January 2014.

*Tyler’s POV*

It has been two months since Troye and I started to force ourselves to act like just friends so our relationship won’t be ruined. Troye came LA for Christmas and we had the best time with the rest of the Youtube gang, but we had to keep it all to ourselves because people would’ve suspected even more if they knew we were together.

This was nearly a torture, it really hurts to love Troye this much and not being able to say it. I just wish Troye wasn’t so afraid, I just want people to know how much I love him.

I am now on an airplane on my way to Bath since Zoe has organized a “2014 welcoming party” or something like that, she’s always so feisty and cheesy when it comes to a new year. Also, all the american youtubers were going to be there too as well as Troye, Caspar and the british squad. My flight arrived after many hours of sleep, tumblr and texting Troye, and honestly I was just filled with jet lag. Troye’s flight wouldn’t land until one more hour, so I decided to eat some pizza at the airport while I waited for him.

I turned around to toss my empty water bottle in the trash, and suddenly I saw a tall slim figure walking towards me with a big smile.

“Tilly!” He said excitedly and hugged me.

“Hey babe! I’ve missed you!” Although it hasn’t even been a month since we saw each other, I always told him how much I had missed him while he was gone. We saw each other quite constantly, which is why I feel so empty when he’s not with me.

We took some cute selfies that I couldn’t post or share anywhere but with friends. I needed Troye to know that this short wait was killing me, but he seems to be totally fine with it so I guess I won’t bring it up.

We took a cab to Zoe’s house and it looked like we were the first ones to arrive. She was still in her PJs and only half of the living room was decorated.

“Guys!!!” She greeted us both with hugs. “How’s my OTP doing?!”

We laughed. “We’re good! Ugh but we’re the first ones to arrive…” I groaned.

“No you’re not! Marcus and Alfie are getting ready and they will be right out” 

“Cool,” Troye nodded in agreement. “Uh, can I use your restroom, Zo?”

“Sure, it’s down the hall to the left” 

Troye left to go to the bathroom and I was all alone in the living room scrolling through my tweets. I heard some footsteps approaching and I lifted my head up to see it was Tanya and Jim that had arrived. I stood up and greeted them, then they took the spot next to me. Troye should be here by now, but I decided not to worry.

*Troye’s POV*

We arrived to Zoe’s house and I had been wanting to fix my hair since my flight had landedZoe gestured me to the restroom and I opened the door at the end of the hallway. I guess I should’ve knocked before opening the door, since my eyes met a half-naked Marcus towel drying his hair. 

“Oh my god, Marcus I’m so sorry I- I should’ve kn-“

He laughed. “It’s okay Troye, it’s not like I’m naked!” 

He was right, he wasn’t naked. He was in his boxers but still I was pretty ashamed, we met at Playlist last year but we don’t really talk that much.

In the end we just laughed it off.

“Do you need to use the restroom? I can go to the bedroom if you want” He told me politely. I still don’t know why Tyler hates him. They used to be pretty good friends.

“Oh no, I actually just wanted to fix my hair a little bit” I said and he lent me his comb so I could fix it.

He quickly got dressed and we got out of the bathroom to make our way to the living room, where everybody had arrived.

I realized how strange it all looked when Tyler’s eyes widened as he saw us walking towards the living room. I hope he didn’t get the wrong idea. 

Hey everyone! I’m so sorry but I had to do another fast forward since I have an amazing idea but it needs to happen on 2014, so I’m sorry if that bothers you but i had to.

ALSO I AM STILL CRYING BECAUSE MY QUESTION WAS THE FIRST ONE THAT TYLER ANSWERED IN HIS NEW Q & SLAY AND I JUST STILL CAN’T BELIEVE IT

K i hope you all enjoyed this and GET READY BECAUSE NEXT CHAPTE WILL BE GOOOOOD
