Soon as it was morning, Tommy carefully slipped out of Kyle's bed. Making absolutely sure that he wasn't disturbed before he hurried to Andy's room. Being as quiet as humanly possible as he tip toed over to the younger teen's bed. Chucky and Andy were curled up together as the younger teen slept. Softly snoring as he had an arm around the other Buddi. Who promptly turned his head to stare down at him. As he crossed his arms, he whispered,"Get down here, we need to talk."

"Can't it wait until Andy is awake?",Chucky whispered. Not wanting to wake the younger teen until he absolutely had to. It was a Sunday after all. Frowning slightly when Tommy shook his head that it couldn't. Glaring at him harshly as he whispered,"Get down here or I'm dragging your sorry ass out of there."

"You got to the count of three.",he added. Holding up one hand, he started counting down to three. Nearly getting to the number before Chucky slipped out of Andy's bed. Taking extra caution to not wake him as did so. Once his feet were on the ground, Tommy grabbed his upper arm. Dragging him out of the room and into the hallway. Glaring him in the eye as he whispered,"Kyle's been having nightmares because of your fucking bullshit."

"You've scared him into thinking you'll kill everyone just to keep him and Andy.",Tommy added. Grabbing his other upper arm tightly as he did so. Gritting his teeth as he sneered at the other Buddi. In an annoyed tone, he continued,"I'm sick to death of you freaking him out. It stops here."

Chucky tried to shrug Tommy's hands off as he glared back. How dare he insinuate that it was his fault Kyle was having nightmares. There was no possible way that it was just his fault. He wasn't the only one who ever threatened or hurt Kyle. After all, Tommy was the one who broke the older teen's ankle. And as he tried to shove his hands off, Chucky stated,"That's a lot of nerve from the guy who broke his ankle and threatened him in the first place."

"Where do you get off acting so damn high and mighty?",Chucky questioned. Glaring the other Buddi in the eye as he managed to get his hands off. That made him pause as he thought that over. Sure, he was right about that. But he was doing better now. Treating Kyle much better and more like an equal than Chucky seemed to be. Though, he had to admit, it did make him seem like a hypocrite. He sighed as he nodded his head slightly. Then he stated,"Yes, I know. But I'm trying my hardest to be a better person. You're still being controlling as Hell."

"And I think you've definitely hurt him worse than I ever could.",Tommy added. At least, he believed what he'd done hurt him more. As Kyle's broken ankle would be properly mended in a couple of more weeks. His trust in the other Buddi wouldn't be as easily fixed. Shoving that thought to the side, Tommy said,"My point still stands. Stop trying to control every aspect of my boy's life or else."

"Or else what? You'll lecture me some more?",Chucky challenged. Tilting his head to the side as he glared into Tommy's eyes. Setting his hands on his hips as he did so. Eyes widening in shock when the other Buddi punched him hard in the face. Causing him to nearly fall over in the process. Holding his cheek, he stared at Tommy. Who's eyes glowed the same eerie red his own did from time to time. Tommy answered,"I'm so done playing Mr. Nice Guy. You hurt my boy or even make him feel threatened, I really will dismantle you."

"Do I make myself clear, Chuck?",he questioned. Setting his own hands on his hips as he sneered at the other Buddi. Feeling a little bit of pride when Chucky rubbed the area he had punched. Chucky nodded his head as he answered,"Yes, you've made yourself perfectly clear."

"I'll do my best to not scare him more in the future.",he added. Turning away from the other Buddi and quietly heading back into Andy's room. Climbing back into the younger teen's bed as carefully as humanly possible. Then snuggling right back against him as he pretended that Tommy didn't exist. If he had noticed that, he didn't say anything as he shut the door. Quietly going back to Kyle's room as he listened for signs of Karen waking up. Fearing that she would have come out of her room at any moment. When she didn't, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Realizing just how awkward that would've been if she had seen either Buddi talking. Or had seen him punch Chucky as hard as he had done. As he wasn't entirely sure what he could've explained that to her. Putting those thoughts aside, he climbed into Kyle's bed again. Taking extra care to not wake the older teen. Wincing when his eyelids fluttered slightly but did not open. Nor did he seem like he was about to anytime soon.

