Things Get Better (I promise)

Chapter TWENTY SIX

Tyler woke up next to Josh in his bed. Josh didn't actually sleep in his room anymore. Tyler started to think. He thought about everything that had happened that year. What had happened? He met Jish, they had a fight and became boyfriends. Tyler smiled at the thought. But he had allso been with Pete and Pete had abused Tyler. Tyler sighed and got up. He took a shower and walked to his closet.

Tyler got dressed and walked outside. Josh was still sleeping. Tyler wanted to go on a jogging trip by himself and maybe buy a starbucks to Josh. Josh loved starbucks. Tyler liked how tumblr Josh was sometimes.

Tyler walked out the door. They were standig on each side of the hallway and looking at him. Tyler just walked towords them. He clenched his fist and was about to walk by them when a foot was placed in front of his and he stumbled. His phone fell inn the stone floor and it smahed. Tyler bit his teeth together. All the boys were laughing and Tyler looked at them. "That was so unnessesery." Tyler said and turned around. He was on the edge of crying. "But, we can do whatever we want now that Josh isn't here." Michael said and grabbed him by his collar. "You arn't so though when he's not here are you?"  He said and punched Tyler in the stumach. Tyler crunched up and started to cry. "Oh, don't you cry. We're not done with you yet." Gerard said and grabbed Tyler's jaw. He turned his face towords a door. Someone stepped out. Somone he knew. But not in a good way. No. He didn't want to know him. He hated him. He din't want to se that man ever again. But here he is. Seeing him for the third time since he left. "Hey baby boy." Pete said and grabbed Tyler's crouch. Tyler cringed and he tried to wiggle out of the boy's grip. Bob pulled off Tyler's t-shirt. Tyler tried to cover his stumack. "Oh look at you. Cutting yourself because of Josh. I bet he doesn't even know it." He said and looked at him. "I bet he wouldn't even care. Because he hates you so much that he wants you to cut yourself." Pete said. He got closer. "Or maybe he does it for you?" He whispered. "You can tell me. Does he cut you?" He whispered. Tyler was crying and trying to get out of their grip. "No, let me go!" Tyler yelled. Pete pulled out a razorblade. "Is this the thing you use?" He said and held it close to Tyler's face "To cut yourself?" He said and slid it against Tyler's cheek. Then he made someone hold out Tyler's arm. "Oh, no scars here. I think it would look good he said and Tyler watches as the metal got pushed against his skin and slid across his wrist. Tyler yelled and screamed but ut didn't work. Tyler closed his eyes. He felt the burning fealing in his wrist where pete had just cut him. "Wanna do it again?" Pete said. "No, let me go! Let me go Pete! Josh!!" Tyler yelled. "Oh, Josh isn't coming. Don't you see? He doesn't love you." Pete whispered into his ear. Pete grabbed Tyler's chin and kissed him. The kiss was sloppy and Tyler cried even more. "Josh!" Tyler yelled again. Two girls walked up the stairs and saw what the boys were doing to Tyler. They ran down and pete and the others ran after them. Tyler got dropped down on the cold hard floor and Tyler just wanted to die.

Why didn't they just kill him? "Why didn't you just kill me?" Tyler yelled. He ran back to his dorm. Josh sat there with his phone in his hands. "There you are I've been- where is your shirt?" Josh said and looked at him weirldly. Tyler cried and ran back out. Josh notised the blood dripping down Tyler's arm. "Tyler!" Josh yelled. Josh got up and ran after him. Josh was a little faster than Tyler. Josh maniged to grab Tyler's wrist and stop him. "Tyler what the fuck is going on?" Josh said and looked at him. "Oh you know, just the normal. Getting stopped in the hallway by gerard and getting punched in the stumack. Then pete popping up out of no where and someone pulling off my shirt. Then-" Tyler cried. "Then Pete cut me with a razorblade. But aside from that, nothing really." Tyler said and cried more. He was really angery. Why didn't Josh just save him? Josh just stood there in shock. "Why didn't you save me Josh?" Tyler said and ran out. He ran to the forest.

Tyler fell down on his knees and tilted his head down and whispered. "I won't take much of your time, I just want you to see what I have made inside these lines. It's as good as I can be. This is all that I can be. All that I can be.

Jesus... Jesus... please.. SAVE!
Save me! Save, save, save! Save, save, save, save, save, save, save. Save me, save me, save me. Save me, save me, save me..

I won't take much of your time...
Just enough, for you to save me."

Tyler laid down on the ground. He looked to his wright. The knife from when he last wanted to die. Tyler looked up and saw the treehouse. Tyler grabbed the muddy knife, he looked at it and climed up in the treehouse.

Tyler flipped it open. Tyler started to write in the planks as he sang on a song he had written.

I'm a goner

Somebody catch my breath

"Though I'm weak And beaten down I'll slip away into this sound The ghost of you is close to me I'm inside out You're underneath...

I'm a goner Somebody catch my breath I'm a goner Somebody catch my breath I wanna be known by you! I wanna be known by you..." Tyler sang and at the last word he jumped.
