alliums

ranboo's pov

i woke up, feeling a set of arms around my waist, gently keeping me close to whoever was sleeping behind me. i turned around with a grunt and felt the person's breath on my face. being half asleep, i focused on the strawberry scent in their breath, didn't bother to open my eyes and went back to sleep.

after what felt like five minutes, an annoying and loud sound started ringing.

'argh,' i groaned as i heard my alarm go off. i opened my eyes and saw an annoyed Ranboo pull the blanket over his face. realising that my arms were still around his waist, i pulled them out from under him and turned off the alarm. 'good morning, Ranboo,' i said, feeling a bit of blush creep onto my face. 

'tommy?' Ranboo said groaning.

'yeah-' i got cut off by Ranboo pulling me down for a hug. 

'stay,' Ranboo said, knitting his eyebrows together and pulling me closer to him. 'but i need to go  and make breakfast,' i said, trying to push away from him but failing miserably. i couldn't tell because of how skinny he looks but he has a really strong grip. i sighed. 'do you want your waffles or not?' 'waffles later, cuddles now,' Ranboo said, tightening his grip. 'okay okay, we'll cuddle for another half hour, how about that?' i asked. i took him loosening his grip on me as a yes.

i started to lie down with my back against my bed so that i could look at my phone without becoming sore once i get up later. I went to my discord and started looking at some of my past messages...

i opened my eyes to see Tommy looking at his phone and opening some of his DMs. i knew that it was wrong to look through private conversations but my curiousity got the best of me. i looked up at the top left-hand corner of the screen and saw the contact name as Lillie. as he scrolled higher and higher, trying to re-read past messages, i saw many hearts being passed from Lillie to Tommy and from Tommy back to Lillie. 

maybe they're siblings. siblings would send hearts to each other from time to time wouldn't they?

but then something caught my eye, Tommy had started crying softly when i wasn't looking, he now had a stream of tears flowing down to his ear. before i knew it, i was hugging Tommy tighter in comfort.

Tommy chuckled, 'you peeked, didn't you?' 

i didn't answer.

'why don't we go outside for today?' he asked. i just nodded while nuzzling more into the crook of his neck. 'i'm going to go shower now, okay?' 

i whined as his warmth left me and he stood up to go outside.

i looked back just before leaving the room and saw Ranboo whine and pull the blanket up over his face. 'i'll be back in a few minutes,' i said. 'you better,' he replied, pulling the blanket back down and pouting. 

- 10 minutes later  -

i came out of the shower and walked towards my room while drying my hair off with a towel.

i heard the door creak open and turned around to see Tommy shirtless. he was wet and had a towel around his waist but what really caught my eye were the scars littered across his front.  they were marks of all sorts, some probably from a knife, others from a whip. some of the scars looked like they had healed after a few years but a few of them looked more recent. 

'who hurt you?' i asked, my face dark.

'nobody that you need to worry about, besides, they're in another country and don't even have any way of contacting me,' Tommy replied, not showing any form of sadness or anger.

he then changed into a pair of denim jeans and a purple hoodie. 

'would you like to go outside for today?' Tommy asked. 'where are we going?'

'into the garden,' he said, smiling.

'what's a gard-' i got cut off by Tommy grabbing my hand and pulling me out of the house. he then stopped abruptly so i opened my eyes and looked at where we were. it was beautiful, there were patches of different types of 'flowers' everywhere. i had never seen a real flower before. my grandfather had said that earth's 'flowers' was no doubt one of the most beautiful things that he had ever seen. he described them as a smaller version of the sun, except for the fact that they didn't give off a lot of heat and weren't as bright as one. 

i looked through the field of flowers and found my favourite type of flower out of all of them. the flower was an incredibly pretty shade of purple and had a somewhat round shape to it. i pulled Tommy over to that particular patch of flowers and sat down.

as i was looking at the flowers, Ranboo pulled my arm and sat down, bringing me with him. 'what is it?' i asked, confused.

'what are these?' he asked back.

i turned around to see what he was looking at and saw my favourite type of flower. 

'those are alliums,' i said, laughing slightly as he looked at them in awe, his tail wagging as if he were a dog that finally got to see its owner after a few weeks of loneliness. 'they're pretty,' he said, not taking his eyes off of them. 

i plucked out some of the alliums and asked Ranboo to come back inside as we still had to eat our lunch. before making lunch, however, i put the alliums into a green vase and poured some tap water into it. i then brought it to Ranboo who was sitting at our dining table, obviously sad that he didn't get to stay outside with the flowers.

i saw Tommy walk up to me with his hands behind his back.

'what are you holding?' i asked, still mad that i couldn't go back outside. without saying anything, Tommy showed what he had been holding and left me in shock. i ran up to him and hugged him, careful not to hit the vase of alliums. 'thank you,' i said.

'n-no problem,' Tommy replied, blushing slightly. 

i chuckled, cute.
