Tyler can hear Josh humming mindlessly when he approaches the treehouse. He cautiously climbs up the ladder, poking his head in.
Josh is sitting there, flicking the lighter on and off as if in a trance.
"Hey," Tyler says, and Josh nearly drops the lighter in surprise.
"Hi," he says, pocketing the lighter. "Come in."
Tyler hesitantly clambers in. "So, I wanted to apol-"
He's cut off when Josh surges forward and presses C major lips to his.
The kiss last longer than the last one, and this time both of them are contributing. Josh's mouth is warm and sweet, and Tyler can feel his own heart thumping madly.
Josh's soft, blue-sky hands reach up. One cradles the back of his neck, and the other cups his jaw. Tyler's hands hesitantly reach up as well, grasping Josh's shoulders.
They finally pull back, and Tyler slowly opens his eyes to see Josh's still closed, looking utterly contented.
They just sit there for a moment, catching their breaths.
"Why'd you run?" Josh asks, breaking the silence.
"Why didn't you kiss back?" Tyler answers.
There's another moment of silence.
"I like you," Josh says suddenly. His voice sounds a little different. Like rain falling up. "I like you a lot."
"I like you a lot too," Tyler says, and Josh beams at him, tiger-growl teeth peaking through C major lips.
"Good," he whispers, odic, and kisses him again.
