Dad Schlatt AU

20

i stayed on the roof for a while longer. crying.
"are you okay?" i hear wilbur ask
"why wouldn't i be?" i ask smiling at him
i just saw tommy storm off, he seems angry. wilbur says. he grunts as he sits next to me. he notices i was crying and reached his arms out. offering a hug?
i immediately jumped into his arms.
i know i know. wilbur is a bad person. but not to me. it's like he has a soft spot for me, but at the same time hates me. i didn't cry anymore, i just stopped talking.
he lets go of me, and pats my head.
"am i really a bad person?" i ask
"no. you're not even close to being a bad person." wilbur says taking a puff of his cigarette
"you're just saying that." i say
"i'm serious. you take no time for yourself because of how much you care for others." he says
...
"thanks" i say
"alright kiddo, i'm gonna head home. i'll see you later" he says patting my head
"please don't call me that. it reminds me of schlatt" i say
"right. sorry" he says walking away
i'll i want right now is a hug from my dad.
"y/n!!??" i hear someone shout
i look of the edge of the room and see my dad walking around shouting my name.
i climb down and walk over to him.
"you okay hon?" he asks
"i'm all good" i say
"you should get home, you look tired" he says
"it's just tears" i say
"let's get you home" he says
———
i get home and see wilbur drinking. i grab the bottle out of his hand and ask him to stop.
"why??" he asks
"it just bothers me" i say
"that's fine, but i'm thirsty" he says
"just drink water" i say
he groans and gets up. he comes back over and falls alseep.
