breeze seemed to come from. Walking into the foyer I stopped dead in my track. The door was wide open. I hesitantly shut the door and looked between the study and the day room. If someone was here they would be in one of those two rooms as I was just in the living room with a clear view of the kitchen and dining room.

Hopefully it was only the storm....yeah....the winds were probably too strong and it opened the door. Seems likely. It is a old house. I kept trying to reassure myself. I should get back upstairs with Tord...Just to check if he is fine. Probably give him another blanket because it's pretty chilly.

Acting on my thoughts I made my way back into the living room and kept looking over my shoulder. I know I'm just getting paranoid and shit but it seriously feels like someone is watching me. Looking around the room I shook my head "Stop it Tom...you're only scaring yourself..." I mumbled to myself and walked up the stairs and back into the room.

Since it was still dark outside I decided to climb back into bed with Tord, tossing the blanket I was using over the both of us and laid back. Tord wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me close to his chest. My cheeks dusted a light pink and I smiled softly, closing my eyes to go back to sleep with the uneasy feeling of someone watching.

————————————————————————————

For the second time this morning I had waken up. This time the light of dawn shone through the window, slightly blinding me when I opened my eyes. I looked over my shoulder at Tord, who was still passed out, "Tord...." I groaned and pushed myself away from him and continued to try to wake up the Norwegian man, "Tord, get you lazy arse up."

Getting up from the bed I slipped on my shoes before looking back at Tord. Rolling my nonexistent eyes, I flicked his forehead "Get the fuck up, Tord!" I screamed.

Tord let out a tired groan, touching his forehead and looking at me with tired eyes, "Shove off, Tom...." his voice was raspy and his accent was heavier than usual.

Tord's words flew right over my head when I heard Tord give out a nasty cough, "You're sick." I said automatically, my motherly instincts kicking in, "I told your dumb ass to keep your damn coat on yesterday when you were out playing hero, but nooo" I stretched the 'o' in no, "Why should big ole Tord listen to little ole me? Tsk... Mr. I go out in shorts and no shirt in the middle of winter in Norway. Now look! It's freezing out and we can't go back home because I don't need you fucking crashing us because you sneezed or some shit."

"Jesus fuck Tom..." Tord rasped our "It's just a cough..."

Tom kept a glare on Tord, "Do you even hear yourself right now? You sound like crap." Tord coughed loudly followed by a sniffle "Your cough sounds nasty. You were out cold." I press the back of my hand to his forehead "And you're burning up! I'm calling Edd. I'll get him to bring some soup and meds. The most I can do for you right now is keep you as warm as possible. I'll go make you some herbal tea with honey." I turned to walk out.

"Why are you being so nice...?" Tord asked before I left the room, causing me to stop in mid step.

I didn't turn to look at him, "I have always been nice, Tord. You were just to big of an asshole to ever notice...." I walked out leaving Tord alone in the room.

Making my way downstairs and into the living room, I started a new fire and fed it wood until I was satisfied with the intensity of it. Sighing I stood straight and walked into the kitchen to start a kettle of boiling water for the tea.

While the water boiled, I leaned against the counter and grabbed my phone my from were it laid on the charger and dialed Edd's number. I chewed on my lip as the phone rang afraid Edd might not answer.

To my relief Edd's gruff voice echoed in my ear, "What is it, Tom...." He yawned out.

"Hey Edd." I hummed, "Tord And I ran into a problem and can't get home. Can you please give me your assistance? Preferably as soon as possible?" Oops, said that more discreetly than I meant to.

Edd was quiet for a second before he sighed deeply, "What the fuck did you two do?"

I let out an airy laugh, "How ride of you to think we did something wrong." I smiled softly "Tord got sick trying to be a hero yesterday."

"A hero?"

I set the phone on speaker and climbed on top of the counter to get some mugs down from the cabinets, "Yep. We needed more fire wood so Tord went to go cut some. But he saw I was shivering so he gave me his coat, even though I was about to go inside where I had extra clothes. Said he'd be fine, but now he is hacking up His lungs."

Edd hummed, "Okay I'll be there in about-" arms wrapped around my waist a yanked me off the counter. A yelp escaped my lips as the mugs I held in my hands fell and shattered, "Tom?! You okay? Did you fall?" Edd asked worryingly.

"Yeah I'm fine....Tord what the-" I turned to see a tall dark man. I took a step back it my back hit the counter.

"Tom....?" Edd asked.

The man gave a smirk, "thought my eyes were playing tricks on me when I saw you ...but apparently not ....some freaky ass eyes you have there cutie."

I gulped and kept looking at the man "Tom...!" Edd sounded worried.

"E-Edd...."

I whimpered when the man took out a pocket knife and pointed it at me, "Cut off the call." He orders. I shook my head and placed the flat side of the blade under my chin and lifted my head to look up at him "Cut off the Call now...." He growled

Edd was now yelling through the phone but I just shakily grabbed it and ended the call.

