Prompt: From g_k, Tommy climbs a tree and gets stuck. Me and
lixi_des92 decided that it was time for the return of Silver Twink from my story #tommywaswinner. So, a sequel was born.
Disclaimer: Made up. Lying as fast as I can. Nobody will ever give me money for this. Don’t Tweet it to anyone portrayed in this ridiculous story.
Tommy looked at his phone, checking Twitter to see if anything was happening. He had a slow moment between sound check and the show, and he was just walking around. The fans were mostly on the other side of the venue, so he could actually have some alone time. He needed it, on a big tour like this. He loved the crowds and everyone on the tour, but he needed his Tommy time. He looked up as a breeze ruffled his hair. Yeah, it was perfect.
A second later, his blood froze as he heard a familiar screech coming from a block away. “You fucking SLUT!”
No. Oh no way. It was Silver Twink again. Tommy froze and he felt his phone slip out of his hand as he saw his nemesis run towards him. “Fuck you Tommy! I was in jail for three months! I was sent to therapy and it’s all your fault! And you still aren’t good enough for him-you or that little Finnish whore! I hate you, you ruined my life!”
Tommy started running, but there seemed to be nowhere to go. There was an alley, but it was blocked by a dumpster. In front of him was a parking lot that was suspiciously deserted for being so close to an Adam Lambert show-Silver Twink would just tackle him there. He stopped, breathing hard, and then he looked at a nice tall tree with wide branches, next to the street. Silver Twink was still coming.
He mentally crossed his fingers and jumped up. He grabbed the nearest branch and started scrambling up as a still yelling Silver Twink grabbed him by his ankle and pulled. “Fuck you, leave me alone!” He yelled, and pulled his leg out of Silver’s grip. He didn’t even think about it, he just climbed until he was far enough up that Silver Twink looked a lot less scary.
Silver Twink kept screaming, even as he attracted a crowd near the edges of the block, and soonTommy’ bodyguard he had ditched ran up and grabbed Silver Twink, putting him in a hold. “Get him away from me!” Tommy screeched. “He’s crazy! He went after me again.” Silver Twink put up a fight, and from his view he could see that his roots were coming in. “You look like shit, asshole,” he yelled, and Silver Twink growled and tried to rush the tree again. Tommy held onto his branch tighter. Maybe I shouldn’t mock him, he thought. He watched as security came over and took Silver Twink away, and then he tried to get down.
“Um,” he said, staring down at the little group of fans and his bodyguard. “Help?”
Tommy wasn’t sure how long he was in that tree, but it was long enough that he heard “Kitty Tommy! Look, he’s a kitten! Awww, so cute!” from the fans gathered around several dozen times. Some of the fans tried to pep-talk him down, but he noticed that none of them seem inclined to climb the tree themselves. Tommy tried, he did, but even with that asshole gone, he couldn’t make himself let go of the branch. Plus if he looked down too long, he started to feel dizzy He shut his eyes and held on until he heard a familiar voice.
“Tommy? Tommy what happened?” It was Adam and his bodyguard, who started clearing the fans away. Sauli was with him, and for once he wasn’t smiling but looking concerned. “Honey, what are you doing up a tree? You hate heights.” He walked over and put his hand on the trunk of the tree, trying to reassure Tommy from that small gesture. It worked.
“That fucker that attacked me that time? He’s back.” A look crossed Adam’s face that was entirely furious, and Tommy rushed to reassure him. “Don’t worry, Rusty got him. I’ll be okay, if I could just…” he looked down again and grabbed his branch tighter. “You might have to call the fire department or something.”
“Fuck that,” Adam said. He turned to his bodyguard. “Hey, can I get a ladder or something?” But by this time, the police had arrived. Tommy saw Silver Twink in the back of the police car. He yelled something, but Tommy couldn’t hear him. He dared to let go of the branch long enough to wave, then he grabbed it even harder.
One of the cops walked close to the tree and stared at him. “Can’t get down?” he said, and Tommy had to bite back the No shit, Sherlock he was thinking. “We can get you down. We can get a ladder.” He turned to go back to the car, and Adam looked over his way.
“Officer, if you can hold the ladder I can get him down. He’s scared of heights, but we’re friends. I’m pretty sure I can do it.” The cop stared at him, and Tommy thought that Adam must have looked totally weird to him. Then he nodded, and went back to the car to call for a ladder.
When the door was opened, Silver Twink yelled out “whore!” and the cop glared at him. He shrunk back in his seat, and Tommy grinned. He really hoped Silver Twink went back to jail. Like, with the power of a thousand burning suns he hoped the fucker went back to jail.
Tommy’s arms were sore by the time the ladder finally got there, and when the officer stabilized it so Adam could climb up to him, he nearly cried with relief. “Get me down,” he said, and Adam took his hand. After that, he could slowly get himself down, Adam moving one step down the ladder for every step he took. He trusted Adam and the cop not to let him fall. Sauli stayed right by the tree, and when he got down, he got a hug from two of his favorite people.
“You FUCKER!” Oh shit, Silver Twink was trying to get out of the police car, even with his hands cuffed behind him. Tommy couldn’t help it, he hid behind Adam, which only made the fucker angrier. The cop just went over there and glared at him.
“Don’t make me tase you,” he said, and Silver Twink went limp and started crying, blubbering that he loved Adam and Tommy was evil. Tommy just shook his head and all three of them walked back towards the venue.
“I’m sorry you got chased into tree,” Sauli said. “That was scary. Doesn’t he know that you are not with Adam?” Tommy shrugged, then shook his arms to try to get the feeling back into them.
“I don’t think he cares at this point, but he doesn’t like you either.” Tommy didn’t say anything else for a second, then he sighed, frustrated. “I’m gonna be on the news again. Everyone’s gonna make cat jokes.”
“Oh, they already are,” Adam assured him. “I heard the Kitten-Tommy stuff about seventeen times when fans were trying to tell me you were up a tree. It’s like they think you just do that in your spare time.” Tommy groaned and Sauli rubbed his back.
“It is okay. You are safe. What gets said doesn’t matter now.” Tommy picked up his phone from where he had dropped it, and checked twitter to make sure it worked.
Sure enough, “#kittytommy” was a trend.
