Tommy POV-
"I'm not mad- fuck- I don't- I don't even think i'm hurting anymore, I mean, not because of you at least..", I said softly, Deo ran his fingers through my hair, as he was sat, flat against the brick wall, with me leaning on him, "I-...I'm not hurting because of you, or Luke or Bitzel, I just-", "It's what we did that hurt you, we made you feel abandoned, like the people of Lmanberg were more important to us than you", Deo said, I nodded, looking up at him, though this time, I was more in control of my emotions, It wasn't the pain he put me through, that I wanted him to see, I just wanted him to see- see something. I just wanted him to see I missed him. "We did it for you, I promise, I can't tell you exactly why we did it, but it was for you".
"I missed you, I really fucking missed you Deo", "I missed you too, Sunshine".
Nether of us mentioned the blood I continued to cough out.
Philza POV-
"What the hell- he did it again, that's like his trademark move or something, he always just- falls off roofs after a salute", I stumbled over my words, Wilbur stood still as a statue, pale and terrified, "Wilbur? You good man?", Wilbur opened his mouth, hesitating, "He smiles like Tommy", I froze in place, and Techno's shoulders tensed.
Oh god
They shared the same smile, the same goddamn smile that always looked forced, same tired eyes that looked ready to give up at any second, they even shared the same, deep but faded scar, that ran down there left eye.
The thought was like a wave crashing down on me
Are they the same person?
Niki POV-
"You wanted to talk?", "yeah, thanks for coming all the way here, Puffy", I said, She shrugged, "you said it was important, why wouldn't I come?", I looked away, "You've met Tommy?", "Yeah", Puffy said fondly, "He's a sweet kid, what about him?", I scowled, "I don't trust him, did you see how he was before and after his interview?? That's not just some 19 year old guy, I swear he's hiding something, something he knows the other Heroes wouldn't like", I said, Puffy's eyes widened, and she stared at me with the most hurt expression, "Niki..are you okay? Maybe your just not thinking straight, he hasn't done anything bad, has he?", "I- no, but-", "Then you can't go making assumptions, I'm not saying your wrong, but i'm also not saying your right, maybe you should try to bond with the kid after work hours, hell, maybe even during work hours. Get to know him first before you immediately decide he's a bad person, or untrustworthy", Puffy said, I bit my tongue. "Puffy-", "Please? Do it for me?", I sighed, "alright, i'll try", "Great! Now, it's like 2am, so maybe go get some rest, i'll see you tomorrow", Puffy smiled, I smiled back, and muttered a quick "goodnight", before I went and entered my bedroom, hearing Puffy close the front door of my house. I guess It won't hurt to get to know Tommy, besides, It can help me find out what he's hiding.
Tubbo POV-
I woke up grasping my bed sheets, turning to see Ranboo sleeping in the bed across from mine. I got up and headed down the hall of our apartment, I was about to go into the kitchen, when I heard the front door open, and people whispering. I ducked down behind the counter, my back pressed against the bottom cabinets. I reached for a frying pan, holding it close to my chest in case I had to knock out the intruders.
"Tubbo?", "Tommy? Oh my god, I thought we were getting robbed or something", I said, putting the pan down, "No, big man, it's just me, sorry, I hope I didn't wake you up", Tommy said quietly, "No, I was just getting up to get some water, why did you go out?..Were you-", "No, Tubs, I wasn't patrolling, I told you I wouldn't tonight, didn't I ? I just couldn't sleep, so I went out for a walk", Tommy explained simply with a shrug, I nodded slowly, "alright...was- was anybody else with you?", I asked slowly, remembering I heard two voices. Tommy nodded, "Yeah, ran into a friend, it's nothing", Tommy said it like it was a normal thing, but I could see he didn't want to talk anymore. "Alright, anyway, I'm tired, goodnight", "Goodnight Tubbo".
Tommy POV-
I watched Tubbo go to bed, and I stumbled into the bathroom, puking up all the blood I had been holding down. There was a burning sensation throughout my whole body. There always was. I was always either- on fire, or colder than snow.
I went into my own room, locking the door behind me.
This was happening so fast, it still is, It was only an hour ago, I talked down to the same Heroes i'm going to be sorting papers for in the morning, only an hour ago, I had shouted at one of my best friends, and my partner in crime, before sobbing like a child, telling him how much I missed him. And now I'm back here, the small vial, full of the red dangerous liquid that Deo had slipped into my pocket when he walked me to my apartment door.
"It won't get rid of the disease permanently, but it'll slow it down, just for enough time"
I probably sat there, back against my bedroom wall, for what felt like hours, but was really only about 30 minutes.
And I held the vial up to my lips, letting it pour down my throat.
