The next day was filled with tension and anxiety. Tommy was allowed to stay home, and Phil received a day off. It was the last day after all. And no one was quite prepared for it to happen. The brunette had slept on the couch that night and Phil had stayed with him after Kristin left to go to her own home. Techno came home about 5:34am and Tommy awoke feeling the day going on without him. The four had remained on the couch for hours chatting and watching a tv show they all liked.

"Bet it's a trap," Techno stated rolling his eyes. "It's always a trap."

"Ya never know," Wilbur muttered. "It may be o-kay." After a few moments, the show revealed a trap and Techno turned to Wilbur who had a soft smirk plastered on his face. They resumed watching. Half an hour passed, and they decided to stop what they were doing.

"Awww," Tommy whined. "Why not~?" Phil rolled his eyes.

"It's 9am," the blonde responded waltzing into the kitchen. "Gotta get the day rolling." Tommy groaned getting up and Techno standing.

"What do you want me to do with the sickly child?" the pinkette mocked getting a soft playful scowl from Wilbur.

"We are going to force feed him on the couch all day!" Phil smirked with sarcasm. "No. Get him to the table, okay?" Techno nodded and began the sad struggle. Phil had commanded Tommy to the kitchen for them to get some breakfast ready. After a couple minutes of just calm and collected household vibes breakfast was ready. They sat down with some pancakes and just chatted about life. No one brought up anything touchy of course.

"Yeah uh..." Tommy mumbled. "I got into a fight at school a few days back..."

"YOU DIDN'T TELL US?" Techno was quick to stand. Wilbur giggled.

"He told someone..." Wilbur smirked. Both elders gaped at him. Tommy hid back. "It was because someone was making fun of your hair Techno." The pinkette in turn sat down and everyone resumed. Soon they were just sitting around enjoying each other's company. All of them knew it wouldn't last but wished it would. First came the drowsiness. Everyone was quick to be a bit more on edge as Wilbur participated less in conversation and slumped in his chair.

"Maybe we should go back to the couch," Phil recommended. The brunette would've disagreed yet when he opened his mouth no words exited. So with heavy reluctance they were back on the couch. Phil sat on one of the separate couches as the 3 youngers took control of the main one. Tommy had curled up in Wilbur's lap as the brunette leant on the eldest. Tommy had grown tears deep behind his eyes and Techno hadn't looked at either boys as if trying to keep it together.

Phil looked on in sad eyes. He felt as if he had failed them. It was his fault. Maybe if the had gone to a better person this wouldn't be happening. Minutes after Phil's guilt took control Wilbur had gone limp in Techno's arms. The pinkette exhaled shakily as he held his brother's head in his lap, combing through his hair softly. Tommy had started sobbing quietly as he half on half beside his brother. Phil couldn't look anymore. It was heart wrenching and he had only known these boys for at least a month.

Knocking at the door awoke Phil from his spiral. He stood up taking his time to reach the door. Opening it he found Kristin. He seemed confused until she held out a jar to him. It was filled with money and he was shocked to the core.

"I have the money," she whispered. Techno who was intrigued already saw and was relaying the news to Tommy.

"B-But..." Phil pushed it back. "I-"

"I don't care what you have to say," she murmured tears in her eyes. "Lets go to the doctors." Phil nodded tears brimming along his eyes. The two adults rushed inside getting things together.

"Boys get some proper clothes on!" Phil raced upstairs to put everything together that they might need. Kristin kneeled down beside Techno and Wilbur. She smiled softly, a smile from an angel if you may. She placed a hand on Wilbur's shoulder and shook gently. Techno started whispering calm and soft words to his unconscious brother. Phil came downstairs with Tommy who had started crying more out of relief.

"Wilbur..." Techno sighed. "I need you to wake up nerd... We've got something to do..." Techno combed his hand through the brown hair once again before the brunette groaned showing he was conscious again. Kristin smiled again as the brunette was forced to sit upright by his brother.

"Whaaaatttt..." Wilbur murmured blinking slowly. Techno smiled holding his tears to himself.

"We got the money," Techno ruffled the brunette's hair as the boy gaped at him.

"You..." Wilbur held a hand to his mouth looking over to Kristin putting it together in his head. She nodded slowly.

"Come on," Phil beckoned from the doorway. "No time like the present." Techno chuckled nervously. Kristin and Techno helped Wilbur to his feet only for him to begin to sway. Techno held him upright and Phil was quick to their side. And they began their pitiful walk to the local doctors. After many painful moments of awkwardly rushing they had arrived. Phil and the boys took seats in the waiting room.

Phil went to see how Kristin was going only to find her furiously barking at the doctors. Something along the lines of 'HE'S GONNA DIE YOU SELFISH PRICKS!' give or take. As the doctors scrambled like headless chickens Phil made eye contact with her. She gave him a smirk and he had to hide his reddened face as he sat back down beside the boys.

"How long will it be?" Techno asked Kristin as she sat next to Phil.

"They said as pick as possible," she shrugged. "In all honesty they will have to run blood tests and other bests to fully diagnose him before we can get the treatment." Techno inhaled sharply after her analogy. They weren't in fact in nearly immediately and instead had been waiting for 7 minutes now.

"What's taking so long?" Tommy commented nervously. Phil shrugged and both adults got up to investigate. Once they had come back with a doctor, they found the scene they were trying to avoid. Wilbur lay unconscious on his older brother's lap as Tommy had started to shake him. Techno was frozen in shock starring at his brother as if he didn't know what to do. Phil was quickly next to them. He fixed his fingers tightly into the teenagers wrist.
