Day 11

Vince's POV:

I sit at the edge of my bed, being the first on awake. My mind races on how I could keep George away from Clay. I hated the thought of them even hanging out. I hear a faint groan from Clay, and I look over at him. He was starting to wake up. I moved to sit at the foot of his bed. I mutter to Clay some bad thing that George 'did' that came to my head. I was trying to get Clay to not trust George at all. Clay sits up, not knowing what to believe. We go into the living room. I see and Nick exits his room. He goes into the kitchen and comes out holding a filled water bottle. "How'd you 2 sleep?" Nick asks, arms crossed on the bed. "Alright" I say. Clay keeps quiet. Nick looks over at Clay, hands him the water bottle, and a pill.
"Can you take this? It'll help make you feel better" Nick says to him. Clay puts the pill in his mouth and drinks some of the water. He then hands it back to Nick. "Thanks bud" he says, taking the water bottle back to the kitchen. "What if George told him to give you the pill to hurt you?" I ask him. He looks at the ground. I hug him, and he leans against me. "For your information, that was not to hurt him. It was prescribed by a doctor to help him" Nick chimes in, sitting onto the couch. Clay pulls away from me and moves by Nick. "How do you know you can trust him?! Who know if he wants to hurt you?!" I ask, slightly yelling. Clay flinches at what I said. "Woah woah woah, what was that? I would never hurt him- what are you planning kid?" Sap asks in a stern tone. "That's none of your business Sherlock Holmes" I growl.
I then hear Darryl's room door open. "What's going on?" He asks. "I'm pretty sure that Vincent was starting to try to manipulate Clay" Nick says in response. Darryl looks over at me, I don't do anything in response. He puts me in time out. Out of the corner of my eye, I see Nick brining Clay into his and George's room. I punch the wall, looking down at the floor corner.

Clay's POV:

I was still in a little shock from what just happened. Vince was my friend! He would never do that to me... right.? I stay next to Nick, not trusting George that much. After a half an hour, I start to warm up to George a bit. What Vince said about him still rings in my head. I ignore it the best I could. I cuddle up against George. I desperately try to forget what Vince said, but failed. Nick had left the room to go do something. George's body heat kinda helped calm me down. I let my body relax into him. He looks down at me. I feel his hand rub my back. I flinch at first, but soon relax again. I felt bad for not trusting George. I feel chills run down my spine.
I rub up against George, desperate for heat against the chills. He quickly takes notice. He wraps me up with a blanket, and cuddles me. "I-I'm sorry.. I sh-shouldn't have listened to him.." I mutter. "Don't worry about it" he says. I hear Zak and Spifey playing in our room. I didn't want to leave George. I soon fall asleep in his arms.

Zak's POV:

Me and Spifey were just playing a little made up game of Minecraft. I soon notice that Vince was in the corner. I don't take much notice of it and continue the game. Nick was in the kitchen with Darryl, and Dave was watching over us. There was a knock at the front door. Dave opens it as me and Spifey race to see who it is. "Hey, sorry if this is too much but.. can you watch these 2 children for a while?" We hear Wilbur ask. Darryl happens to hear, and gives a thumbs up from the kitchen door. Signaling that we could, knowing that he was talking about Tubbo and Tommy. Wilbur soon leaves. Me and Spifey get them to play with us for a while.
We had to pause the game when Darryl and Nick finished the food. "Oh yeah, how's Clay doing?" Tubbo asks Darryl. Darryl says quiet for a few moments before saying, "he's getting better". Tubbo nods as if saying, 'Okay', but obviously was pretty worried for Clay. "I'll be right back" Nick says before exiting the kitchen. After eating, there was a sound of a phone ringing from Darryl's room.

Darryl's POV:

I go into my room to see Clay's phone ringing. I look to see who was calling. They had the title of, 'Drista 👁👄👁'. "Who's Drista?" I mutter to myself. I accidentally push answer and hear a girl yelling, "CLAY OH MY GOD WHERE ARE YOU?! ARE YOU OKAY? WHY WEREN'T YOU ANSWERING MY AND MOM'S CALLS?!". I step back a bit. "Hey, Clay's busy at the time. We have no clue when he'll be back" I say, phone up to my ear. "Who is this.?" She asks hesitantly. "Darryl, one of Clay's friends" I respond. I hear a crash in the living room. "What was that" Drista asks, concerned. "I gotta go" I say before hanging up. I set the phone back on my desk and go investigate. I see Tommy holding Vince off the ground, and Nick cleaning up broken glass. "What happened?" I ask. "Vince broke a light with a bat" Tommy says. "Because you guys are keeping Clay away from me!" Vince yells. "Is that why your doing this? He's literally sick! We're just trying to keep him from getting even more sick!" Nick says, almost yelling. "Plus, I doubt that he trusts you from that stunt you pulled earlier" he adds. Vince stays silent, processing what Nick just said. I help Nick clean up the rest of the glass.
"Tommy, can you take Vincent into the other room? I'll talk to him later" I say. Tommy nods and does as he told. "I'm pretty sure he just wants to look out for his friend" I suggest. "Probably.. but I think he's going a little too far. I get he wants to protect him, but what he did was unacceptable.." Nick says quietly. "He's just a kid, I doubt he knows what was wrong with what he did earlier" I say. "I guess..." He hesitantly says. We both stay silent as we finish cleaning. I have a little talk with Vince about his behavior, and after he goes back to play with Zak and Spifey. I realize I haven't really seen Clay all day.
I knock on George and Nick's room door. I wait until George says "come in" before entering. "Hey, you and Clay doing alright?" I ask standing in the doorway. "He's been sleeping for most of the day." George says "I'm worried about him". "It's all part of the recovery process" I reassured him. "Also, what was happening? I heard a crash then Nick yelling" He asks. "Vince broke a light" I explain. The rest of the day was pretty uneventful. Clay was up before Tubbo and Tommy left. We got him to eat a bit. After the kids went to bed, we adults just chilled on the couch. "Only 3 days left of them being kids" I say.
"Wow, lots of time has past" Dave adds. "Yep, it was pretty eventful" George chuckles. Nick nods. "You could say that again" Dave says sarcastically. "We gotta make the last 3 days count" Nick says.

Yeah... last 3 days...
