The Prince and the Knight

05 -Bonding-☀️

After a few days, Wilbur lifted Tommy's punishment because of his "apparently" good behavior.

Once he was allowed to see Tubbo again he didn't miss the chance and they both went to the library.

It was a huge and quiet place, they were on the second floor, seated on a rounded table.

Tommy was sitting across Tubbo. They were surrounded by gigantic shelves that reached the ceiling and every single one of them was filled with books of all kinds.

The lighting was perfect because of the big window behind them and Clay was standing really close without any apparent desire to talk or read anything.

He was just there for Tommy.

-"What about a plant? Ranboo likes plants, I can give him a flower"- Tubbo had his hair all messy of rubbing it constantly and grabbing his head too much while trying to think of an idea for the "perfect gift."

-"Ranboo isn't that crazy about plants like you Tubbs, I mean he does have his room filled with the ones you gave him last year but that's just because he loves you"-

Tommy felt sick at talking about Tubbo's romantic life and thought of leaving at some point, even though the whole reason of him coming was to spend more time with his friend.

But after seeing just how much Tubbo wanted his help, Tommy stayed.

Although, he wasn't being of much help and he knows it.

-"Please Tommy I need your help! Our anniversary is tomorrow and I haven't even picked a present yet"- Tubbo rested his head on the table and extended his arms all over in a defeated position.

-"Why are you asking me though? Wilbur knows more about these things than I do. Princess Sally knows it!"- Tommy's older brother was engaged to Sally, the daughter of the king of Kinoko Kingdom, the neighboring kingdom.

One of the good points of that place is it's location, being relatively closer to L'Mamberg than Pogtopia.

And Tommy has to admit that the lady that Wilbur loves is very nice and refined.

They are a cute couple but still, none of them have actually chosen a day to get married, not even talked about it on private.

Tommy just hopes for them to wait a little bit longer, at least for a couple of years before they even decide that marrying each other is the right choice and start to arrange a fucking wedding.

The real reason being, he doesn't want to be left all alone in L'Manberg. He already missed Techno and knew he wasn't ready to lose another brother and rule a kingdom by himself, not yet.

-"And what about Clay? you can ask him. Also, he is standing right in front of us."- Tommy said and Tubbo looked over at the green male.

He wasn't making any sound, neither was moving and it made him wonder how Clay was able to be stood like that for large periods of time without getting tired.

The blonde was already used to the knight's behavior, but not Tubbo.

The herbalist apprentice didn't know him that much and he must admit that he was a little intimidated by the knight's presence.

Even though he knew Clay was not looking directly at him but at Tommy, he still felt watched.

-"Because you are the only one I can talk about this kind of stuff without being awkward"- Tubbo sits straight again and looks at Tommy in a desperate way.

The prince still trying to get to the next paragraph of the story he was reading.

-"Well...I don't know about you but it's definitely awkward for me"- Tommy lifted his head from the book so Tubbo could only see his eyes.
