Tommy POV

Tommy carefully wrapped his gift, wishing he could make it better. It wasn't good enough and he knew that. Techno would hate it. But no matter how much the blonde wanted to make it better, he just didn't have the time. The surprise party would be underway in a few hours.

"Tommy! Come help me!" a shout came from upstairs. Tommy gently grabbed his gift, sprinting upstairs to help his brother. He couldn't help but burst into laughter as soon as he saw him. 

Wilbur was standing on a ladder, struggling to keep his balance. "Don't you know how to use a ladder?" he giggled, helping to stabilize it. 

"I've never used a ladder before! I've never needed to!" Wilbur retorted, relaxing a bit. He help the banner up once more, struggling to tape it to the wall.

Tommy continued to laugh, only pausing when he heard a knock on the door. He quickly jumped up to get it, shouting, "Don't fall while I'm gone!" Wilbur muttered curses under his breath but Tommy pretended not to hear them. 

Opening the door, he grinned at the sight of Tubbo and Ranboo. "We're not late, are we?" Ranboo asked, nudging the brunette beside him. "Someone was still sleeping when I came to get him."

"You didn't tell me when you were coming to get me!" Tubbo retorted, folding his arms.

"I figured you would be awake! It's literally three in the afternoon!" 

Tommy laughed at their bickering, "Nope, you're actually early." He quickly let them in, closing the door behind them.

Tubbo immediately burst out laughing at the sight of Wilbur. "Never did I ever think I would see Wilbur Minecraft on a ladder!"

"Shut up and help me!" Wilbur rolled his eyes. Tubbo continued giggling as he moved towards the other decorations that needed to be put up. It was a few banners along with a bunch of balloons. 

Ranboo glanced towards Tommy, "What time do we need to be ready by?"

"Techno should be home around five." Tommy said, glancing towards the clock. Time was ticking down, they had a little over an hour left.

"We better finish decorating then." Ranboo rushed forward, grabbing a handful of balloons. He began blowing them up, trying not to laugh in between.

Another knock came from the door, which Tommy again rushed to get. This time it was Dream, George, Sapnap, and Karl. "Hey guys." he opened the door. The group shuffled past him, each one ruffling his hair. He groaned in annoyance before turning his attention to another car pulling up. This one was far more familiar, being his father's.

Phil waved at him, "Hey Toms! How are the preparations going?" 

Tommy grinned, "We're making good time." Phil walked up the steps, wrapping an arm around his son. "You won't believe who's on a ladder." 

The man's eyes widened. "Oh no." He laughed, running a hand through his hair. He turned towards the blonde, watching him carefully. "How did your gift turn out?" 

The night before, Tommy had come to him looking for advice. He had explained his idea to Phil who had encouraged him to go for it.

Tommy bit his lip nervously. "I'm not sure... I don't think he's going to like it."

Phil rolled his eyes, looking down at his son. "I think you'd be surprised." He ruffled the boy's hair, earning a groan. "Put a little faith in yourself. I'm sure Techno is going to love it."

"But what if..."

"Don't do that." the man shook his head. "Anything you give him, he will love it." Tommy sighed, finally agreeing. "Now, shall we go make sure Wilbur hasn't fallen to his death?"

"Well Tubbo, Ranboo, Karl, George, Sapnap, and Dream are there." 

"Now I'm even more worried." The two of them laughed, finally making their way into the house. Phil immediately took control of the operation, making it more efficient.

A few more people arrived, including, Niki, Skeppy, Bad, and Schlatt. It was very chaotic with them popping balloons and creating a mess. Time flew by and before they knew it, the clock struck five.

Everyone got in their spots, hiding around corners and behind the couches. Five minutes passed with nothing and Tommy couldn't help but be confused. Techno was never late. So why was he?

The answer was immediately clear as soon as the door opened. There was a pause before everyone jumped out, shouting, "SURPRISE!"

Tommy's heart stopped at the sight of him. Techno stood there, tears running down his face. His neatly braided hair was a mess, with sweat dripping down his neck. The dark bags under his eyes from the night before were even worse.

There was a split second before Techno turned around and raced out the door. 

The group stood there, unsure of what to do. Tommy was the first to move, quickly grabbing his gift and racing after them. Techno had been there for all of Tommy's rough moments.

It only felt right for him to do the same.
