His Goal ❗️JOSHLER

7

1 month later
Over the next month josh and Tyler rekindled their bond and typically stuck together.
Tyler had still been working on his weight and been making amazing progress. He had lost 75 pounds leaving him just 100 pounds away from his goal.
Josh had been a huge help, encouraging Tyler and going on two mile long runs every morning. He even decided to go on the same diet as Tyler seeing as he spent most of his time around him.
He felt bad eating Tyler's favorite foods while the boy was stuck eating healthy foods so he gave it up so that he didn't feel alone.
Tyler was happy with their arrangement that they currently had set up. Josh stayed with him a lot mainly in the guest room except the nights Tyler needed him.
Those nights he would sleep in Tyler's room to hold him as he slept.
The man never denied his love for the other because it was true. He was absolutely smitten.
Today he had woke up in the guest room with Tyler curled up close to him.
He chuckled softly and kissed Tyler's head before slipping out of the bed, covering Tyler's body with the blanket before walking out of the room.
He walked downstairs and walked to the kitchen going through the fridge to find something to make or him and Tyler.
He hummed and pulled a few things out setting them on the counter.
He shut the fridge and pulled out the pans he needed to start making the two of them breakfast,  setting them on the stove.
He turned on the burners and hummed as he started cooking.
It didn't take long before he felt two arms wrap around his shoulders.
"Sorry I climbed in your bed this morning..had a nightmare." Tyler said softly.
Josh smiled and turned around cupping Tyler's cheeks in his hands.
"What did i say about apologizing for climbing into bed with me?" He asked softly.
Tyler looked up at him and huffed softly.
"Not to cause you like waking up to me in your arms." He said.
Josh hummed and nodded.
"Exactly now go sit I'm gonna make breakfast and after we eat you can help with dishes then we can go on our jog before we go to the gym." He said softly.
Tyler nodded before walking over to the island climbing up into his stool.
"Do you have anything to do today?" Tyler asked.
Josh hummed softly and nodded.
"I do. After we leave the gym we have a few hours to hang out but then I have work at 3 and I don't get off until 10:30 tonight." He said and started putting his and Tyler's food on plates. 
"Okay. Are you coming back here tonight?" Tyler asked.
Josh shrugged and walked over giving Tyler his plate.
"I'll text and see if you're still up and if you are then yes. If you don't respond though I'll be here in the morning." Josh said.
Tyler nodded and smiled grabbing his fork taking a bite of his food.
"Have you weighed lately?" Josh asked and sat across from Tyler.
Tyler smiled happily and nodded.
"75 pounds down josh! I'm getting there faster and faster!" He said excitedly.
Josh smiled happily and nodded.
"See! I told you! I'm so proud of you ty!" He said and reached over grabbing his hand.
Tyler smiled happily and held josh's hand.
"I'm proud of myself. I didn't think I could do it before but with you and Jenna i am. I'm gonna be better soon." He said and teared up.
Josh got up and walked over to the other side of the island. He wrapped his arms around Tyler hugging him tightly.
"I'm so proud of you baby boy. So proud. I knew you could do it and I'm so so proud of you. You look so amazing now and you look so much healthier. I wish it didn't have to go as far as it did but look at you. I'm so proud of you." He said.
Tyler sobbed softly and held onto josh tightly.
"It was my fault. It took me losing you to realize how unhealthy i was and how bad it was effecting you. I'm so sorry i was a burden for so long." He said.
Josh shook his head and rubbed Tyler's back gently.
"You weren't a burden at all it just hurt me to see you hurting so much. I think you're beautiful inside and out Tyler but I just wanted you to feel better about yourself and feel good physically. And me I'm weak at the knees for you so I would give in and i had to get you to realize how much you needed it. After i left i realized the mistake i made in being so harsh. I love you Tyler and that's why I'm waiting for you to reach that goal is so I can have my Tyler back healthy and happy. That's all i wanted for you baby." He said softly.
Tyler sniffed and pulled back looking at josh as he wiped his tears away.
"Ya mean that..?" He asked softly.
Josh cupped his cheek and nodded kissing his head.
"I mean it. I'll wait forever my love." He said softly.
Tyler nodded and pulled josh to him connecting their lips in a passion filled kiss.
Josh hummed and pulled Tyler closer kissing him lovingly before pulling back, resting his forehead against Tyler's.
Tyler bit his bottom lip and smiled softly keeping his eyes closed.
"I don't wanna make you wait anymore. I can do this even when I'm with you. Having you here to motivate me is the reason I'm doing this and pushing myself more each and every day to be my best. I'm doing it cause you always look so proud of how far I've come and it makes me feel amazing. I feel so good about myself when i see how proud you are." He said.
Josh smiled and held Tyler close.
"It's cause I am proud of you baby's I'm so damn proud of you." He said and rubbed his cheek before connecting his lips to Tyler's again.
It went unspoken that they were together again because they knew from the moment Tyler said he wasn't making josh wait any longer. Tyler was josh's again and they couldn't be happier.
