'I could get used to this'

Tommy

"G'morning Phil," I say tiredly as I drag myself to the living room.

I don't feel well, my head is pounding and I can't touch or look at myself without feeling shitty, I didn't even want to get out of bed today but here I am.

He looks up at me and smiles

"Good morning Tea," he says and continues reading his book

It takes everything in me not to walk back to my room

'He doesn't know he can't help it' I tell myself

Techno is sitting across from Phil on the floor and Wilbur is sitting on the couch above him braiding his hair.

He looks at me and mouths 'it's okay'

I nod and sit on the L couch where Phil is sitting

I run a hand through my hair and blink tiredly

'What the hell am I doing here'

'Just tell him so it can stop'

'Tell him and the pain will go away'

I'm pulled out of my thoughts when Phil puts a hand on my shoulder

I pull my hand away from my face and look at him

"You alright mate?" He asks

I nod

He looks at me with sceptical eyes

'I want to go back to bed'

He places his hand on my forehead, I tense at first but relax almost immediately.

"Teagan you're burning up," he says pulling his hand away.

I groan as I feel like my head is being bashed in with a rock

"Does your head hurt?" He asks closing his book

I nod as I'd rather not speak at the moment

"You probably have a cold, I'll get you some medicine and you can go lay down if you want," he tells me

I nod and he leaves to retrieve the medicine

I look at Wilbur and techno who both are looking at me now.

Wilbur looks away as he notices I see him

"Okay techno, I'm done," he says looking down at him.

He felt the braid in his hand before voicing a 'thank you'

"Wait what time is it?" He asks

"Um around 12, almost 1 now," Wilbur says

Then it hits him