Nuzzling his cheek against Kyle's chest as he tried to get comfortable again. Enjoying the steady sound of his heart beating as well. There was something so soothing about listening to that noise. It was hard to pinpoint just what exactly about it he liked. Tommy decided that he'd just think of it later as he laid against the older teen. A couple of hours later, the alarm on Kyle's phone went off. Prompting an annoyed groan from him as he slowly started to rise. Glenda slowly sitting up next to him as she yawned as well. Kyle carefully reached behind himself to grab his phone. Turning off the alarm as he said,"Good afternoon, guys."

"Good afternoon, Kyle. Did you sleep okay?",Glenda asked. The older teen confirmed that he definitely did. Hugging her against him gently before kissing her forehead. A small smile on his face as he pulled Tommy into a hug too. Kissing his forehead as well as he said,"Thanks to you guys. You really helped me feel a lot better."

"You're welcome, Kyle.",Tommy stated. Giving him a hug back as he returned the smile. It felt good knowing that he had helped his boy. And it felt great knowing that Chucky was going to keep away from him. If the other Buddi knew what was good for him at least. Getting Glenda off the bed, he hurried her to her room. Helping her find some clothes that she'd definitely would like. Thinking of various ways to put her hair up as well.

While he got Glenda ready, Kyle slowly got ready for the day. Picking out his favorite clothes from his dresser as he thought of what to do. Barely noticing the tiny figure coming into the room. Jumping slightly when Chucky yanked on his pant leg. In a soft voice, he asked,"Do you have any big plans today, Kyle?"

"Nah, I've got really nothing on my agenda today. Why?",Kyle questioned. Looking down at him as he raised an eyebrow. Noticing that there was a strange marking on his cheek that looked odd. Almost as if he had been hit or something. Pointing to his own cheek, Kyle asked,"Dude, the Hell happened to your face?"

"Fell out of Andy's bed this morning.",Chucky answered. Putting his hand over the mark as he glanced away. It sort of made him doubt that was the truth. As he wasn't acting like it was a simple fall out of the bed. In fact, he was acting as if someone had hit him. Making him raise an eyebrow as he slowly sat down on the floor. Trying to get to Chucky's eye level as he asked,"Are you absolutely sure that's what happened, Chuck?"

"Yes. That's what happened.",he answered. Before Kyle could question him more, he stated,"I'll tell Andy that you're not busy today. I do believe he wants to hang out with you."

"That sounds cool.",Kyle stated. Carefully standing back up as the Buddi hurried out of the room. Sprinting past Tommy as he neared the older teen's bedroom. Not looking at him once as he made his way to Andy's room. His Buddi leaned against his door frame as he briefly glanced at Chucky's form. Glenda looking somewhat confused as she pondered what she had just seen. Turning to Kyle, Tommy questioned,"What did Chuck want?"

"Oh, he was delivering a question from Andy about possibly hanging out.",Kyle answered. Quickly grabbing some of his favorite clothes before heading to the bathroom. Putting his clothes under his armpit as he moved along. Quickly showering and fixing his hair before getting dressed. Soon as he was done, he grabbed his crutches. Heading out of the bathroom to see Tommy analyzing the bedroom door. Eyebrows furrowed as he examined the state of it. Now, that it was daylight. He could see the damage that Chucky inflicted upon his bedroom lock. It was worse than he initially believed it was. So much so that he was lucky the doorknob didn't just fall off. Frowning slightly, he said,"Yeesh. He said that he picked my bedroom lock not destroyed it."

"Chucky did this.",Tommy stated. It wasn't a question and he could clearly hear the malice in his tone. See the barely controlled anger in his face as he tensed up. Gently nudging him with his crutch, Kyle said,"Yes, he did. Only because he heard me screaming in my sleep last night like you did. I guess he was so worried that I was hurt that he broke it."

"Andy even came with him. So don't worry, he wasn't doing anything bad.",he added. Noticing that some of the tension left Tommy's body. Guessing that Andy made him feel a little better about the situation. He gave a soft sigh as he turned to Kyle. His expression was way more calm as he said,"I should give him more credit. At least he knows what to do in an emergency."

