The Future Of Tyler Summers [COMING SOON]

Tyler has a theory

       I have an annoying theory actually, Tyler summers thinks to himself, because nerdy Tyler always has a lot of thinking to do during his free time.

       His 'precious' free time normally consists of four small things: reading small urban novels, (typically The Fault In Our Stars, Looking For Alaska, and other John Green books), crying over fictional characters, surfing the media, or simply grieving from the tragic loss of his family.

       I should probably mention that his family only died two years ago, when he was of fourteen years of age. Ever since, he hasn't really been feeling his normal self, and unfortunately he doesn't even know what 'normal' is anymore. The only 'normal' thing that Tyler considers to be 'normal' is drinking hot chocolate whilst reading cute books.

       Some would consider Tyler "Queer" or even an "outcast", but in all honesty, Tyler isn't quite sure what to label himself as:

1. He's of average height, so he likes to label himself as "Average".

2. But then again, Tyler has freckles and brown short hair, so sometimes he thinks of himself as "ugly". 

3. His glasses often make people perceive him as "nerdy", and his fabulous fandoms online make him seem "geeky".

4. Tyler is very very "shy". So shy, that often when Tyler sees a crowd of jocks coming, (or just any group of people larger than four), he immediately hides behind the nearest locker or door.

5. Tyler loves the number "four" and adores the winter, especially a winter's afternoon, so some would even call him "weird".

       But much due to Tyler's happiness, it's the typical kind of winter's afternoon, where Tyler endlessly sits on his rooftop, admiring all the delicious Christmas lights and music. From the perch he sits on, he can see civilians humble around in animosity, searching for the neatest toy shop. It's right here, above all the fake people, that Tyler feels alive.

       This only brings Tyler to question his theory even more though.

       The thing about relationships, is that you are either going to break up or get married. And honestly, I don't know which one scares me more, Tyler thinks to himself. Tyler likes talking and thinking to himself, and because of this, he endlessly likes to jot down his thoughts and theories in his notebook.

       But with every notebook, comes a tragic memory.......

       And that happens to be the car accident, and because of this, Tyler has been living all by himself in Georgia. His house is empty (which is paid for by the government), and without any company, Tyler often feels subjected to isolation and loneliness. All he really wants, is someone to cuddle at night, someone who will always have his back, someone who will unconditionally love him, no matter what.

       I-Is that.....too much to ask for? He ponders.

       And sometimes, Tyler is certain that he talks in his sleep. And unless the walls are paper thin, Mrs Maybelle next door constantly complains about his sleep talking. And sometimes, even Tyler seems to think he's going crazy. But perhaps that's what loneliness does to you, perhaps the isolation slowly drives you insane, until the point where you eventually break.