The man smiled and moved the knife from my neck and caressed my face, "What's a pretty think like you doing here...?"

I cringed at the touch and looked away. He grabbed my jaw harshly and made me look at him, giving me a hard glare as if saying I should answer his questions, "Th-The storm...." I whispered.

The guy placed his hands on my hips and pulled me to his chest, "And I big guy with you? Who is he?"

His tight made me squirm, "A-A friend...." I answered reluctantly.

He leaned down and kissed my jaw and murmured in my ear, "Don't lie to me.... I don't like liars..."

I gulped, "I-It's True.... h-he picked me up from work.... we live with two other friends but we got caught in the rain...."

The guy nodded "Hmmm.... so he wouldn't mind if I took you right here right now... the fact you're all squirmy is turning me on~"

I gasped and tried to push away from him, "L-Leave me alone....!" I screamed

"Tom....? You okay...?" Tord raspy voiced called from upstairs.

Both the guy and I looked at the stairs then At each other. I took my chance and jerked up my knees, kneeing him in the crotch. The man groaned and let me go, "Tord!" I yelled.

The man growled and grabbed the back of my hoodie, pulling me back into the counter. I let out a cry of pain as my back made contact with the granite counter. Feet hit the floor above us, "Tom!"

The man had his hand at my throat, "You little fucking whore!" I scratched at his hands, gasping for air but he didn't loosen his grip. Only tightened it more. My vision now getting blurry.

"Hey let go of him!" Tord was at the kitchen door, looking pissed.

The man turned and Tord's eyes widened slightly but he didn't loose posture, "Fine." The man said and let go of my throat. I sucked in a sharp breath of air and rubbed my neck.

Tord pulled the guy back by his hair and swung his fist. The sound of Tord's fist connecting to the guys jaw made me flinch. The guys head snapped to the side from the impact. He spit out some blood and a few teeth and gave a bloody smile to Tord, "Watch your fucking back...." Was all he said before winking at me and stalking out.

I looked over at a seething Tord, "Hey let's get you back to Bed....."

Tord blinked and looked at me, all anger leaving his eyes. He grabbed my shoulders and looked at me with worry, "Are you Okay, Tom? Did he hurt you badly?"

I gave him a tight smile, "I'm fine, Tord. promise. Now let's get you to bed. You're still sick...." I placed a hand on his shoulder. He looked at me reluctantly but I still led him back upstairs to the room.

Tord sat on the bed, "Are you sure your fine...?"

I giggled softly at his worries for me, "I assure you it fine, Tord. Now please lay down....I need to call Edd again."

Tord shook his head, "No. You're staying here with me." He said it as a demand.

"No. I'm just going back downstairs. I'll be fine." I argued.

Tord let out a cough and looked at me with seriousness, "Yeah. Downstairs where you are alone and unprotected. You're staying here. Use my phone to call Edd."

I sighed and didn't dare take the effort to argue with him, "Fine..." I sat next to him and he finally laid down.

Picking up his phone I dialed Edd's number and placed it between my ear and shoulder, removing my shoes as it rang, "Tord....?" Edd's voice asked

I crossed my legs on the bed and grabbed the phone properly, "Tom" I corrected, "Sorry I scared ya earlier. Tord started to vomit and I freaked out a bit." I lied through my teeth.

Feeling Tord's glare on me I turned to look at him and flipped him off, "Oh okay then. Well I am about to head out there now. After he eats we can take my car back to the apartment."

Tord's snatched his phone from me, "Then who will drive my bike back?" He asked.

"Woah you sound like shit. And what Bike?" Edd asked

I rolled my eyes and snatched the phone back, "He is talking about his precious motorbike."

Tord huffed and grabbed the phone and put it on speaker, "I know Tom can't drive it. I doubt you know how to drive one. I'll be fine and drive myself back." He insisted

Edd sighed, "No Tord. We don't need you sneezing and loosing control. Your bike just has to stay there until you are well again."

Tord Groaned and let his head fall back onto the pillows and closed his eyes. I hummed, "Edd, I've been trying to give Tord some tea but he won't let me leave the room." Tord's eyes flew open, "Can you try to tell him to let me out to do that?"

Edd clicked his tongue, "Tord, let Tom make you tea. You really need it. Something warm will help soothe your throat."

Tord sat up again "But-"

"No buts." Edd cut in "You keep talking with that rasp and you'll loose your voice."

I hummed and placed my hand on Tord's knee, "Please, Tord? I'm only trying to help."

Tord clenched his jaw and looked away from me, "Fine...." he mumbled

I smiled and slipped off the bed, "Great! I'll be right back!" I left the room, Edd still on the phone with Tord.
