Chapter 7 - A Night In Florence
[Tom's Point Of View]
I hadn't expected to spend my date on an almost 3 hour long trip on a plane with Tord. Leaning back on the seats in the jet, I looked at Tord.
"So... Where are we going?"
Tord only grinned, placing a finger up to his lips. "That's a secret my sweet~" I sighed softly, rolling my eyes. "I figured as much~" I cooed, leaning my head on my hand. Tord bit his lip softly, looking at me.
"Are you hungry? Thirsty?"
I paused for a moment, scrunching up my nose. "No, not really. But, I am a little tired..." I mumbled, rubbing my forehead. Tord smiled softly, pulling me towards him. I let out a soft squeak, earning a chuckle from Tord.
"Rest min kjærlighet, I'll wake you up when we're at our destination." Nodding, I pressed myself against Tord, falling asleep.
--------------------------------------------------------
I felt Tord nudge me gently, causing me to slowly wake up. "Mmngh, are we there?"
Tord nodded, kissing my head softly. "Yes, love." I felt my face flush in embarrassment but decided not to say anything as I scooted away from him. I could hear a sigh of disappointment, but I didn't care.
Stepping out of the plane with Tord, I looked at him again.
"Now will you tell me where we are?" I asked pleadingly. Tord nodded, grinning. "We're in Florence Italy." Tord chuckled kissing the side of my face. I blushed softly, looking away as I began to spread distance between us. "Uh, s-shall we...?"
Tord nodded, before leading the way.
I felt my face flush, right now I was walking down the streets of Florence Italy with THE Red Leader. I looked around in awe seeing the street lights lighting up the town just right. It was just beautiful. Pulling me towards a restaurant, Tord smile.
"C'mon, we're eating here... I already made reservations for us." He cooed gently, giving me a look that melted me on the inside. Walking into the restaurant with Tord, I couldn't help but curl up next to him.
He held a brief dialogue with our Waiter before we were lead to the roof for a secret date. I blushed softly, staring up at the sky in awe as I saw the scenery.
There were lanterns strung up above us, setting a romantic mood. The stars swirled above us, making me feel... Tingly on the inside. I felt Tord place his hand on mine, as shivers were sent down my spine.
"Do you like it?" Tord asked softly, his face flushing with embarrassment. I smiled softly, nodding "It's beautiful..." I whispered gently, looking away embarrassed. When I looked back at Tord, he was blushing brightly with an enchanted look on his face. The way he looked at me sent shivers down my spine.
He had dome this all for me, so it was only fair if I gave him SOME affection... I kissed him on his cheek softly, before taking a seat.
Tord seemed to be in a daze, before sitting across from me. "So, um, what do you want to eat?" Tord asked gently, his cheeks flushing. I bit my lip, thinking for a moment. "Want to split pasta?" I asked grinning at him. Tord nodded, with a soft smirk. "Sure."
When the waiter came over, Tord ordered us a pasta and some fancy wine I've never heard of. While we waited for our food to come over, Tord looked at me and cleared his throat.
"So, Tom, how have you been these... past years?"
I paused a moment, biting my lip softly.
"I..."
Tord's expression slowly faded into a sorrowful and pained expression.
"O-Oh..."
In all honesty, these past years had been absolute hell. After Tord's betrayal, I had spiralled into a terrible alcoholic. Waking up in the middle of nowhere had become normal for me. I was very hostile, I didn't trust anymore. I was scared, scared that I would get hurt. I bit my lip, holding my breath.
"It's..." I released my breath, clenching my fist slightly. Tord noticed I was on the verge of crying as he got out of his chair to pull me in close. Burying my face into his shoulder, I cried softly.
"T-Tom I'm so sorry... I didn't mean to hurt you, I was so wrapped up in my quest for power I hurt you guys. I'm so so sorry..."
Tord whispered into my ear, kissing my forehead. I kept on weeping, burying my face into Tord's chest.
I heard Tord mumble something over to the waiter, returning his gaze back to me. Tord didn't say anything at this point. In fact, all he did was hold me close and let me know that everything was gonna be okay. After a solid 30 minutes, I pulled away and breathed a heavy breath.
"I-I'm better now..."
I whispered softly, nudging away. Tord nodded, before kissing me softly on the cheek. I felt my face flush, before looking at the food.
"L- let's eat...." I mumbled softly, twiddling my thumbs.
"Selvfølgelig, kjære(Of course darling)." Tord nodded, going to the other side of me. I wasn't sure what that meant but assumed he was agreeing with me.
We began to eat and discussed happier subjects such as childhood memories or our adventures. At one point, we both found ourselves connected by the same noodle. However, before Tord could lean in close, I pulled away and grinned. Tord chuckled, blushing.
"So innocent~" He cooed, rubbing my chin. I blushed pulling away. Tord of course, grinning, even more, seeing this as another opening to poke fun. "But you do have a very naughty side, Tom,~" He cooed, making a kissy face. I quickly covered my face in embarrassment.
"Oh fuck off ya commie bitch~"
"Don't worry Tom, that's what I plan on doing to you tonight~" He chuckled deviously, winking. I full on turned red, feeling a whistling in my ears. Tord motioned for the waiter to come over, asking for the tab.
Paying for our dinner, Tord grabbed my hand and lead me out. We began walking down, exploring the town during the night. Tord suddenly jerked me forward, and just like that we were running under the night light like young teenagers. I felt my heart pound and flutter with excitement.
After exploring around the town, I finally stopped. "T-Tord, I'm a bit tired... can we go back now?" I asked, panting a bit. Tord looked at me, biting his lip with a seductive glare as he nodded.
"Yes... I have a place already for us..."
Nodding, I smiled and left with Tord to our get-away home. Little did I know, this night would be a night that would possibly change my life forever...
