Amelia

Phil let out a small chuckle as I kicked the door to Technoblade's cabin open, startling the two men inside.

"Oh, I'm sorry." I put my foot down. "Was I interrupting yet another argument about something stupid?"

"No!" Tommy yelled.

"The child woke me up by screaming that you weren't here. I thought those idiots from L'Manberg came and took you." Technoblade replied, looking worried.

"Pretty sure Phil isn't one of those L'Manberg idiots." I replied, kicking the other door open to reveal Phil. "Though, one of those does apply to him."

"I'm not even going to ask." Phil held in a laugh, trying to sound upset.

"You took my crown?" Technoblade growled. "And you got blood on my cape?"

"You were asleep, so you weren't using them." I shrugged.

"I swear! You're lucky you're Phil's person, or I'd rip your throat out!"

"I doubt you would."

I yawned as I pulled the crown off, and Technoblade was silent as he took it from me. I shrugged the cape off and hung it on the coat rack by his desk myself.

"That's the first time you've yawned like that since you got here." He muttered.

I hummed quietly. "Maybe my exhaustion is catching up to me."

I turned and gave Phil a small smile, noticing the glaze of worry in his eyes. I made my way over to the ladder down into the villager room. I heard Tommy say something to them before following me, and he muttered a quiet good night as he climbed down the ladder before heading to his room. I leaned against the wall near the back of the villager room, and I watched as Phil slid down the ladder with ease. He looked at me, and I smiled before I pushed myself off of the wall and walked to the hidden hall. I pressed the stone button that blended into the ceiling, holding the iron door open as he followed me.

"You've been staying in here?" He muttered, looking around at the walls of chests.

"It's out of the way." I replied. "Techno gets the whole attic floor for his room, and Tommy made himself an area below this floor. I just kind of dug into the wall a bit. It'll be easy for Techno to fill in if I build a house."

"You never have been the one for aesthetics." He chuckled.

"It's not my forte, no. That's why I leave that aspect of our lives to you." I sat on the bed, watching as his wings fidgeted slightly. "I don't exactly have a two person bed right now, so I could just go into my raccoon form."

"No, you don't have to." Phil yawned as he spoke, his wings stretching. "We've always made it work."

I giggled as I got to my feet, watching as he playfully feigned being hurt in the chest as he fell back onto the bed, his wings vanishing seconds before hitting the mattress. He let out a soft grunt as I threw myself over him, both of us laughing.

"Welcome home, Phil." I muttered.

"Welcome home, Amelia." He replied, wrapping his arms around me as I pulled the blanket over us.

He chuckled as I buried my face in his neck, and we both soon drifted to sleep together.

"What the hell is that?"

"What? Oh! Tommy's tower? You've never noticed that during the few weeks you've been here?"

Phil stared up at the looming cobblestone tower. "Techno just let him build that eyesore?"

"Complained the entire time." I put my hand on my hip.

The door to the cabin opened, and I smiled as Technoblade stepped down the porch steps. He was clad in his full attire, armor clinking softly with each step and an enchanted diamond sword in hand. I wasn't sure what lengths he had to go to in order to get all of his armor back from the people of L'Manberg, but I knew it involved kidnapping and holding hostages. Tommy followed him out of the house, wearing a mishmash of different armor types and his turtle shell helmet, a memento from the pig man.

"Ready to go, Tommy?" I asked.

"Yep!" He had a bright smile on his face as he stood in front of me.

He laughed as I messed with his hair. I looked at Phil as he gently took my wrist, pulling me away from the other two.

"Do you really have to go with them? There's no telling what could happen." He muttered.

"I know you're worried, but I have to go." I smiled as I put my hands on his neck. "I'm not letting Techno wander into territory where he's a wanted person with only Tommy to protect his back."

"You could stay here and be safe with me."

"I could, but when have I ever done anything to keep myself safe?"

He chuckled. "At least stay close to Techno. Don't wander off."

"I will." I  giggled as he kissed my cheek.

"Let's go, Amelia!" Technoblade yelled.

I waved to Phil as I ran after the two men.
