~Tommy's POV~


I've felt much happier these last couple of days, yet I still feel as if something is out of place. After I got this feeling I grabbed an empty book off the shelf and tried writing my feelings. But it just wasn't helping. But what if I wrote a story book instead? Once I got the idea I got to work straight away! Hoping that this will help with the uneasy feeling in my gut. My hand danced across the the pages and the words seem to collide in beautiful clashes of emotions. I had finished the book that day, writing my emotions into the fantasy world of princes and princesses, dungeons and dragons, and far off lands where everything is an adventure.

"Tommy time for dinner honey!" Mom calls from downstairs

"I'll be down in a minute  Mom!" I Yell grabbing the book, getting up from my desk to stretch, I then walk out of my and slide down the banister. n to the kitchen.

"Just in time! I just finished setting the table" Mom chimes in a sing-song-like voice.

"Alrighty. Let's eat I'm starving!" I say setting the book of the table.

Dad sees the book and asks "Hey Toms, what you got there?" As he seems rather interested in what the book might have to offer.

"Oh! I just wrote it to destress. Would you guys like to read it?" I question, curious to see if they like it.  

"Sure honey! Seems like a good book." Mom state grabbing the book and starts reading.

"Toms, you have been a lot happier and haven't had many nightmares since we moved into the cottage." Sam states. 

"Now that you say that I see what you mean, It's been a lot easier going and staying asleep." I half mutter so that I could stay quiet so Mom could read but be loud enough for Dad to hear me.

"That's great Bud, and now that you've found a stress reliever it might be even easier!" Dad says happy that I'm happy. 

{Nobody's Pov}


A comfortable silence falls upon the three of them, until Puffy broke it a bit baffled by how well tommy could write.

"Tommy, Sweetheart, This book is amazing! there's lots of adventure, but not enough to make it overwhelming, like other books."Puffy squeaks, With a prideful look in her soft eyes. She hands the book over to Sam who quickly starts reading, already intrigued by the books contents.

For another couple minutes the comfortable silence falls over them as Tommy is flustered and trying to think of what to say

 "It's my first book Mom, it's not that good." He says trying to get her to agree with him.

"But It's true! that is on of the best books I have ever read." Puffy exclaims, waving around her hands to show how excited she is.

"Your mother's right Toms. This is a REALLY good book." Sam states Just now finished reading

"Fine you win." Tommy says defeated.

The table bursts out in happy laughter from everyone
