Joshs POV

(Three days later)
I wake up in a hospital bed. Damn it. It didn't work.. i didn't die. Ughhhh. I should have just shot myself. Now I won't ever be allowed out of anyone's sight. Oh fuck. I'm going to jail after this for everything I did.

Alec walks in.
"Oh good! You're awake!"

"WHERE IS TYLER"

"Uhm.. i don't know.."

"when are they coming to get me"
It hurts to talk.

"Calm down. Dylan and I delt with them. You have a false identity. Lukas Nelsen."

"Blood tests. They can find out it's me easily."

"No bloodtests will be done. I am the head doctor here. They do what I say."

"Facial recognition."

"Only me and Laura will be taking care of you. Nobody else is allowed in."

"Thanks for doing this alec"

"Yes. Now stop talking. You'll hurt yourself."

"Too late." He frowns.

"Oh, also you have a visitor. But don't talk. I don't need a patient in pain."

I nod and he opens the door. I can't believe my eyes.

ITS TYLER!!
he runs over to me and hugs me. I wince and pull away.

"oh" he lets go.

"No tyler, it isn't like that. His body hurts. A lot." Alec looks over to me.

"Oh. Of course. Sorry Josh.."

"Y-You're f-f-fine."
Alecs eyes shoot to me.

"O-oops."
He smiles.

"I'll leave you two alone."

"Thanks Alec."
I nod in agreement. He walks away and shuts the door.

"Josh!! I'm sorry I tried to do that.. I'm sorry i didn't remember.. i-i f-f-found your note and-"
He starts to sob and he sets his head on my chest.

"Tyler.. i.. it was just my fault and i just dont.. i just dont deserve you.."

"Don't say that!!! I don't deserve you!! You saved me, Josh. I was in a dark place when you found me and you made me happy again!!"

"I-I l-l-love you t-ty."
Everything is blurry. I can't see anything anymore. I hear a loud beeping noise and yelling. I can't make out what's going on. I see Alec hovering above me.. but even he's a blur. Suddenly everything goes black.

Tylers PoV

"N-no! Save him Alec!! He can't die!!"

"Tyler he is seriously injured. He tried to kill himself. He fell into rocks. Tons of rocks. He is in critical condition. Talking is one of the hardest things for him."

"NO!!!!!"

"It might be best to let him go."

"I WATCHED HIM JUMP. I CAN'T LET HIM DIE." I look at josh and notice his wrists.

Cuts.

"SAVE HIM ALEC."

"TYLER I'M TRYING."
The beeping sounds endless. And every time I hear that beep, I know Josh is getting even closer to death.
Dylan runs in with some guy.

He looks at Josh and starts to cry.

"I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN HE WAS UP TO SOMETHING!! WHO HIDES A FUCKING SHOPPING LIST UNDER THEIR COUCH?! IDIOT IDIOT IDIOT!!!"

The guy grabs him by the hand and pulls him close. Alec looks up and sees that.

"Brendon, off."

"Oh. Yea. Sure."
He lets go of Dylan and dylan walks over to me. He sits down in the chair next to mine. He grabs my hand and starts to cry.

"T-T-Tyler I-I-I'm
s-s-s-sorry. It's my fault"

"No Dylan, it's not. It's mine. I had to go and mess things up and look what happened."

"Tyler.. no it is not. Do not fight with me on this."
I shrug and continue crying. I can tell Dylan notices his cuts because he starts to cry even harder. Please god. Please let him live.

(Two hours later)

Josh's eyes flutter open. I run up to him and give him a kiss on the cheek.

"Josh!! I was so scared!!"
He looks around.

"T-T-Ty-"

"Joshie I'm sorry but no talking. I love you."
He nods and looks at everyone. My phone goes off. I don't know if I told anyone but i changed Dylans song to my ringtone. He looks at me and starts to laugh.

"That's your ringtone?"

"Yep!"

"Wow. I actually have a fan."

"Well I mean your video for it only has 200k likes."

"What?"

"Mhm."

"OMG."
I smile.

"Dylan, Brendon, Tyler, I need you to leave."

"Why"

"Just go"
We all nod and walk out.
I hop into Dylans car. He drops me off at 'my house'.
I walk inside and see the kittens. I smile. I go into the bedroom and notice that there is some of Joshs stuff. There's a picture.. a picture of Josh and a boy in a treehouse. They looked about 9. Josh was missing one of his front teeth. I pick it up and on the back of it it says 'Our treehouse burned down. -J'

Wow. Wait. Maybe.. just maybe.. I could build him a treehouse!! I'm not a good builder though. Wait. I could build it just like that one. I pick my phone up and call a weird treehouse builder dude.

"Hello?"

"Hi. Do you think you could help me build a treehouse for my friend in the hospital?"

"Sure. Where?"

"Meet me at Leeland Park."

"Will do."
I hop into the car and take 15K with me. I pull up to the park and wait. A truck pulls up and a guy gets out. Holy smokes. He's cute. I mean.. uh. No.

"Are you the guy from the treehouse place?"

"Oh. Yea. And you are?"

"Tyler."

"So what do you want it to look like?"

I hand him the picture.

"Is that you?"

"No. It's my friend."

"I knew a kid that looked like that. He was my brothers bestfriend. I never really knew what happened to him. I think his name was Josh. Josh Dun."
