Losing you

'Us'

Tord's POV
My eyes are opening slowly. Vision blurred, and I can't really hear anything. The only thing I can do right now is feel. And what I feel is someone's hand placed on top of mine. My sight comes back, but not my hearing. I see Pau and pat, and my three friends. Their mouths were moving but I just can't hear them. Why? What happened to me? I look over to see whose hand is on top of mine. It was Tom's. The person I least expected to have their hand on me. Out of no where, my hearing comes back.
"Red, can you hear us???" I hear Pat say.
"I can hear you now. The rest of the time I was awake today, no. What happened?"
"We won against the rebels trying to destroy the base. You got shot in your arm and shoulder, losing a lot of blood in the proses, and fainted." Says Pau.
All came crashing down on me as the memories came back of the fight. My eyes widen. I look to my left to see my arm bandaged where the bullet hit. I could see some of the blood going through the bandages. I could feel the pain from both shots. And the calf. But they weren't sharp pain, they were dull.
"How long was I out?"
"Five days. These three came to visit you everyday." Says Pau pointing his thumb at the three. Making Edd smile and nod and Tom scratch the back of his neck in embarrassment. Making me chuckle. But then I re-think the first sentence.
"Wait. FIVE days?! What was the reason for that?!"
"If you were to wake up, then you will be in intense pain in your arm and shoulder. And you will not be allowed to move them."
"That doesn't explain wh- you know what. Nevermind. What I want to know is how many of us are injured and...... dead."
"137 were injured and um.... how many died was 94. Overall damage was $53,000." Says Pat careful with his words.
"Oh my god. That's above the normal death rate in our army." I say quietly. Looking down. I feel Tom's hand try to squeeze my robotic hand making me look towards my hand.
"You can feel that?!" Says Tom pulling his hand off of mine only to be stopped by me grabbing his hand.
"I think we should leave those two alone for now." Says Pat quietly to the others. I hear their footsteps become fainter until they close the door. Leaving me and Tom alone in the room.
"First thing, yes. I can feel through my robotic arm. I was able to connect My nerves to some special wire that I invented. Second thing, Thomas, your scared of me. I can see it clearly coming off of you. I am not trying to hurt you. I'm trying to be friends again. Maybe even more than friends." I say the last sentence quietly.
Tom's eyebrows go up from hearing the first sentence. But then go down and his lack of eyes narrow. But not in a annoyed way.
"That's interesting that you were able to do that." I see him inhale and exhale.
"I..... am scared of you. I mean... your the leader of a very strong army! But there's something else also."
"Something else? What do you mean Thomas?"
"I.... um... well. I like you?" His voice goes a bit higher as he reached the end of his sentence. I see a small blush form on his cheeks.
"Thomas, spill it out. I know you were lying in that sentence."
"I-I have a crush o-on you!" Tom blurts out. I blink multiple times as a blush escapes onto my cheeks. I sigh and say,
"Thomas, can you come closer?"
I see Tom hesitate before coming closer but does as told. I smile, and grab him with my robotic arm to his collar making him yelp in surprise and force him down so that our lips connected. He was now completely red making me grin through the kiss. He finally kisses back closing his eyes. It felt like the world stopped, and everything was focused on me and Tom, kissing. His lips were chapped, but still somehow soft. It felt nice to have someone love you romantically. I shouldn't get my hopes up too high. But all good things must come to an end as I feel his lips take theirselves off from mine.
"I.... like you in the romantic way too Thomas." I say quietly.
"Oh my god. I can't believe you would even think of having me as your crush! But why? Why did you pick me?" He seemed to be a bit freaked out. He probably couldn't believe he was able to kiss and dangerous army leader. Heh.
"Your unique in personality and how you look. You have a good side, which comes out rarely. Like a flower that blooms once in a year but dies a week later. And you have a bad side, that is out for the remainder of the time. Your eyes, are unique. I don't think anyone could have eyes like yours again."
We hear giggling from the other side of the door.
"Edd! I know that's you!" Yells Tom with his blush somehow becoming even redder, making me laugh as well.
"A-aren't you embarrassed by this?!" Says Tom in disbelief.
"N-no! I just love your reaction to that! And they would find out at some point so it doesn't really matter if we hide it or not!" I say between laughs.
I hear the door creak open to see the others smiling at us. Even Matt was looking at us for once. They slowly come back in.
"So.... Tom..... seems like your wish came true." Says Edd wiggling his eyebrows.
"Oh shut up!" He shoots back. Playfully punches Edd's arm lightly.
I purposely clear my throat loudly to get the others attention.
"So. Um Tord..... what would you call... 'us'?" Tom says slowly.
"Whatever you want 'us' to be." I say smiling.
"B-boyfriends?" He stutters. How cute. My eyes narrow in a calm way as I say,
"That..... would be nice."
