My Little DreamSMP

Three

Twelve years ago (Meaning Tommy is 4, Wilbur is 8 and Techno is 9)

Phil was awoken by small yells from his (at that time) two sons, making him hurriedly ran to their room, only to see them not there. "Boys! Where are you two!" He yelled, listening intently for their response. "Garden! The crops are gone!" He heard Wilbur yell back, making him rush to the garden to see it is, in fact, empty. "Oh my." He muttered, before Techno and Wilbur appeared, covered in dirt. "What happened to you two?" Wilbur and Techno grinned sheepishly.

"We decided to take out the rest of the crops in case more get stolen. Oh yeah, they were stolen, not taken by animals." Techno said, as Phil dusted both of them off. "How do you know?" Phil asked, before Techno pointed to a certain track. It looked like small shoe prints, and it disappeared around the bushes near his gate.

"Hm. Let's check on that later. Now, how about some breakfast." Techno and Wilbur cheered softly, before they all went back inside. As they had breakfast, the bushes rustled a little, before a small lock of blonde hair peeked out, and a small face and bright blue eyes looked around, scanning his surroundings. "Tommy did it!" The small boy, Tommy, cheered, as he took out a few carrots and potatoes.

"But... it doesn't feel right..." Tommy muttered. If you didn't know, this was his first time stealing food. The reason he's doing such a thing is because he knows that this home, which was a little ways from his orphanage, has a lot of food.

Even so, he still feels bad taking it from the residence, especially after seeing how the two boys were quite saddened by the act. Tommy then sighed, and with a little struggle, he picked up all the stolen food and decided to knock on the door. "Coming!" He heard from the inside, before the door opened, revealing the tall, green and white hatted man Tommy saw with the two boys from before.

"U-um... Hello, sir... Um... Here you go... I'm sorry..." Tommy said, handing the stolen veggies to Phil before he took off, Phil blinking in shock. "Wait- hey!" Phil, shaken from his stupor, said, but Tommy was a little too fast. "What's wrong, Dadza?" Wilbur asked, peeking out the door. "Hey, these are all of the crops that were stolen!" Wilbur said, as he picked up the carrots and potatoes. "Hey Wilbur." The boy lifted his head to look at his father. "Is there a blonde boy in the orphanage?" Wilbur hummed.

"Yeah, about 5 kids. Why?" Wilbur asked. Phil hummed. "I think I'm going to visit the orphanage later. Do you wanna come with?" Wilbur shook his head. "I might help Techno with his potatoes and carrots, since we collected the crops a little early." Phil nodded, before they went back inside.

Later that day...

Phil waved goodbye to his sons and headed off toward the Village, specifically toward the Orphanage. As he entered, the lady at the desk greeted him with a small smile. "Phil! How are you? And the two boys, Techno and Wilbur?" Phil smiled gently. "They're doing great! I'm just here to check on someone. Um..." Phil then realised he doesn't even know the small boy's name. Just as he was about to ask the lady something, Phil felt a small pull on his coat. He looked down and the same boy with bright blue eyes was staring at him.

"A-Are you here to yell at m-me?" He asked, as he clutched a bat plushie. Phil crouched down next to him, a smile on his face as he held Tommy's hand. "No, no little one. I'm here to check on you." Tommy tilted his head slightly, making Phil coo softly. "Why?" Phil picked him up, turning to the lady. "Can I have his information, Lily? I'm interested in this little one." Lily blinked. "But you don't-why? I'm pretty sure you've never met Tommy before." Phil smiled. "It's just a small hunch. So, Tommy, how do you feel about coming home with me?" Tommy smiled, nodding.

Back to the present...

Phil smiled as he bounced a sleeping Tommy in his arms as Niki read a story for the rest of the kids, while Tubbo made some flower crowns for them. Schlatt and Eret were in the kitchen cooking up lunch as Techno was busy hunting for food. Wilbur was with him, helping Techno, in his own way.

This is nice.... In a way. Phil thought, as he watched the 'kids' in small adoration.

A bit smaller, I just want this to be out. :)

Next chapter would either be longer or shorter than this.
