The wind blew softly on the trees and flowers as they bloomed giving the old plain green a much brighter color, you could hear the sounds as the waves crashed onto the yellow sand or the sharp grey stones. There stood a young blond whose life was about to start all over, he choose not to dwell on it but you could still see the young man was fighting the urge not to cry, his eyes set on the land before him.
It wasn't much but it was his new home and at least he wasn't alone, he still had his ghost friend. The boy walked on the soft green grass looking down at the small yellow flowers that grew there.
He wanted to shout to scream, but nothing came out he wanted to be strong so he held back those tears and screams, and he returned to the tent he and his friend built.
Looking back, he regretted every decision he made to be exiled from his country by his... once best friend, was he still his friend or was he now a rival, an enemy, he didn't wanna think about it so he pushed those thoughts from his mind and heard a familiar sound. It was Will his ghost friend he was calling out to him, the boy ran out of this tent to see Will picking up roses and other flowers.
"COME, HELP ME!" Will shouted happily picking up the small flowers "What's going on?" The blond asked his friend as he sat down on the soft grass.
"Look at all those flowers!" Will said pointing at the flowers covering the whole field "Think about all the pretty flower crowns we could make, baby bro" Will said, he and Will were like brothers, including Techno and Phil as their dad. Will started to pick flowers one by one soon the blond joined to help him.
"Tommy, remember when me, you, and Tubbo would make these?" Will said as Tommy felt like he had been shot, more painfully this time, just the mention of his so-called friend would put him on the verge of tears "Y-yeah" Tommy stuttered quietly "OH! We should bring the gang back together, you know me, you, Techno, and Phil and we could make so many pretty flower crowns like the ones we made when we were little" Will said happily and smiled at the thought.
While Tommy had a more irritated look, he hated Techno, or what Will liked to call him their older brother, but he was no brother to him he was more of a nuisance to him, but he kept his cool and continued to pick the flower from the ground.
"So what color would you like your flower crown?" Will asked trying to think of all new combinations he could make, Tommy thought for a moment "I would like it with yellow and blue flowers" Tommy said in a low voice "That's a great idea, Tommy!" Will said before taking more of the yellow and blue flowers, Tommy ignored his ghost friend but something did catch his attention, a well-made flower crown with pretty blue hydrangeas and beautiful yellow roses on his head.
"Wow, thanks, Will!" Tommy said in his usual happy voice "No problem" Will said proudly lifting Tommy's spirits a bit "How about you try" Will said smiling at the idea "You want me to try to make flower crowns?" Tommy said, "Yeah, so that when Techno comes next time we could give him some of our flower crowns, what do you say?" Will asked looking happier by the second.
"No, no way," Tommy said "What? Why?" Will asked "I don't want to make stupid flower crowns for that stupid bastard," Tommy said "Tommy-" Will started "No Willbur I won't do it," Tommy said "I won't force you, but can you at least try to make the crowns they don't have to be for Techno," Will said looking at the blond boy who was once filled with energy who made sure their country would be safe, he sacrificed everything for that country and this is how they repay them, Tommy clenched on the fabric of his shirt and gave a small nod.
"Alright, I'll try" Will was filled with joy and gave Tommy a few white lilies, Tommy gladly accepted them and begin his work, at first it didn't go very well, the flower crowns flowers would either fall or the crown would break. It didn't take long before the blond started getting angry and started swearing, Will laughed at the blond boy yelling at the ruined flower crown
"Here, here let me show you," Will said between laughs and showed the boy how to make a proper flower crown. Will gave a couple of flowers to his brother who quickly redid every step Will showed him
"WOHOOOOOO WILLBUR I DID IT!!" The blond boy yelled proud of himself "Great job Tommy you did it" Will said clapping his hand as the boy smirked victoriously, Willbur laughed and asked Tommy if he could make some more with him. Tommy nodded rapidly.
After a few hours of making a thousand flower crowns a warrior came and looked down at the other two "You guys making flower crowns?" He asked in his usual tired voice "Yes we are, care to join us?" Willbur said "WHAT NO WA-" Tommy was cut off by Willbur punching him in the arm "Sure, I remember we used to make them with Phil," Techno said and got a few flowers "Yeah, OH! Do you remember when we made lanterns" Techno laughed and nodded his head, Tommy couldn't remember since he was very young at the time he was probably a toddler maybe even a baby when his mother would cradle him in her arms.
"Oh, Tommy what did you and Phil used to make, I remember you used to make things out of paper," Tommy thought for a moment as he grabbed more flowers for his next crown "We used to, like swans, rabbits, anything you can think of, we also made dream catchers once," Tommy said smiling to himself "Pfft-Dork," Techno said finishing his second crown.
"What did you just call me?!" Tommy said in a threatening voice "Chill Tommy, take it as a compliment" Techno said ruffling Tommy's hair "HEY STOP IT!!" Tommy yelled angrily. Techno looked at Tommy's mischief and took out from the flower pile next to Willbur a couple of baby pink flowers and bright yellow ones; gladiolus and daffodil.
Tommy was on his eighth flower of the day and as he finished it he felt a lightweight on his head "Aww Tommy, Techno made you a flower crown!" Willbur said clapping his hands "Hey! I don't need your stupid flower crowns YOU HEAR ME!" Techno could only chuckle in response as he gladly accepted the flower Willbur handed to him for his next crown.
Wilbur and Techno laughed at the blond who was glaring daggers at the two adults. They continued making flower crowns for the past hour talking about the memories they all shared when they were little, Techno soon said he had to leave which made Will a little sad since they were having so much fun and finally having a moment to reconnect after a while. Techno was about to leave into the forest when a soft voice called to him.
"Techno!!" The duo called out to the crowned warrior "Here" Willbur said handing the warrior a flower crown with white chrysanthemums and blue anemones "Huh... Thanks, Willbur" Techno said and looked at the blue ghost "Oh Tommy made it!" Techno's gaze then fell onto the smaller boy" Have a safe trip," Tommy said crossing his arms "Sure will, loser," Techno said.
"WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME!!" Techno laughed as he ran away into the woods leaving no trace behind him "I'LL KILL YOU" Will held Tommy back before he could get into the forest and get lost.
"TOMMY, TOMMY! LET'S GO INSIDE THE SUN IS SETTING" Willbur yelled at Tommy who was struggling to release himself from Willburs strong grip, but soon stopped since Techno was long gone, dissapiring into the forest with his red coat flying with the wind.
They went inside their tent and slowly went to sleep Tommy placed his flower crown on his nightstand and went to wash off the dirt and finally have a good night's rest. Tonight was the only night Tommy could sleep peacefully without any thoughts of L'manberg or his friend.
