sages's pov:

wilbur texts tommy that we're already off the plane and we get out bags from baggage.

"WILBAAA!!" tommy yells and tackles wilbur.

"you must be molly." i greet the younger girl.

"yeah. hi!" she smiles and we hug.

"and your the famous sage? right?"

"the one and only." i shrug.

"who's this?" she kneels down and locked eyes with elise.

"m-my names elise."

"aw, how old are you?"

"5, i'm going to be 6 soon."

"nice. have you met tommy before-"

"WHOS CHILD IS THIS??"

"this is my niece."

"YOU MEAN MY BIGGEST FAN!"

"you're tommyinnit." she points.

"no my names fucking bob. YES OF COURSE IM THE TOMMYINNIT." tommy yells.

"your very loud just like in the videos."

" i get that a lot. especially from these pricks." tommy motions to us.

"tommy, she's five, stop cussing so much."

we walk to tommy's car and we drive back home.

"tio, i'm tired." elise tells me, rubbing her eyes.

"i know, we're almost home." i reply.

as soon as we get home i get her bag.
"hey, i'll get your bag," wilbur offers. "you can get elise to bed."

"thanks wil." i take elise's hand and walk her up to our apartment.

"this is where you live?" she asks.

"yep." i unlock the door.
we walk in and i put her bag in my room and she lays down on the bed.
"you can sleep here."

"ok." she snuggles into the bed and falls asleep.

i walk out and help wilbur with the bags.

"what we're you in america for?" tommy asks as he plops onto our couch.

"my older sisters wedding."

"aw she's not on the market anymore?" tommy whines.
molly side-eyes him but sighs with a laugh.
"and why is your niece staying with you? i mean it's not a problem but why?"

"she didn't want to stay with her grandparents so we took her. her mom is going to pick her up tomorrow morning so i'll still make it up tubbos sp marathon."

"also wil, what's that on your nails?" tommy asks.

"oh it's um, nail polish." wilbur replies, shyly.

"cool! did sage do them for you? cause they look super cool." tommy awes over the nails. "can you do mine next?" tommy looks up at me.

"uh sure."

"really?!"

"want me to grab my polish?"
he nods excitedly and i get up and grab my nail polish bag.
"what color?"

"black and white."

"alternating?"

"uh sure why not?"

i get to painting and tommy is smiling very wide.

after a few minutes i finish. "alright, just wait a few minutes so the top coat with dry."

"ok."

tommy starts talking to wilbur and i lay my head on wilbur shoulder and listen to their conversation.

i feel the effects of not sleeping very long and the jet lag hit me like a bus.
i close my eyes and i feel myself being drifted of to sleep.

wilbur's pov:

"we should probably go, mollys going to meet my parents today."  tommy stands up.

he bends down and hugs me since i can't get up cause sage is sleeping on my shoulder.

i hug molly aswell and they leave.

i lay sage on top of my chest and they lean their head in the crook of my neck. their warm breath tickling my neck.
i check the time, 7:30.
i caress their hair and i feel myself fall asleep aswell.

"bye tio sage, bye uncle wilbur." elise hugs us and goes with mabel.

"thanks for taking care of her for me."  mabel thanks us.

"it was no problem." sage smiles and hugs their sister.

"we didn't mind, it was fun having her over." i add.

we say our goodbyes and they leave toward the boarding area.

"when did toby invite us?"

"5:30." they reply

"we have two hours then."

we drive home and chill on the couch.

sages pov:

"have you eaten today?" wilbur asks.

"um no, not yet."

"when was the last time you've eaten?"

"the time we went to breakfast before we left america."

"sage that was a day ago."

"i know." i sigh.

"hey it's ok, how about we eat something before we go to tubbos?"

"ok." i nod.

after like an hour we leave to tubbos but before we do, we stop at a burger place.

wilbur parks at the beach where we can just see the ocean.

"you know, the sea is a good place to think about the future." (A/N: los campesinos reference.)

"i really don't want to eat." i mumble to myself.

i take a bite and sigh.

i eat half of my burger and fries.

"hey you did so well!" wilbur praises me.

"i don't feel like i did."

"well, i think you did great." wilbur takes my hand in his.

"wilbur," i sigh. "will i ever get better?"

"you're making such good progress. i think you'll get better in no time." he smiles. "i'll be with you, till the end."

"really? cause some people just say that to be nice."

"well i'm not some people. i mean it. i promise you."

i feel a small tear roll down my cheek.

"wait did i say something wrong? i'm sorry if i did. i'm so sorr-"

i cut him off by hugging him.

"i love you so much wil." i cry.

"hey, i love you too. i'll never leave you." wilbur rubs my back.

i want to die.
so much.
i hate life.
but you,
you make it worth living.
