Chapter 11 - Oh no.

Start from the beginning
                                    

Tommy threw on the fastest outfit he could, which was shorts, red and white baseball tee, and ankle socks that hide behind his converse's. He grabbed one of the over-sized hoodies and threw it on, hiding his cuts from view.

There were a few scars on his legs, but you couldn't tell unless you were analyzing them. Or if you notice tiny things. 

The hoodie almost covered the shorts, but you could still see them. Tommy went into the bathroom across the hall, touched his hair up a bit, and brushed his teeth. he finished quickly, and went downstairs.

Technoblade was on the couch.

"Hey."

"Hey.."

"Tubbo comin' over?"

"Y-yeah.. Is that alright..?"

Techno hummed as a yeah, and stretched his arms. He blew a few strands of his bangs out of his eyes, and looked at Tommy.

Then Tommy remembered his thighs were visible. And from what he knows, Techno is very  observant. Take the 'meet' for example, when Technoblade called Tommy out for flinching. Or literally the other night when He confronted that Tommy thinks they'll hurt him.

'yet again, they might.'

Techno looked at the blonde's thighs, then made eye contact. Techno's eyes flashed with pity, and sadness, before looking away. He looked to be debating something, while Tommy bit the inside of his cheek.

The silence was loud, but it was broken by a knock at the door.

"Sorry, sir..."

Techno perked up, confused at the 'sir,' and watched Tommy open the door. Tubbo stood, and embraced Tommy in a hug. Techno took noticed that Tommy flinched, but hugged back.

"You alright Tommy? You flinched.."

"Y-yeah, I'm alright, just don't worry about it... That was sudden.."

"The hug? Yeah, sorry, I just uh, thought somethin when leaving my house."

Tommy nodded to show he understood, and they went upstairs to the room Tommy was staying in. They talked, and just messed around.

~~~~Time skip, like, 4 pm, Tubbo showed up at like, 10 am~~~~

Tommy was at the door, waving Tubbo goodbye as he walked to the street. He closed the door, sighing, and blinked a few times to keep tears away. He took deep breaths, processing what he was told.

Tubbo mentioned that next week, he was going out of town for a week. Tommy already trusts this kid with his life, and he wont be able to see him for a week?! God damn it. This is why he shouldn't get attached.

A hand was placed on his shoulder.

"Are you alri-"

Tommy whipped around, shaking. Techno was there hand still out, looking semi-surprised. Techno noticed Tommy's chest rising and falling rapidly.

"Breath, kid."

Tommy watched as Technoblade moved his hand closer again.

"Please don't-- please-" Tommy stampered out.

Technoblade, despite everyone's belief, actually cares about Tommy. The scars that he saw, the flinching, the fear.. Techno knows what that's like. It killed him, seeing someone else go though it.

He empathizes with him.

Techno placed his hand on Tommy's shoulder again. Tommy flinched and pushed himself back, raising his arms up in defense.