Kyle nodded his head at this as he turned to head downstairs. Where he could tell that Glenda already was at the moment. As he heard her singing the Buddi song with Chucky as they watched something on the T.V together. Figuring that Andy probably was downstairs with them. They hurried down the stairs to find Chucky and Andy sitting on the couch. Glenda sitting on the floor in front of Chucky. The other Buddi pulled her hair into space buns as they sang. Briefly waving at the pair as Chucky finished his work. Soon as he was done, she got up off the floor. Thanked him as she quickly side hugged him. Then ran over to Kyle while pointing to her hair. A big grin on her face as she asked,"Look what Chucky did, guys. Isn't it pretty?"

"You look very pretty, Glenda. He did an awesome job.",Kyle stated. Tommy nodded his head in agreement. Not liking that Chucky had done anything near Glenda's hair. But was grateful that he had been nice enough to do it. Despite him not really wanting the other Buddi to get too close to Glenda. Kyle for the most part understood that as he came into the living room. Heading over to the couch, he sat down as he asked,"So what's on the agenda for the day, Andy?"

"I was thinking we could play Overwatch for a while.",Andy suggests. That was a game that he definitely had wanted to play. Since he'd been curious about it for a long while. He agreed to playing it with the younger teen. Figuring they'd take turns playing it for a bit. As they got it set up, Kyle noticed that Glenda was standing between the Buddis. Looking annoyed as she stared at her older brother. Giving him a frown as she shrugs her shoulders. Putting one hand on Tommy's chest and the other on Chucky's chest. Both Buddis giving the other a very terrifying glare. Clearing his throat, he crossed his arms as the Buddis turned to him. Their angry glares fading as they stared at the older teen. In a gentle voice, he said,"Play nice guys. Or both of you are going into separate corners."

"Sorry, Kyle.",Tommy stated. Toying with his overall straps as he turned back to Glenda. Who looked a little less than thrilled with him. Grinning up at her nervously as he stopped toying with his overall straps. Tommy asked,"You want to play now?"

"Are you guys done with your staring contest?",Glenda questioned. Chucky nodded his head as he quickly said that they were. Tommy agreeing with him as they quickly shook hands together. Making a show that they were going to behave themselves. It was enough to make her smooth her expression before suggesting they play Clue. The Buddis quickly agreeing to her suggestion. Her Buddi quickly going to the closet that it was stored in. While Chucky sat down next to the coffee table with Glenda. Not saying a word as they waited for Tommy to come back. While they sat together, Kyle smiled slightly. Grateful that Glenda wasn't letting their bullshit slide. And that she was putting her foot down when it seemed to be needed. The pair didn't need to wait for their game that long. Since Tommy quickly appears with the game in less than two minutes. Quickly setting it up as he asked,"Here we go guys. Who wants to be who?"

"I want to be Marge this time.",Glenda answered. Toying with her hair as she waits for Tommy to put her character on the board. Chucky stated,"I want to be Bart for this round."

"Alright. And I'll be Homer.",Tommy said. Setting out his character along with Chucky's. As they played, Kyle watched Andy play the first match of Overwatch. The younger teen sitting down on the floor next to the couch. Back against it as he played the match. While he did so, someone was annoyingly shouting stupid stuff into their mic. Andy quickly hit mute as he continued to play the game. Looking up at Kyle as the older teen said,"Why do people even have freakin' mics if they're just gonna pull that."

"I dunno, dude. Thank god the mute button exists.",Andy stated. While they played, Kyle kept a careful eye on the trio next to them. Noticing that Tommy was definitely winning the game. And Chucky didn't seem all that happy with it. Putting that aside, he asked,"So, should we order lunch or just have left over Chinese food?"

"I vote we just order pizza.",Andy answered. Since he wasn't really in the mood for leftover Chinese food. And he doubted that Kyle really was either. As he noticed the older teen ordering them pizza on his phone. While he did that, Andy grinned as he got Player of the Game. Giggling at how bad the other team had done. Then handing the controller over to Kyle as he said,"Your turn, dude."

