❝ Y'know they say that a man who chops his own wood gets warm twice. ❞ Thomas commented as a notion before swinging the axe again, chips of wood flying as the axe collided with the side of the tree. Eddie swatted a bead of sweat from his forehead before he swung his own axe on the other side of the tree, silent momentarily before commenting, ❝ I feel that, brother. ❞
❝ Yeah, and they - ❛they❜ as in ❛I❜ - also say that men who don't listen to their brothers will never recover, you stupid prick. ❞ He chose to point out matter-of-factly, lowering his arms to his side as he stared at Eddie who refused to look up at his older brother. ❝ I told you to stop working and get into the warm. That chest infection ain't gonna like all this cold out here, nor you overexerting yourself when I can do this just fine by myself. ❞
Eddie sighed, shaking his head to himself slowly before a sudden coughing fit had him spluttering all over again, as if his body was taking Tommy's side. ❝ See- ❞
❝ All right. ❞ Eddie tossed his axe to the ground beside the tree, rubbing his gloved hands together as he took a couple steps back before fishing in his coat pocket for a cigarette. ❝ I'm sticking around for a smoke, and then I'll go inside. ❞ Ed confirmed, grabbing his lighter.
❝ You shouldn't be smoking either with that bad chest of yours. ❞ Tom added in a somewhat softer tone, looking over at his brother. Sure, Tommy was abrasive and loud, often talking far too much and far too brashly, but he cared about his brother immensely. Eddie could see the worry in Tom's face as eyes peered up from where he had tipped his head down for the lighter to meet cigarette, free hand cupped to stop the gentle breeze from interfering.
Tom sighed before continuing to chop the tree, Ed inhaling a short breath of his cigarette as he looked away, breathing a soft plume into the air. He was far too stubborn for his own good.
