Blurry's the one I'm not

i will protect you

Tyler sat up quickly, hitting his head on roof of the bed, he forgot that they were on the bus and it had those weird beds. (author slightly struggling to desribe a bed)
He was all sweating and breathing heavily, sheets on the ground, throat sore. Everyone else was still sleeping so Tyler decided to take a shower.
It was really uncomfortable due to the small space he was given. he pulled off his sweaty shirt and boxers and got in the shower. when the hot water hit his wrists, it started to hurt terribly. Then Tyler remembered about his dream with Blurryface and how he dug his nails into Tyler's skin. he could feel the pain. Tyler started to panic, world around him spinning, walls coming closer. He collapsed in a corner of the shower.
"Tyleerrr, don't use all the hot water, i wanna shower too" Josh yelled from the other side of the door.
"uhm, yeah, yeah, i'm coming" Tyler quietly stuttered out. He was scared. If Blurry can affect his life, he can actually kill him.

~~~
"hey, Josh, can we talk? the two us?" Tyler quietly asked his pink-haired friend.
"sure. what's up? you okay? you've been kinda weird these past days" Josh said with a concerned look on his face.
Tyler breathed in and was ready to finally tell Josh about Blurry.
"so.. you remember I told you about that 'demon' i had in me? that when i was younger it was tormenting me?"
Josh nodded.
Tyler continiued, "well i feel like he's-" he was cut out by Mark coming in and saying they arrived and they had to go for a sound-check and to their dressing rooms.
"i guess you'll tell me later" Josh said, a little dissapointed still not knowing what was bothering his friend. "come on, let's go" Josh took Tylers hand and they were heading to the building their show will be in.
Tyler took his bags and followed Josh into the building. There was already a crowd of fans. Tyler looked at them with excitement and love until he saw Blurry in the middle of the crowd. he smirked and waved at him mouthing the words "see you tonight".
Tyler was terrified, he didn't want anything ruining their show. "i won't be afraid, i won't be afraid. " he said to himself, trying to convince him to stay strong.

~~~
it was time to do sound-check. Every instrument was in it's place, Josh was talking to some guys about the lights so Tyler decided to sing something to test the microphones. He played his piano and sang some lines from "Trees", his favorite. Josh and Tyler looked at each other and smiled.
Tyler looked at all the empty chairs that will be filled that night. beautiful.
he decided to sing some lines from a old song from his album, a song called "Drown". He looked at the audience again and saw someone in the middle. it was Blurry. he was applauding and smirking, light shining in his bright red eyes.
"J-Josh! he-he's here" Tyler screamed for Josh.
"what? who is?" Josh squinted his eyes scanning the hall.
"h-he will ruin everything, Josh. don't let him ruin it, please" Tyler stuttered as he passed out and fell on the ground.

~~~
Tyler woke up, his head hurting like crazy, eyes sore, and red.
"what happened?" he asked in a raspy voice, seeing Josh rushing to him, holding a cup of coffee.
"dude, you passed out and fell, hitting your head. how are you feelin?"
"well, i've been better" Tyler said, sitting up.
"you said that someone is trying to ruin everything. what did you mean?" Josh asked, sitting down on a side of Tylers bed.
"ugh, you remember Blurryface, right? well he's back. Josh, he's torturing me again... I'm scared"
Josh looked at Tyler with wide eyes, almost dropping his coffee, "w-what? he's back? i thought that they got rid of him when you went to doctors and stuff. do you see Blurry? is he talking to you?"
Tyler gulped "i thought so too, but i guess your inner demons never die. i see him. everywhere. i saw him in the crowd of fans, when we came in, in the audience when we were sound-checking. Josh, i had a dream and he said that i cant escape from him, that even you cant help me.." Tyler started to panic, twisting uncomfortably in his bed.
Josh took his hand and looked in his eyes. The pink-haired boy looked so calm, though his mind was panicing along with Tyler. "listen, Ty, it will be okay. he can't hurt you, i'm here, i will protect you like you protected me, okay?"
Tyler showed Josh his wrist where Blurry dug into. "he can, Josh. and i'm just scared that he could hurt you too. " Tyler couldn't help it anymore. Tears started streaming down his cheeks.
Josh didn't say a thing anymore. He held Tyler in his hands while they both were quietly sobbing from frustration and fears of losing each other.
"I will protect you. No matter what he says. I will, Tyler. I promise." Josh wispered and these words echoed in Tyler's head giving him a bit of hope. That little bit of hope was destroyed when a guy came in and asked if they can perform. "we can cancel this show, if you wanna" Josh smiled at Tyler.
"no, no, we have to perform. I'll be fine. really. " he made a little smile and slowly got up.
The show scared Tyler the most because Blurry will be there. He knew it. And it was terrifying.
