It had now been over a week since Tom didn't get a single sign of life from Tord's family...He couldn't help but consider the worst things ever ..make the weirdest scenarios and think about the most absurd reasons of they they wouldn't be here ..

As time went by Tom didn't try to get in contact at all ..Maybe he should've tried to call or even just send a Message ..? Thomas felt quite stupid for not thinking about it earlier as he grabbed his phone ..

"Once again Thomas you mind acts like the idiot you are .."

Tom never had low esteem unlike Tord ..But he had a TON of irony to let loose and let the world know about . He was a sarcastic little boy who doesn't want to grow up yet ..

Just someone who needed a friend ..
A friend who would stay with him forever ..But Tom knew theses doesn't exist...not even Tord.. He would eventually get tired Someday and would leave ..which , to Tom , wouldn't be surprising at all..

As he snapped back to reality he clicked on Tord's contact profile and messaged him...

"Hey TOrd..! I haven't heard from you or your parents in a while so I wanted to check if everything was okay.!"

Thomas read and read and read the message over and over ..he wanted it to be perfect ...
Perfect for TOrd.

*Message Sent : 9 PM.*

Tom panicked ..what if TOrd was not okay..? What if his message was too straight forward..? No..! He would just have to wait and see for himself ...The tall Male though it was time to get to his homework before he gets too sleepy to hold a pen .

A few hours passed as it was now 1 AM.. Tom was exhausted ..but relieved that his due work was over and only his bed was waiting for him..As he got up from his chair and walked to his bed , he let his body meet the warm and fluffy blanket ..After not even a few minutes , Thomas was already gone in the world of dreams .

The next morning, it was now Thursday..and Tom Hated this day. He genuinely did...Thursday is the day when these guys would sit at The Table . The table that Tom and TOrd would sit at everyday..except this day...this Thursday...And when either Tom or TOrd would get too close , it would end up with blood dripping down someone's nose or mouth ..

God he hated Thursdays .
But he got back to reality when he heard his phone buzzing under his pillow ..Tom lazily picked it up and saw a notification from ..TOrd.!?
Tom clicked so fast and hard he could've broken his phone screen if he didn't care about it that much

*1 Unread Message*

Tom was so relived ..TOrd was alive and that was all that mattered ...! Tom opened the message to be greeted with a message ..

"hello Thomas! I am so sorry for not telling you about anything I wasn't at home for the whole week.."

"Whaaaa..? Why not ? Didn't even see you at school ! Is everything okay?"

"yeah Don't worry about me ..! I'm coming back today! Can't wait to see you again !"

"me too TOrd..! "

"see ya later today!
"

"Wait TOrd..! About that thing that happened in the greenhouse ..you know the..the kiss.. "

*Tord has left the conversation."

Great..Now things were going to be awkward at school..or maybe he didn't see the message ...Yeah it's most likely that...Tom put on his usual clothes that he DOES in fact washes everyday..he just doesn't feel like wearing anything else than the clothes His parents bought him for his birthday.

He grabbed his phone , his backpack as well as a little necklace that he simply put in his pocket. Didn't seem like the necklace had no meaning to him but maybe was intended to be hidden from someone or something.

Tom walked to his usual bus stop...But he knew TOrd would most likely not be there he was maybe still weak from what had happened as probably would come to school with his parents . Which would be kinda pleasing to Tom ..He really liked the joy sparking from Tord's dads just how loving and kind they were ...!

"I can't wait to see TOrd today...! I have so many things to tell him..! Perhaps..I could try and ask him to be my boyfriend .. "

Tom was thrilled for once ...his day could t be possibly ruined by anything..! Not even those jerks at the lunch table..! Tom had butterflies in hi stomach ...he felt so helpless...Helplessly in love ..

As he finally got the the School, he decided to wait for his friend to arrive and surprise him with his special gift ..! Tom's heart was racing in his chest , smile was stuck to his face as he saw the car with a familiar face inside .. Tom gasped in joy

"It's TOrd..!"

Tom waited for the car to park in front of the school..Tom Would hug TOrd so tightly ...so much..he would hug him ..and maybe just maybe ask him to be his..

TOrd got out from the car by the help of his parents but as his head popped out of the car, Tom's eyes widened ..One, by the fact that TOrd was wearing new clothes that Tom Never Saw before ..He was wearing black ripped jeans  as well as a white dress shirt under a Yellow oversized sweater , all of that, always with his white sneakers .. and TWO, because of this weird transparent tube hanging from his nose that wasn't a good sign for Tom..

TOrd finally got out , getting out of the car a black Backpack where the tube seemed to End his travel of Tord's body . Tom was surprised but seeing that his friend was okay mattered much more than this weird dangling tube! Perhaps , TOrd looked happy and okay!

"Thomas..! I missed you so much...!"

The short Norski ran to Tom as he took him in a big hug embracing him tightly ...Tom, quite surprised , blushed before hugging back resting his chin on the top of Tord's head ...Pau and Pat watching from a distance already knew that things weren't going to end well..

"Tom..I need to talk to you about something...it's very important.."

Tom intrigued , decided to go somewhere more private ...even though the school was almost empty due to the fact that summer break was only a few days away ...Tom dragged him in the bathroom and held Tord's hand ..

"so..What is it Tordie ..?"

TOrd gulped ..the words were like stuck in his throat..wanting to get out..so badly..but never could ..Finally words came out..

"I can't be your boyfriend Thomas..."

Tom's eyes widened as tears were begging to fall down his cheeks...but he wanted to stay strong ..he really wanted to ..all that would come out of his mouth ..was a soft whisper. .

"w-why..?"

TOrd begun to sob as he wiped the tears that were falling from his right eye ...His heart was aching..He loved Tom so dearly but...something was bothering him..making his love for Thomas being overwhelmed...by all the pain TOrd had ...

"I am sick Thomas ...really sick..i fucked up i really did ..and I should've listened to you ...i should've been more careful and look where I am now .."

Tom had more than enough... TOrd was standing in front of him he needed his presence in his life ..His heart was about to explode ..he wanted TOrd to be his boyfriend ...He loved him so dearly...

"Why..? Tord Please..Tell me what's happening ..I'm tired of being unaware of what's going on..."

TOrd looked down as Thomas could see tears falling down the Norski's face and ending their fall onto the cold floor ..He was definitely crying as well..Tom didn't like seeing TOrd cry... it would break his heart...

"I am in Terminal Phase of Lung Cancer .. Lung Carcinoma to be exact ..I will soon not be able to be part of this world .."

Tom's tears were finally let loose as they dashed down his cheeks... he had the urge to run away..he didn't care where ..he didn't Care why... but instead he hugged TOrd tightly crying in his Beanie absorbing all the tears..

"TOrd we will get through this together...I promise ...Please..Tord Yerson..Will you be my Boyfriend..? "

TOrd sniffed shoving his head in Tom's Torso crying as well ..His heart was beating so quickly ..he felt like it was going to escape his body at any moment .....His mouth was trembling as he managed to say a few words. Almost impossible to hear...

"I-I do...."
