Wilbur stared out the window. Why would his younger brother run away? What reason had Tommy had to run away from his entire family? Wilbur looked over the bucket list once more.

Tommyinnits Bucket List of Things to do before I die:
-See Tubbox and Ranboob

-Stay in the Manifold Hotel
-Learn guitar
-Earn a Greek name
-Adopt a cat and name it Clementine
-Watch the fireworks at Manifold Hotel
———
The first one was crossed out. Dang it. They were too late. Wilbur scanned over the rest.
His eyes landed on the 'Learn guitar'
He had promised to teach Tommy guitar as soon as he graduated highschool. But how could he learn if he ran away? Wilbur sighed again. What were his motives?
"Wil. Are you ok?" Phil asked confused from the driver seat.
Techno was asleep in the back. He was much more of a night owl anyway.
"Yeah.. I'm fine. We missed Tommy and Purpled, they just left." Wilbur set his phone down.
"No matter, we'll catch up with them eventually. We can just stop and rest at Ranboo and Tubbo's house for the night." Phil looked exhausted.
"No! We have to keep going- he could get hurt or kidnapped or worse! We can catch him and Purpled at Dantdm's meet and greet-" Wilbur began again. He was worried sick.
"No. Wilbur, techno is bound to be exhausted. He had a full day of college and we've been driving for 3 and a half hours. Tommy May not be a smart kid but Purpled is. They'll be ok." Phil looked tired. He looked really tired.
Wilbur gave in. He was also tired. But his dear little brother, the one who begged to sleep with him during thunderstorms. Tommy was still scared of thunderstorms, how many other things can Tommy be scared of in the world without Wilbur there to protect him.
Tommy was afraid of being alone, he was afraid of heights and flying on planes, he was afraid of guns and yelling. He was claustrophobic, he always was. His dear brother. No one knew him better than Wilbur. How could he just give up on Tommy like this? He was so fragile, so sweet, so bright and warm.
But he couldn't do this to Techno and Phil. If he wanted to find his little brother he would have to go alone. He made his decision. His little brother needed him. How could he push him away?
He grabbed his headphones and plugged it into his phone. For the next half an hour he would drown his thoughts in music. He clicked his playlist. The first song he knew. Of course he knew it. It was one Tommy showed him, it showed him a look into his brothers mind. That was the day Wilbur decided to be there forever and always for his little brother.
The Song rang through his ears as the soft music played. There were specific lyrics that stuck out to him though. These triggered thoughts of Tommy everytime.
I only eat to fill me up
I only sleep to rest
I need a love just like you gave
I haven't found it yet, found it yetOf course he had to be there for Tommy. He loved Phil and Techno but it was obvious. Even if Phil tried to deny it.
Phil favored Techno.
Techno could only do what any other person would do under pressure. Try and please him. Which was fine. Of course it was fine.
Wilbur was fine. That was.. until Tommy was involved. Phil was satisfied, with Techno. Wilbur was fine until he realized how it affected Tommy. That's why he had to protect him. He always had to.
He felt someone nudge him and opened his eyes to see the car had stopped. They must've been at Tubbo and Ranboo's.
Phil had gotten out of the car and was shaking Techno awake in the backseat. Wilbur unbuckled, he made a note to himself that Phil always kept his keys in the car. With that, Wilbur got out of the car.
Phil knocked on the door, which revealed a tall dirty blonde boy.... Heck he was taller than wilbur. That was unusual.
"H-hello?" The boy stammered out.
Phil opened his mouth to speak but Wilbur stepped in. "We were looking for my brother Tommy, he stopped by here."
"You just missed him about an hour ago." Another voice came from behind the tall boy. The Short brunette stepped out. That must be Tubbo.
Tommy has always had online friends and spoke highly about them. Especially the 'short psychopath' named Tubbo. Wilbur made note of this.
"Ah, we were hoping we could stay the night since Techno over here is tired." Phil smiled politely.
You were hoping.
"Of course. Come on in." Ranboo stepped back and we walked past him.
"Would you like cake?" Tubbo held up a cake on a plate with a few forks and Techno volunteered to take it.
He took the fork and took a bite. He made a face of slight distaste. "This is overdone..." Techno said quietly.
Phil laughed and tubbo stuck out his tongue. "You're just picky"
Eventually the laughing died out and Phil responded. "I think we should go get shut eye, right mate?" Techno nodded.
"We have some guest bedrooms upstairs if that's ok." Ranboo responded and Wilbur rushed upstairs.
He walked into an bedroom he assumed was the guest bedroom because it was almost completely bare. Now all he had to do was wait. Wait for his dad and his brother to fall asleep.
Soon enough he heard footsteps walk upstairs and into some rooms he was unfamiliar with. Wilbur waited another 30 minutes for good measure and snuck out of the room.
He walked downstairs quietly and walked outside. He slid into the driver seat of Philza's car. His eyes landed on the keys and quickly grabbed them. He started the car and drove out of the driveway. He started driving away.
He did it. He would find his little brother no matter what. Even if it would kill him.
