my brother Tom

"TOM!" as soon as I see my little brother, I let go of mum and run towards him.

"OH MY GOD, Y/N! I'M SO FUCKING HAPPY TO SEE YOU! I REALLY missed you, you know?" as we hug, he screams and half-cries into my hair. He's grown a lot taller from when I last saw him.

"I'm so glad to be home, Tom... you have no idea how much I missed the three of you..." I'm sobbing at this point, but I don't really care. I'm just happy to be with my brother, mother and goofy dog.

"Ok, be honest, prick. Did you really miss me, or did you miss streaming with me and having me here to help with tech? I saw a clip of you needing Phil's help. I also saw you face-timing Toby because you locked yourself out of you're office. Such a fucking dumbass." I say as I sniffle in tears. I'm extremely tired and all of the tiredness is raining down my cheeks.

"I know, I know... you missed me too, asshole." he says as we continue hugging. Come to think of it, we have always been very close. Of course we fight, but we're siblings. We've always got each other's backs.

"I did, Tom. I really did... You didn't answer my question though." I say looking up at him and letting go of the hug.

"I missed every perk that came with having you here. Mostly just your fucking existence." Tom said flicking my forehead. "That actually fucking hurt." I say as I realise mum had brought in my luggage. "Thanks, mum."

I hate unpacking so much. It is the most grim experience, especially after a good trip. It's like admitting that your fantastic trip was over. Admittedly though, I wasn't thinking about going back to Germany at all. I loved it, don't get me wrong, but the UK has something no one could ever pay me to leave. My brother, mum and dog. Tom comes in first place.

As I get up from my bed to place some clothes in the closet, I hear a knock on my door. "Come in!" I yell a bit as I put the clothes in the shelf and turn around. "Yo, Prick." I say as I grab some more clothes from my suitcase and smile at him.

"Hey, how're you feeling? Y'know, back in the UK and all?" he asks as he sits down on my beanbag chair. It makes loud crunching noises for a bit, but as he stops moving, the room fills with silence. Not uncomfortable silence, nice silence. The kind that makes you want to smile and fall asleep.

"I'm glad to be back, actually. Living with Nick was great, but I missed this place. I actually did miss you a lot as well, and streaming. God, I cannot wait for tomorrow!" He furrows his eyebrows and makes a face. "Sorry, Nick?" he asks and I laugh at the absurdity of the face he has made.

"Niki Nihachu, the popular German gamer who has been shipped with too many content creators? The one you're supposedly "scared" of." I say as I stare at him. "It was a funny bit, though. I thought you meant Sap, man. He's been spending too much time on the SMP and I've had to talk with him more than once or twice. Fuckinnn'- I don't know." he says warily.

"Have you slept at all in like the past week?" I ask him putting down the clothes I had been organising. "You look tired and you sound tired too."

"Not really..." he says and rubs his eyes with his hands. You could sense how much he just wanted to sleep, but something was obviously holding him back. I didn't wanna push it, but he's my little baby brother. I'd do anything for him, so I asked.

"What's stopping you?" I say as I sit on my bed putting all of my focus on the little gremlin in front of me. He looks at me, hesitantly starting to talk.

"I... I kind of just tire myself out. Like for instance, I... I continue to force jokes out of myself because of "haha, funny" but like... I don't know if I even feel like myself on stream... I know that sentence didn't make any sense, but like... I don't know how else to really put it, to be honest."

I stare at him, tearing up.

"When I started teaching you all about Twitch and Youtube and stuff, my biggest fear was that you'd end up being tired. Like, just unprovoked really. Just exhausted from living at this point, really? I'm sorry, Tom. How about you just get some rest tonight.  I know you like my room, feel free to sleep in my bed. I'll stream from your PC, that alright?" I trailed off.

"Thank you, really. I'd appreciate your room. I actually spent loads of time here after Prince passed. The atmosphere is too pleasant not to love it here. Also, yeah you can stream from mine. Just make sure to log off my account and stuff." he says as he plops into the bed. "Love ya'!" I get no response as his breath is calm. Already asleep, huh?

I exit my room and go downstairs to tell mum to be a bit quiet. "Mum, Tom is asleep in my room. I'll be streaming in his, if you need me!" She gives me a nod and continues watching TV. I walk back up to Tom's room. As I walk in, I feel the comforting air hit my face. Pleasant.

His window was wide open, I'm assuming he wanted it to be cold so he could stay awake. Poor kid. I internally cry a bit, as my thoughts spiral into self-blaming. I ignore it, as per usual, and go sit down at his desk. His PC is still on. His DMs with some of the members still open.
