goop house re-worked

arguments

"I'M HOME!" Tommy yelled as the door swung and hit the wall, startling me and Wilbur, "ew. Why would you have WAFFLES for breakfast!?"

He walked over and poked a hole in Wilbur's waffle and laughed as he sprinted upstairs, Wilbur chased after him. I finished off my toast before walking upstairs after them.
I walked upstairs to see our bedroom door shut and Wilbur trying to pry the door open.

"Wilbur stop! You're just gonna break the door!" I pushed him away from the door, "Tommy? Can you open the door? I have a lot of private things in there."

"IS THIS A PHOTO OF YOU TWO- oh it's you and Rad." He threw a photo down and I heard it shatter.

"TOMMY. OPEN THE DOOR!" I looked back at Wilbur who was equally as mad, "Tommy I mean it! Open this door! RAD!"

"No no wait don't get Rad..." Tommy pleaded.

"Then open the door! You're being a dick!"

He went silent, he wasn't breaking anything or rummaging through anything anymore. His movement stopped, all I could hear from the other side of the door is confusion.

"Is-... Is this a photo of us?" I couldn't see his face, but I could hear a smile.

"I don't know?! Open the door!" I begged, and miraculously, the door opened.

Tommy was clutching a framed photo I had of the house together. Geo, Xen, Rad, Wilbur, Tommy and me. It was an old photo, an old photo back when Rei was still an issue.

"Tommy, it's just a photo, I-" Wilbur spoke.

"It's not just a photo Wilbur!" Tommy shouted, "it's a memory!"

Rad suddenly tapped on my shoulder, making me jump,

"What do you want mate? I heard you calling out to me," Rad eyes turned to Tommy, eyes widening at the photo, "oh wow!"

I rolled my eyes with a smile, idiot.

"XEN?!" Tommy called out.

"WHAT FUCK YA?!" Was the response.

"COME DOWN HERE."

"IM IN THE MIDDLE OF STREAMING CUNT."

"DON'T CARE."

After a moment Xen was standing with us,

"I left my stream going so hurry up," a high pitched gasp/squeal left their mouth at the realization, "oh my god we were babies here!"

I noticed Xen's eyes scanning the photo as her eyes picked at me holding her, a sight that hurt me. She looked back up at me with loving eyes.

"Don't- don't look at me like that." I frowned and took the photo from Tommy. I put it back on the shelf next to my desk and ushered everyone but Wilbur and Rad out.

They both looked at me with eyes that said 'something is wrong.' And they were right. Xen still had feelings for me and I didn't know how to politely turn them down after what they had done to me.

"You're messaging her behind my back! I told you so many times to stop talking to her! She's ruined mine and Rad's lives! She's done terrible things to you!" Younger Marina shouted at Younger Xen, standing outside their house.

"At least she shows her love and appreciation for me!" Younger Xen yelled back.

"...Get the fuck out of my house."

"But it's-"

"Get the fuck out of my house Raven."

Tears welled in my eyes as I glanced around my bedroom to see all our old memories together. I hated it. I wanted to tear it all down and start over.
Then again, the memories that Wilbur and I had were in this room, the memories that Rad and I had were in this room. Countless nights staying up singing 'Hamilton', they would be gone, watching movies and bonding over minor things, they'd all be gone too. I took a deep breath and stood up, wiping the tears from my eyes.
I began to remove every photo I had of me and Xen and I planned to edit the original photo of us outside our house so I wasn't holding her. I heard my door opened and I turned around to see Rad leaving and shutting the door.

"This'll pass Starlight." Wilbur spoke, still sat on the bed.

"I know it will. But right now I just want old memories of her out of my life. Out of my head." I sighed, not turning to face him.

"Come and sit down, please. You shouldn't worry about all of this right now."

"I can't Will, I want to take down all of these things."

He paused, he didn't want to say anything that would hurt me, he just got up and hugged me. I ignored it, selfishly, but I couldn't bear the thought of losing memories of him too.
I kept tearing at things on the wall, stickers, photos, drawings, even gifts she had gotten me, anything to remove those memories of her. Anything.

"What the FUCK Tommy!?" Rad shouted through the walls.

Both me and Wilbur groaned again, he took his arms away from me and we walked out of our room together. I still had tape plastered on my arms.

"Rad just... Just calm down!" Tommy pleaded, Rad's anger increasing.

"Calm down?! CALM DOWN?! You expect me to CALM DOWN?" Rad must have thrown something at the wall, because from their room, you could hear glass shatter.

It was that point where Wilbur and I broke in and removed Tommy from the situation. He wasn't hurt, just scared. Terrified.

"What do I do!?" Wilbur whispered to me frantically.

"Stay with him, take him to our room and lock the door. I'm gonna check on Rad." I looked back at Wilbur, "please come and get me if something happens."

I walked into Rad's room and sat down on the ground with them, they hit, a lot, but anything to make them feel better, right?

"Is he better than me?" Rad spoke, softly.

"Sorry?" I sat upright, startled.

"Is he?"

"What are you referring to?"

"What we could have been. What we could have done together. But you fell in love with him and you ruined EVERYTHING!"

"Rad, calm down. You're having an episode. I'm here to help you okay?"

"No you're NOT! You're here to rub it in my face that you're in a happy fucking relationship and it isn't with me!"

"Relationship? I'm not in a relationship Rad."

"You are! I see you open his messages and stare! 'Benji.' You're supposed to be with me!"

They hit me again. It hurt that time. A lot. I yelped and watched Xen run in, not Wilbur. I knew Rad was having an episode, and I wanted to be there to help, but they kept hurting me over and over again and it was shattering my image of them.
Rad got up and walked out of the room, mumbling and muttering something inaudible as Xen ran after them. I hear her reassure Rad and tell her to sit down and relax.
My phone vibrated in my pocket, rubbing against the bruise forming on my thigh
