• Tyler's POV •

Josh is hugging tyler. Tyler shyly hugs josh back. This wasn't supposed to happen. Tyler wasn't supposed to confess, the feelings were supposed to be temporary, yet here we are. Tyler regrets telling josh about his feelings.

Tyler let's go of josh, he can't help but start pulling on his hair. Josh frowns looking at tyler. "Don't pull on your hair.. you'll damage your nice hair.." josh says, grabbing Tyler's hands into his own. "S-sorry..." Tyler mumbles quietly, looking at the ground ashamed.

• Josh's POV •

Josh is holding Tyler's hands in his own, rubbing Ty's knuckles lightly with his thumbs. "You have nothing to apologize for Ty." Josh says calmly. "i can tell that you're scared and stressed. I promise to never hurt you tyler." Josh says. Tyler nods a bit. "Its getting late, you should go to bed." Josh says looking at the smaller boy. "Can you stay over..? I don't want to be alone.." tyler mumbles quietly. "Sure, but i have to go get some stuff from my apartment if that's okay?" Josh says. Tyler nods once again. "I'll get myself an Uber and grab my stuff and come back, does that sound okay?" Josh asks. "yeah.." tyler mumbles quietly.

"You should take a warm shower or bath, those always help me calm down." Josh says. "okay.." tyler mumbles sleepily. Josh helps tyler up and they go to the bathroom. He fills up the bathtub with warm water. "Alright, your bath is ready, I'll go now since my Uber is here. I'll be back in about half an hour." Josh says and looks at tyler. Tyler nods and starts pulling his hoodie off.

• Tyler's POV•

Josh leaves and tyler finishes getting undressed. He gets in the bath and takes a deep breath, sighing. This is what tyler was longing for after all, someone who would care about him, who would look after him. It'll be okay. Tyler shuts his eyes and let's his mind wander.

• Josh's POV •

Josh gets back, he opens the front door and gets inside, locking it behind him. He walks to the bedroom and puts his bag down. "Tyler?" Josh calls out, but no one replies. "Ty are you still in the bath?" Josh yells out slightly louder. "TYLER!?" Josh is starting to get worried. He knocks on the bathroom door loudly. "Tyler are you in there?" Josh is sounding desperate. He hears some water splashing around. "h-huh..?" He hears a faint voice from the bathroom. "Are you okay ty..?" Josh asks worriedly. "y-yeah.. i accidentally fell asleep.. sorry.." Tyler's faint voice replies. "you should get out of the bath ty.. i don't want you to drown.." josh says.

• Tyler's POV •

Tyler gets out of the bath and drains it. He grabs a towel and dries himself off. He left some clothes in the dryer and so he grabs them and puts them on, before getting out of the bathroom. "gosh i was so worried about you.." josh says standing in the bedroom looking at tyler. "I'm sorry.. i didn't mean to fall asleep... Nor worry you.." tyler mumbles ashamed. "It's okay, don't worry, I'm just glad that you're okay." Josh says and hugs tyler.

Tyler blushes and hugs josh back. "Are you feeling any better..?" Josh asks. "Yeah.. I'm just sleepy.." tyler says and looks up at the taller boy. "it's late, we should go to bed." Josh replies. Tyler nods.

Josh let's go of tyler and tyler gets into bed, getting under the covers. "I'll go change in the bathroom" josh says, tyler nods and lays down.

Josh comes back and gets into bed with tyler. Tyler is shivering lightly. "Can I cuddle you..?" Josh asks blushing lightly. Tyler nods once again, he's too sleepy to speak.

Tyler feels a pair of strong arms embrace him and he instantly feels safer, he lets out a quiet sigh of relief. "Warm..." He mumbles inaudibly.

• Josh's POV •

Josh hears tyler mumble something, he's not sure if tyler said warm or warn, probably warm. Josh smiles to himself and blushes as well, he's finally cuddling his crush, and this time his crush actually likes him back, not only for the sex.

Josh falls asleep with tyler in his arms, it is the best feeling ever.

Next day..

Josh wakes up to tylers alarm, and so does tyler. He groans in frustration until he realizes that tyler is next to him. He looks at tyler and blushes lightly, smiling at him sleepily. "Morning.." josh mumbles in his morning voice. "Morning..." Tyler mumbles sleepily. "Are you going to work today..?" Josh asks tyler, tyler nods. Josh nods as well.

(A/n: i know this is super late and i know it's short, I'm so sorry, my depression was just like "nope." And so i have tried to get the motivation back)
