Tommy stared at the phone in confusion as he laid in bed.
What the hell did he mean by “he’d get a car”? Tommy thought to himself before sighing and sitting his phone down. He figured that was just tubbo being tubbo and just decided to put the comment in the back of his mind.
He sat there for a moment before laying down and closing his eyes. He was tired and wasn't going to stay up and wait to see what tubbo had to say. Soon, he slowly felt his eyes close and he let himself slip into a dreamful state….
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
Tommy startled up and looked around with very sleepy and foggy eyes as he scratched at his head in confusion
What the hell woke him up?
He sat up for a bit before he heard the knocking again. He slowly turned his attention to the window and stumbled over to it in a sleep-drunk haze.
“Oi? What's all this then?” He said in a very slurred and groggy tone as he opened the window. He looked around for a bit before he met a mopful of brown hair with yellow highlights in them. Tommy coughed before stumbling away from the window, landing directly on his backside in pure confusion as he stared at the figure looking at him through the window.
“Tommy! Cmon, we're leaving!” Tubbo said with a wide grin as he hopped onto the window sill and sat on it.
“Going? Wha?” Tommy was still hella groggy and confused so he was still trying to process everything that was going on in that second.
“You drunk or something?” Tubbo said as he squinted his eyes at Tommy, “why are you acting so loopy?”
“I was asleep, you dickhead” Tommy mumbled with a stifled yawn as he rubbed his eyes. Tubbo just rolled his eyes and hopped into Tommy’s room, yanking at Tommy's arm to get him off the floor.
“Tommy, let's go! We're gonna go for a drive!”
“A drive? Tubbo its-” Tommy looked over at his clock before looking back at Tubbo with shock, “4 in the morning! What the fuck are you trying to go for a drive for?!”
“Best hour because nobody is up yet”
“Bossman, i'm not going with you for a drive at 4 in the fucking morning!”
“Ranboos going.” Tubbo pointed out, causing Tommy to just scrunch his nose in distaste. “That's even worse! I'm not going with ranboob or you to god knows where at 4am! My brothers AND Philza would kill me!”
Tubbo looked at Tommy with big puppy dogs eyes as he clasped his hands together in a pleading motion, “Pleaaaaase? Pretty please with a cherry on top, Tommy?”
“Fuck no! There's nothing you can do to convince me to go with you!” Tommy said as he crossed his arms and turned his back to Tubbo.
Tommy was about to tell Tubbo to leave before one of his brothers and/or his dad came in before he heard the sentence that instantly changed his mind”
“I'll buy you a coke and your favorite chocolate cake at the local Smarty’s down the street..”
…..fuck..
Curse his sweet tooth.
Tommy slowly turned back and sighed as he rubbed his temples, “I hate you..”
Tubbo grinned practically like a madman before grabbing Tommy's hoodie and throwing it at him with excitement. “Cmon then! Let's go!”
It wasn't long before Tommy and Tubbo were walking to where Ranboo and the car were.
“I got him! Let's go!” Tubbo said with a grin as he skipped over to Ranboo. Tommy yawned sleepily again as he looked over at Ranboo.
“So how'd he get you to come out?”
“He knew my anxiety would get the best of me if I just let him drive to who knows where by himself. The least I can do is make sure he doesn’t kill himself driving. You?”
“Coaxed out with my favorite snack..”
“Smarty’s slice of chocolate cake with a coke?”
Tommy nodded and finally looked at the green Chevrolet before gasping. “Holy shit, where the hell did you even get this?”
Tubbo just grinned and shook his head as he opened the car door, “Dont worry about it..”
Tubbo got in and sat on the driver's side while Ranboo sat in the passenger seat. Tommy looked around before he climbed in and sat in the backseat.
Well. Here goes nothing, right?
He's going on a 4am joyride with his two friends.
This'll be interesting…
Tommy yawned again and closed his eyes as he leaned back. Soon, the car was silent again. Just three friends on a late night adventure.
Or, early morning adventure in Tommy's case.
“So exactly, why are we doing this Bo?” Ranboo asked as he stared at the brunette with curiosity.
“Because, my dear friend Ranboo” Tubbo started before making a sharp left turn, “We are young, we are teens and we need to cause a little bit of trouble now and then!”
Tommy snorted, a bit too sleepily for his liking, and laughed. “Are you just quoting some stupid teenage rebellion song?”
“Hey! We will appreciate Supergrass in all their glory!”
“Didn't that band break up or something?” Ranboo said with a snort as Tubbo made another sharp turn and weaved around in traffic
“It did, but that's not the point! We're young! And we need to do crazy things now and then! Including getting in a hotwired car and joyriding at 4am!”
