(TW! Mention of blood and killing somewhere in the story! Please read cautiously if you're sensitive to this stuff!)

Tord sat up on the hospital bed, sighing, he knew it was a bad idea going out of the house in the middle of the night, he gripped on his hospital gown, starting to tear up when a nurse came in, he snapped out of his thoughts.

-------

That night, when Tord couldn't fall asleep, he sighed and got up to his room, grabbing his jeans, hoodie, and shoes, he put them on and sighed "I'll just take a walk to calm myself down.." he mumbled. Tord sighed and passed his room, hearing his drunken snores, he sighed and went outside, he should've payed attention to the news when he had to huh.

The thing is, a serial killer escaped from prison, the news spread quickly like wildfire, which caused everyone to close all their doors and windows, locking it, staying inside.

But our Tordle didn't hear or pay attention to anything that the news said.

Tord was walking by the forest river, tensing up when he heard a bush move, he quickly whipped his head around along with his body, only to see a figure launching at him with a knife, stabbing his already injured arm multiple times as Tord tried to scream. Tord passed out of blood loss, he was thrown out on the river.

The next thing he knew, he woke up at the hospital.

-----------

And that brings us back here, Tord looked at the nurse "W-why? A-Am I H-Here?" He quietly mumbled. The nurse looked at him "You're at the hospital sir" she smiled and called a doctor in.

Edd and Matt went in the room with a worried and panicked expression, Edd put Ringo in the pet carrier and immediately rushed to Tord's side "T-Tord! A-are you okay?!" He held Tord's hand, Tord looked at him "H-Hey Edd" he smiled a bit. The doctor told everything to Edd and Matt.

Apparently Tord hit his head when he was pushed down, they still didn't know what the effect was, Edd listened, holding his best friend's hand tight, Matt sat down with Ringo as he listened.

Tom reached the hospital, he went to Tord's room, panting heavily, he looked at all of them and smiled a bit when he saw Tord was alright, he went over to him and gently held his hand.

Tord looked at him in confusion, gently tugging his hand away from him, he moved closer to Edd's side "W-Who are you...?"

Even though I am tempted in placing a cliffhanger here, I'm not that cliché, trust me, this has been done so many times.

Everyone's eyes widened, Edd, the doctor and Tom let out a gasp. Tom teared up "Baby- I-It's m-me..?" He mumbled, looking at Tord desperately. Edd sighed and looked at Tord "Hey, you gotta remember him...right..?" He mumbled.

Tord looked at him and shook his head "I-I'm sorry..B-But I d-don't k-know him.." Tord mumbled quietly. Tom sighed and stood up "...This was my fault anyway.." he paused and forced himself to smile "I'm sorry.." he mumbled "I should probably get going..back to the house..I don't wanna bother him.." he mumbled and clenched his fists, forcing a smile as he tried not to cry.

The doctor sighed and held Tom by the arm "Alright, everyone, out except for him" he ordered, Edd nodded and let go of Tord's hand, Matt stood up and held the pet carrier, going over to Edd and helping him up. Tom looked at the doctor "..What are you planning to do..?" He mumbled.

The nurse escorted Edd and Matt out to the waiting area. The doctor sighed "Try and talk to him to see if you can get his memory back" he mumbled and let go of Tom, getting out of the room. Tord sighed and watched, nervously fiddling with his fingers. Tom sighed and got a plastic chair, sitting near Tord's bed "Tord.." he mumbled.

Tord looked at him with a worried expression "..Yes..?" He mumbled, Tom sighed and buried his face on his hands "..I'm sorry..I'm, I'm so sorry for everything I've done to you..I-I wanted to t-take revenge but..I-I ended up hurting both of us..badly.." he mumbled.

Tord sighed and sat up, not knowing what to say. Tom looked at him and forced another smile "...You don't have to forgive me..you probably forgot everything you told me..how much you love me..how much you care for me..how much you'll never leave me.." he paused and gently held Tord's hand "..But I threw it away..I just tossed it like it was nothing.." he started to cry "..I-I'm so..S-sorry..I.." he paused started to cry, gently squeezing Tord's hand.

Tord looked at him, hearing these made him realize something "..T-Tom..?" He mumbled, now having a flood of memories. Tom smiled a bit "..Yes..? Dear..I'm so so sorry..if we ever get past this together..I-I promise I'll t-treat you right.." he squeezed Tord's hand. Tord let out a sigh and pulled him in for a hug.

Tord sighed and held him close. Tom hugged back, crying onto his shoulder, holding him tight, continuing to mutter apologies under his breath. Tord gently rubbed his back "Shh..Tommy..We're fine now..alright..?"
