Tyler screamed and put his blindfold on. They were making him go to group therapy. He grabbed Josh's arm for support so he didn't run into anything. Normally Brendon would guide him there, but he was busy with some other kid. Josh sat him down in the group therapy room and sat in the chair next to his. The, in came Brendon. "Okay, lets start!" He clasped his hands together and sat down, smiling. "Josh, why don't you start?" Josh shrugged and Brendon spoke again. "How are you doing? Are you fine with your rooming arrangement?" Josh just shrugged. "Yeah. I'm fine with my room." He didn't answer the first question. "Alright, great. Tyler, what about you?" Tyler didn't respond for a minute, then just shrugged. "The glowing eyes don't like him..I mean, I guess he's fine but I don't want the glowing eyes to leave.." Tyler spoke quietly and Brendon sighed."Lets move on." He looked around the room before his eyes landed on someone. "Alright, Patrick, your turn." He gestured to a guy with orange-ish hair and a fedora looking around the room wondrously. "Pat!" Someone next to him yelled. Patrick's head snapped forwards. "Oh, uh, I'm fine! Ya know!" He smiled brightly. "Brendon smiled and nodded. "Ryan, how about you?" He looked to another guy, who looked the same age as Brendon. Brendon gave him a look of respect and something more. Ryan didn't smile, he just shrugged. "I guess I'm fine. Still want to die." He looked down. Brendon frowned. "You're not going to." he shook his head. "I know. I can't with you always watching me like a 12 year old with a crush!" he snapped. Brendon looked around the room, embarrassed. "Okay, uh, Gerard?" He looked at a boy with long black hair and pale skin. Gerard shook his head and Brendon sighed. "Still not talking?" He shook his head again. Brendon continued around the circle, asking people questions. Eventually, group therapy was over and lunch began. Tyler was walking to his room, using a wall as support, until someone grabbed him. He yelped out of surprise. "Who's touching me??" He reached out and touched their face, then hair. He heard a small laugh and sighed. "Oh. Hey, Josh.' Josh smiled at Tyler, even though he couldnt see it. "Hey, Tyler.You wanna come to lunch with me?" Tyler shook his head but Josh didnt take no for an answer and began pulling Tyler to the cafeteria. Tyler groaned and followed him, realizing he had no choice. Josh got both of them food and sat them down at an empty table. Tyler poked at his food, while Josh ate his. "You should eat." Josh pushed his tray aside when he finished. Tyler shook his head and pushed his tray away. Josh shrugged. "Can you take the blindfold off? I've been dying to see your face. Don't you wanna see mine?" Josh asked, reaching forwards a bit. Tyler shook his head, but Josh lifted the blindfold off his face anyways.Tyler's eyes widened, and he began reaching for the blind fold before he stopped and looked at Josh. He was staring at Tyler. He looked like he had just seen the most beautiful thing ever. Tyler tilted his head and took in Josh's face. It took a few minutes, but people began realizing Tyler had taken the blindfold off and ran over to the table. "Hey, Tyler! Tyler can you see me??" Patrick was the first to come to the table. Tyler ignored him and continues staring at Josh. "Do you like my fedora??" Tyler finally looked at Patrick, then grabbed the fedora from his head and put it on himself, pushing it as far over his eyes as possible when he saw others were coming. Patrick took the fedora back and Tyler grabbed his blindfold, got up, and ran back to his room. Josh of course followed him. Once they were in the room, he shut the door and turned of the light, then ran over to Tyler who was curled up on his bed. "Hey, Tyler, are you okay?" Tyler shook his head. "Josh, what do I look like?" Tyler lied on his back and looked at Josh. "I can't explain-look in the mirror." Tyler shook his head, but fuck, all of a sudden he was in front of a mirror, staring at himself. He shook his head and looked at Josh. "I'm ugly." He began to cry, hating that everyone had seen his 'ugly' face. Josh shook his head. "No you're not." "Yes I am. I'm so ugly, Josh." Tyler covered his face with his hands. "Well..I don't think you're ugly..I think you're beautiful." Josh sighed. Tyler looked up at Josh, then hugged him, burying his face into the crick of his neck. "Thank you, Josh." Josh hugged Tyler back, then just picked him up and carried him back to their room so he didnt have to see the light. Josh set him down and they began talking for hours and hours on end, Tyler crying most of the time, occasionally laughing, and Josh smiling, actually happy.
"Hey Tyler."
"Yeah, Josh?"
"Do you ever just..fantasize about what dying truly is?"
"Yeah.."
"Tyler?"
"Yeah?"
"I hope that one day, when we do, we can fall off the grid, together."
"Am I your friend, Josh?"
"Yes, of course."
"Lets fantasize together."
