Wilbur POV
Me and Tommy were hanging out today, he didn't have anything planned so he came over. He called me today and wanted to quote on quote "hang with a friend" but Tommy should know by now that I'm not that emotionally blind, I could tell he had sadness strained in his voice.When Tommy arrived we hugged each other, but Tommy tensed up. I assumed he had just gotten uncomfortable so I pulled away shortly after, he greeted me and kicked off his shoes and took off his jacket.
Tommy was now currently sitting on my couch petting Daphne (the cat) he mumbled to her as she crawled up in his lap. I walked over to Tommy, he had slightly puffy and red eyes, messy hair, and looked exhausted, I sighed, upset and concerned.
I sat down next to Tommy who was still.. venting? to my cat? I heard small whispers and murmurs, just bits and pieces of small sentences, "been tired lately" and "..hate..Will..sad" the last one pushed me over the edge, I needed to find a way to make Tommy feel better. I thought for a moment....I should help him regress!
I mentally smacked myself in the head, why didn't I think of this sooner, I'm Tommy's caregiver and even I didn't even realize that he hasn't regressed in who knows how long.
I decided to ask Tommy about it, "hey, toms", Tommy looked up at me, "yes will" he smiled tiredly, "why haven't u been regressing?" I questioned softly as Tommy visibly stiffened up.
Tommy looked down at his hands, "I can't, I've tried but I'm always busy now" he explained, "I also don't like bothering u, I do it enough when filming" he spoke ending the sentence with a small sad smile.
I frown, "Tommy, u could never bother me with your coping mechanism, it's there for a reason and that reason it to help" I try to explain but it comes off as me yelling, Tommy balled up his fists, "NO it's not okay! U always help me and I don't do anything to help u!" Tommy's voice cracked at the end and small tear drops rolled down his face. at this point Tommy stood up and I did as well.
"Tommy! U need to calm down! You've helped me more times than I can count! You've helped so many people, Tommy! your aloud to take a break"I exclaimed, tommy stared at me, until he finally broke.
Tears started rolling all the way down Tommy's face and hit the floor with subtly thuds, he shook slightly and wrapped his arms around himself. Crying turned to sobbing and I ran to Tommy, encasing him in a hug. Tommy crumbled into my arms, "shh, Tom's, your okay" Tommy's breathing became choppy.
Tommy continued to cry and I kept whispering to him until I felt his body completely slump onto mine and his knees give out, I held onto Tommy tightly and shuffled him over to my couch, I laid him down and placed the blanket over him.
As Tommy slept i made a plan to make Tommy regress, I knew that I shouldn't force Tommy to do anything, but he really needs to slip for the sake of his own mental health.
Time skip (cuddle with your fav stuffie or take a stress break, just make sure to take care of yourself <3)
Tommy POV
I awoke from.. Wilbur's couch? I looked around and tried to remember why I was here, it then hit me like a truck, Wilbur and I got into an argument and I must of passed out.