“Wait tubbo, did you just say you hotwired this ca-”
Tubbo made a noise of distaste like he didn't want to talk about it as he sped up a little, making Ranboo and Tommy cling onto their seats with their eyes widened in slight fear.
“Oh prime, please don't get us killed in a car accident. I don't want to die before I finish my school year, or finish my play. Or both, really-" Ranboo said in a overwrought tone
"I don't think we'll die Ranboo." Tommy said with a snort as he shook his head.
"You don't know that Tommy."
"You don't either!" Tubbo pointed out as he made another sharp turn.
" Oh prime, what if we run something over?!" Ranboo said, their breath hitching as they looked around in a slight panic.
"Ranboo, you're having an anxiety attack. Deep breaths.." Tommy slowly said.
"This is not good. We never should've came out here. We're going to die! We're going to di-!"
"RANBOO BREATHE FOR FUCKS SAKE! Breathe in.. and out. In.. and out.."
Tubbo just continued to drive on as Tommy tried to calm Ranboo down, swerving everywhere and hitting random things. He hit another corner, causing Tommy and Ranboo to glare.
"TUBBO, PLEASE BE CAREFUL WITH YOUR TURNING!" Ranboo shouted as xe gripped their seatbelt for dear life. "WE'RE GOING TO DIE! WE'RE GOING TO FUCKING DI-!"
"RANBOO, SHUT THE FUCK UP YOU'RE NOT GOING TO DIE. IF YOU DON'T STOP, I'LL MAKE YOU SHUT UP" Tommy snapped.
"HOW CAN I CALM DOWN WHEN TUBBO IS-" Ranboo got cut off
"BOO, I SWEAR IF YOU DON'T CALM THE FUCK DOWN, I'M GOING TO STRANGLE YOU IN YOUR SLEEP" Tubbo screamed out suddenly, causing the whole car to silent
It stayed like that for a moment before all three began to burst out in laughter, tears streaming down their faces as they wheezed and laughed like maniacs.
"I can't believe you fucking threatened to strangle him in his sleep" Tommy said, gasping for air as he clutched his stomach
"I can't believe I almost had a panic attack!" Ranboo shouted as he wiped his tears.
"I can't believe any of us are out here, actually"
"Good point"
“But seriously guys, can you try and enjoy yourselves? I'm not gonna let us get killed.” Tubbo gently reassured as he stopped at a stoplight.
Tommy and Ranboo just exchanged looks before sighing and sitting back in their seats.
“I guess so.. Were already out” Tommy mumbled
“That's the spirit!” Tubbo said before turning the radio on.
The car was silent for a bit until a very familiar tune started playing. Ranboo grinned as he looked at Tubbo, who was happily singing along to the song, before he started singing along too.
I got my head out the sunroof
I'm blasting our favorite tunes
I only got one thing on my mind
Tommy perked up a bit as he looked out the windshield, the Smarty's sign was coming into view.
Soon, all three were belting out the lyrics to the song as they drove closer and closer.
You got me stuck on the thought of you
You're making me feel brand new
You're more than the sunshine in my eyes
They drove into the parking lot and parked the car, still singing as they all hopped out. They got their snacks (including Tommy's chocolate cake and can of coke) and hopped back in the car.
Soon the whole car ride was filled with loud laughter, swerving around and random songs being blasted.
All three teens had never been happier.
And as the sun rose, Tubbo finally pulled up back at his and ranboos house, sighing as he looked at them. "So? How was that for a fun 4am adventure?"
"Never again.." Ranboo muttered as they finished their bag of chips
"Hell yeah. That was the most fun I've had since that time we got high!" Tommy exclaimed happily
Tubbo giggled, "See? I told you! Teenage rebellion is in our blood!”
“Oh man, never again will I ever get high, Tubbo and I inhaled half the food in our house after that fiasco..”
Tubbo cackled at Ranboo's words, shaking his head a bit, "Man, that was a hell of a night!"
"You can say that again.." Tommy muttered as he finished his cake.
“We definitely have to do this again!”
“Definitely!” Tommy said before both of them looked over to Ranboo. Ranboo stared at them both before finally sighing in defeat.
“Okay yeah, definitely. But maybe next time don't try and drive us into a ravine?”
Tubbo laughed and playfully swatted at Ranboo, causing Ranboo to grab a package of gummy bears and throw a few at him. Tommy just stared at his two goofy best friends and chuckled to himself.
He couldn't deny that his family wasn't really strict.
But he would definitely be grounded for this.
Oh well.
It was worth the cake.
