A New Family | Tommy Angst | Adoption

Day 4 of School

[Bzzz] Tommy got woken up by the sound of his phone. He grabbed his phone and saw a message from an unknown number. *Its 2:19am, who would be texting me at this
time?* Tommy thought before he opened up the text. "Hello Tommy" The text read. "Who is this?" Tommy texted back. "Guess idiot". "Dream?" Tommy hoped it wasn't, but. "Wow it really took you that long, so stupid" Dream texted back, smiling in the hospital. "How did you get my number" Tommy texted back.

"That's not important, just a heads up, Tubbo isn't coming in today" Tommy's face dropped. "What have you done!". "Oh nothing. Just because I'm in hospital doesn't mean I don't have other friends" Dream texted back with an evil smile. A tear dropped from Tommy's eye. He turned his phone off and put it on silent before going back to sleep.

"Tommy breakfast is ready wake up" Wilbur whispered to Tommy who was half asleep. Tommy nodded, waking up a bit. He followed Will to the table where Phil and Techno were.

TIME SKIP

Tommy saw Tubbo walking down the hallway and ran up to him. "Hey Tubbo!" Tommy said with a smile, happy that Tubbo was in. "Hey Tommy" Tubbo said quietly, not facing Tommy. "Look at me" Tommy said, his smile dropped. Tubbo had a black eye and a plaster on his cheek. Tommy hugged him instantly. "Who did this" Tommy said, a tear running down his cheek. "N-no one" Tubbo cried into Tommy's chest. Tommy stoked Tubbo's hair as he was starting to think. Dreams text. Tommy pulled out his phone and showed Tubbo the texts. "H-how does he have y-your number?" Tubbo asked, looking up at Tommy.

"I don't know but I hate it, are you ok" Tommy said, looking down at Tubbo. Tubbo nodded, another tear rolled down his cheek and over the plaster. Tommy wiped it away and smiled at him. Tubbo smiled back and hugged Tommy again. [DING] They both sighed and went to class.

As soon as lunch hit, they sat down at a table and saw 2 figures approaching them. "Hey guys what's-" Wilbur was saying as he noticed Tubbo's eye, as did Techno. "Who did this to you Tubbo" Techno said seriously. "I- it's ok, you don't need to worry about me, its no biggy really" Tubbo said, not wanting to say. "Tubbo" Techno stared into Tubbo's eyes as Wilbur ran over to him and hugged him. "Are you ok!" Will said quickly. "I'm ok" Tubbo laughed.

*It can't of been Dream and that other idiot because they're in hospital, his friends, oh I know* "Was it Bad and Skeppy, did they do this" Techno said calmly. Tubbo's eyes widened. "P-please don't do a-anything, they w-were forced to please" Tubbo lied, they weren't forced but he was scared of getting punched again. "It's ok, I won't do anything now, but if this happens again, just know im going straight for them, and if your ever in trouble yell for one of us ok" Techno said, knowing how hard it can get sometimes. Tubbo nodded as Will got off him.

Tommy saw another text from Dream on his phone. He wasn't going to read it yet in case they would see. Once lunch was over they went to class.

TIME SKIP

Tommy and Tubbo walked out the front of the school and walked towards the gates until someone called for Tubbo. "Hey Tubbo, my best friend, can I talk to you" Tubbo turned around and noticed who it was, Bad and Skeppy. Tubbo squeezed Tommy's hand, Tommy took this as a sign and spoke up. "Sorry but he's coming with me". "Oh, well you can come as well if you want" Skeppy said. Tommy pulled Tubbo away from them and to the other side of him. "Yeah no, we're alright, bye bye now" Tommy wasn't scared, they weren't scary in the slightest.

Tommy started walking until Bad grabbed his shoulder and dug his nails into his skin. "But we need to talk to Tubbo, it's really important" Bad said. Tommy grabbed Bads hand and removed it. "I said no and goodbye, didn't I?So, bye bye now" Tommy said, looking into Bads eyes. Tommy put his arm around Tubbo and started walking away. Skeppy then grabbed Tubbo and yanked him back. "TECHNOBLADE" Tommy yelled. "So, what have we got here" Techno appeared behind Skeppy as he cracked his knuckles with Wilbur standing behind him.

