Summary
"You should get going kid, it was fun hanging out but it's getting late, I hope your parents aren't worried sick." Dream managed to breath out after finally calming down from his fit of wheezing laughter.
Tommy quieted down at that, staring at Dream for a second. "Can I tell you something, big man?"
Dream, curious of the sudden change of demeanor, raised a brow. "Shoot."
A sigh escaped Tommy's lips, "I- well, I don't actually have a family, not really, anyway." Tommy quietly muttered, doing his best not to reveal the dishonesty leaking out of his words. "My real family died when I was a kid, and I miss them a lot. But, well, the replacement of a family I have now aren't good people. I just- I just don't want to go home to them." And although he knew he was lying straight through his teeth, he couldn't help but feel a truth to his words. They really weren't the family he grew up with. "Can I please stay with you?"
