Ranboo POV

I woke up and looked around. I didn't feel any pain anywhere. I was sure they would hit me eventually. I just don't know why they are waiting on it. I got up and started to pack my bag like routine and was soon ready to go back. I was always given back to the orphanage. I heard someone coming up the stairs. I got ready. I heard a knock at the door. I sighed I was somewhat not wanting to leave. I liked a few of them but I did miss Bill. I still don't trust anyone, Philza opened the door.

"It's time to-" Philza was cut off to see I was awake but with my backpack on he looked confused, I don't know why.

"Where are you going?."

"Am I not going back to the orphanage?."

"No- you never will, You live here now."

"Ok Phil..? Can I take a bath? It's been a few days'' I asked, looking down.

"Yeah go ahead wait, how do you take baths if you can't touch water?"

"I usually pain it out"

"Maybe I can make a fire resistance potion for water?" I smiled. Phil walked out of the door and I followed. He began to brew a potion in his room and then came outside and handed it to me.

"Poor that over yourself make sure you get every piece of your skin you got 6 minutes when it's in session." I smiled and took it and walked up the steps and into the bathroom. I didn't want to cut but I felt bad for them then that's when it started I turned on the water.

They dont love you.

No one does.

Everyone will leave you.

Bill is happy you left.

They will give you back.

My thoughts went back and forth I began to cry it burned again I grabbed the blade cutting 3 lines on my left arm re-opening some, and then I got up sobbing but blood was running down my arm I splashed the potion over my head it hurt a lil but I got in the shower glad to feel no burning on my skin it had worked I washed myself and got out I heard a knock at the door.

"Ranboo I got you some new clothing" I heard a man that sounded like Wilbur say behind the door he slid the clothing under the door I thanked him and grabbed them and slid them on, it was a nice black long sleeve hoodie and some blue jeans I put them on and went out of the bathroom blade in pocket I returned to my room and the pot wore off I put the blade back my arm still bleeding I walked down stairs to see Wilbur cooking, Tommy outside on the porch Philza was sitting on the sofa watching the weather a upcoming snow storm in 3 days is what I overheard I sat at the table.

"You like pancakes Ranboo?" Wilbur asked focused on cooking.

"I don't know I have ever had pancakes'' I said I was telling the truth. The only thing we really ate at the orphanage was Soup and beef jerky and I was never treated well in other houses.

''Well I think you'll like them" Wilbur said as he flipped one onto a plate, giving it to me and pouring some syrup on it.

"Thank you" I said looking at the food.

"Are you done Wilbur?" Philza asked, looking over at us from the sofa.

"Yeah I'm done i'll go get techno" Wilbur said going up the stairs I assumed that's where he went I heard the front door open to see Tommy and another boy.

"PHILZA TUBBO IS HERE" Tommy yelled as he came in.

"I am here!" the boy with goat horns yelled behind Tommy. Tommy sat down in a seat away from me. The boy called 'Tubbo' sitting next to me Philza came over, fixing them both a plate of pancakes and then fixing himself one and sitting down next to me Techno and Wilbur came down the stairs Grabbing them some pancakes sitting down and eating.

Everyone soon was done Wilbur and Techno was done first they put there dishes up then it was tommy and Philza I keep seeing the goat hybrid boy called tubbo kept glancing up at me then tubbo was done and then it was me I had eaten 1 fourth of it and couldn't bare to eat anymore without feeling sick, I dumped the plate and put up a syrup that was at the top shelf and my shirt went up a bit no one noticed I don't think.

"So who wants to go to the store today and get some food we have a big snowstorm coming in and we need more food to last for the rest of the week" Philza said from the sofa I'm not sure if I'm ready to go out I don't trust them yet I don't know if I ever will. What if they give me back? What if they drop me off on the side of the road? I missed Bill. I wish he was here, He always knew how to calm me down. My thoughts went back and forth like an argument. I didn't realize it but I was shaking and starting to panic. I was in my head I couldn't tell.

Wilbur POV

I was watching Ranboo put up the syrup and his shirt came up and he looked really skinny, I should tell dad. Everyone was talking about going out today and I looked over to see Ranboo shaking and breathing fast. I didn't want to bring attention to him so I slowly walked over to him. I grabbed his hand and slowly pulled him up and walked up the stairs with him into my room. His eyes were closed. I didn't realize what was happening to him. He looked so scared I sat him down on my bed.

"Ranboo are you ok?." He shook his head 'no' slowly

"it's going to be ok, what's bugging you?" I asked him in the softest voice I could. I was so worried for him. especially because he was my brother he didn't speak he opened his mouth a Enderman noise came out I started to get scared I didn't know how to comfort him especially because I didn't want to look him in the eye, Endermen turn aggressive by that I don't know if he is the same I grabbed his hands off of his head and took them and slowly rubbed his back I tried to remember what Techno and Phil did when I got scared or panic like.

"Lets count to ten Ranboo come on count with me its ok, its alright I'm not going to hurt you I promise" I said softly I was worried about him.

Ranboo POV

"1, 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, 10" we said together slowly he put my hand to his chest and slowly his breathing I tried to match his breathing pattern I started to see stuff again it wasn't just colorless nothing and my thoughts I opened my eyes to see Wilbur looking worried at me.

"You ok Ranboo?."

"Y-yeah I'm alright I just... panicked I don't know why I'm sorry." I responded I'm still shaking a bit I could tell now.

"Want me to play you a song?" He asked me I nodded I would like that He took his Guitar and picked up a sheet with some words on it.

"This one is called Jubilee Line" He said as he began to play it (play song now if you like) I relaxed he was good at guitar really good at it I sat on his bed I quite liked it. It was calming to hear the soft music it went on for a bit he started to sing he sounded great I stopped shaking I really liked his music it was really calming to me I don't know why it was from his album called "your city gave me Asthma" I could see it etched into his guitar.

"Shout at the wall, Because the walls don't fucking love you" The song picked up pace it went on a for a bit and then he stopped.

"You like it?"

"Yeah I did thank you."
