You Didn't Notice (Tommy angst) (3/3)

Wilbur POV

To say Tommy was talented didn't seem to give him enough credit. The way he acted, the way he spoke, it was incredible. I had never seen something so captivating.

But I couldn't help but notice the sad look that always lingered in his eyes. It was barely noticeable, but it was always there. Like he was missing something.

At the end of the play we gave him a standing ovation, in my opinion he deserved even more than that. Afterwards we headed to the lobby where everyone would meet up. My eyes searched the crowd for his blonde hair, surprisingly I couldn't spot him. But I did spot Tubbo and when you can find Tubbo, you can find Tommy.

"Tubbo!" I shouted, dragging Techno and Phil behind me.

He glanced towards me, a wave of surprise washing over his face. Why was he surprised?

"You guys are here!" he exclaimed, a bright smile emerging from his face.

"Of course! Why wouldn't we be?" I questioned.

"Tommy said you didn't want to come." Tubbo shrugged, "It's not your fault he didn't tell you."

"Why didn't he?" Techno interrupted, curious.

"He figured you guys didn't want to come." he said sadly. "But now that you're here Tommy will be so happy!" He immediately brightened at the thought.

"Where is he?" Phil was the first to ask.

Tubbo looked around, like he was searching around himself. "He must be in the dressing room." He looked around again, before studying Wilbur. "I could take you back there, as long as Dream doesn't see."

"What's your brother going to do about it?" 

Tubbo shrugged, "He's always particular as to who can go backstage. But this is important, so I think he'll let it slide." He urged us to follow him as he began walking towards the back of the stage. Right before we reached the dressing room, he stopped us. "Be understanding, he gets defensive about this."

"I think I know my own brother thanks." I tried to push past him.

"Do you?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. And with that he left us, leaving me with an unsettling feeling in my stomach. Did I not know my own brother?

I glanced back at the other two, a silent question. They both nodded, following me as I pushed open the door. My heart broke at the sight I saw.

There sat my little brother, curled up against the wall as he sobbed. He sounded so defeated. I had never heard something so painful before. I slowly made my way over to him, being cautiously.

"Toms?" I spoke softly, the blonde snapped up, his eyes widening at the sight of me. I opened my arms as an invitation, afraid to overstep. A small smile passed his lips as he flung himself at me. I hugged him close, feeling his tears soak my shirt.

"I didn't think you would come." he sobbed, gripping on to my shirt.

"Of course we would come. Why would you think that Tommy?" Techno asked, kneeling beside us.

"You didn't notice! It's like you forgot all about me..." I felt guilt pool in my chest at his words. "It was like I didn't exist! So w-why would you care if I got the lead in some stupid play?"

"It's not stupid Tommy." Phil shook his head.

"And you were absolutely incredible." Techno added.

"We are so proud of you Toms. I'm sorry if you ever felt like we didn't notice." I pulled his closer, holding his head to my chest.

"So why did you leave me out?" he hiccupped.

I sighed, "We have no excuse. I'm so sorry, we should have noticed how much we were leaving you out."

"I-It's okay." 

"No it's not." Phil disagreed. "But we'll make it up to you."

"Yeah, I'm not missing any of your plays ever." Techno vowed.

"How do you know I'll do another one?" he questioned, still sniffing.

"You better do another one. Tommy you have a true gift and you have no reason not to let it shine." I grinned, "And I'm not missing one either."

"You said it." Phil nodded.

Suddenly Tommy hugged back tighter, his voice was shaky but I could just make out what he said.

"Thank you."
