larry gulped and realized how dry his throat was and how tired he was. he had sat in the same spot for an hour straight, his eyes glued to the same spot. all hope was lost as he saw the little "do not disturb" icon near tanners profile picture turned into the offline one.

larry blinked, leaned back, and let the tears spill.

"god, what have i done" he sputtered out in between sobs. the boy was furiously trying to wipe his everlasting tears away and calm his breathing, but his little episode would not end.

he looked around the room as choked sobs wracked his body. the room was becoming distorted and even the sounds of the fan whirring were as loud as a concert.

he stood up and pushed his chair out of the way, trying to get to his bed. but to no ones surprise, he took two steps and fell forward and let the darkness consume him.

. . .

larry woke up in the same spot where he passed out. at first he was a bit disoriented, but no where near as severe as before.

he rubbed his eyes and carefully stood up to check the time. 8:43 am.

he was knocked out for quite a while. he scrambled to his desk and looked at his already lit up monitor. tanner was online, thankfully. but still no message from him. not even in imessage.

larry

hey

can we talk?

please???

:/

--

larry didn't expect to see a response from tanner. and sure enough, the other didn't type anything back.

until a few hours later. larry was laying on his bed on his phone with their dms still open on his desktop.

once he heard the familiar ping from the monitor, larry shot up and lunged over to his desk.

dude

i just

don't understand

like why you would even attempt to joke about something like that

larry

im sorry

im so sorry

it was a horrible thing to do

and even though some of it was true

it wasn't okay for me to say

BigT

just don't talk to me for a bit

--

oh wow.

larry felt a pang in his heart. he really did love tanner, and to see his friendship crumble over something that could have been prevented really hurt. to say the least.

the rest of the day, larry let it all out. he was messily crying and mumbling things to himself.

. . .

and so almost a whole week went by. they both tried to cover everything up for when they did the podcast and streamed together, but outside of that they didn't talk.

larry wished they could just be friends again. real friends, not just an act.

as larry was scrolling on twitter, he saw a post notification from tanner. he clicked on it and a picture of tanner and iris was displayed on the screen with the caption "so maybe i do get bitches"

larry knew this was it. there was no going back.

the two lovers were happy and the boy just had to accept that.

even though he didn't want it to end like this, there was nothing he could do.

but life isn't fair, right?
