The next morning, Josh lugged the huge keyboard into his car, and drove to Imagina. Carrying a keyboard wasn’t supposed to be that hard, and Josh was sure that he looked like an idiot. Nearly banging into every wall in the hospital, Josh kicks Tyler’s door open, and almost falls inside.

“Josh! CAREFUL!!!” Tyler says, jumping from his bed, leaping for his keyboard.

“Geez, you care more about that keyboard than me? Hurtful.”

“Boohoo, now move!”

Tyler eagerly uncovers the keyboard and moves it to the table. He runs his hands over the keys, and tears up. Tyler missed this more than anyone could ever imagine. He never thought he’d see it again. It was Tyler’s prized possession; it kept him alive.

Automatically, Tyler plugs in the cord to the power outlet and turns it on. Briefly looking at Josh for an okay, Tyler presses middle c, and Josh sits down on the bed.

It took Tyler about two minutes to remember how to play again, and he began playing a cover of can’t help falling in love.

Tyler’s voice was almost angelic. Josh sat there mesmerized by the boy singing his heart out while his fingers danced along the white and black keys. Josh could tell that Tyler was /truly/ happy, and that made Josh overjoyed.

As time went on, Tyler stopped doing covers, and began singing originals. Josh was beyond impressed; Tyler’s original music was pure genius. The melodies were amazing and the lyrics were so powerful; every song had a meaning and a story. Josh just sat on the bed in awe for the whole day, enjoying every moment of Tyler’s playing.

They eventually had to stop for the day to eat and sleep, so Tyler unplugged it, and wrapped it back up again. This is the most cheerful Josh has seen Tyler, and that made it all worth it. This made Josh fall in love with Tyler even more.

“Ty. That was. Oh my god, that was beautifully amazing. Amazing! I can’t even tell you how good that was. You’re a genius!”

“Thanks Josh.”

“Man, I love you.”

“I love you too. Man.” Tyler adds. Both Tyler and Josh laugh as they go in for a kiss. “Thank you Josh.”

“Dude, you don’t have to thank me for the keyboard.”

“I meant for everything.”

“Oh, always Ty. Anything for you.”
