Tyler entered the boy's locker room, panting slightly. The football boys were already in there, naked and roaming around. Steam filled the room, since the showered were on. Tyler walked over to his locker and began to strip from his sweaty work out clothes. He walked to one of the unoccupied showers and turned it on.

He sighed as the water his his body. Tyler glanced to the shower next to him and immediately regretted it. Josh was in the shower across from him and Tyler quickly looked away. Tyler's eyebrows furrowed.

Why the fuck is he so intimidating, Tyler thought.

He glanced back at josh and this time he couldn't pull his eyes away. His hair dripped in his face and Tyler could easily see the freckles on his shoulders and back. Tyler's eyes followed down to Josh's prominent V line and his sharp hipbones. Tyler bit his lip and forced himself not to travel any further down. His heart began to race and panic washed over him.

He quickly looked away and rested his head on the wall. He couldn't look at boys. He couldn't. Tyler felt josh eyes on him and he stole a small glance from josh. He quickly looked away, staring at the floor as he washed his body. He still felt Josh's eyes on him and it made him uncomfortable. Not because josh was staring at him, but because he liked that josh was staring at him.

Tyler let out a shaky breath as he quickly finished washing his body. He turned the shower head off and wrapped a towel around his waste. As he walked back to his locker, he turned to see josh still staring at him. Brendon walked up next to him and began drying his hair, "you ok, man? Your face is all flushed and you look nervous."

Tyler let out a nervous laugh and smile. "No! No, I'm perfectly fine," Tyler cursed himself for how his voice was higher pitched.

Brendon narrowed his eyes, "you sure, dude? Every time you lie, your voice goes super high...like right now."

Tyler glanced both ways before nodding quickly. Brendon rolled his eyes, "you're still lying, but oh well." Tyler began getting dressed as he leaned closer to Brendon.

"You don't think josh is gay, right?"

Brendon looked at Tyler and snorted, "what makes you say that?"

Tyler shrugged, glancing at josh. "He was staring a me while I was showering." 

Brendon looked over at josh, who was now getting dressed. "I doubt it, he's dating Debby."

Tyler narrowed his eyes at josh, "maybe he's Bi."

Brendon let out an amused laugh, "why do you care so much, do you plan on stealing him from Debby?"

Tyler stomped his foot angrily, "I am not gay, Brendon Boyd Urie."

Brendon let out a sigh, "ok, ok. Whatever you say."

Tyler looked at him bewildered, "what's that supposed to mean?"

Brendon smirked, "nothing." Tyler let out a huff and slammed his locker shut. He wasn't really angry at Brendon, he was angry that he couldn't get josh out of his mind.

¿?

Tyler approached Jenna with a smile. He tapped her shoulder, "hey, Jenna."

Jenna looked at him, "yes?"

Tyler scratched the back of his neck, "uh, I'm sorry about Saturday. I was being a jerk."

Jenna bit her lip and stared at the ground, "it's fine. Is that all you wanted to say?"

Tyler shook his head, "um, no." He gulped, "I was thinking about the party and...uh, do you still want to go with me?"

Jenna grinned, "wait, really?"

Tyler nodded and Jenna frowned, "you're not doing this out of pity, right?"

Tyler shook his head with wide eyes, "no! No, I would never. I-I really wanna go with you."

Jenna blushed, tucking a strand of her hair behind her ear, "then, y-ya. I would really love to go with you."

Jenna leaned up and placed a kiss on Tyler's cheek before skipping off to class. Tyler let out a sigh and turned around. He jumped, seeing josh was behind him smiling. Tyler placed a hand over his heart, "Jesus, josh, you scared me."

Josh chuckled and leaned against the lockers, "so you and Jenna, huh? I thought you didn't like her?"

Tyler shrugged shyly, "well, I don't, but maybe if I got to know her more...I don't know, I might like her then."

Josh nodded and Tyler raised an eyebrow, "what about you, are you going with Debby?"

Josh nodded, "ya."

An awkward silence fell over the two and Tyler cleared his throat, "well...uh, I should get to class."

Josh nodded again, smiling down at the smaller boy, "ya, me too."

Tyler began walking away when he thought back to the locker room. He turned around, "josh?"

Josh turned back around and raised an eyebrow, "hm?"

Tyler opened his mouth to speak, but nothing came out. Maybe josh wasn't staring at him and it was all in his head. Tyler sighed and shook his head, "n-nothing. I'll see you later."

Josh nodded, his eyebrows furrowing, "uh, ok."

Tyler watched as josh walked away. Tyler let out a whine as he buried his head in his hands, "what the fuck is wrong with me?"
