Tommy POV

Tommy couldn't believe it. He was going to see a new year in this house. He still hadn't been kicked and a part of him was starting to believe that he never would. Was it possible that he actually had a family? Was it possible that these people actually cared about him?

They certainly acted like they did.

Tommy had never met a father figure like Phil. Phil actually took time to get to know him and to make sure he was always comfortable. He was constantly checking up on him and making sure he wasn't overworking himself. Sure, his rules could a little annoying but just the thought that someone was trying to protect him brought a smile to his face.

Tommy had never had brothers like Techno and Wilbur.

He had never had someone like Techno. Someone who was willing to put himself in harm's way just to protect him. Tommy never missed the looks of pride Techno would give him when he did something great. Even something as simple as finishing a hard math problem. Techno always made him feel safe, a feeling he had barely felt before.

He had never been so close to someone like Wilbur. Wilbur truly cared about him. He was always worrying and stressing about what Tommy was doing, but not in an annoying way. It genuinely felt like Wilbur was scared to lose him. Wilbur protected Tommy, much like Techno. But the best thing about Wilbur was that Tommy felt like he could tell him anything. A lot of the time the two stayed up late just talking about everything. It felt nice to have someone who would actually listen to him.

"You okay Toms?" a voice took him out of his thoughts.

Tommy looked up, surprised to see Wilbur staring at him, a concerned spark in his eyes. Tommy nodded, leaning against the brunette as they continued to watch the TV.

"Is something wrong Tommy?" this time it was Techno who spoke. He was on Tommy's other side, glancing down at the blonde.

Tommy shook his head, burying his head in Wilbur's chest. He felt fingers gently comb through his hair, urging him to relax. He melted into the touch, closing his eyes.

"Tommy... there's something we wanted to talk to you about..." the tone of Phil's voice made the boy whip towards the man, tears already threatening to fall. He knew that the tone... Were they getting rid of him? They couldn't! They loved him right?

Immediately Wilbur took note of Tommy's panic, wrapping his arms around the blonde. "Tommy-"

"Please don't send me back!" Tommy burst into tears, his emotions finally bubbling over. "This is the first family I've actually felt apart of-f and I-I don't think I'll ever find a better one! Please-e! I love you guys so much-h" he sobbed, holding his face in his hands. His voice was barely above  a whisper. "Do you not love me-e?"

The three family members, looked at each other, their hearts breaking at the sight. Tommy really thought they were getting rid of him. If only he knew that they couldn't live without him.

"Tom-"

"I'll do anything! Please-e!" he whimpered.

"Tommy please listen-"

"I-"

"What Phil is trying to say is that we love you so much Tommy." Wilbur cut him off, giving him a sad smile. He kissed the boy's forehead, pulling him to his chest.

"We couldn't live without you Toms. And we don't ever want to." Techno rested his hand on the blonde's knee, a simple reminder that he was there. 

Phil stood up, kneeling in front of the blonde. "What I was going to say, is I was wondering if you wanted to officially become a part of the family. Do you want to get adopted?"

Tommy stared up at him, his jaw dropping. They actually wanted to adopt him. Was he dreaming. "You... you mean it?" his voice cracked as he sniffed.

"Of course Tommy." Phil reassured. "You're my son either way, I just wanted to make it official."

"You're-e not going to send me back?" Tommy was still trying to process this information.

"Why would you ever think that?" the man asked, a smile on his face. "I promised you, didn't I? I promised as soon as you stepped into this house that you were a part of this family no matter what." He paused, locking eyes with the boy. "So what do you think?"

"Yes... yes! Yes! Yes!" Tommy shouted, pulling out of Wilbur's arms and nearly tackling Phil. 

Phil stumbled before regaining his balance. He hugged the blonde close to him, resting his chin on his head. "I love you so much Tommy." he whispered, a joyful tear slipping from his eye.

"I love you too Dad." Tommy smiled back, empathizing the last word.

Phil's heart melted at the word, more tears dropping. 

Wilbur and Techno chuckled before joining the hug, making their family complete.

It was the start of a new chapter, that was sure to be a good one.
