548 Dannys POV
I sighed as I heard Toms monologue to himself about his hoodie, he had completely forgotten that he still had one of our hoodies we sold as merchandise on tour, couldn't even remember that our band was called McFly. It saddened me so much to see how much Tom couldn't remember. It hurt so much. "its our tour hoodie Tom, from the other year." I explained to him, squeezing his hands. "oh, okay." Tom nodded, looking like he was in thought. His stomach started grumbling so I quickly took him downstairs and to give him some toast, finding Harry and Dougie already downstairs, milling around the kitchen, looking half asleep.
"morning." Dougie greeted, his head face planting his arm on the table. "morning, tired Doug?" I laughed, ruffling his messy hair as I wandered past. "little bit, I'll be fine soon as soon as I get some sugar." Dougie smiled, grabbing Harrys hand as he reordered his hair. "alright, whatever you say Dougs." I teased, buttering the toast and feeding a bit to Tom, only just avoiding having my fingers bitten. I think I would miss this when Tom went, being able to give Tom his meals and whatever other things he wanted to eat. I admittedly quite liked it, because I was watching Tom eat, knowing that he was eating. But, surely he would be eating afterwards anyway, so I wouldn't have to worry about it. I was desperately trying to think of the positive points. It wasn't going so well at the moment. So far, that was it, and the fact that we would have our lives back. That still wasn't enough to make me not want to keep Tom here, I was going to miss him so much. Which reminded me, I needed to do some preparation for next week...it was next week. Since when did time pass THIS quickly?! I hoped it would pass this quickly while Tom was away, but I had a feeling that time wasn't going to be that kind to me.
"whats the plan for today then?" Harry broke me from my thoughts, leaning down in the same position as Dougie. "well, I have no clue. We don't have anything to do today I don't think." Well, I did, but I couldn't do any of it while Tom was there. He would have figured out what was going on, /and that was one thing that wasn't going to happen. Tom was going to enjoy his last week of the year, his last week here for a while. Finding out what was happening would destroy him. I would sort everything out while he was sleeping, or at least distracted, so he didn't notice.
"thats good, I'm not going home then." Dougie joked, giving Tom a longing look, I doubted he would have gone home unless it was absolutely necessary now. He knew there was only a week left, I doubted any of us wanted to go home and leave Tom. "then I'm not going home either. So, I think we should spend some time playing." Harry suggested, sitting up a little. "I'm game! We haven't jammed in ages!" Dougie bounced into life, I dreaded to think how long it had been since he had played his bass. Before I even got a word of agreement in, Harry was dragging Dougie upstairs at the speed of light to set up...they had really missed playing. "gunna come play with us Tommy?" I turned to Tom, realising that I hadn't really paying him much attention, just subconsciously feeding him his breakfast. "yeah." Tom answered simply, letting me lead him upstairs too.
Tom seemed to be a little out of it this morning, but when he got into his music room and picked up his guitar, he seemed to get back to his normal self. He wasn't very good with playing admittedly, but, Tom wasn't too bad, considering his currently mental state. We just let Tom play whatever he wanted, all of us making random noise for a while. It helped us all to play for a little while, to be a band again. But still, it was clear that something was wrong, because Tom couldn't keep up with us. He was trying his very hardest, but he couldn't keep up. He gave up in the end, deciding to curl up next to me instead, enjoying hearing us play. I had to take a few shaky breaths to stop myself from crying again, had to remind myself that this wasn't permanent, he was going to get better, thats why he was going away. Tom was going to go away, and then come back, and when he did, he was going to be able to play again. We could go back to normal, we could be normal. That was what we all wanted, to be normal... but I didn't want normal if it meant giving Tom up!
