Family? [SBI Royalty AU]

Dad?

!!FOR DEATH, IMPLIED MURDER, GORE LIKE RN!!

"You did this to us." Clementine said, glaring at Tommy with cold and unforgiving eyes. There was a large gash though her chest and her clothes were covered in blood.

It was all his fault.

"I'm sorry."  He croaked, hardly being able to breathe through his own tears.

It was all his fault.

"I can't believe that I ever saw you as my son. You let us die."  His father sighed staring at him, eyes devoid of life, there was multiple stab wounds in his arms and stomach.

It was all his fault.

The sentence his father told him only made him sob more, begging for forgiveness.

It was all his fault.

"How could we ever forgive you for this? You killed us." His mother snapped.

It was all his fault.

"Tommy!" An unfamiliar voice rang out.

It.

Was.

All.

His.

Fault.

!!TW OVER!!

[Tommy's POV]

Tommy lurched forwards, clutching his chest and trying to breathe.

It was all his fault.

It was all his fault.

It was all his fault.

It was all his-

"-ommy? Mate can you hear me?" The voice asked, the boy turned his head round to see who was speaking to him. 

Phil was sitting on his knees next to him, face painted with worry and fear. 

"Phil?" He whispered, his throat was hoarse it hurt to speak.

"Yeah mate I'm here, I'm here." The king reassured him, lifting himself up off the floor to sit next to the shaking teen.

"I saw them Phil! They- they said it was my fault, I didn't mean for them to get killed!" Tommy was sobbing, grabbing at his shirt for any means of support.

"Shhhh, it's ok Toms, it's ok. It wasn't your fault." The older hummed, hugging the crying avian.

[Phil's POV]

Phil sat, holding the sobbing boy close to him. This poor, poor child. Blaming himself over something that was completely out of his control because he was too young to do anything.

The king knew Wilbur was standing by the door frame observing the 2, he knew that if he tried to help it would make it worse. Especially now. 

It was Wilbur who heard the screaming coming from the room Tommy was sleeping in, and instead of running to his aid immediately he got Phil. He said it might've made the situation worse. 

"Dad!" Wilbur screamed, rushing into Phil's office. His son was shaking, and breathing heavily. The king darted from his desk, running over to him.

"Wil what's happening are you ok?" The avian asked, holding the brunettes hands.

"Tommy's screaming, I don't know if he's ok or not I'm scared I'll make everything worse if I help!" Wilbur explained, squeezing his fathers hands.

"Stay here Wil, I'll go see what's happening." He instructed him before making his way to the room he had placed Tommy in. Maids and butlers bowed as he walked past, not noticing how much distress their king was in. Sure enough when he entered the room the boy was talking, not screaming, speaking but he was begging for forgiveness. 

The same phrase over and over.

"Please forgive me."

Tommy had calmed down by now, but was still clutching onto the kings cardigan.

"Dad?" The teen began, Phil almost started crying when he said that. 

"Yeah Toms?" He responded.

"I'm not mad at Wilbur. I want to forgive him but I think he'd think I was lying." The boy sighed.

"Trust me mate, he wants you to forgive him much more then you think." The king reassured, wearing a smile no one could see.

"I'm sorry." The younger avian said, seemingly out of no where.

"What for? There's nothing you should be apologize for." Phil asked.

"I feel like I've been a bother. First I jump out the window of the medical ward right in front of you, next I say you being a genuinely nice dude is an act, then I lock myself in my room and leave without letting you know to visit their grave and now I scare you by having some stupid nightmare." Tommy informed him. 

"You haven't been a bother mate, your just confused as to why we're being so nice to you. In your eyes you're unlovable which you aren't. You are so blinded by guilt and self-hatred you can't understand why people would consider being around you." The older told the boy in his arms.

"Yeah. I guess so." he hummed in response.
