Todd Hewitt:
His Noise goes quieter than normal
Just soft whispers
Be a man, Todd. Be a man.
Manchee is curled up next to him, head drooped on his paws. Small whimpers escape the dog as Todd hugs his knees closer to his chest.
When you return from cleaning off your face in the lake, he spots you before you see him.
YN. YN YN YN.
It’s so quiet you just think it’s the wind rustling the trees as you organize your bag in the clearing you and Todd have found, located deep in the center of the woods.
Man up, Todd. Don’t let her see you like this. Be a man. Be a man.
His Noise is still so quiet, barely noticeable until he stands up and wipes his face, approaching you. “I’m gonna go hunting, I’ll be right back.”
When you turn to him he’s already walking away, leaving a sniffle in his wake. Worry strikes your heart.
“Todd?”
He only hums, not stopping in his tracks. The thoughts around his head start to grow and pound.
“Todd!”
“What?” he shouts, turning back with blazing eyes. Your shocked face gets imprinted in his thoughts, playing your reaction on repeat surrounded by look what you did-you’re an idiot-you hurt her-you scared her-she hates you.
“No, Todd, you didn’t-” you try to find the right words to not scare him off, holding out your hands reassuringly as you take in his regretful face, “I’m not- Todd!”
But he’s already run off, leaving a trail of Noise in his wake. She hates me.
Manchee barks, preparing to go after him with you on his tail, but you quickly call him back and stay near your campsite.
“He just needs time, boy,” you nuzzle his head, eyes locked on the direction Todd ran in. “He just needs time.”
The sky is gray and a light drizzle has soaked into the forest when Todd returns. Droplets splash against his bare skin and chill him to the bone as he pushes through brush and branches to reach the clearing.
He can see you through it all, leaning against a tree trunk and only half giving in to the sleep that tries to overtake you, but the sounds of his return urge you awake.
“Todd,” you whisper, eyes wide as you sit up straight. “You’re back.”
“Yeah.” Missed her. Missed YN. Thank God I found my way back.
“What…” you slump back, “what happened?”
His lips stay sewn shut as his Noise speaks for him.
I miss them. Pictures of his old family, two men he’s told you about before but you’ve never seen until now, flash like a video.
His mind runs wild replaying memories upon memories. When the tears start to fall again is when he gets angry at himself. Dammit, Todd. Men don’t cry, suck it up-
“Todd.” Your voice interrupts his thoughts and he zones back in on you. You hold your arms out, face gentle and reassuring as you nod for him to come closer. “Come here.”
His gaze trails to your form. Warm. Soft. Nice. Want it. Want her.
His lips open and close, searching for some sort of excuse. But he doesn’t have one, thankfully. He crosses the distance between the two of you, lips pursing as he lowers himself to the ground and in between your arms. On his knees between your legs, he waits until your arms embrace him before he engulfs you, his face pressing into your shoulder as he wraps around your midsection.
Tears began to dampen your shoulder, more so than the rain that now poured on you both. You ran a hand through Todd’s hair, holding him closer the more rampant his thoughts ran.
“Shh, it’s okay. I’m here for you.”
She’s here for me.
“You don’t have to act all strong right now. Just relax.”
Minutes passed with Todd wound around you, his hands curling tighter into fists in the back of your shirt every time you brushed your fingers through his tufts.
Feels so nice. I don’t wanna leave. Wanna stay like this forever. Always stay here with her. Always happy. Happy. Never wanna stop.
And so you granted his wish, holding him closer and tighter as his Noise mumbled sweet nothings in your ear.
