I just got tackled by someone. I have no idea who it is. I start trying to get up. I look behind me and see Jonny sitting on my back with his nose bleeding really bad. He's trying to keep me down so I don't get shot. I hear more gunshots. Jonny finally gets off of me about 30 minutes later. No one is in the school except us because everyone evacuated the area. We go to where the shooter was because there is a tree behind it and on that tree there is a note saying "I'll be back for you Tyler. For what you did to me.-Toby."
"Hey guys look at this," I said.
"What the heck. This is bad news," Josh said.
"Very bad news. He's after me guys," I said.
I feel Josh's arms around me. I turn around fast because I think it might be Toby. He pulls me into a hug and kisses me. I'm starting to feel better when all of the sudden I hear a car moving fast down the road. It's a police car. I hear the sirens blaring. I don't feel like facing reality yet so I dig my face into Josh's chest. The cop gets out of the car and starts walking up to us.
"What are you two up to?" Officer Sam asked.
"There was a school shooting and we were victims of it," Josh said.
The cop noticed Josh's arm.
"Do you need to go to the hospital sir?" Officer Sam asked.
"Could you take me? That would be great," Josh said.
I pulled away from the hug and walked to the police car. Jonny followed us. We drove to the hospital. Josh was taken into the emergency room to get the bullet out of his arm. Jonny and I waited for him to come out. Then someone opens the door to the waiting room to enter. It was Toby.
"Hello brother. What has been happening?" Toby asked.
"How dare you? You just hurt Josh and did so much. I'm going to get back at you for this," I said.
"Woah woah calm down. Who's josh? I've always known you're a little fag," Toby said.
"Fuck off. Get out of my fucking LIFE Toby! I hate you for what you did to Mom. For what you did to poor little young Zack," I said.
The doctor came out.
"Hello Tyler. Josh will be fine. We just need to surgically remove the bullet and that's all. You can go home," the doctor said.
"Ok thanks. Jonny let's go," I said.
We started walking and Toby followed us. We were outside of the hospital when Toby grabbed Jonny by the throat.
"Toby no!" I yelled as I punched Toby.
"You've gotten stronger. I'll be back," Toby said and walked away.
Time skip to a month after the surgery...
Josh was finally back. Toby has been appearing at the worst times possible. Trying to hurt me the most. He stopped doing this about a week ago. He told me that something big was going to happen. I'm nervous about this. Josh is in my bed relaxing.
Time skip until two more days...
Josh had to go home last night. I am home with my mom and my brother Zack and my father. I'm going outside to get the mail. I see a note to me. I put the rest of the mail on the kitchen table. I go upstairs and open the letter. The note read:
Hey Tyler. It's Josh. My phone broke but I was wondering if you could meet me on top of that tall apartment that is a restaurant on top. I want to have lunch with you there. I think it would be fun. Meet me there at 2 pm today. Thanks.
Love,
Josh
I got my stuff and my car keys. It's almost 2 pm. It's currently 1:43 pm. The building is only about 14 minutes away. I go and get into traffic. I am stuck in traffic for about 7 minutes. I start going faster. I get to the building at 2:03 pm. I go up the stairs fast because the elevator is broken. I finally get to the top floor.
"Hey Josh sorry I'm la-" I said.
"Hello Tyler. Make one more step I dare you," Toby said. I stepped forward.
"What are you doing Toby? Why are you against that chair that is right next to the edge?" I asked.
"Hey Tyler 'my phone is broken.' Isn't that what 'Josh' wrote down? Oh wait that was me," Toby said as he threw Josh's phone off the roof.
"Who is in the chair?" I asked.
"Josh," Toby said with a smirk.
I stepped forward he started tipping the chair.
"What do you want Toby?" I asked.
"I want for you to be sad," Toby replied.
I noticed that Josh's hand is moving like he is carving something. He is tied up with duct tape and rope. He cut the rope and duct tape and he hit Toby over the head with his hand. He knocked Toby out. He is starting to fall. He caught the edge of the building last second. I run over and grab his hand. I pull him up and bring him into a hug. We decide to go to the treehouse. We sit down on the couch. We started talking about what has been happening. We talked about how there was a pattern. For three weeks Toby shows up every other day and then he doesn't show up for one week and then he comes back. I start to relax and cuddle with Josh. The next thing I know is that I'm asleep with Josh's arm over me.
