Brad's point of view
I know something is wrong with Tyler. She never looks up at the ceiling like that. I got out of bed and went back to her room. She was sitting in a corner, legs pulled up to her chest.
"Tyler? What's wrong?" I asked. She shook her head.
"Dad....." she kept mumbling. I got Mike and Chaz, and they ran to her and held her. She kept shaking and crying.
"Nothing is helping." I heard Mike whisper to Chester.
"Let me see her." Mike handed me Tyler.
"Ty. Tyler, look at me. What's wrong?" she looked into my eyes and said,
"I don't want him to find me, Brad. Gage can't find me," she said through the tears.
"Shh, he's not going to find you here," I whispered. Mike and Chester left, and I brought Tyler up on the roof.
"Why do you think that Gage is going to find you?"
"He always does. I was moved to several foster cares and orphanages, and Gage always found his way to me." what she said reminded me of what happened with Chester and one of his former bandmates in Grey Daze, Sean.
"Who?" I didn't know I said that out loud.
"Oh. Sean, he is a man that found Chester wherever he went."
"Oh." she leaned into me more.
"Tyler, even if he finds you, he wouldn't get you. We will protect you." she looked up at the stars. She got up and moved to the tree.
"What are you doing?"
"I usually sit up here when you're not around. Kind of reminds me of how I met you guys. Brad... I have something to tell you, but I don't want to make things awkward." Tyler looked at me from the shadows of the trees, I moved closer to her still on the roof.
"You know you can tell me anything, love. I won't judge you." I smile at her.
"I... I like you, a lot. Like. More than I should. I'm sorry." she hid her face in her hands. I reach over and hold my hand out, she takes it and moves back to the roof.
"Tyler, listen to me please. Your feelings are valid. No need to be embarrassed. If it helps, I like you too." I kissed her head as she was hiding her face. She made a whimpering noise and leaned into me. I held her close and kissed her head again.
