(FLUFF)
Yoo I actually kind of really like this
Tyler's admitted into the hospital for a lung condition and Josh ends up being his appointed nurse.
This isn't an original concept though, I got inspiration from @ heavydirtydun on Wattpad and really wanted to write my own version of it

Tyler's body racks with coughs, and he wheezes miserably. The machines in the room beep rhythmically, the sharp sound driving him crazy by the hour.
Sure, Tyler's lungs fucked up now and then, making it an occasional thing to have to be rushed to the hospital. But he'd been in here for a week already, and the doctors still hadn't mentioned letting him go.
He hears footsteps down the hallway, immediately recognizing it to be those of his usual nurse that came to check on him. But with it was another set of footsteps.
"Tyler?" Nurse Jenna peeks through the door at the frail boy snuggled in the milky white sheets.
"I want you to meet someone. He'll be your new appointed nurse." the blonde lady smiles, stepping in and beckoning to the man behind her.
Tyler's eyebrows furrow up as he glances at him.
He has a mop of bright yellow hair, and a bright tattoo sleeve up his right arm that's partly covered by his uniform, as well as a nose ring, and really pretty honey brown eyes.
"This is Joshua, and he'll be looking after you until you get discharged." Jenna says, glancing at the tall man.
"Just call me Josh." he replies, lips tugging into a smile. Tyler coughs again.
Jenna smiles at them both, before nodding and leaving the room. Josh goes over to the smaller boy, ticking off something on his checklist.
"So Tyler? How're you feeling?" the yellow-haired man asks, glancing up at the brunet as he sits down.
"I want to die." Tyler croaks with a sadistic smile, breathing starting to finally steady.
"I think we all do at the moment, but I'm certaintly not letting such a pretty boy die just like that hm?" Josh's lips quirk into a smile, little tongue poking out between his teeth as he checks the machine that Tyler's hooked up to.
The brunet's pink cheeks go unnoticed as Josh goes over to the cabinet in the corner, pulling out his daily prescription of pills.
He hands him the glass of water, their hands brushing as Tyler sips it, just barely swallowing the pill and gagging afterwards, causing Josh to chuckle.
"You should be able to be discharged by this Friday, if your coughing subsides. You'll still have to come for weekly checkups for the following month, just to make sure your lungs are in a stable condition..." Josh says, finger tracing the piece of paper on his checklist.
Up close, Josh smells like buttercream. Tyler can see the little freckles scattered across his arms and face like stars, and the warm brown hues of his eyes melt into each other under the light - and for some reason, it sends tingles down Tyler's spine.
The brunet exhales shakily, shifting his legs under the sheets.
"I'll be here every day 'round at ten and again at four." Joshua glances up at him with a smile that makes Tyler feel all warm inside. "S'that okay for you, Tyler?"
The smaller boy nods in response, dark, chocolate brown hair feathering just above his eyes.
"Remember to drink lots of water." Josh says, ticking off his checklist again. Tyler coughs slightly, casting a defiant gaze at Joshua.
"Fight me."
"No, because your lungs aren't gonna hold up for that long." Josh quirks an eyebrow, smiling playfully. "We can always do that after you recover, though, if you insist."
He then pulls a piece of paper out of his pocket, scribbling something on it before placing it on the edge of Tyler's bed, smirking as he gets up and wlaks out of the room, whistling under his breath as he writes something down on the clipboard.
Tyler picks it up, a line of messy numbers on the piece of paper.

Oh, that goddamn smiley face.

"Tyler, honey! Let's go!" Mrs Joseph smiles, pulling open the car door. Tyler nods, gesturing for her to go on first, before he turns, eyes scanning the door for a certain yellow-haired boy.
And then, Josh pokes his head out behind the glass window, a wide smile on his face as he waves at the brunet.
Tyler waves back, his own plump lips tugging into a grin, the tips of his fingers feeling all tingly-like.
Then he turns, slowly getting into the backseat of the car, immediately pulling out his phone.
It was Friday, and he was going home as scheduled. The two had become generally good friends over the last couple days, Josh even taking some lunches off to come check on the boy and make sure he was getting enough water.
All Tyler knew was that Joshua was funny, and made him feel all :) inside.
Tyler :): still wanna fight u
Josh x: taco bell sunday 2pm may the best man win
A quiet giggle escapes out of Tyler's plump lips, and Mrs Joseph quirks an eyebrow, glancing at her son in the mirror. Tyler bites his lip, dimples etched into his soft skin.
"Met someone new at the hospital?" she chuckles, turning her head back to her driving. Tyler's cheeks flush red, and he smiles bashfully.
"Y-yeah, his name is Josh, and he's really nice......"
