Too Good To Be True: A Tyler Hoechlin Love Story

Chapter 13: Le' Grandma Suite

"I could have sworn that was my mother talking through her." Tyler put his hand to his head.

"Tyler I don't think that could have happened. There had to be some explanation." I explained.

"Explanation? Who else in the world do you know calls me TyTy? Katherine? No. Jeff? No? Posey? No. No one! That was the only person who called me that!"

"Okay maybe you do have a point-"

"It isn't a point, it is my mother!"

"How come you never told me about them?" I mentioned.

"Told you about what?" His voice became soft.

"About your bother and mother. How come you or Katherine never told me?" I questioned him.

"It isn't something we like to talk about." Tyler brushed it off.

"I deserve to know these things though. We could have talked about it. I am here for you."

"I know, I know. I get that, but you wouldn't understand." Tyler grimaced.

"How do you know that Tyler?" I questioned getting angry.

"Know what?" He played dumb.

"Know that I wouldn't understand. Tyler you aren't the only one who gets there fair game of hurt around here- everyone has their share! I am sorry that happened to you, but my father died. My best friend backstabbed me and left me to be heartbroken. I went to a therapist for weeks back in Flordia. I couldn't talk to anyone because my brother lives half away around the world shooting for his dreams. I had no one to talk to." I cried.

"I am sorry. I didn't know." He came to embrace me.

"Don't." I put my hand out.

"Alyce, come on don't be like that."

"I never told you because I didn't want to burden you. I didn't want you to feel obligated to help me. But your reasoning, I can't believe you! Your reasoning. 'You wouldn't understand.' Well Tyler, maybe if you wouldn't judge me first then I would understand." I walked away.

"Come on." He pulled me back to him.

"That isn't even the worst part, Tyler. I would always ask you- when do I get to meet your parents? When do I get to go to your house? You met my Mom. You only met my Mom, because my father is dead. But you lied to me Tyler, this whole time. Both you and Katherine lied. I tell you everything. I opened up to you and Katherine like a book. I trusted y'all. Do you not trust me back? Why couldn't you tell me? Did you really think I wouldn't understand? Am I that awful of a person?" My voice broke.

"No of course not. It is just that-"

"No excuses Tyler, I can't do this anymore. I am going to the condo, I am going pack up my stuff, say goodbye to Paige and Sam, and I am leaving. And don't follow me" My words echoed in the back of my head as I ran off.

"Wait Ally, you didn't let me finish!" Tyler screamed running after me. My tears pouring down my face now. Both Katherine and Tyler lied to me.

They lied for three months.

******************

I finished packing up all of my stuff, and decided to call Sam and Paige rather than see them. it would just be to hard to see them after what happened. They need there time to mourn. It is better this way. I told them we will see each other again some day. I am just not sure when.

I picked up my phone, and dialed a number I haven't ever called.

"Hello?" The voice answered.

"Chris?" I tried my best to sound strong.
