Philza woke up, ready to start his day.

Kristen was already up, probably because he stayed an hour more in the Mind Space.

After making his bed, he steps out to get to the library, which had a few people in. There were a few regulars, such as Niki, Ranboo and Fundy. They're college students who come here to do projects with eachother.

"Hi, you three! " Philza greeted.

"Hello, Mr. Minecraft!" Fundy smiled. "What do you think? Should we use yellow, or purple?"

They were trying to build a cardboard house, for whatever reason.

"I think dull green would work there, but yellow would work too," He said, examining the spot. "Anyways, what are you guys doing?"

"You know that we don't go to the same college, right?" Niki said. "We all go to different schools! We're helping Ranboo with his project today."

"Oh, good on you then," Phil smiles, and left.

They were good kids.

Tommy was on his bed, getting ready to go to the other world.

Apparently Tubbo found some caves, and he invited Techno and him to go exploring.

He turned the knob to infinite, but made sure to kept it wake able.

Until he heard a knock.

"Tom? Tom!" Mother innit called. "Get dressed, we're leaving!"

"What? Where are we even going?!" Tommy groaned, walking besides his mother.

"We're going to the library. You need to go out for once, Tom."

The car ride to this so called library was exasperating. He'd rather be exploring the caves with his friends than going to a stupid library.

He looked at his ticking clock. He would just pass out right then and there, but his parents are convinced that his sudden spike in sleeping all the time is going to kill him.

He felt the car stop.

He looked up from his window seat, to see a very... cute building. You wouldn't hear it out of him, though.

It was coloured beige and pink, making it stand out from the grey buildings beside it. There was a few flower carts infront of it, too. And it was a building on a corner, so it was small; but cozy type small.

Maybe he could get away with sleeping here?

Motherinnit came outside and met up with some old women. That's probably why she went to this library; but decided to bring Tommy.

"Go on, Tom. You read some books, I'll call you after I'm done talking." She turned her back, continuing her chit chat with her friends.

Tommy opened the door, a little bell ringing to signify he was in.

He walked to the isles quietly, skimming through the books. He wasn't really a book person, but he can't really do much here. It's a library. He took a random book out of the shelf, and sat down an empty table near the windows.

He turned to his book. 'The Little Prince'.

The cover glistened in the morning light, smelling like an old book.

"I think you'd love that book." A voice piped up from behind.

Tommy jumped, turning his head to whoever said that.

He saw... Wait, that looks awfully like Philza Minecraft.

"Philza Minecraft?" Tommy murmured.

The man realised. "Wait, Tommy?"

"Is that really you?!" Tommy smiled wide, hugging Phil.

"Shh, this is a library." Phil shushed. "Anyways, yes. It is me."

"I can't believe I met the old man in real life!" Tommy giggled. "I can't wait till they they hear about this."

"Oh yeah, Tommy!" Phil said. "Why did you visit?"

"Mother wants me to go out more often." Tommy grumbled. "But hey, I got to talk to Philza Minecraft, it's not all that bad."

Phil giggled. "Come on, wanna get some pancakes? I just made some earlier."

"Woo! I can finally eat them in real life!" Tommy followed.

Suddenly, he was pulled backwards abruptly.

"Excuse me? Why are you bringing my son upstairs, sir?" Motherinnit growled, holding Tommy tight behind her.

Phil froze. "Ma'am, Tommy and I are friends—"

"Tom? Do you know this man?"She turned to Tommy, who freed himself from his mums protective grasp.

"Yeah!" Tommy said.

"Are you sure? When did you meet him?"

"I... Volunteer here! I used to help arrange books!" Tommy lied, looking at his mother, nervously.

"...Alright. I was just worried. He's a grown man, and I was scared you were gonna get kidnapped!"

Tommy laughed. "No one can abduct me!"

"Anyways, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding." Motherinnit smiled.

"It's fine, you were just doing what a mom would do."

---

"Guys, guys! You won't believe it, but I met Philza IRL!" Tommy yelled.

"Tommy, that's cool, but you ditched us—"

Tommy crashed into Tubbo. "I'm sorry, but Mother really really wanted me to go with her to the library."

Tubbo just sighed. "It's fine. We didn't really find much in the caves."

Bonk!

"But you should've like, told me first!" Tubbo said, hitting Tommy with the same rubber stick.

"But I don't even have your number!" Tommy grumbled. He didn't really react to the bonk, he got used to it.

"Well, now we're going to exchange numbers." Tubbo said. "Okay, so..."

---

"And there, we should have each others numbers, plus Technos, Wilbur's and Phil's." Tubbo said.

"How do you have everyone's numbers?" Tommy asked.

"Oh, I made a groupchat just a few days ago!"

"And you didn't tell me?!"

"I forgot!"

Tommy just sighed. "Well, atleast now I can talk to you outside of this Mind Space."

---

"Was that Tommy you were talking to earlier?" Kristen asks.

"Yeah. He's a good kid." Phil laughed, closing his library.

"Maybe we can visit him every once in a while."

"Sure."

He got a ping from his phone.

Phil sighed, chuckling a little.

Well, he doesn't regret it.
