I have been stressing about this moment all week. It's the part of the day where I can make a video with Tyler. The Tyler Oakley. So many people would die just to be in the same room as him, and here I am about to make a video with him. All the annoying questions keep flooding my head. What if I make a fool out of myself? What if he thinks I'm stupid? What if I say something I'm not supposed to?" So many things could go wrong.
I walk through the door in awe. I am now in Tylers colorful filming room. I have never fully appreciated his room, but now that I am actually here, I can see just how beautiful the vibrant colors are. We are just about to film a video, our first collab together. Tyler. I just coundn't believe it. Finally, I can actually film with Tyler. Finally. I am only here for a few weeks, but I'm going to enjoy my time in Los Angeles. I sit down on the couch and I find Tyler fiddling with the camera. He gives me a hello with his high voice, then keeps working on the camera. When he's done, he sits down next to me, smiles, and we are ready to begin.
"Ready Troye?" Tyler asks.
"Yup. Whenever you want to start." Tyler chuckles and starts to count down.
"Ok 3... 2... 1. Why hello everyone my name is Tyler Oakley! And I am here with..."
"Troye Sivan!" I chime in.
And that... is where Troyler begins.
Tyler starts off the video by explaining why we are doing the boyfriend tag and I just smile. I know that he always does the talking for a while in the beginning of his videos, so I wait for my cue.
"So Troye explain what the boyfiend tag is for the people" Tyler says sweetly. Oh crap. What is the boyfriend tag again?
"Uh I think it's questions that you are supposed to ask your boyfriend?" I squeak out.
"I don't think that's what it is." Tyler says with a laugh. "I think its questions we are supposed to answer as boyfriends together. So that the people can know more about our releationship." He says humorously and makes a popping sound while ending the p.
"Right" is all I manage to say.
"If this were a releationship" He says with a smirk.
"If" I say with a smile.
The rest of the video goes by pretty quickly. We answer some random question, then its over. I am a little dissapointed about how fast our time goes by. Tyler will have to leave any moment now. Is this all the time I get with him?
"Hey Troye, I'm sorry but I really have to head out. I have to do this speech for the Trevor Project and I need to prepare for it. I won't be back for a little while." Tyler says.
"Ya I understand. I'll just head back to the hotel room then." I say with a frown.
"Ok." Tyler says. As I begin to walk out of his living room, Tyler stops me. He comes up next to me and looks into my eyes. Is this it? Is something going to happen? I blush profusely as he looks into my eyes.
"Hey Troye I really am sorry I have to leave. Do you want to hang out tomorrow maybe?" Tyler says with hopeful eyes.
Oh shit... I was going to hang out with Connor tomorrow.
"Uh ya maybe... I was going to hang out with Connor though tomorrow" Is all I can manage saying. I can see the hope drain out of Tyler. I know that Tyler really does feel bad for leaving so arubtly... maybe I can skip seeing Connor? But I haven't seen Connor since he came out and I wanted to talk to him too...
"Oh I understand. You haven't seen Connor in a while." Tyler says morosely while nodding. What do I say to that?
"Maybe I can see you tomorrow night then? There must be some really good restraunts in Los Angeles right?" I ask with a smile and Tylers face lights up with delight.
"Yeah that would be amazing! I know this amazing place thats pretty close and has really good chicken and drinks and you could meet at my house then I could drive us there and it will be so much fun-" I cut him off.
"Tyler don't you have a speech to prepare for?" I ask with a smirk. Now its his turn to blush profusley.
"Oh ya... oops. Well it was nice fiming and talking to you Troye" He says.
"Ok good luck with your speech. Bye!" And with that, I'm out the door. Its a short walk to the hotel but I savor every moment outside. It is very different than Perth; there are so many people going about their buisness. There are the angry ones who can't stop yelling on their phones, the mothers with children, teenagers with their friends, street preformers, the list goes on and on. I walk quickly by a group of girls about my age who look at me and giggle. One of them comes up to me, says her name is Sarah, gives me her number, and runs away. Yep this sure is different than Perth.
I arrive at the hotel and walk up to my room. It is only seven oclock and since I have nothing else to do, I order room service. I only have to stay in the hotel tonight because Tyler needs to focus on his speech for tomorrow morning. I can stay at Tylers for the other nights while I am in LA but I know he needs to focus for now. I order a small dinner and it comes up within minuites.
Now guess who just happens to work at this particuar hotel and just happens to be the one who brings up my food? Sarah, the girl I met earlier today.
"Oh hello again." She says while smiling. "I have your food right here and you just want that on your tab?"
"Uh ya." I say quickly. Right as I am about to say goodbye and shut the door, she buts in.
"So... I mean I think you are really cute and nice and stuff... would you like to go out sometime?" Sarah asks. Even if I was straight, why would I go out with her? I just met her! I know nothing about her!
"Oh um no..." I say and she frowns.
"Why not?" She asks. Will this girl let it go? What is her issue?
"Ummm because I'm gay" Is all I say and shut the door. Nice job Troye. What a great way to end a conversation. I eat my dinner and decide I have had enough for one day. I shower and get ready for bed. Who cares that it is only 9:45? And with that my eyes close and I fall asleep.
