Because I was in the feels last night I thought a lot about Bumlets in me and @chaosfairy18 modern au, I just thought about posting it

Philip is Fipper in the au

TW: Homophobia

Bumlets parents are not that friendly, to say the least. Very homophobic especially when they find out Bumlets is gay or at the very least understand he is into boys (summer before Junior year of high school)

They were horrible to begin with but things just got worse so they kicked him out and he went to pack whatever he can, glad hes getting out of this place but then his little brother Flipper is at his bedroom door.

The small boy has tears down his cheeks and Bumlets starts to cry all over again. He hugs him so tight and Flipper doesn't want to let go although hes pulled away by his mom who's shouting slurs at Bumlets and telling him not to infect Flipper. Flipper is screaming for him but Bumlets tells him to be good and listen to his mom despite Bumlets not wanting him to listen to them.

Bumlets gets pretty much all the important things clothes, money, a few personal items. He then drives to Swiftys house and walks up to their door but pauses, scared they won't even take him in.

Swiftys mom (Ayano) sees Bumlets hovering at the door and she already called up to Swifty that Bumlets is here. But she opens the door to find him with a blank expression and around his eyes are red.

She asks him what's wrong but nothing comes out of Bumlets mouth and Swifty comes up behind her to see the broken boy. Swifty takes in his state and leads him to the living room. His mom already has tea and cookies for them. Once all sitting down Bumlets says "I got kicked out." and all Swifty can do is hold him so tightly and Ayano as well, telling him "It's okay dear, you're safe with us."

Bumlets breaks down again and Swifty just holds him so tightly. They eventually go to Swiftys room and Bumlets cries again, "They still have Philip-god they said they didn't want him to turn out like me." Swifty just tells him "It's okay, things will work out." but he wishes he could get Flipper back right now.

Ayano then goes over to Martins' house(Swifty neighbor and close family friend, and acts like a grandparent) and finds her husband there with him and tells them of Bumlets and asks if Martin has a spare room. OFC he does and accepts him the next day despite Bumlets not wanting to disturb him or be a burden (like his parents say).

Martin doesn't mind, he doesn't want the kid to be homeless and then he would be close to Swifty. They get him all settled in the next day and Swifty always visits him and makes sure he is okay.
