Toby's POV 

I woke up in a cold sweat the guilt was finally getting to me I lied to Jack about what really happened. I didn't fall down the hill I was pushed by Hoodie. I relaxed when I realized  I was sleeping right on top of Jack I was surprised so surprised I fell off the bed. There was a loud thud. Jack woke up "Toby: are you okay?" he asked sitting up. It was only now when I realized he wasn't wearing his mask so I was staring him straight in the face. He picked me up off of the floor placing me next to him. I couldn't help but tic nervously. "Toby are you okay you're ticcing?"" he asked. "I'm fine," I replied cuddling in his arms. "Cause I can leave if you want me to," Jack told me quietly. "No you're fine I'm usually scared all alone in this room," I said sitting his lap closing my eyes. "can you stop?" he asked. "Stop what?" I asked. "Being so god damn cute!" he exclaimed hugging me while I was in his lap.  I blushed "Am I really that cute?". He nodded in reply. I felt like I was going to explode I've never really been called cute before. I was blushing like crazy my face a pure shade of pink. Jack noticed it and kissed my forehead "Cute I tell you!". I giggled. 

-time skip to morning-

Once again i woke up in Jack's caring strong arms. I got up stretching when I noticed Jack's mask on my dresser I picked up trying it on. Of course it was over sized. I didn't notice Jack was already awake and that he had lightly chuckled. Then he got up and walked up to me but I hid behind the mask. He lifted up the mask revealing my face and he smiled. I gave him a smile back as I lifted up my arms demanding to  be picked up.he picked me up putting me on his shoulders.I put my head on top of him handing him his mask. He handed it back telling me to hold on to it. I smiled putting the on my head.  He opened the door walking out into the living room where we ran into Hoodie. "Oh hey Jack, Toby," he said my name ever so coldly. I hid behind Jack scared obviously while he wasn't even paying attention. "Okay goodbye," Jack said quickly running out the door. I was hanging on for dear life "Slow down!". He slowed down walking at a steady. "What was that about?" I ask as he took me  off of his shoulders. He let out a sigh  looking out at the lake, river, what ever that the cliff surrounded the house. He sat off the edge I sat next to him. "Talk to me Jack?" I said sitting next to him. "I thought I could face him but I can't ," he said. "It's okay its not like he's you're ex," Jack gave me a look as I said that. "Oh my god seriously because I was hoping that you were available," I replied my self esteem dropping. He gave me a look again accept it was in surprise, Jack continued to smile pulling me close to him. "I am speechless Toby just speechless,". After he kissed my forehead. I tackled him hugging him.  He giggled sitting up "So wanna go swimming?". I nodded excitedly as we both got up. "Well lets go!" he said grabbing my hand.

 We ran down the hill when I had stopped because I had been pushed down. "Toby?" Jack asked stopping. I looked down at my feet. "Toby are you okay?" he continued to ask. I snapped out of it. "What was that look?" Jack asked walking up to me. "Are you scared  of something?" he asked on. This was my chance to come clean about what really happened before this gets out of hand. I tried speaking but that's the part I hate about being hurt you can't speak and you feel like you're going to fall, and I did. I fell to my knees just trying to speak. "Toby!" Jack said even more alert of what was going on. He knelt down next to me pulling me into his arms. "Toby, you can talk to me," he said holding me close. "I'm sorry," I manged to get out letting the tears stroll along my face. I could tell he didn't know how to respond he just continued to hug me. i broke the hug wiping the tears off my face. "I'm sorry you have to see me like this," I said curling up into a ball. "you should probably just get back together with Hoodie before something bad happens," I said getting up walking back up the hill with a limp. Yesterday practically almost killed me but I'll manage. "Toby at least let me help you back up the hill?" Jack asked following me. "I'm fine," i mumbled. Truth was I wasn't fine I'm dying on the inside and no one can see but Jack?