"Just a minute. Gotta confirm our order.",Kyle muttered. Once he did, he quickly took the remote from the younger teen. Playing the next round as a character that caught his eye. Apparently her name was 'Moira'. A healer from what the game had said. As he played, he slowly got frustrated with the other players for not being closer to him. But not complaining as he continued playing. Twenty minutes later, their food showed up. Kyle stopping the game entirely to enjoy a few slices. Noticing that the trio had finished playing their game a few moments ago. And from what it looked like, Tommy had definitely won the game more than once. Glenda pouting for a little while before she dug into the pizza he'd bought. Pizza seemingly fixing her pouty mood. Soon as everyone was done, they resumed playing their games.

An hour later, they turned off Overwatch and then the Playstation. After turning it off, Kyle asked,"So, what do you wanna play next?"

"How about we play 'Hide'n'seek'? Keep everyone involved.",Andy answered. It was also a way for him to keep an eye on Chucky. Wanting to be sure that Chucky wasn't doing anything bad without him around. And to keep an eye on the other Buddi. As he seemed to be acting pretty odd in the younger teen's mind. Grinning slightly when the older teen agreed. Kyle turned to the trio as he asked,"You guys want to play 'hide'n'seek' with us?"

"Only if Andy's the first seeker.",Glenda answered. Which the younger teen hesitantly agreed to. Wanting to have Kyle be the first seeker. While he hid somewhere with his Buddi. Soon as he agreed, he covered his eyes to start counting. Kyle hurried to find a decent hiding spot. With one of the Buddis quickly following after him. Only realizing that it was Chucky once they got into the living room closet. Seeing that this Buddi had the cleft chin. While Tommy didn't have one. Putting that to the side, he carefully arranged his crutches in the closet. Silently shutting the door after Chucky came in. Neither of them talking as they listened to Andy counting.

While they hid in the closet, Tommy went upstairs to hide in the bathroom. Glenda picked hiding behind the couch. Grinning widely as she watched Andy from her hiding spot. Soon as he was done counting, he hurriedly went to look for everyone. Finding Glenda too soon for her liking. But she didn't pout as she went to help him find everyone else. The pair headed upstairs to find Tommy. Searching all the rooms upstairs as quickly as possible. Glenda calling out his name to see if that would make him come out. While those two searched the upstairs. Chucky climbed into Kyle's lap as he waited for the others to find them. Not pushing the Buddi off as he got close to his face. Putting both his little hands on either sides as he stared into the older teen's eyes. Kyle gripped his waist gently as he asked,"What in the Hell are you doing?"

"Admiring your eyes...they're very pretty.",Chucky answered. Tilting his head to the side as he admired them. Trying to pull Kyle's face forward as he did so. Not making his intentions clear of whether he was going to kiss him. Or if he was simply admiring his eyes. While they sat together, Kyle heard footsteps approaching the closet. Quickly, he set Chucky next to him on the floor. Not looking at him as Tommy flung open the door. A small smile on his face that quickly disappeared when he saw Chucky. Instead of saying anything about that, he said,"It's Glenda's turn now."

Kyle nodded his head at this as he grabbed his crutches. Nudging Tommy backward as he headed out of the closet. Making sure his Buddi was following him instead of picking a fight with Chucky. Once everyone was in the living room, Glenda covered her eyes. Counting to one hundred like they usually did. The remaining four people hurrying to find decent hiding spots. Andy hiding in the closet that Kyle and Chucky hid in moments before. While Chucky hid under the couch. Tommy quietly helped Kyle hide under his own bed in his bedroom. Making sure his crutches weren't easily seen before getting under the bed with him. Covering his eyes to keep from being spotted too quickly. Once they did that, he heard Glenda finish counting and calling out to them. Telling them that she was coming whether they were ready or not.

Glenda carefully checked the living room for people. Quickly finding Chucky under the couch and raising an eyebrow at him. Dusting him off, she said,"That was kind of a stupid place to hide, Chucky. Now you're all dusty and dirty."

"Yeah. But I can get my clothes washed after we're done playing.",Chucky stated. Getting to his feet, he followed her as she went to look for everyone else. Quickly finding Andy's hiding spot as fast as she had found Chucky's. He went to help find Tommy and Kyle with her. Checking his own bedroom as Glenda and Chucky checked Karen's room then the bathroom. The pair then hurried over to Kyle's room. Chucky pulled back the blanket to reveal Kyle and Tommy laying under his bed. Tommy uncovering his eyes as he smiled up at Glenda. Quickly getting out from under the bed to get his boy his crutches. Waiting for Kyle to come out from under the bed. Handing it to him as Glenda said,"It's Chucky's turn."

