I stared at Timothy in shock.

"What is going on?" Charlie glared at me for a moment.

"You've been pretending like we're still together all this time?" Timothy snared.

It finally dawned on Charlie that Timothy remembered. "I.. yes, but we had to because you were supposed to remember on your own. And I was just glad because I wish I never broke up with you." Charlie grabbed Timothy's hand but he immediately jerked it away.

"Don't!" Timothy screamed.

"I'm sorry." Charlie said.

Here it was. The moment where Timothy would take Charlie back.

I told myself it was fine. So long as Timothy was happy and safe.

Timothy's eyes teared up.

"But I still love-"

"Get out." Timothy snapped.

I was so shocked. I watched at Timothy in disbelief.

"What? Just let me explain."

"I can't even look at you. Get out!" Timothy screamed. He was seriously upset.

Charlie wanted to protest and that's when I stepped in.

"Are you really gonna argue with him now? Leave."

Charlie looked so hurt. His eyes teared up. "Look, I'll explain everything later. I'm so sorry. I'll make it up to you." With that he left the room. I stared after him.

Was Timothy still confused? He couldn't really be all there to blow up at Charlie like that. He never got mad even when he had the right to. It wasn't like him.

I heard sniffling and looked at Timothy again. He was crying.

"Josh, I'm so sorry. I didn't know.." Timothy attempted to get up.

"No, don't get out of bed!" I pushed him back down.

"I'm so sorry!" He cried.

"For what?" I wrapped my arms around him. What could he possibly have to apologize for?

"For kissing Charlie, I forgot-"

"You have nothing to apologize for." I insisted. "I should be apologizing. This is all my fault!"

"What are you talking about?"

"Do you remember everything? The winter formal and.."

Timothy nodded.

"I blamed you for everything. Because of that you walked alone in the dark and you were an easy target. It's my fault."

Timothy shook his head.

"I am so sorry."

"Josh, this isn't your fault. Everyone fights sometimes."

"Not you!" I got up. "You are the most patient, kindest person I know. You've had multiple chances to completely lose your shit on me and you never do! And I see one idiot make a move on you and I tell you the worst things you could ever say to someone. Things that aren't true. You're not cold, you're the sweetest person with the biggest heart."

Timothy looked relieved. Then worry took over again.

"It must've been hard to see me with Charlie. After everything you said. Everything you worried about." Timothy said.

I shook my head. He was impossible. I was the one that had wronged him and still he could only see how bad I must feel. He was so infuriating. Just hate me! But no. Of course he wouldn't.
