Bayleigh lied in her HOH bed, staring up at the ceiling, thinking of how this week was going to go. The Hive was dwindling down fast. First Swaggy, then Kaitlyn, Rockstar, Faysal, and Scottie. Now it was only her and Haleigh battling for the Big Brother crown and, with Bayleigh as reigning HOH, the could make a game-altering decision. 

It was no question about who should be her target. It should be the main leader of the other side of the house. Tyler. The only one in the house winning comps left and right. The only one in the house playing an obvious puppet master. The only one in the house that everyone could agree would most likely win the big brother crown. But something in her wouldn't let her make that move. What was it? Why was it there? She knew what moves she had to make to win but she couldn't let herself do that.

For the past few weeks, She and Tyler had gotten closer. After Swaggy had ruined her name in the house the week he left, Tyler was right by her side comforting her. Swaggy had tried bragging to the whole house about how "easy" she was and how "good she was in bed". Of course, none of that was true. She and Swaggy had only kissed once. The night he got evicted, she was distraught and confused. And Tyler was right by her side, stroking her back and whispering comforting words into her ear. 

While she'll never know why Tyler comforted her that day, she does know that it changed her outlook on him completely. Ever since then, they had gotten insanely close. They did almost everything together. They would swim together, spend countless hours talking, sleep in the same bed, and, hell, sometimes they would eat off of the same plate. She just knew that he was her best friend in the house. Everyone could tell. Everyone pointed it out.

And, sure, maybe there were stronger feelings for him than she let on. Maybe there was something romantic hidden behind the scenes. But she knew that it would never happen. Tyler was focused on the game. His mind was dead set on that half a million and nothing she could do would change that. Tyler wasn't just a player. He came to win, and with every competition, it only got clearer. He wasn't here to mess around and get into a showmance. He wasn't here for her.

Who knows how long she laid in that bed. Who knows how long she thought about her nominations. She just knows that every thought she could have about the game always came around to Tyler. Just Tyler.

*knock knock*

Bayleighs eyes flashed open, losing her train of thought, as she looked towards the screen that showed the front of her HOH room door. And there, as one would guess, was the boy himself. Tyler Crispen.

Bayleigh rolled herself off the bed and fixed the wrinkled in her shirt. Walking towards the door and opening it, her heart beat lightly against her chest but as she opened it to reveal the curly haired boy, her heart fluttered for him. 

"Hey Bay," He said as she greeted him and moved aside to let her in, "Just came to hang out. Things are going wild out there"

He sat on the bed, leaning against the headboard, and watched Bayleigh as she closed the door.  "What do you mean?" As she cocked her head to the side and asked him, sitting on the bed next to him.
