"YOU WHAT?!!" Tommy yelled, Tubbo putting his hand to Tommy's mouth and dragged him to a quieter location.

"I think Ranboo is my soulmate?" Tubbo repeated, quieter this time so no-one could hear them.

"And what makes you think that?" Tommy asked, now more confused than ever.

"It's something that's also confusing to me, I don't really wanna go into explaining it, but I think he's my soulmate." Tubbo said, peeking around the corner of the wall, staring at Ranboo.

"No, you have to explain. You can't give me this information and then not tell me why you think that he's your SOULMATE!" Tommy grabbed Tubbo by the shoulders and forced him to look at him.

"Well, you know what he said yesterday, about someone being able to look him in the eyes."

"Yeah?" Tubbo tilted his head to the side.

"Well, when I got home, I googled it and the only people who can look him in the eyes is his soulmate, and you saw what happened. You froze, you literally just didn't move, yet nothing happened to me, at all..." Tubbo looked away from him and towards the wall which Ranboo was behind.

"Maybe you didn't loook him directly in the eyes, follow me, I need proof that this is true!" Tommy grabbed Tubbo's wrist and dragged him over to Ranboo.

"Hey, boo boy, look over here!" Tommy yelled, forcing Ranboo out of his sleeping spell. Tommy shoved Tubbo in front of Ranboo the second he opened his eyes, making them look at each other straight in the eyes.

But nothing happened.

"Hello to you too?" Ranboo looked over to Tommy, covering his lime green eye with his hair.

"You were right..." Tommy looked at Tubbo.

"I said so..." Tubbo looked at Tommy, tears brewing in his eyes as he walked away.

"Right about what?" Ranboo asked Tommy.

"Nothing... nothing..." Tommy said, shaking his head and walking away.

Tubbo ran off, past his classroom, past his friends and into the bathroom that he was in the previous day before. The bathroom that rarely anyone was in, the bathroom where he could be safe and cry out his feelings.

"Tubbo?" Someone walked into the bathroom, however the voice wasn't recognisable as Tubbo's ears were blocked by his hands.

"Who is it?" Tubbo managed to cry out.

"It's me, Wilbur..." Wilbur said, trying to open the door.

Tubbo was surprised that Wilbur was even here. I mean, they were friends but he was a teacher and it was weird any time they spoke. He was also Tommy's older brother so the only time they ever really got to talk was when Tubbo was at Tommy's, and even then Tommy would get embarrassed and find a way to get him to leave them alone. He was the father of Fundy and was given him at the age of 17, when Fundy was just a baby. Now, Wilbur was 25 and Fundy was 8. 

"What do you want Wilbur..." Tubbo asked, wiping his eyes and unlocking the door, peeking around the corner to see the older male, who had an expression of concern on his face.

"I know it's weird because I'm your teacher, but right now I'm here as your friend. I want to know what's wrong..." Wilbur looked Tubbo in the eyes. 

"Fine, come in..." Tubbo opened the door and let Wilbur squeeze into the bathroom then closing the door behind them.

"What happened..." Wilbur looked at Tubbo's tear stained cheeks and brought him into a warm, loving hug, making Tubbo cry again as it reminded him of Tommy's warm hugs.

"I found out who my soulmate is..."

"Tubbo, that's a good thing!" Wilbur grabbed Tubbo's shoulders and forced him to look him in the eyes.

"But it's not... I don't know if Tommy accepts who he is and I'm scared and confused..." Tubbo shook Wilbur's hand off of his shoulders.

"Tub, how would you know if he accepts who they are if you ran off before he could give you a reaction..." Wilbur knelt down to look at Tubbo. 

"TUBBO!" They heard someone yell from outside the bathroom, an obvious worried tone to his voice. 

"Go talk to him squirt..." Wilbur ruffled his hair and walked out of the bathroom. Tubbo took a deep breath and after a few seconds, he walked out of the bathroom. 

"Oh my god Tubbo!" Tommy turned his head towards Tubbo and ran to him, pulling him into a hug, his warm arms relaxing Tubbo immediately.

"I'm sorry..." Tubbo whispered.

"Tubbo, you shouldn't be saying sorry, I should. I didn't react the best and I know that scared you. When you ran away I realised what happened, and I should have been better..." Tommy looked at Tubbo. 

"It's ok, I know you were just shocked and I over reacted..."

"No, you didn't. It was my fault and I'm sorry. I obviously support you 100%, no matter what happens..." Tommy patted Tubbo's head, making him giggle. 

"Um excuse me, but what was that about?" They heard a deep-ish voice ask from behind them. They turned themselves around to see Ranboo behind them, a confused look on his face.

"Oh, um hi..." Tubbo said, looking away. 

"Hey boo boy. Tubbo wants to talk to you, I'll leave you alone." Tommy said, nudging Tubbo towards Ranboo slightly and walking off.

"You wanted to speak to me? Why?" Ranboo asked, looking down to Tubbo. 

"Um, lets go somewhere more private for this..." Tubbo grabbed Ranboo hand, holding it tightly and pulling him away. Even though Tubbo was significantly smaller than Ranboo, he was a lot stronger and managed to drag him half way across the school and into an empty classroom.

"You wanted to talk about something, and I'd like to know what that is now please..." Ranboo yanked his hand away from Tubbo, making his spin around to face him.

"You know what you said to me yesterday, about your... eyes..." Tubbo went to the window and opened it, letting in a cooling breeze.

Ranboo's face went white, the memories of yesterday with the same boy in front of him flooding back into his brain. Every little detail replaying over and over in his mind. 

"Oh god..." Ranboo put a hand over his mouth.

"I know what you were going to say, is it true, are we really... y'know..." Tubbo asked, turning back to Ranboo, a glint of hopefulness in his eyes. 

"I... I don't know..." Ranboo turned away, pretending to not know even though he knew full well, this boy in front of him was supposed to share a life with him. 

"Please, what song is playing for you, I really need to know..." Tubbo swirled Ranboo around, giving direct eye contact to him.

"No." Ranboo said trying to run away.

"Please Ranboo!" Tubbo yelled, grabbing onto his jacket, but Ranboo managed to get out of his grasp. 

"I'm sorry Tubbo, I'm not ready to know!" Ranboo yelled back to Tubbo, swinging the door and running out, slamming the door shut, leaving Tubbo in the empty classroom.
