Closed doors (joshler)

Thirty-five

Josh let out a laugh as he took another bite of his hamburger. Patrick sobered up from laughing himself, "hey, what time is it? I have to be back home by five." Josh checked his phone, his eyes widening upon seeing six missed calls from Tyler.

He quickly stood up, "shit." He had completely forgot that he was supposed to take Tyler home.

Patrick's eyebrows furrowed, "josh? You ok?"

Josh ran a hand through his hair, "dammit, I'm sorry Patrick, but I gotta go. I'll see you later."

Before Patrick could answer josh was already pulling on his winter coat and jogging out of the restaurant. Once he got in his car, josh called Tyler. He cursed under his breath when it went straight to voicemail. Josh tried again and it still went straight to voicemail.

Josh; Ty, can you please pickup the phone??

Josh still didn't get an answer, causing a frustrated sigh to leave Josh's lips. He couldn't pick Tyler up if he didn't know where he was. Josh decided to check the school first. He drove there as far as he could, disappointed in not finding him. Josh tried his cellphone again, but still didn't get an answer.

Josh began driving down the road, letting out a sigh of relief when he saw Tyler walking along side the road. Josh pulled up next to him and slowed down to Tyler's pace. He rolled down the window and leaned over, "Tyler, I'm so so sorry. I swear I didn't leave you on purpose-"

Tyler sent josh a glare, causing josh to shut his mouth. Tyler faced forward again and kept walking. He had his arms wrapped around his torso, trying to keep in his body heat. Josh let out another sigh, "Tyler, please get on the car."

Tyler let it a huff and kept his eyes anywhere but Josh's, "fuck off, josh. I'm not in the mood."

Josh rolled his eyes and spoke in more of a demanding voice this time, "Tyler, get in the fucking car before you freeze to death."

Tyler snapped back, "I'm fine walking, asshat."

Tyler glanced at josh wen he heard the car come to a stop. His eyebrows furrowed and came to a stop when he heard a car door being opened. Josh got out of the car and began making his way to Tyler. "Jesus, Tyler, why do have to be so difficult sometimes. It's not that fucking hard to open the god damn door and get in."

Josh grabbed onto Tyler's wrist and Tyler pulled his wrist away, "I don't want to get in the car with you."

Josh scoffed, "then why are you so fucking angry!?"

Tyler pushed josh slightly, "because I wasn't pissed at you until you ditched me!"

Josh let out a laugh and shook his head, "your so fucking messed up sometimes. If you couldn't notice, I'm trying to make up for it right now but your too damn stubborn."

Tyler rolled his eyes and began walking away again. Tyler glared at josh when he grabbed onto his wrist again, "leave me alone, josh!"

Josh yankd Tyler back to him, "why are you making such a scene? Your acting like I killed your fucking brother! If anyone has any right to be mad it should be me!"

Tyler's mouth dropped open, "oh really? I left you in the could to freeze?"

Josh rolled his eyes, "I'm pissed because you've been avoiding me. At school you act like you barely know me!"

Tyler scoffed, "no, I do not."

"Yes, you do! Your just too much of a sorry ass to admit it!"

Tyler tried walking away again, muttering, "I'm done talking to you."

Josh yanked Tyler back to him, once again. "No your not, Ty. Answer my god damn question. Why the hell have you been avoiding me?"
