Taxi Cab (Sequel to Trees.:The Beginning:.)

Chapter 11

{Tyler}

I wasn't feeling all that good at the moment. I didn't know what it was but my stomach kept hurting and churning. I didn't want to bother Josh about it at the moment because it wasn't that bad. We had an amazing day together and whatnot but it started to get dark. I looked out the window that was right off the living room. It wasn't snowing and it wasn't all that cold right now. Josh was rubbing my chest and stomach. It was paradise until I pushed him off of me and ran as fast as I could to the nearest bathroom.

I ran into the bathroom that was close to the kitchen and pulled the toilet seat and top up. I slammed on my knees and let out chunks of food we ate. I heard footsteps and then josh was right by my sit rubbing my back as the acid came out of my stomach, up my throat and out of my mouth.

I gaged and gaged until I stopped for a few minutes. I sat back and Josh was there to hold me. I became dizzy as I felt my mouth water. I knew the vomit was coming. I then got back on my knees and put my face above the toilet and Josh was they're assisting and comforting me. I then gaged again and then more chunks came out. I felt a hand on my shoulders and I smiled for a split second until I gaged again and liquid came out. As I felt like my stomach was more empty than when I don't eat I sat against the wall and Josh did as well.

"Are you okay?" Josh asked as he put his hand on my knee and rubbed his thumb in circles.

"Now I am." I said with a chuckle as we looked into each other's eyes. I looked at him with a confused look. "Are you going to kiss me? If you are I highly advise you not to cause, I'm gross." Josh smirked at me and came close to me and puckered his lips. 'Ewe' I thought. I then felt lips on my cheek. I smiled and put my head on his shoulder and closed my eyes.

"Well, do you feel better?" He asked and looked at me with sympathy.

"Ish." I said as I motioned my hand for that 'so, so' kind of thing.

"Was it something I did or..." Josh asked as he puckered his lips out.

"I don't know I just don't feel good. That's all." I then lay my head on Josh's shoulder and took a deep breath. I then clenched my throat and hissed as the acid from the vomit burned a hole in the back of my throat.

"You may want to rinse out your mouth and then drink milk to get rid of the stomach acid." He suggested as he scooted forward, grasped the sink, got up and held his hand in attempt to help me up. I took his hand and turned on the faucet. I cupped my hands to hold water and brought it to my mouth. I gargled the water and then spit it out with disgust. Josh looked at me in worry.

"Ill get your milk and you go to my room if you want to or just sit in the living room. Just get comfy." He smirked as he headed to the kitchen. I didn't know what was up with me but I knew Josh wanted to take care of me and he was. I wasn't used to people being this nice to me unless they heard about my mental illness. Josh might be different but I wasn't really sure at the moment.

I got out of the bathroom and headed up to josh's room. I walked up the stairs and into his beautiful room. His room had so much color and I loved how only one small lava lamp could light the whole black room. (Being that his walls were painted black) I sat on his bed and it was not too stiff and not too squishy. It was just right. But I noticed as I sat I could smell something. It smelled nice. Really nice. I then went in and sniffed the pillows. They smelled so good. I didn't know what it was.

I heard footsteps coming up the stairs and smiled as I saw Josh with a cup of milk and a Nintendo gaming system. Tyler exchanged smiles with Josh as he set the cup of milk on the nightstand next to the bed. He also started to hook up the system to his flat screen. I looked over to the darker painting and still wanted to know his real story.

"When do you want to go out?" Josh asked as he came to me with a remote control.

"Whenever you want to." I said with a smirk.

"I love when you do that." Josh said as he sat next to me on the bed and covered me up.

"When I do what?" I asked.

"When you smirk." He scoffed and kissed my forehead.

I knew I made a decision for Josh and I to be more than friends but it didn't feel right. Especially when our fans 'ship' us as 'joshler' and now it's a reality I didn't know what to do.

This thought has roamed through my head while we were playing Mario Kart. Josh was getting upset I was winning. After an eighth victory I spoke.

"When do you think we should come out?" I asked a little hesitant.

"What do you mean?" he asked as we went to the game menu.

{Josh}

I knew what he was asking but I had a plan. Christmas was coming and my plan was going to surprise Tyler. I knew he would either love or hate it.

"I mean we have fans who think I'm in love with Jenna Black and they think you're in love with that Disney channel girl Debby Ryan." He said a little defensive. I turned off the Nintendo and my TV so we could talk some more about this situation.

"I know. I don't think it's the right time just yet. Plus if you're not looking at anyone then I'm not." I said as I leaned in for a kiss. All that came was rejection. I frowned and Tyler did as well. He crossed his arms in frustration.

"Ty, c'mon." I pleaded. "I know you're mad but I do indeed love you. I have ever since Jared introduced us. I have when I didn't know you were the one we were supposed to meet. When I walked in that coffee shop that day I spotted you out of all the people there. You had on black skinnies and your cute sweater that fits you so perfectly and your beanie I love on you so much. I also noticed the gloves you were wearing that day. They had the fingertips cut off and you looked like a rebel." I smirked as I finished the last sentence. He was trying to hold back a smile.

Tyler then turned away and hid under the blanket I covered him up with.I knew he was frustrated but he needed to wait.
