Alone

※Chapter 8※

Troye's POV

I can't believe I just said that. I met Tyler a little over a week ago and he knows more about me than I'd like for anyone to know.

Do I dare tell him about Adam?

No. No Troye.

You shouldn't drag Tyler into this.

Tyler interrupts my thoughts with saying "do you want to go for a walk and talk? Do you want to stay in the car? What do you want to do?" And he places his hand on my knee.

I don't move or try to remove it, I like the feeling of warmth I get when Tyler touches me.

I lift up my head for the first time since we parked realizing where we are, we are at a park Adam and I used to go to regularly, I think back to all the picnic's we had next to the stream, we had a certain tree we always sat at. I ask Tyler if he minds if I show him something, he nod's agreeing.

We get out and begin walking, I break the bone chilling silence by saying "Tylah" he looks at me and sees the hurt in my eyes but doesn't say anything. "I used to come here allot about a year ago, with this guy" Tyler looks at me confused he then says "so were you guy's like close friends, or?" I then smile slightly at Tyler trying not to call me gay, "he was my boyfriend" with no surprise in Tyler's voice he says "okay.. may I ask what happened there?" I nod sitting down at the old tree Adam and I used to sit at. after a few moments of silence I say "This was Adam and I's tree, we would come here and sit and talk, have picnics, we loved this place."  Tyler looks at me noticing my eyes are glossy, I continue telling him about Adam, all the great memories we had, I continue to Tell him about how Adam would come home Drunk, How he was abusive when he had been drinking, and about the night it all fell apart. 

after a few hours of talking Tyler knew more about me than my own family, he knew how I truly felt and what I wanted for my life.
