Silent and Still

For all his understanding of the situation and his own emotions, Tommy didn’t quite get why talking was so important. Though, he should have remembered how relieving it felt to tell Wilbur what happened in exile. He should have remembered how suffocating it felt to keep it all inside. He should have remembered how he felt back then, but maybe- possibly- while he had been trying to move on, he lost sight altogether.Because Tommy sure wasn’t prepared for the panic he felt when Wilbur didn’t come back from his early morning walk.-AU where Tommy and Wilbur leave the SMP to live together and start fresh. Both are really bad at communicating, and it takes one panic attack for everything to tumble out. For better or for worse.
