Tubbo watched in horror as his Tommy fell to the floor, his brilliant blue eyes finding Tubbo's. It took all his willpower not to scream in dismay.

"Smile for me. Smile, Tubbo... Please. I... want... the last... Thing..."

I want the last thing I see to be you. Tubbo completed the sentence that he knew Tommy would never get to finish. Tubbo gave him the best smile he could, but Tommy was dying. His Tommy was dying and he couldn't keep up that facade, because there was no point anymore. There was no point in trying because the only reason why he was doing this was dying, a flickering candle snuffed out.

And Techno was screaming, running to Tommy as his body went limp and shaking it, offering the corpse potions. Dream's eyes were wide open in shock, looking between Tommy and his best friend -- Tubbo. And Tubbo? All he could do was stand there, staring at the only reason why- why-

Techno turned to him, anger in his eyes. "YOU!" he shouted. "YOU!"

Tubbo turned to Dream, ignoring him. "I believe our contract is terminated."

Dream frowned. "What do you-"

A sword in the neck, that's all it took to kill him. They should really invent neck armor.

It was so satisfying to kill, to see the very person he loathed realize what was to become of him and crumble, his body slumped against the floor. Tommy was wrong about one thing. He had changed. He could kill without hesitation, he could watch someone die and stand completely still. He wasn't the same Tubbo that Tommy had known so well. His presidency had changed him, no matter how Tubbo hated to admit it.

Tubbo had not killed Tommy because he couldn't. And he wouldn't ever. But he did indirectly kill him. Tommy had driven a knife into his own heart for him.

Tommy loved him.

The fact that Tommy had loved him so much that he had killed himself for him made Tubbo's heart warm. The fact that Tommy had died quickly simmered the small snippet of joy, though. The fact that Tubbo would never feel his comforting arms around him again, that he'd never hear his warm laugh again made him feel worse.

"YOU-" Techno was marching towards him, in a fit of rage. "YOU KILLED HIM!"

Tubbo's mouth opened, then closed. He nodded.

"HE'S DEAD-"

Tubbo's eyes found Tommy's. He looked so peaceful in death, having died with a smile on his face.

A pang in Tubbo's heart. He wanted Tommy to wake up, to wake up and tell him that it was all just a joke and that he was still there.

Tommy had promised to keep him safe. Tommy had promised. He had brought that promise with him into death.

Tubbo wished that he could still fulfill that promise. He wanted Tommy's hug again, to feel his warmth. He wanted to bury his head into Tommy's chest again, to listen to his beating heart as Tommy stroked him softly, comforting him.

Instead, he felt nothing.

Tommy wasn't supposed to die. It was supposed to be him.

But now he was dead, died to protect Tubbo.

"I will make you pay," Techno warned, anger etched in every part of his face. Another person dropped down into the lair. Dream, on his second life.

They both held axes, reading to strike Tubbo down.

"Techno, Tommy died for me. Please don't hurt me. He'd have died for nothing."

"Don't use his name in vain!" Techno snapped. "You betrayed him and you betrayed everyone just so you can get power!"

"Don't you understand?" Tubbo pleaded. "Tommy died so I could be safe, Techno. Please, respect his wishes."

Dream advanced towards them but Techno stopped him. "This is between Tubbo and me," Techno hissed.

Didn't include this because it was a bit short and I lost inspiration.
