Tommy's POV

Tommy mindless scrolled through twitter at fanarts and posts of him. His slightly big social media from the blowup of the videos turned into a bigger social media with 2.5 million followers. Not to mention it was growing rapidly.

Knock knock knock.

"Come in Techno." I sigh.

"How did you know it was me?"

"You are the only one that actually knocks."

Techno frown, "I just want to congratulate you on winning again."

"Thanks Tech."

"You know Tommy, you aren't a bad brother like I thought you were." I look up at Techno and my eyes grow huge.

"R-really?"

"Yea, you are really cool, and I now realize the type of shit you get put through in this family. I have finally realized how better off Wilbur and I are compared to you. I feel like shit for treating you the way I did."

I couldn't help but smile at the apology Techno gave me. It feels nice that somebody actually cares about me in this family.

"I mean... even if you did kill mom. You are a great replacement of her." I froze.

"I didn't kill mom, nor did I fucking replace her." I said quietly.

Techno laughed, "Yeah you did. You came into the world and mom died shortly after."

"I DIDN'T KILL MOM." Tears pricked my eyes as I say it a little louder.

"But-"

"Get the fuck out Techno." Techno knew he messed up and just left. 

My breath staggered as I locked my door. That is fucking it.

I am running away tonight.

I find my bag I had packed for a while and look at the contents. I put a few more things in like a bottle of water and some extra money.

I climb out of my window and run. I wasn't sure where to, but anything could be better than the Minecraft household. I hopped over the fence, twisting my ankle in the process.

"Fuck!" I say through my teeth.

I ignored the pain and limped into town. I head down to a local gas station to get something small to eat. I open the door and the bell dinged to show a customer has arrived.

I go through the aisles and decide on a bag of chips and a prime drink. I go up to the tired cashier and put the items in front of him.

"Is that all?" He asks as he tiredly scanned the items.

"No thank you."

"That will be 6.32." I give him the money and he nods as he gives me back my change.

"Thank you." I say as I put my hoodie up and limp away.

I felt tired. I spot a fire escape and grin. I climb up thatso I can sit on the roof and munch on my chips and chug the prime. I look at the stars. They calmed my nerves until I say flashing lights.

Police cars.

"Young man get off the roof now! We need to ask some questions!"

I hesitate but comply.

"Yes officer?"

"I was wondering if you saw a 16-year-old kid. Name is Tommy."

I shake my head no, "Sorry officer. Haven't seen him."

"Well thank you anyways young man."

I sigh as the officer drove away. They are fucking idiots.

I start walking away before I step on something. I lift up my shoe to reveal a now shattered cherry lollipop. I couldn't help but smile. 

Now I knew what to do.