"Why are you so dusty?",Tommy asked. Wiping a little dust off the other Buddi's shoulder as he stared at him. Chucky explained that he had hidden himself under the couch. And that it wasn't a big deal. They could have his clothes washed later. Raising an eyebrow, Tommy said nothing as they headed downstairs. Where Andy was waiting for them as he sat on the couch. Soon as everyone came down, he got up to find a hiding spot. While his Buddi covered his eyes and started counting. Glenda hurried upstairs to hide under Karen's bed. Tommy hiding in the bathtub. While he hid himself there, Kyle and Andy hid in the living room closet. Andy took his phone out of his pocket to check on where Chucky was. Worried that he'd do something messed up when he wasn't looking. Thankfully, the Buddi seemed to be keeping to his word. Still dutifully counting to the hundred that he was supposed to. When he was finished, Andy closed the app. Fearing that the Buddi would easily find them if he heard his voice coming from the closet.

Chucky hurried to find everyone. Heading to the living room closet first to find both teens hiding. Raisin an eyebrow as he stared at them. Unsure of who was it when they were both hiding together like this. Kyle stated,"I'll be it for the next round. Make it a little easier on us."

Grabbing his crutches before he headed out of the closet to help find Glenda and Tommy. Andy following after him as they went upstairs. The younger teen finding Tommy hiding in the bathtub pretty easily. While Chucky and Kyle had a bit of an issue finding Glenda. As they searched most of the rooms for her. Getting to Karen's last as Chucky asked,"Do you really think she'd hide in here?"

"Probably. I mean it's the last place we can check. So she's gotta be in here.",Kyle stated. Hoping that she was hiding somewhere in the bedroom. As there definitely wasn't anywhere else for the six-year-old to easily hide. He quickly went over to the closet and opened it up to find nothing in there. Then headed over to the small bathroom that Karen had. Finding no one in there. While he searched both spots, Chucky peeked under the bed. Seeing Glenda's little feet sticking out as she stifled her giggles. Tickling her foot, he said,"I found you, goofy. It's time to come out."

She kept giggling as she slid out from under the bed. Grinning ear to ear as she stared up at Chucky. Then glanced over her shoulder to see Kyle hobbling into the room. Raising an eyebrow, she asked,"So who's it this time?"

"Me. And this is the last game before dinner.",Kyle answered. Shutting the bathroom door before shutting the closet door. Then ushering Andy's Buddi and his little sister out of the room. Soon as they were out, he closed the door behind him. Telling them both that Karen's bedroom was going to be off limits for every hide'n'seek game from now on. The pair agreed as they all made their way back downstairs. Where Tommy and Andy were patiently waiting for the three of them. As soon as they were in the living room, Kyle carefully covered his eyes. Counting to one hundred as slowly as possible. While he did that, Tommy dragged Chucky upstairs with him to Andy's room. Making him hide in the closet with him as he covered his mouth. Hoping the other Buddi wouldn't cheat for the older teen. Andy watched them for a brief moment before going to find a decent hiding spot. Picking the bathtub like Tommy had picked a couple of rounds ago. Glenda hiding herself behind the couch. Keeping an eye on her big brother as she hid herself there. Not wanting to make the game too hard for him.

Since she knew walking around with his crutches wasn't easy.

Right when he was done, Kyle checked behind the couch. Grinning as he stared down at his little sister. Who hurried around the couch and quickly hugged his right leg. Then hurried to help him find the others. Both of them finding Andy in the bathtub then finding the Buddis in Andy's closet. The pair having a strange staring match when they were found. All of them headed back downstairs afterwards. Game being entirely finished as Kyle got his phone out. Opening the Kaslan Delivery app to get groceries to make something simple. Figuring that it'd been a while since they had chicken nuggets with fries. He also added green beans to the grocery list. Knowing that Glenda was going to need a vegetable to eat. And it was one of the few green foods that she was ever willing to eat. Adding a cheesecake to the list as well. As it'd been a while since either sibling had one. When he hit confirm, he sighed as he noticed it would take half an hour for their food to arrive. Telling the younger teen this, Andy suggested,"How about we play Uno while we wait?"

