Wilbur POV

It was even worse than he thought. The image he had been dreading was even worse than he thought. He walked into Tommy's room and stopped.

There laid his poor baby brother, covered in wires that were attached to so many machines. He looked so small, like he could break at any moment. His skin was so pale, he almost looked to be dead. That alone was enough to cause Wilbur to break down.

He raced to Tommy's side, taking his cold hand into his own. Tears fell down his cheeks with no end in sight. Why did this have to happen to Tommy? He bit his lip, trying so hard to silence his sobs.

He sat like that for minutes, maybe even hours. The constant beeping was the only thing keeping him aware. 

A voice made him look up.

Phil?

Through his blurred vision, he recognized the man instantly.

Phil sprinted to him, quick to wrap his arms around him. Wilbur had never had a good father, so when he met Phil, the man took that position.

The two remained like that for a while, saying nothing. Instead they enjoyed the comfort they needed so badly.

It was Phil who finally broke the silence. "Techno will be here soon, I talked to him on the way here." He spoke softly, still keeping his arms around his son.

Wilbur nodded, sniffing slightly. His eyes never left Tommy and Phil immediately took notice.

"Did you hear anything?" Phil questioned, having not spoken to a doctor yet.

Wilbur shook his head, burying his face further into Phil's shirt. He still kept a grip on Tommy's limp hand, hoping to spread warmth to the cold fingers.

Tommy POV

Everything was so dark. But it wasn't comforting like night, it was eerie like solid blackness. Where was he?

He opened his eyes, blinking a few times. Yet, he still saw nothing. Was he dead? What happened? He was confused to say the least.

Hello? He quickly realized he had no voice in this place. What was happening to him? And then he heard it.

Voices...

"Will he be okay?"

"He should make a full recovery. The issue is we don't know if he sustained any injuries to his head."

"How bad could it be?"

"It could be as small as simply forgetting what happened or it could be a major as forgetting years completely."

"Oh god..."

"But like I said, we can't be sure until he's woken up."

That's when Tommy realized, he wasn't awake. How could he be aware of everything if he wasn't awake? Again he tried to shout, to make them hear him. But nothing came out.

Was this just a step closer to death?

Techno POV

Techno walked into the hospital, practically running. He immediately went to the front desk, ignoring the glares he received from waiting people.

"Can I help you?" the nurse asked politely, registering his distress.

"I need to see Tomm- Thomas. Thomas Innit." he stammered, tapping his foot impatiently. Every second was another moment separated from the little brother he loved more than anything.

"Room 207." she said, having finally found his information.

Techno nodded, "Thanks." Then he ran as fast he could, not even waiting for the elevator before taking the stairs. Why did everything have to take so long?

After what felt like an eternity he finally arrived at the door. He took a deep breath, reminding himself of what he would see. The question was, was he really prepared for it?

As soon as he opened the door he got his answer.

No.

He wasn't prepared in the slightest.

The first thing he saw was Tommy. Laying there, looking dead to the world. He looked like a little kid, despite the fact that he was nearly eighteen. The machines that surrounded him seemed to eat him alive, all following the beeping of the heart monitor that he just noticed was in the room.

Beside him was Phil and Wilbur, both looking like a complete wreck. Only Phil hid it well, at least better than Wilbur did. Wil had fallen asleep, leaning against Phil and still holding onto Tommy. Phil ran his fingers soothingly through the brunette's curly hair, hoping to provide some form of comfort, or as much as he could manage without breaking down himself.

Techno slowly walked towards them, clearing his throat quietly. Immediately Phil snapped up, relief spreading through his face once he recognized his eldest son. He urged him over, offering his free hand to him.

Techno took it, pulling up a chair beside him.

"How is he?" he asked softly, not wanting to wake his brother who looked like he hadn't slept since hearing the news. Which technically he hadn't.

"They said he should make a full recovery." Phil told him, a small smile appearing for a brief second on his face.

"But?" Techno knew that smile, better than he should have.

Phil sighed, "They aren't sure how his brain has been effected."

Techno inhaled sharply, hating this news. This could mean nothing, or it could mean everything. "I take it Wil hasn't slept much?" he chuckled lightly, wanting to tease him, but knowing this was not the time.

Phil shook his head, "Doesn't want to leave Tommy." He looked fondly towards the man. "Can't say I blame him though. We're all worried about Toms."

Techno nodded understandingly. He thought for a moment. "Do they know what happened?"

"They suspect drunk driving, but they're still looking into it."

Techno hummed, glancing again at Tommy. He shouldn't be here. He should be out laughing with Tubbo or making fun of Dream. Anything besides laying in a hospital.

"Don't look at him for too long." Phil's voice tore through his thoughts.

"What?"

"He'll be alright, even if it doesn't look like it right now."

"I know." Techno finally looked away, looking instead at Phil. 

"We'll be there for him."
