Tears. Tears. Tears.

You don't know what to do.

Book in hand ready to destroy it.

Being real on your mind.

You're not real. You want to be real. You love Tyler.

Where's Tyler?

Focus.

You think for what seems like hours. Write Nico in control or destroy the book and leave Tyler alone but happy.

You scream out in frustration.

You can't leave him.

"Sorry Tyler"

You write about how Nico is in control.

But You want to be real.

You write yourself a backstory. You write about a family you had and lost. You write about your first tooth that fell out and your first Christmas. Every detail. You have to make it as real as possible.

You don't forget about Josh. He already has a family but you give him more backstory.

The next thing you write about is you and the banditos in a safe house.

Before you finish you write in the book that no more changes can be added. Nothing that will be written in the book will have effect on the world.

You do this so Nico can't summon you back magically

You close your eyes.

Breathe in. Breathe out.

You open your eyes.

The room is filled with noise.

Tyler is standing in front of you.

"What happened?" Tyler asks

"I'm sorry, Tyler. Nico won"

"I know. I'm sorry. Are you okay?,

"Yes. I do have good news though"

"What is it?"

"Josh and I are no longer fictional characters" you smile at him

Tyler smiles wide and hugs you tightly.

"I'm so sorry. I wanted to do it but I thought about it after Nico stole the book"

"It's fine. It's done and I don't have to worry about it anymore"

"I thought you were going to destroy the book and sacrifice yourself" he says half joking.

"It felt like dying. You know? I didn't want to lose everything"

"I'm just glad you're here"

He pulls you closer for a kiss. You've longed for this moment. Sparks shoot through you. It felt real before, but it feels different now.
A good different.

The safe house does not make you feel safe. Even though the book isn't something to be worried about anymore, he does control the world.

Weather, animals, and everything else he controls.

He will make this world hell.

It will probably be night forever.

Anything can happen and you have no control over anything.

You walk over to Tyler and you wrap your arms around him.

"Sing to me" you ask him

He gives you a weird look.

"In front of everyone?" Tyler says nervously

"Why not?"

He thinks for a second.

"She's the tear in my heart I'm alive
She's the tear in my heart
I'm on fire
She's the tear in my heart
Take me higher
Than I've ever been"

(Tear in my Heart by Twenty One Pilots)

He sings the song to you while looking into your eyes. He makes you feel safe. In the worst of times he makes everything seem okay.

He finishes the song and everyone claps. You give him a kiss and you find a place around the safe house to sleep. You guys cuddle up in a corner and fall asleep. You have a feeling today was the last normal day.
