Phil POV

Phil knocked on Tommy's door again, glancing at the clock. "Tommy, you're going to be late! You have five minutes before Wilbur comes in!" he announced, seeing the mischievous smirk of the brunette out of the corner of his eye.

A muffled shout came from inside, something sounded like, "I'm up! I'm up!" Phil chuckled, walking back towards the kitchen. Tommy had been distant lately, spending every moment he could in his room. He was worried about the blonde. Ever since he had gone to therapy the afternoon before, he had barely spoken a word to any of them.

"Why did you have to tell him?" Wilbur complained beside him, slumping down at the table. "Now he knows the surprise!"

"It makes him go faster, Wil." he ruffled the teen's hair, moving towards the stove to fix Tommy a plate of breakfast.

"I didn't get that warning." the brunette mumbled, laying his head dramatically on the table.

Techno laughed beside him, glancing up from his book for a moment. He ate another bite of his waffle, trying to sneak the fact that he wasn't using a fork. He knew Phil would scowl him, but that didn't stop him. His eyes went back to the book in front of him.

Tommy's door opened a few minutes later, revealing the late teen. The blonde had dark moons resting under his eyes, evidence of his habit of late nights recently. He wore his usual outfit, a red hoodie with jeans. He never seemed to wear short sleeves anymore. It was strange, since the days were reaching the end of May.

"Come get some breakfast Toms." Phil urged, holding out a plate of fresh waffles to him.

Tommy reluctantly grabbed the plate, looking down nervously. His eyes drifted towards the clock on top of the oven. "Are you sure I have time to eat this? I would hate to make us late. And I don't want to waste any food." His voice trailed off, too lost to even comprehend.

Techno frowned, exchanging a look with Phil. It was clear they were thinking the same thing. Why was he acting like this? He hadn't been this nervous in a long time, since before Phil adopted him.

Phil shook his head firmly, offering a warm smile like always. "I want you to eat Toms. I've been worried about you lately."

Tommy's eyes widened at his words, his fingers nearly dropping the plate in his hand. "How... how did you find out?" he whispered, his face paling.

Immediately Phil stepped towards the blonde, filled with concern. "Tommy, what are you talking about?" he spoke gently, not wanting to scare him. Tommy wouldn't tell him anything if he was frightened. "Tommy I'm not mad at you." he murmured, watching the tension leave the blonde.

Tommy abandoned his plate on the counter, clenching his hands into fists to stop them from shaking. Without a word, he walked away, leaving them all in a state of confusion.

Wilbur was the first to say what they were all thinking.

"What just happened?"
