Wednesday Afternoon

Josh

I woke up in my bed seeing my mom and dad staring down at me. I was so confused as to how I got home. Suddenly, the events from earlier flooded back. I needed to go talk to Tyler.

I jumped up from my bed and pushed past my parents who kept telling me to lay down seeing that I just passed out at school after having an anxiety attack. I ignored them because i felt fine. Their voices were nothing but nameless sounds as I grabbed my shoes and put them on. I raced down the stairs and out of the door.

Once I was outside I took a breath of fresh air and calmed down releasing the breath I didn't know I was holding. I looked around. Traffic was still there and the sounds of it resonated with me. I was okay.

I walked to the Joseph's ice cream parlor and put in earbuds to kill the never ending nerves I felt. As I walked up to the door I felt sick. As if I was going to throw up. I swallowed the feeling and pushed the door open to see Tyler leaning on the counter flipping through a music catalog. As i walked closer to him, my body started to tremble.

"T-Tyler...im s-so sorry." I looked at him as a lump formed in my throat.

"Sure you are Joshua." There goes my name again. I felt a a shot go through my chest. He didn't bother to even look at me. He just kept his eyes glued to the pages as he flipped through them.

"D-debby s-she kissed me...I didn't k-kiss her." I felt light headed and grabbed ahold of my head. I couldn't faint not here, not now. Not while I was trying to get tyler back. Tyler finally looked up at me, analyzing my whole face.

"Josh are you okay? You look really pale." I nodded and gripped onto the counter for support.

"Ty..tyler I didn't want to kiss her..." My body swayed and my eyes slipped shut. I became too weak to hold myself up anymore and felt myself fall. This time though I didnt hit the floor. I hit something soft almost. I felt someone wrap their arms around me but my sight was too blurry to see just who it was.

Tyler

Josh swayed as his eyes closed, his face colorless.

"Josh?" I started to move from behind the counter to him slowly. I suddenly saw his body completely drop almost in slow motion as i went to catch him in my arms.

"Josh??" I said his name a little louder, watching as his eyes fluttered open and connected with mine. Tears built up in his eyes and he blinked making two opposing rivulets of desperation begin to flow down his face. His brows furrowed slightly as he looked at me. His hand reached out for my and he intertwined our fingers. He let out a sigh of relief as his eyes slowly closed.

"Tyler," he breathed out. My vision became distorted with tears I didn't know i had. I blinked and watched my tears fall onto his forehead, immediately making his eyes open again.

"Are you crying?" His voice was soft but impaired. I nodded my head and gave a weak laugh at my own emotions. He brought his other hand up and wiped away my tears. I put my hand on top of his and breathed out.

"Ty," he started. "She... she forced me to kiss her. She had me pinned against the lockers." He began breathing harder as more tears formed.
"I-I don't like her. At all...and maybe at one point i did...but being with you these past few days just really brought something out of me, Ty. Something i've never felt before...m-myself." I nodded my head not knowing what to say, instead just getting lost in his eyes. I sniffed back tears before bending down and capturing him in a tear stained kiss. My grip on his hands tightened as i kissed him with all the love i could give. I didn't want to let go until we both saw the light.

I pulled aways from the kiss and rested my nose against his, our breath hitting each other. I rubbed my nosed slightly against his and watched his eyes slip shut as he finally relaxed his whole body. I graced my lips ever so lightly against his skin until they touched his ear.

"Im sorry for not letting you explain earlier." He whole body shuddered under the warmth of my breath. Watching the affect i had on him went right to my crotch.

"I-It's okay..." His cheeks flushed pink as he searched for words to say.

"But... Did you have to k-kiss Brendon like that?" Worry crossed his face. I squeezed his hand and then kissed it.

"I asked him to. He's in theater with me. It was just acting. Sorry about that too." I gave him a quick peck on the nose and he smiled in relief that this was finally over.

"Its okay... So y-you forgive me?" He stared into my eyes, the look only got me more hot and bothered. I leaned down and locked our lips together. I lightly tugged on his bottom lip with my teeth, then releasing it, letting our lips brush against each other.

"Of course i forgive you" I whispered. He brought his lips back to mine and grazed his tongue lightly over my lips begging for entrance which I quickly gave. He dominated my mouth with his. This only made my little problem become a bigger one as Josh finally noticed as he felt something on his back. He pulled away and looked at me.

"Uh Tyler... I think you might have a little problem there." My cheeks heated up and radiated my embarrassment while Josh let out a chuckle. I looked away from him only to have him grab my neck and kiss my cheek while smiling widely at me. I rested my forehead on his and breathed out a small laugh.

"Tyler? What the Hell are you doing with that Dun boy?" My head shot up to meet the gaze of my very unhappy mother.