549 Toms POV
Days moved really quickly, and every day everyone got closer and closer to me. I was never not being cuddled anymore, there was always someones arms around me. Mostly, it was Danny hugging me, at the same time as his and my friends, and Carrie. I really liked it, because I liked cuddles. But everyone else looked so sad! Even on new years eve, everyone was sad, wasn't it supposed to be a happy day? Danny just said it was because everyone was sad that the year was over, that made a bit of sense, but, why were they sad when they looked at me? Because you're hopeless. How was I hopeless? I was just stood here, hugging my friends!
"Tommy, you do know what happens at new year when it hits midnight, right?" Danny asked, stopping me from thinking. "yeah, the sky lights up!" I was excited about that, the sky was already lit up by stars, but I couldn't wait to see it light up in different colours! "yeah, thats what happens, do you want to see it from the field later on then?" Danny asked, I nodded. It would be pretty to see all the lights in the sky going boom and making patterns! "good, we'll go out together then, the 5 of us, that'll be fun, wont it?" Danny looked sad again, but he was smiling like he was trying not to be sad. I hugged him tightly, I didn't want him to be sad! You caused him to be sad. Its your fault! But I didn't do anything! Why did this person keep on telling me that I was causing this when I hadn't done anything? Because I'm right, they're getting annoyed because of you and thats why they're sad. What had I done?!
"nothing Tommy, you haven't done anything. I'm having a silly moment, alright? Me and Dougie are having silly moments, thats all." Danny squeezed me really hard, I looked out the window to see my friend and Dannys friend hugging too. My friend looked really sad, like Danny. Could everyone be that upset by the new year? But, why? You were sad last year. Was I? Oh yeah... I was really sad last new year. I remembered sitting by the window, looking up at the sky, I couldn't see much, it had been blurry. My cheeks had been wet too, maybe it was okay to be sad at new year then? It couldn't have been nice though, being sad like that. That was why the sky lit up, to cheer up the sad people.
Danny cheered up a little while later, holding me to his chest instead, making sure he was touching me all the time. My friend cheered up too, him and Dannys friend hugged me again too, so we were walking around in a bug huddle when we moved. It was funny, we kept on stepping on each other and falling over. I never fell though, Danny stopped me every time I wobbled. At the moment, we had moved to the room with the small screen in it, sitting on the floor together. I was getting sleepy now. Very, very sleepy. I liked sleeping, but I wanted to watch the sky! The sky hadn't lit up yet, I wanted to see the sky light up!
"shh, Tommy go to sleep. We'll wake you up when its time to see the sky light up, alright? Just, go to sleep now, or you wont see the lights properly." Danny rubbed my arm, putting my Star Wars blanket around me. I made a whining sound, I wanted to be awake! Go to sleep or you'll make everyone sad again. I didn't want to make everyone sad! "its alright, its only a couple of hours, we'll still be here." Danny promised, his lips going to my hair again. He looked sad again, everyone did. See? Now go to sleep, stop them being sad. "okay." I gave in, so they weren't sad anymore.
I fell asleep and dreamt about the sky lighting up and going boom a lot! I didn't like it when the sky went boom most of the time, but when it lit up with loads of different colours, then I loved it! I loved the sky lighting up! "Tom, Tommy its time, we've got a few minutes and its going to start!" Danny woke me up, I started to feel excited straight away. The sky was going to light up soon! It didn't happen that much, but it was going to light up in a good way! We rushed to put on our coats and shoes, running outside to watch the sky. Everyone counted down the last few seconds, and then BOOM! The sky lit up with red! And then yellow! Then green! Then blue! Loads of colours came out, making a 'weeeeeeee' sound before going boom!
Our friends squished their faces together when it went boom, their mouths pressing together too. But me and Danny were watching the sky! It looked so pretty! "happy new year Tommy!" Danny smiled, his lips going to my cheek as his eyes filled up with water. "happy new year Danny!" I hugged him tight, putting my lips to Dannys cheek too, because it seemed to be the right thing to do. He smiled at it, holding me as we looked up to the sky again, watching it light up over and over again for hours. No-one made weird sounds or got wet cheeks either, so maybe new year wasn't so sad!
