Hurt comfort :)

꒰ 🥥 ꒱ؘ ࿐ ࿔*:･ﾟ

Tubbo was laid down on a soft mattress, not even bothering to cover up his shivering body with a blanket.

It has been about an hour and a half since it happened. The brunette never knew that him and Tommy were ever capable of saying those things, especially shouting them into each other's faces. He couldn't even remember how the fight started, he only knew that it escalated pretty bad and it ended up in them shouting at each other, and it was only a matter of time until one of them would say something very hurtful. To no one's surprise, it was the taller who let a regretful sentence slip from his lips. A regretful sentence that completely sent the brunette into a state of shock. He still remember the hurtful words, as they slowly burned into his pale, fragile skin.

"TUBBO YOU NEVER EVEN CARED ABOUT ME!" Shouted the very angered blonde, looking at his best friend who was stood in front of him. They had started an argument over god knows what, and it has only gotten worse. They were currently in front of Tommy's house, God they couldn't even remember why they were there in the first place. Surely it wasn't so they could shout and blame each other, yet there they were. Two best friends engulfed in rage, sadness and confusion, none of them knowing what caused it and how to stop it.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN I NEVER CARED FOR YOU?! I-" "I MEAN EXACTLY WHAT I SAID! IF YOU EVER CARED YOU WOULD HAVE NEVER FUCKING EXILED ME!" They shouted back and forth.

"TOMMY THAT WAS TWO MONTHS AGO! TWO MONTHS! I THOUGHT WE WENT OVER THAT!" Screamed Tubbo back at the blonde in defense. Tommy only seemed to get angrier and angrier. "WE COULD HAVE TAKEN HIM DOWN! WE COULD'VE HAD THE DISCS, AND EVERYTHING WOULD'VE BEEN FINE! MAYBE L'MANBURG WOULD HAVE STILL BEEN STANDING!" Shouted the blonde, defending himself as well. Tubbo hated when someone brought up 'what ifs' when it came to L'Manburg. It only reminded him of how shitty of a president he was. "WE WOULD'VE BEEN TRAPPED, TOMMY! I ONLY TRIED TO SAVE OUR NATION!" He hoped that he was being reasonable, but Tommy wasn't buying it. "YEAH? Well your effort did complete Jack shit, Tubbo, because if I look around, I can only see a fucking crater. How's that for protecting your nation, huh?" Said Tommy, his tone calming down but the venom never leaving his mouth. The brunette clenched his fists. There it was. Tommy pulled out the 'you're a shitty president' card against him.

"Yeah, well...things would have been fine if you stuck to your position and like...I don't know...maybe not have burned someone's house down? I think that was quite a dick move from you.." Said Tubbo, his voice also toning down down, knowing his throat would've gone completely sore if he kept on shouting. Tommy's eyes were burning. "Oh, don't you try and play victim here." Scoffed Tommy, crossing his arms. "I'm not..I'm just pointing out a shitty mistake-" "NO! Giving you presidency was a shitty mistake!" Said Tommy glaring daggers at Tubbo.

"Oh really?! I think not exiling you would've been a shitty mistake! At least I saved myself some trouble by doing it!" That was a complete lie. Tubbo knew very well how hard it had been during Tommy's exile. If there was one thing he regretted the most, was turning his back on his best friend right there, but for the sake of argument he couldn't let the regret show. Meanwhile Tommy's blood was boiling. He has had it. The brunette had no idea about how much trauma and suffering he went through in his exile, and so, he let his anger take over. Maybe that was the actual shitty mistake. "yoU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT HOW MUCH SHIT I HAD TO GO THROUGH IN THAT HELL OF A PLACE, SO LISTEN. IF YOU'RE GONE CHATTER AWAY ABOUT HOW YOU DON'T REGRET EXILING ME, THEN HONESTLY, FUCK YOU! DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES I THOUGHT ABOUT ENDING IT ALL?! I COME BACK ONLY TO LISTEN TO YOU SAYING YOU DON'T REGRET EXILING ME! YOU CALL ME A SHITTY FRIEND?!" Tommy has completely snapped, and the shorter stood in place, completely loss of words.

"YOU THINK YOU'RE SO FLAWLESS AND INNOCENT AND SHIT WHILE YOU'RE A COMPLETE TYRANT! NO WONDER YOUR PARENTS LEFT YOU ON THE SIDE OF A ROAD!" Tommy's voice echoed through the whole land, finally a sob escaping Tubbo's mouth. After a few seconds, the blonde clasped a hand over his mouth, his eyes widening and fully registering what he had just said. "Tubbo I-" The taller extended his arms towards the sobbing boy who only flinched. "N-no! Save it!" Was all he said before he spun around and ran away.

Tommy has never regretted and wished to take back his words as much as he did now. Why did he say that? I'm so sorry Tubbo...

After an hour and a half, Tommy finally gained the courage to look for his - hopefully still - best friend. At first, his search came to no avail, but after walking down the prime path, he noticed a small shaky figure laying on a mattress inside the remains of the brunette's old house that has been set aflame at least twice. The blonde took a closer look, and it was no other than Tubbo. A part of him was relived, while the other was filling with anxiety. The sun has already set, the place only being illuminated with a few somehow still not destroyed lamps that Tommy put up what felt like ages ago.

He took a deep breath, and began walking over to the poorly lit property. He could hear Tubbo's soft sobs, and he instantly felt terrible for breaking his friend like that.

"Tubbo?" The brunette froze for a second, not knowing whether the blonde was the one he wished to talk to at the moment. He ended up not replying, and pulling himself even closer, becoming even smaller - if that was possible. Tommy only let out a small sigh, and climbed in the bed with him. Some people would think of it as a weird gesture, but the two boys were always comfortable with sharing a bed, being huge cuddlers and never thought romantically of each other. That of course, if that was still the case now, and Tommy was afraid it wasn't, and that he'd be pushed away because of the fight. He waited for about a minute, wanting to see of Tubbo was gonna do something, but he laid still. The younger slowly and carefully slid his arms around Tubbo's waist, waiting if he was going to be pushed away. But he wasn't, and so, he pulled the shorter close to him, his back pressed against Tommy's stomach. Tubbo only closed his eyes, either to tired to fight or he just missed his best friend. The blonde planted a small kiss in the other's long-ish hair, holding him close.

"I'm so sorry.."

A small pause stood in between them until Tubbo replied with a small, tired voice.

"It's okay."
