Chapter 8

"Ok, so I don't have much planned for the bucket list but I know for a fact that I want to learn how to do a backflip," the taller boy says. "That sounds so fun."

"Did you know that I actually know how to do a one of those?" Tubbo says nonchalantly.

"You're actually kidding," Tommy looks him in the eyes. "Tubbo, that's insane. Do one!"

"Well I can't do one in the kitchen," he waves his arms around. "I'd either hurt myself or the kitchen and I don't want either of those!"

"Ok, fine, but you absolutely have to do one when we finish the cookies."

"Fine, fine.."

"Ok so what next Tubs?"

"Maybe we can learn how to build a table?"

"Tubbo, I hate to say it but that is a pretty lame idea."

"Ok, ok, it may not be as cool as a backflip but we still need to know how to do that!"

"Fine, add that to the list." Tommy sighs and rests his face on his hand. "I think we should also learn how to make flower crowns." Tubbo looks up with a raised eyebrow. "What it seems fun!" He threw his arms up in defense.

"Alrighty then," he scribbles down the idea. "Making flower crowns does seem fun."

"Also, we should go catch lightning bugs one day. I've never been able to do that with anyone and I think that seems so fun." 

"Oooo, I haven't done that either!" 

-----------------------------------------------------------

After 10 minutes of making a bucket list, they remember the cookies. "Tommy! Dude! The cookies!"

"Oh fuck!" Tommy yells. "How long has it been?!"

"I don't know!" The two boys run to the stove and open the stove door. Tubbo sees the cookies and he stands there in awe, "Tommy," his mouth hanging open. "These cookies are perfect.." He gets the oven mitt, grabs the pan and puts it on the counter.

"Oh my god.."

The cookies are golden brown. They are crunchy on the outer rim and soft on the inner part. The chocolate chips are melted to perfection. Then they flip them over to transfer them to the plate. 

"Oh." They're burnt on the bottom. They both break into a fit of laughter. It takes them at least five minutes for them to calm down. "We thought-" he can't even speak. "We thought they were so perfect-" Tommy is still laughing, "and they're burnt on the bottom!" 

Tubbo is folded in half. "My stomach hurts, oh my god!"

-----------------------------------------------------------

Back at the castle, Wilbur is packing up stuff in his backpack. Shirts, pants, his favorite jacket, some soap, some money, and right beside his backpack, he has his guitar case.

-----------------------------------------------------------

After the two boys calm down from laughing, the cookies are cooled so that they can eat them. Tubbo grabs the cookies one at a time and scrapes the bottom of them with a butter-knife so he can get the burnt parts off. After he gets the burnt parts off Tommy and Tubbo both grab cookies and puts them on a plate. Tubbo grabs two cups from one of the cupboards and pours milk into each of the cups. 

"Ok Tubbo, you got the burnt parts off, let's hope they're good. Cheers, to the bucket list!" They clink their milk glasses together, take a sip and then taste the cookies. For a second they're just chewing and trying to taste it, "Ooooooooooooooooh, that is gooooooooooood Tubzo."

"Wow.." Tubbo is just inhaling the cookies. "Dude," he says with his mouth full, "those are so damn tasty, holy crap."

Teagan and Lani walk in, "What did you guys make?" Lani asks.

"We made chocolate chip cookies and they are just heavenly Teagan you have to try them." Tubbo grabs two cookies and hands them to his sisters.

They grab the cookies out of his hand and Lani looks at her cookie skeptically. "This was Tommy's first time baking?" 

"Well yeah, but we scraped all of the burnt parts off with a knife but they taste SO good Lani trust me." 

She raises a brow, "ok, if you say so.." They both take a bite of their cookies. 

"Holy crap Tommy, these are good!" Teagan exclaims, "These are actually so delicious for your first time!" 

"Yeah these are actually really tasty." Lani says with her mouth full.

At this point Tommy is full of pride. His first attempt making cookies and he absolutely crushed it. Pogchamp. "You know, Tubbo, now that I am a professional baker, maybe I could teach you a thing or two about being a big man." 

"Tommy, I get that I'm shorter than you but I am still a big man." 

The taller boy crosses his arms, "Tubbo, come with me."

"What?" he steps backwards, "where are we going?"

"You'll see." Tommy grabs a bunch of cookies and sprints out of the bakery door. Tubbo is extremely fast for some reason so he can keep up just fine.

"Ok, Tommy actually, where are we going?"

"To the castle."

He stops in his tracks, "excuse me? We are going to the castle? I still have my apron on for goodness sake!" 

"It's not like anyone there will care.."

"I care! I'm a mess Tommy!" 

"Eh, you'll survive.."

"Ugh fine."

And then they go, barreling towards the castle. People give them strange looks but that's fine. Tubbo is still freaking out at the fact he is going to the castle upon direct invitation from the prince. That's my friend right there. 

When they get to the gates, the guards look at Tommy strangely. They haven't seen him since he angrily stormed out of the castle this morning and now hes back hours later with a random boy from down the street? Whatever. They open the gates and Tommy and Tubbo rush in. Tommy opens the grand front door of the castle and he ushers Tubbo in. "So Tubzo, this is the main room which you probably have already seen, y'know visits to the castle with your family and all that." They keep walking. Eventually they come across stairs that lead to the second floor where the bedrooms are. "I'm not going to show you the dining hall but you can meet my brothers! I'm not on the best terms with my dad at the moment but you know him." Did I really just say that I'm not on good terms with my dad out loud??? Why- Ok doesn't matter. Whatever. 

"This castle is so pretty Tommy. I would kill to live here." the smaller boy says in bewilderment. "And it's so big! How do you not get lost!"

"Well, once you live in it for 16 years, you know every room, hallway, and secret tunnel by heart." he shrugs, "Anyway, let's go meet by brothers!"
