Josh sat in corner of his room, with a blank expression upon his face.
He had no thoughts inside, apart from one, which he tried to brush off, but he couldn't.

He had not seen Tyler in 28 days. He had counted. He had not spoken to him in 27 and a half.

Josh thought to himself, "If I had acted differently, would I still see him everyday?"

twenty one pilots had not posted any form of update in 25 days. It was Josh who had posted. No performances, no interviews. No fans had seen either of them.

Although, Josh's family had not seen Josh in 23 days. He tended to spend his days in bed, pondering yet again about his actions 28 days ago.

Josh was still shaken up about it all, the fight was pretty bad. Tyler was pretty bad. Josh struggled everyday since.

He debated whether or not to call Tyler, "It could make it better, it could make it worse" he said, mumbling to himself.

Would he feel any better about it?
Would they be able to talk and see each other again?

The answer is no, no to both questions. Tyler wouldn't forgive him, not yet.

It's been 21 days since Josh last got a full nights sleep. He just didn't see the point.

Nothing interested Josh anymore, not even drumming. He didn't want to drum.

Josh deleted the twenty one pilots Facebook page 20 days ago, they weren't going to perform again.

He then deleted the twitter page, 19 days ago, the hashtag '#wherehavetwentyonepilotsgone' was trending almost immediately afterwards.

15 days ago, Josh was sent a letter from a fan, it said that they missed him and Tyler, and that they wanted them back.

Josh didn't care. He wanted Tyler back, but he had no intention of performing. He wasn't in the right frame of mind. Without Tyler, he couldn't function.

Josh called Tyler. It went straight to voicemail. Josh listened to Tyler's voice that said "Hi! This is Tyler Joseph, the man himself! Sorry but I couldn't get to my phone, I was too slow! Leave a message and I shall call you back when I can! Stay alive!"

Stay alive.

Stay. Alive.

Josh chuckled, "Stay alive, funny."
