Tyler's POV

As soon as I heard Jaycee was coming, my anxiety started to raise, and I felt a bit uncomfortable. It hurt to hear her name, my heart shattered every time.

"Is everything alright?" Josh asked, turning his head toward me.

"I-ts fine. I'm fine." I lied, fake smiling.

"Tyler, stop! Please, stop lying to me. I know you're not okay." Josh yelled.

"I'm fine! Dammit, just stop!" I yelled back, pulling at my hair.

"Tyler, st-"

"Leave me alone!" I yelled, running out the front door.

Josh ran out the door after me, and grabbed my arm.

"Stop Tyler!" He said.

"Can i just please be alone?  I don't want to be here!" I cried.

"Let me go with you!" Josh said.

"No, I'll be back soon. I promise! I just need alone time." I said as I wiped under my eyes.

Josh stared at me, then stared at the ground.

"You know what? Fine. You better get back soon." He sighed.

I hated it. I hated fighting with him, I hated fighting with jaycee, I hated fighting with everyone. I was done.

I started to walk, and then I decided to go to the nearest store for a redbull. I walked inside, and noticed Zack in there.

"Tyler? You're out already?!" He asked, running toward me and hugging me.

"Yes." I mumbled

"Did you tell mom and dad?" He asked.

"Yes, josh called them and told them." I said quietly.

Zack stared at me and a frown grew on his face.

"I'm taking you home. You need to rest Ty, you aren't getting any better."

"Whatever," I mummbled,

I bought my redbull, and Zack brought me to his car.

He started the engine, and we drove.

"I'm sorry." Is all I could manage to say.

"Don't. You've done nothing wrong."

I stared at him. That was not true.

"Everyone is leaving me. Jaycee left, Jenna left, and I won't be surprised if you and our family left, and I wouldn't be surprised if josh left. He's my best friend, but he's getting annoyed with me and I know it." I said quietly.

"Tyler, listen. You've done amazing things. You've saved people, you've even saved me. And our family, even josh. You are an amazing guy, but you need time to save yourself. Jaycee would never leave you, she's been so worried about you." He said.

He was right, I needed the time to save myself.

"Okay."

We made it to the house, and jaycee still wasn't there yet. I was kinda sad, but then again I was upset about her and brendon.

Zack helped me inside, and josh sat on the couch, crying?

"Josh?" Is all I could say.

Zack ran over to him, and comforted him.
