    Summary

    Tommy didn't mean to leave his house in a mess whilst his dad was at work. But setting off a firework inside didn't justify Phil getting him a babysitter at fourteen years old.

    But Wilbur was weird. Weird because he wore sunglasses in the middle of September. And because he was a vampire.

    To be more accurate, he was a fledgling. Wilbur insisted on not becoming one of them. He feared losing his own humanity, breaking away from everything that once made him human.

    Though, Wilbur didn't know that the kid he babysat was all he needed to keep that humanity.

    Summary

    The first thing that happens when Tommy Innes crashes during his 159th lap around Auto Club Speedway, is his wheel loses traction with the ground, and he goes careening to the right...
    -
    Tommy Innes has dreamed of being a race car driver since he was four years old. Now, at eighteen, he's the youngest rookie on the NASCAR tracks, and about to participate in his very first Cup Series. When a bad wreck leaves him with a butchered sense of hearing, though, he and his new team must navigate the challenges that come along with it. Including, but not limited to: new tech; Tommy's own self-doubt; and one utterly irritating, legendary racer, Wilbur Soot.

    Summary

    ‘Wilbur scoffs dramatically “We are four years older than you, if anything Phil’s the old one,”

    “Hey, leave me out of this!” Phil laughs with a mouthful of food.

    Tommy rolls his eyes at his family before turning his attention back to his plate, tuning out the conversation, having heard this debate many times before.

    Despite how annoying they are, it’s nice to feel like his family is still present, as if they are always around. This sense of normalcy never lasted though. Techno has always preferred the company of the local library where he would lose himself in a book, Phil is either working in his home office, at a meeting or sleeping to make up for overworking himself, while Wilbur is so focused on making music that he forgets it used to be the glue that held the family together.’

    Or Tommy misses how life used to be, before his mother passed away, before everything changed, and he doesn't know how to make everything right again, so instead, he rebels and pushes his loved ones away.

    Summary

    "Are you alright, your Highness?"

    When Wilbur blinks, his vision focuses. Tommy is crouching in front of him, and Wilbur sucks in a deep breath.

    Now that the world is still again, Wilbur is acutely aware of the rapid pounding of his heart, the strum of panic in his veins.

    He'd almost died, he realises belatedly.

    But he hadn't. Because Tommy had saved him
    -

    Wilbur doesn't want a guard—and he plans on making sure that Tommy knows it. Unfortunately, things change when Wilbur ends up getting more attached than he means to.

    ~ft. Wilbur as a prince, Tommy as the knight protecting him, and a realisation that neither can stand to let the other get hurt.
