Oh look who finally updated... oops.

Next update will either be next week or the week after. This chap was originally going to be longer as I had written these events in Tyler's POV from the moment Troye slammed the door in Tylers face up until just after the point this chapter finishes at, but decided at the last minute to cut it in half... mostly so I have something else to post later instead of making up excuses as to why I haven't updated when I said I would... haha *looks around innocently*

Also smut can be expected in the next chapter so it'll make up for it... kinda.

Happy reading!

Troye POV

I lay there in the dark, wishing with all my might that I could just go to sleep and forget the stupidity of my earlier actions.

Why had I acted that way? We'd finally been on a good path, and I'd gone and screwed everything up again.

"What's wrong with me?" My whispered question went unanswered as small hot tears fell from my eyes. I swiped at them angrily, completely fed up with myself and my raging emotions.

The screen of my phone lit the room with an incoming text.

Hey, not sure if you're still awake or not, but you sounded kinda desperate earlier, so I thought I'd check in on you...

I fumbled with my phone, typing out a quick reply before hitting send.

Hey, yeah. Still awake. Haven't been able to sleep at all... can I call you?

My phone lit up again, this time with an incoming call. I answered quickly with a whispered hello.

"Hey Con."

"Hey yourself Troye," he whispered back. "Um, why are we whispering?"

"Because it's almost two in the morning and I don't want to wake anyone up?"

"Ahh, gotcha. Sorry, time zones and whatnot."

"Yeah, don't worry it's ok."

There was a slight pause and I thought on how to continue.

"So, what's troubling you? Is it Tyler?"

"How-"

"What else could it be? You tell him everything, so I figured it must be something to do with him and what we spoke about in Brighton a while back... am I right or am I right?"
