"Well you sleep like a rock."
I heard a familiar voice at the door, opening one eye to see Tubbo standing there casually.

He wore an oversized green flannel, an off-white collared button down shirt, and dark blue ripped jeans. His fluffy brown hair a mess.

"You are here so early.."
I groan, sitting up.
"What time is it?"

"Ten. I'm not early at all."
Tubbo walked in, standing at the edge of my bed, looking down into my tired eyes.
"I can go so you can sleep longer if you want."

"N-No! I'm okay! I'll get dressed and be downstairs in five."
I scramble to my feet, though I stood up too fast and the world spun.

I felt Tubbo's hand snake around my waist, and when the world stopped spinning, I found how close were were. My stomach fluttering a bit as he brushed a piece of hair from my face, tucking it behind my ear.

"Caught ya. Now get dressed, I'll be downstairs waiting."
He slowly released me, and I watched as he left the room, closing the door behind him. How was he not embarrassed?

I shifted my mind to what I was going to wear today, my body still stuff from the closeness we had just encountered. Tubbo is different, I'll give him that. Grammy may be right, I may fall, but to be completely honest...

I don't want to.

---

I decided to wear a pair of light wash jean-shorts. An oversized short sleeve blue shirt with a small white flower on the right. I slipped on my white AF1s and went to meet Tubbo downstairs at the door, my hair was still a mess.

"Dear please brush your hair."
Grammy was the first to speak up.

"Grammy.."
I croak,

Tubbo chuckled, offering me his hand,
"I'll brush your hair if you don't want to, I know how to braid as well because of my sisters."

I took Tubbo's hand and nod, guiding him to a nearby bathroom with one of my many hairbrushes laid about it.
I hand him a brush and he gently worked it through the knots in my hair. He must really love his sisters, he works like he has done this for a long time.

"You are really gentle unlike my grandma and mother.."
I smile at Tubbo behind me from the mirror.

"I wouldn't want to hurt you."
He smiled sweetly back and my heart fluttered,

I couldn't read him, his words full of honey and yet it wasn't hard for him to get out. Is he not thinking of his words?

"I'm glad."
I some shyly, watching him begin to braid my hair, he left out some loose strands around my face.

"Let's get going. I am hoping to get to this one place by sunset but until then we can go to different shops and such."
Tubbo took my hand, pulling me out the door swiftly and we were well on our way to begin our adventures together.

He took me to get ice cream, we walked through a few parks, each one having a different layout and view. One had a huge fountain in the center of it, we watched young kids splash about it, sending the small coins about it.

"When I was young I threw pennies into the fountains, but we could never play in them, that was illegal."
I spoke to Tubbo sitting next to me on a bench overlooking the happy young children.

"Tommy and I played in this fountain a lot when we were super young, Mother dearest didn't like when we would come back to the house drenched, but she would never tell us not to play in the fountain because we were kids and our happiness was the world."
He reminisced.

"Wow..I wish my mother would have let me do more. You make me feel like I hadn't lived."
I smile sadly at the side of his face

"Well, you are living now."

He turned his head to me, standing up and taking my right hand into his. His eyes sparkled in youth as he pulled me towards the fountain, we left our bags and food on the bench behind us.

Tubbo kicked off his shoes, stepping into the water first. I looked at him like he was crazy and he began to laugh.

"Come on May~"

Sweet like honey.

It made sense a boy like him likes honey.

And he likes bees like him back because of it.

I kicked off my shoes too, stepping into the pond with him, the younger children smiled happily at us, splashing little waves onto our clothes.

Tubbo..you look so happy..

I wish this happiness of yours never fades as long as you live.

"May! Attack!"
He smirked, splashing back carefully at the younger's.

I nod, splashing the kids with him, and we were all soaked by the end of our battle.

"That was so fun! Did you enjoy yourself May?"
Tubbo draped a grey towel around me as we sat at the beach during sunset. He bought those towels at a convenience store on our way.

"Yes I had a lot of fun. Thank you for Today Tubbo."
I looked into the warm colors of the sunset ahead of us.

I felt Tubbo's arm press against mine, then I felt his head on my shoulder and fluffy brown hair on the side of my neck.

I turned my eyes down to him, his warm skin was golden in the sunset, his eyes fluttered shut, and his smile remained on his lips as the sunset continued.
