TYLER's POV

I was temporarily living with Josh. His mom opened me into the family as soon as Josh told her my story. She gladly accepted Josh being gay, and it broke my heart a little that my mom and dad wouldn't do that. To them I was a complete freak.

It was after Josh kissed me the first time that I realized I was inlove with him. And I craved him.

******************************************************

"Josh?"

"Yes, Ty?"

"Get him out of my head."

"Who?"

"Blurry."

"Oh Ty, I wish that I could help you."

"Please do..."

*****************************************************

I can't take this anymore. I looked at myself in the mirror. I barely recognized myself anymore.

You're ugly. You're a mistake.

"Tyler?" Josh opened the bathroom door and sneaked in behind me.

"Hi", I mumbled.

"How are you?" He asked as he wrapped his arms around me and buried his face in my neck.

"I'm fine."

"I love you", he sighed happily.

"I love you too", I replied and looked at the reflection of the two of us.

His dyed red hair fell slightly over my neck and he had his usual snapback on. I did not deserve him at all. He's too good for me. He's my everything. And I'm gonna leave him, hurt him. Shape his life forever. And then tears started to roll down my cheeks.

"Ty why are you crying?" He asked confused. "Don't cry, angel."

I couldn't say anything, so I just cried. Cried and cried and cried.

"Come here", he said and pulled me into a tight hug. I tried to breathe slowly, feeling his scent filling my nose. My legs turned to jelly. I loved him so much. "It's fine, angel. Just breathe with me."

And there we stood for a while, in Josh's bathroom, just simply breathing together.
