tommy woke up, laying on the cold hard ground catching his breath. he opened his eyes and looked up at the plain white ceiling before scanning the room he was in. he realized just where he was. in his room at his fathers house.

tommy's mom had passed away long ago, and his father had abused him and blamed him for it, though it wasn't his fault. it was due to his father actually, he crashed the car one night, accidentally killing tommy's mother.

tommy tried to sit up, but pain shot through his body. suddenly, there was black ink dripping down the walls, covering it completely. the ink started spewing insulting and harmful words at the boy. he tried to sit up but something was holding him down, and he heard foot steps coming from the other side of the closed oak door.

he tried to scream, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn't make a sound. tears spilled from his eyes and he tried to get away, but he knew what was coming. the door burst open and his father was there, holding a belt in one hand.

the ink from the walls began flooding the floor, it didn't seem to stop. tommy's father had begun to hit him and scream agonizing and guiltily words at him, making him try to keep screaming. his father left the room, slamming the door and locking it behind him.

the black ink was almost covering tommy's face, and he couldn't get up. he was restrained to the ground, and he couldn't do a thing. soon the ink covered his face, leaving him to suffocate and drown.

tommy woke up for real this time, face down in his pillow- which made sense of why he felt as if he was suffocating. he sat straight up and started hyperventilating, tears streaming down his face, remembering how he was taken by child services when he was ten, but soon got adopted by a loving family.

phil was his dad, and he hadn't called him by that yet because he didn't feel ready. wilbur, and techno were his older brothers, and they all really cared for tommy, helping him with school work, being there for him through ptsd attacks, and panic attacks. they'd been the best thing that had ever happened to him.

he hated when anyone would see him cry, but his family became his exception once he realized how much they actually loved him.

he pulled his knees from his chest and put his feet on the floor. despite being 16, he would go and sleep in one of his brothers rooms when nightmares happened, but this was far from just a nightmare. he decided to walk 3 doors down to philza's room.

his small frame was shaking uncontrollably as he reached for the door handle. he opened the door and looked inside, a small nightlight illuminated the room, tommy could see that phil was sleeping peacefully.

"philza..?" he said quietly, quickly realizing that wouldn't wake him up. he went over to his bed, getting under the covers next to phil.

tommy gently shook him. phil woke up and rolled over, facing tommy. "hey tommy, did you have another nightmare?" he asked, reaching a gentle hand out and wiping the tears on tommy's face.

"yeah..." tommy said quietly, still very shaken up. phil hummed a response, opening his arms to hug tommy, to which he immediately opted. phil held his boy close as tommy cuddled in his arms as best he could, resting his head on his chest. "it- it was so bad... i was back there- and he hurt me again-" tommy vented, explaining the dream to phil, and ended up sobbing.

phil rubbed tommy's back, hushing hun softly. "you're okay tommy, you will never see him again, and nobody will ever hurt you again... you're safe here, you're safe in my arms." he continued to calm the broken boy, whispering calming words gingerly.

they had spoken a few more words before tommy started to drift off again, unafraid of having another nightmare. "i love you dad..." he whispered before dozing off. "i love you too, tommy... my son." phil said, super joyful inside that tommy called him dad. he leaned his head down and placed a kiss atop tommy's head, before eventually falling back asleep too.
