My heart is a battle field, broken and covered in damage.

My heart is a small cafe in a small town, filled with happiness by those who come by.

My heart is a morgue, the smell of chemicals and the horrible sights to see.

My heart is a bed on a Sunday morning, warm and leaving you to feel safe.

My heart is filled with tragedy and yet so much good.

But no matter what, my heart is open to you, it welcomes you with a smile and reminds you that you are alive. My heart will always have a place for you, even if you decide you do not want it anymore.

My heart will trace out every part of you to keep you with me when you disappear. You will always have a home in my heart.

Please come home

"Liam!" Tommy yelled, running forward out into the rain. He felt sick to his stomach and he felt like maybe he was dreaming, but Wilbur had just woken him up so he knew he wasn't dreaming.

Techno stepped aside as Tommy ran up and hugged Liam tightly, just for Liam to hug him back twice as hard. Tommy heard footsteps behind them and Tubbo's voice shouted out.

"NO FUCKING WAY!" Before they both felt two more sets of arms wrap around them, joining the hug.

"Hi guys." Liam said softly and Tommy felt tears begin to mix with the rain pouring down on all of them. How was this happening? This couldn't be real could it?

"How the fuck are you here?" Ranboo asked and Liam chuckled lightly.

"It's a long story." Liam said as he pulled away from them. Tommy stared Liam up and down, he looked the same as Tommy last remembered, but also older. It made since but at the same time it didn't. He shouldn't be older, he shouldn't even be here.

"You fucking died on our bathroom floor how they fuck are you even fucking here?" Tubbo asked. Liam opened his mouth to respond but stopped as he looked up at the front door. Phil stood there, staring at him. They made eye contact and for a moment it felt like the world slowed down.

"Hi Phil." Liam said softly. Phil wordlessly walked forward and enveloped him into a hug.

"You're dead, you're dead and I'm dreaming but I don't want to wake up." Phil said in a voice barely above a whisper, and he truly was saying what everyone was thinking. Liam shook his head.

"I'm alive, I'm here and I'm alive and you're awake." Liam said in response. God it was so strange to hear Liam being the one to say those words.

"Can we please know how the fuck this happened?" Tommy asked and Liam nodded pulling away. Phil was crying like the rest of them were. Techno stepped forward a bit, drawing the attention to him.

"Can we go inside? It's pouring out here." Techno said and they all agreed, all of them walking back in where Wilbur was waiting with a few towels.

"Thought they'd be nice since we're all soaked." Wilbur joked, though no one laughed.

"Yeah, thanks Wil." Liam said and you could feel the tension in the room from the nickname.

"Okay, you, explain now." Tubbo demanded as Ranboo wrapped a towel around him.

"Okay, it's a long story and you just gotta believe me, okay?" Liam said as Phil directed them into the dining room so they could all sit at the table. He turned up the thermostat before he also took a seat at the table. Everyone was staring at Liam.