"I think the deck is still down here.",he added. Looking around for the supposed deck of Uno cards. Quickly finding them on the DVD rack. Picking it up he hurried to the coffee table. Where Glenda, Tommy, and Chucky were already seated. Kyle set his crutches against the wall before sitting on the couch. While they played, Tommy turned on the T.V to a cartoon channel. Keeping it as background noise as they played along. A little over thirty minutes later, the food arrived and Andy quickly got it. Helping Kyle into the kitchen to make dinner for them all. Soon as they were done, they set up the kitchen table. Calling Glenda into the room along with the Buddis'. The three of them hurried to their places as Kyle set out food for them. Sitting in his usual spot next to Glenda and Tommy. When everyone was done eating, Kyle and Andy washed the dishes. Glenda taking the Buddis into the living room to continue watching T.V. Making sure that neither tried to pick a fight. Neither Buddi looking at each other as they followed her into the living room.

While Kyle washed the dishes, Andy dried them. Setting them back in place as he kept a careful ear out for his Buddi. As they worked together, Kyle asked,"Did Chucky fall out of your bed this morning?"

"Not that I remember. Why?",Andy questioned. Looking over at the older teen with a confused look on his face. Noticing a similar look plastered on his face as he washed the plate Glenda had used. Rinsing it off, he answered,"There was this strange scuff-mark on his cheek. It looked like he fell off of something or got hit."

"Well, I don't remember him falling out of bed. I think I definitely would've heard him if he had.",Andy stated. Then pointed out that the Buddis kind of weighed as much as Glenda did. It'd be pretty difficult for any of them to not have heard him fall. Kyle washed some of the utensils as he thought that over. Andy had a point. But if Chucky hadn't actually fallen. Then how in the Hell did he get that strange mark on his face from? Looking at Andy, Kyle stated,"That's weird."

"...you don't think that Tommy had anything to do with it, do you?",Andy asked. He had to admit, that didn't really occur to him. Not that he thought about it, it definitely seemed plausible. Who else could have caused that strange mark on his face? Chewing his bottom lip, he nodded his head in agreement. Kyle stated,"Yeah. I'm starting to. But there's gotta be some kind of reason why he'd punch Chucky."

"Well, we can only hope that he's got a good reason.",Andy muttered. And he honestly couldn't disagree with that. Tommy didn't always have the best reason for what he did. Since he had done a few things that were pretty messed up. Shoving that to the side, he nodded his head slightly in agreement. Chewing his lip a bit more as he thought of how to ask his Buddi about it. Hoping that it wasn't in some messed up form of protection. Soon as the pair were done cleaning the dishes and Andy put the leftovers away, they headed into the living room. Noticing that Glenda was seated between Chucky and Tommy. Doing her best to keep them from attacking each other. While the pair did their best to pretend the other Buddi wasn't there. Kyle sighed as he nudged Tommy's shoulder with a small smile on his face. Inclining his head to the side as he asked him to follow him. Which his Buddi agreed to do as they headed to the kitchen for a little more privacy.

Looking him in the eye, Kyle asked,"Did you hurt Chucky, Tommy?"

"...yes. I punched him in the face this morning and threatened him because he scared you.",Tommy answered. Knowing full well that lying to him wouldn't be the wisest decision. As it seemed like Kyle already figured out what he'd done. Kyle frowning as he stared back. With a sigh, Kyle said,"Sweets, you can't just hurt someone for scaring me. It's just going to cause more problems then solve."

"So please, no more threatening or beating anyone.",he added. Tommy nodding his head in agreement. Though, he wasn't really going to do that. If he didn't do these things, then how was he going to protect Kyle? He just had to. Even if Kyle didn't understand this, he just had to. For now, he was going to placate the older teen. Soon as his boy believed that he wasn't going to do anything bad, they hurried back to the living room. Tommy smiling slightly as he took his seat next to Glenda. Watching the screen as his eyes briefly glowed bright red.
