Cheater-[TomBoo]

Chapter 9

(Time traveling to the past)
Tommy’s POV..
TW: Mentions of vapes, underage drinking and smoking, stealing, death, murder, blood, guns.

“Tubbo, why are you doing this?” I asked my “friend” standing against the wall with a vape in his hand. “Schlatt had one, I thought I might give it a try! Do you want to take a hit?” Tubbo asked me. I knew it was a bad idea, I don’t know why Tubbo thought it might be a good idea. “I don’t know if this is a good idea Tubbo, I mean this is not healthy, what if we get hooked on it!” I said, trying to convince Tubbo that we shouldn’t do it. “I’ll tell Phil what we did at the playground.” Tubbo said, now blackmailing me.

Tubbo was my only friend, did I really want to lose him? No, I didn't want to lose him! I grabbed the vape out of his hands and inhaled, not knowing what I’m doing and started choking on the smoke that went into my throat. “Do you need a drink, big man?” Tubbo asked, giggling at my attempt. I nodded my head and reached my hand out towards him.

Tubbo gave me a red party cup that was filled with what smelled to be vodka. We were too young to drink, but we were also too young to smoke but that didn’t stop Tubbo. I started to feel a little light headed, maybe the drink wasn’t vodka and it was a poison? Was Tubbo trying to poison him? Things started to move around the room at a slow pace but picked up speed rapidly then black out.

I remember waking up in the same alleyway. Did Tubbo leave him? “Hey kid!” a raspy voice shouted from behind me. “You shouldn’t be here you know! You will end up like this guy.” The man with the smiley mask said as he pointed toward the man bleeding out on the other end of the alley. The man looked familiar but he couldn’t put his fingers on it. The man looked like Tubbo but I knew it wasn’t Tubbo, cause Tubbo was not that tall.

“Tommy, please protect Tubbo-” The man on the floor practically begged for Tommy to listen. “SHUT UP! You don’t deserve to live! All you did was cause pain in my business!” the masked man said, raising the gun from his side and pointing it at the man.

Was that Schlatt? Why would Schlatt care about Tubbo tho? But who else would care about Tubbo, his only family left was Schlatt. I was cut out of my thoughts by a loud bang which was followed up by a scream. I looked over to see more than before. The man was dead, there was no way he could have survived that.

I knew I would be next, and I felt like I should have done something to help Schlatt tho. But it was all the past and there was nothing Tommy could do about it except move on. Tommy leaped off the ground running in the opposite direction the man was standing, which happened to lead to the main road. Wilbur’s friend Niki owned a bakery which was opened late on saturday, it should still be open and if not then Im dead.

“Get back here kid!” The smiley man yelled following not far behind me. You could hear the footsteps getting farther apart meaning that Tommy was getting distance. Tommy wasn’t far away from the bakery, which was good cause he still felt like shit after breathing in whatever was in that vape.

Tommy saw the bakery after what seemed to be 5 minutes, but for him it felt like hours. His breathing was so out, he felt tired and dizzy. Running across the road which was empty, he reached out to grab the handle of the bakery door.
It was locked! He was now totally fucked, he knew Niki wouldn’t stay to long after her shift. Footsteps came from the alleyway in between the bakery and the postal office. Tommy was prepared for death, and he welcomed it with open arms.
