'Missing' in space

-- CHAPTER TWO --

It was a sunny day, it was a normal day of course since it was Sunny, but for Techno that meant he would be sweating today. He had fencing lessons today with three classes, and in this heat it was always a little harder to teach and learn, but they had gone through this before and so will they today.

"Alright class lets start with-" He started when he walked into the room of the first class. He didn't let the worried faces of some students distract him from teaching, it was a normal day for him and he would keep it that way. Even if he knew his phone was going crazy with messages from his dad and Tubbo, his friends also trying to make sure he was okay since it had hit him the hardest when Tommy left but he would keep his mind in check. Today being the day of Tommys leaving was not going to ruin his day. Even if they hadnt heard from him for five months already.

"I know what you may all think, but lets continue with our lessons and not talk about this." He declared, leaving no room to debate as he started teaching his first class of the day.

The rest of the day went as normal as it could have been. His friends and family kept nagging him until he told them to finally leave him alone, he could take care of himself and he knew that Tommy would be back soon. It was only one more year before his brother would come back, he could life with that.

As for Tubbo and Phil, he didnt know if they could. They may look at peace for everyone, calm and a bit worried but not overreacting, but Techno knew the Truth. He knew his Dad would probably text his youngest all the time to the spacecraft, would pace around the house and probably have sleeples night worrying about Tommy. Tubbo was surely overworking himself to not think to much about his Brother in Space, working on homework over and over again, learning for test just in case there would be one and going out as much as possible as to not be alone. Alone meant thinking, and thinking wasn't always that good. But he himself was no better. He would give more fencing lessons, keep training and going to fencing competitions , he would sometimes even take up lessons from other Teachers when they had a important thing to go to, which he normaly never did, but he , like his brothers, would do anything to not be alone too much of the day.

But the time alone had to come. He was ready to go to bed, coffee mug empty , mails all answered and read, meetings planed  and everything for the next week was planed out. He had nothing else to do now. His dog was already fast asleep in his bedroom, he had already talked to Phil and Tubbo, both were worried about him and he was worried about them. It was a given. With a sigh he put his mug into the dishwasher and went to bed. But sleep never came. All he could do now was think about Tommy. His brother out in space. His brother who hadn't answered any of their messages in the last few days to weeks. 

He slowly sat up and took his phone from his nightstand. He opened the texts to Tommys spacecraft, everyone on the spacecraft had their own mail that worked up there. 

Hey theseus, I hope you're doing alright. I know i don't often message, i let Tubbo and Phil annoy you with that, but you haven't answered to them and haven't callem me once in the last few days, It would be nice to know you are still doing fine. Don't leave us hanging like that Thes. 

I understand if you are buys, but a sign of life would be awesome

-The blade (i still do not like that nickname.) 

It suprisingly only took ten minutes before his phone went of with a notification. He was quick to open it and see Tommys response 

I'm fine, can't talk right now. - Tommy

it was short , of course, but Techno was just happy to atleast have gotten a reply.
