starry nights - a (platonic) bee duo fanfic

[2]

Tubbo was thrown awake when he was dragged out of bed by Tommy since Tommy had been screaming yet again. He opened his eyes a crack and that's when he saw Wilbur come out of his room, scolding Tommy for waking him. Tommy immediately ran into the kitchen, cursing Wilbur out. Wilbur quickly chased after. Tubbo let out a chuckle and wiped the sleep from his eyes, yawning.

He sat up and stretched, starting to stand. He didn't even live here, but it was more like a home to him then his own home was at this point. Speaking of home, he'd probably have to call soon or his parents would get upset.

Tubbo made his way into the kitchen and laughed when he saw Philza sitting with dark bags under his eyes as Tommy was screaming about how Wilbur started it. Philza really did look dead inside.

Tubbo walked over to the fridge and immediately went to grab milk for cereal. He knows this place like the back of his hand because of how much he's been here. In fact, he's been here more than his own house so far into the year. It was funny.

He shook the thought from his head and went to grab the cereal and poured it in. He soon heard the loud turn quiet as Tommy and Wilbur went go dead quiet. The reason why was because Philza finally had enough and said that he was gonna go and disown them both and then get Techno if they don't shut up.

Tubbo laughed and heard Philza say "Good". Tubbo quickly finished making the cereal and put all of the stuff away, going over to the table and starting to eat. He was planning on calling his sister after he finished eating.

As he ate, he watched Tommy go and grab his Nanica Smitch before sitting down next to Tubbo. Tubbo glanced over at what he was doing and saw he was playing Creature Street. He smiled small and went back to eating. Tommy really loved this game so much.

He quickly finished his cereal and stood, walking over to the sink to put his dishes in there. He then went back to Tommy's room, grabbing his phone and starting to call his sister.

"Hello?"

"Hey Lani"

"What happened this time?"

Tubbo laughed "Nothing happened. I called to tell you to tell mother dearest and father dearest that I'm alive and well" Lani said "Alright. Well.. You better come home soon though." Tubbo blinked "Why? What happened?"

Lani slightly chuckled "I'm pretty sure they're gonna turn your room into an indoor gym if you continue staying at Tommy's house for days on end again" Tubbo rolled his eyes "I haven't even stayed here for that long"

"You've been there for 5 days already, Tubbo."

".. And?"

Lani sighed "I'll go and tell mum and dad to turn your room into an indoor gym now" Tubbo fake gasped "Don't you dare. I'll ask Phil to drop me off soon" Lani hummed "You better or I won't hesitate next time" Tubbo rolled his eyes "Whatever. See you later" Lani slightly chuckled "See you" Tubbo ended the call.

Tommy walked into the room and groaned dramatically "Wilbur's such a bitch. He took my Smitch" Tubbo laughed at Tommy and Tommy growled "It's not funny! He stole the only thing that makes me happy!" Tubbo laughed even more. Tommy pouted and flopped on the bed.

Tubbo hummed "You wanna play Minceraft, big man?" Tommy quickly sat up, his mood changing "Yeah" Tubbo laughed hard at Tommy's sudden mood change.

Tommy quickly made his way over to his desk, grabbing a rolling chair for Tubbo to sit. Tubbo sat beside Tommy and they both started to boot up Minceraft on their computers, both boys happily chatting.

"My world?" Tommy asked, glancing over at Tubbo. Tubbo nodded and Tommy started to log onto his world, Tubbo logging on soon after. As soon as Tubbo logged on, he started dying of laughter at the statute he had built - before he logged off - standing before him. It was an upside down T statue.

Tommy quickly found Tubbo in the game and started to tear down the statue

"Hey!"

"What?"

"You torn down all of my hard work" Tubbo said, acting to be sad. Tommy just rolled his eyes. Tubbo punched Tommy's minceraft character before quickly running off chuckling. Tommy chased after.

Both boys played for a while, Tubbo nearly forgetting to stop by his home. By the time Tubbo started getting bored, it had been nearly 2 or 3 hours later. Tubbo glanced at the time and his eyes grew wide when he saw it was 16:00. "Shit." Tommy glanced over "What?" Tubbo mumbled "I promised that I was going to be back by 1400"

Tommy looked over at the time "Can't you tell her you'll be for a while longer?" Tubbo said "Yes, but I've been here longer than I've been at my own house." Tommy groaned "I'll ask Phil to take you to your house" Tubbo mini cheered and watched Tommy leave.

Tubbo sat for a little bit before Tommy came back into the room "I'll help you gather your stuff. Phil said he'll be able to get you back" Tubbo nodded and so they both started to pack up Tubbo's stuff.

Once they both finished, they carried Tubbo's stuff outside and tossing them in the trunk. Tubbo then climbed into the car and Tommy slid in afterwards. Philza turned towards them "Everything ready, mate?" Tubbo nodded and Philza turned back around, starting the drive.

Tubbo looked out of the window, humming as he watched the scenery pass by. Even though he was really happy with Tommy being his best friend, something always felt... Off. Like Tubbo was incomplete. Like he was missing one single puzzle piece. He never knew what it was.

He wished he knew. He had always felt this way as long as he could remember. It was.. Strange. No one he's ever met felt this way... But it was nothing. Right..? He watched the trees past by and he got lost in thought

Tubbo laid, hugging his sides as he was curled up fetal position. He had been most likely crying just a few minutes prior. He heard someone enter the room, but he didn't even bother to look. He couldn't bring himself to look. He knew how bad it would hurt in the end.

His bad thoughts had kicked in. He felt the person wrap their arms around Tubbo's waist, rubbing small circles on Tubbo's tummy. Tubbo let out a shaky breath and didn't say anything. He didn't need to. The silence with this person made it feel comfortable.. It reminded Tubbo that they wouldn't leave.

After a while, Tubbo rolled over and was met with a chest wearing a suit. He dug his face into the person's chest and hugged them tightly.

"I'm sorry.."

"No need to apologize, Bo..."

Tubbo snapped out of his thoughts when Philza parked in front of his house "We're here mate" Tubbo nodded "Thanks Phil for letting me practically live in your house" He flashed Philza a smile and climbed out of the car with his stuff.

He waved Tommy goodbye and said "We gonna call later?" Tommy smirked "Fuck yeah we are" Tubbo laughed and said "Good big man"

Tubbo watched them drive off before he turned on his heel and made his way to his front door. He knocked and immediately the door opened. He walked in and saw Lani standing there

"I see you've come back"

Tubbo nodded "I did. Because I want to keep my room" Lani stared at him blankly "Okay" she then shut the door and returned back to her room. Tubbo sighed happily and made his way to his room.

He shut his door and set his things down on the bed, laying back. He stared up at the ceiling and began thinking about what that thought was. Who was that guy who was hugging him? And why was Tubbo crying? And why were they wearing a suit..?

So many questions. Not enough answers. He hasn't had a thought like that in a while. At least not for a month. Usually it was just something small like their eyes - which was a beautiful green and majestic red - or their laugh. This time it was a full blown scene.

After a while of being stuck in his thoughts, he slid out of bed and decided to head down to the park to clear his mind. He walked out of his room and shouted that he was heading to the park and would be home soon. Lani shouted an answer back and Tubbo left the house.
