A/N short pre-written chapter while I finish up a new ultra-long chapter. Also, PapaPuffy comforts C!Tommy
Tommy takes a deep breath before knocking on the door of an office he's been avoiding for so long. "Puffy?"
"Tommy? Oh my god, Tommy! You did it. But when was the last time you slept? Or ate? Or did something to keep you alive?" Puffy exclaims, full of pride and sorrow for the pale, thin boy in front of her.
After being escorted inside what looked small on the outside but was a very spacious office on the inside, Tommy decided to talk. "Uh. Yeah, um, I finally, I guess got the strength to face my problems, maybe." The boy spoke in stutters, but it was clear he finally accepted that he needed help.
"As for sleeping, I haven't slept well since Wilbur died. But it got worse after exile and then," He fades off, shuddering at the mere mention of exile.
"Tommy, what happened in exile?" Puffy watched as the boy fiddled with his fingers in his lap. He hadn't looked up once since he came in, except once to study the room briefly but thoroughly with his eyes.
"I- I can't. I d-don't k-know how." Tommy stuttered, tears threatening to spill from his eyes. What broke him however was when he glanced up once and saw the motherly look on Puffy's face.
As soon as Puffy saw the deep murky blue eyes that were once an icy colour, she lunged into action. She asked Tommy before touching him, then wrapped him in a mother's embrace, something Tommy had never felt.
The two sat in silence for close to an hour, the quiet sound of Tommy's sniffling filling the air occasionally.
Eventually Tommy lifted his head up to face Puffy, "I just wanna be okay. I want to be okay and I can't do it by myself." Puffy wanted to cry at how broken the boy sounded, but instead she let herself pull the boy into a motherly embrace and let him know that he will be okay.
