"No, no. Toms it's not I swear." Wilbur attempted to calm Tommy down but he couldn't.
"It is! You were fine and then I started smoking and drinking and-" Tommy rambled on and on as Techno came up behind him, wrapping his arms around him.
"Breathe Toms. This isn't speaking, it's more panicking and talking at Wil. How are you supposed to have a conversation in this state?" Techno attempted to calm Tommy down and it sort of worked.
"Techno, it is my fault.." Tommy croaked out causing Techno to freeze and glare at Wilbur.
"I promise you, i never said it was his fault Tech, it wasn't his. He just won't listen." Wilbur frantically replied.
Tommy stared at Wilbur, confusion covering his face.
"But who's fault would it be Wil? If not mine, who's? Nothing else changed other than I started hanging out with you.." Tommy questioned.
"Tommy, it was mine. I realise it was a bad choice now and at the time i thought it would of fixed all of our problems. It just made more, i'm sorry." Wilbur replied, tears falling down his face.
Tommy wasn't sure if he should believe Wilbur, it seemed true but it just wasn't adding up in his head. It still occurred after Tommy started hanging out with him more and doing drugs but it seemed so sincere from Wilbur.
Wilbur genuinely meant that it wasn't Tommy's fault. He could never blame his youngest brother and he hated that he blamed himself. Wilbur had always seen himself as a fuck up and to him this just proved it. He had made his youngest brother start smoking, he had then tried to fix everything and it just made it worse.
And Techno.. he was tired. He was tired of acting like he was the eldest brother when that was Wilbur. He was tired of having to make sure everyone was constantly okay and he was tired of watching his brothers ruin their own lives one step at a time. Phil helped as much as possible but he had to work and wasn't always home.
Their lives had turned to shit.
"Are you sure it's not my fault Wil?" Tommy questioned for the final time.
"Toms, I promise you it's not" Wilbur replied.
Then it went silent apart from the occasional sniff and then..
"I wanna go to rehab." Wilbur said suddenly.
"You do?" Techno and Tommy chorused, both confused by the sudden statement.
Wilbur nodded, "Yeah, I do. I'm gonna talk to dad about it in a bit."
Tommy raised an eyebrow, "So you're gonna leave?"
Wilbur nodded, "For a little bit yeah, then i'll be back."
"promise?" Tommy asked.
"I promise Tommy." Wilbur said
