(this is a true story that my friend told me at school.)

Tord's P.O.V

When I just moved from Norway to England because of.. business stuff. I immediately made a friend, his name was Thomas Ridgewall and he was my neighbor. He was very nice to me, after that day we became the best of friends. We both lived alone and we have a lot in common so.. why not be friends?

When school came we would always go together, eat together, heck even cut classes together. Even our grades were almost the same.

Every night we would play games at his house and sometimes we go to his garage and play as a duo.

I play the drums and he plays the base with his beautiful voice. I loved how his hair would stick up into spikes, I love his piercing, I loved his soft tanned skin, his soft looking lips, I love his black eyes. Pretty much everything about him is just perfect for me.

Before I even realized it. I fell in love with him. I would always find myself hugging him in random moments. I would make fun of how short he was in front of our other classmates to show them that Thomas belongs to me.

Not until..

One night in particular... He invited me for dinner in such short notice. Nonetheless I agreed. And that night.. I decided that I should confess to him about my feelings.. hoping I'll get a chance. Before I went to his house, I brought flowers and chocolates as a surprise.

But I was taken back when I saw a man walking up to his porch with a large bouquet of flowers. I watched from the distance as Thomas opened the door and tackled him in for a hug. They shared a tender kiss..

it broke my heart.

I waited for a couple of minutes before going over to his house.. without the flowers and chocolates I brought. Thomas greeted me with a hug and introduced the young man in a green jacket.

"Tord! This is my boyfriend! Edward gold! Edd for short!"

He said happily as I shake the guy's hand with a fake smile,

"It's nice to meet you, Edd! The name's Tord! Thomas's babysitter."

I joked. We three shared a laugh together and continued with our dinner. They happily told me about how they met and how they decided to be together. I say there and watched them hold hands and smile at each other tenderly.

I was heartbroken and devastated of what I was seeing but I kept my smile on, when I saw Thomas smiled widely in Edd's arms. It took me back and made me think... I really have no chance.

It went on for two years where they dated and I still kept my mouth shut. Not wanting to destroy their relationship because Thomas seemed happy with Edd. Thomas would always come over at my house and tell stories about him and Edd while I pretended to listen happily.

When deep inside, I was just loving the view of how his two black eyes started to sparkle and how his smile grew from ear to ear. I know I wasn't the one giving him the smile... But somehow.. I have learn to accept it.

Until one day.. As Thomas and I was walking through the park, we saw Edd with a girl. He was smiling and putting his arms around her.. not knowing Thomas was breaking.