Tommy yanked Tubbo away from them, put his arm around him and ran to the now pulled up car. Tommy opened the car door for Tubbo to get in. Tommy then closed the door and hugged Tubbo in the back seat as Tubbo cried into Tommy shoulder. "It's ok Tubbo, I've locked the car and Technos over there with them" Phil said, looking back at them. Techno had messaged Phil about what had happened at lunch as soon as the bell went. "It's ok, your safe now, they can't get to you" Tommy said calmly. Tubbo nodded and calmed down a bit.

Tubbo looked over Tommy's shoulder to see Techno picking up the 2 idiots from the back of their shirts and dragging them to the car with a cheering Wilbur following him. Tubbo laughed, making Tommy turn around and see them. Tommy rolled down the window so Techno could speak. "Got em boys" Techno laughed. They all cheered, including Phil. Techno put the 2 boys in trunk, not caring at all and sat down next to Tubbo whilst Will sat in the front. They then went to the hospital and dropped the boys off. Techno left them at the entrance and left.

Tubbo texted his parents that he was going to Tommy's house. They all went in the house. Tommy sat Tubbo down on the sofa whilst giving him hugs as Techno and Wilbur asked him questions about what had happened and of cause Phil was making food as always. Tubbo had stopped crying by now so it was easier to get the answers. He was also not scared of Techno anymore after what just happened. "So what actually happened" Techno asked.

"Well they came up behind us and asked if they could talk to me, Tommy stood up for me and protected me, they argued whilst I cried, yeah I know, and then you showed up out of no where. How did you do that?" Tubbo explained. "Well I heard you needed help to I ran with Wilbur" Techno said. "But- never mind, got any other questions?" Tubbo asked. "Yes, I wanna hear the black eye story" Wilbur said.

"I arrived at school and got bored so started looking for Tommy, they found me, dragged me over to the side of the building and beat me" Tubbo explained another story. "Mhm. Wow I hate this school more and more each day" Techno laughed. Tommy was still hugging Tubbo. "I don't need hugs anymore I'm ok" Tubbo laughed. "Don't care I'm comfy" Tommy said quietly. They laughed, Tommy had never had a friend like this before. Tubbo had dinner at Tommy's house then was dropped off at home by Phil whilst the 3 boys talked.

"You really care about that boy don't you" Techno said, looking back at Tommy. Tommy nodded, he knew it himself. "Tubbo's my first friend in that place, and I wanna keep him" Tommy said, smiling. "I get that" Techno and Will agreed. Once Phil got back they all went to bed.

Tommy opened his phone to see the text from Dream he hadn't opened. "Hey loser, I heard Tubbo was in today, how's he doing, never mind don't care, I'm out of this place tomorrow so you better watch your back! I'm getting revenge" Dreams text read. Tommy's eyes widened as he started to think of what Dream would do. He didn't notice he was crying. He accidently let out a little noise that was quite loud. He soon after heard a knock on his door. The door opened as Technos face appearing. He closed the door behind him and sat on Tommy's bed. "What's wrong" he whispered.

"I- nothing" Tommy whispered back, not noticing his phone was still on the texts. Techno picked up the phone and began to read. When he was done he looked at Tommy, he was hugging his knees whilst crying into them. "It's ok, trust me he's not going to do anything, it's gonna be ok, he's not doing anything to Tubbo either" Techno said, putting Tommys knees down to see his face, tears were streaming down his face. He wiped them away and hugged Tommy. "I can go to you at lunch tomorrow if you want" Techno said, still whispering. Tommy nodded as he cheered up.

Techno then looked back at Tommy as he was walking out of the room, he smiled and closed the door. Tommy soon went to sleep, feeling a bit better than before.
