Captured- Kidnapped by Tyler Joseph

Chapter 23

(Josh's POV)

Finally arriving home, the kitten was fast asleep in one of my arms. 

I ran across the yard, guarding the cat from the rain, and quickly went inside. 

Tyler was sulking on the couch, pen in hand, quietly talking to himself.

 He's obviously in a  bad mood now that I told him about my feelings. 

I feel terrible about the way that I talked to him, I didn't mean to hurt him and get so defensive.

 "H-hey Tyler." His hand froze for a moment, but he didn't look up.

 "Hey." He replied dully, then continued writing. 

I started to walk away, "What's the cat for?" He asked, I spun around and he was looking at me, eyes tired and sunken.

 I studied him for a moment before answering. His skin was more pale than usual, his hair was still matted from the blood that he had yet to wash off.

 "It's for Y/N. Anyways listen Tyler, I'm sorry about earlier. I didn't mean to talk to you like that, I was just mad and-" "No It's okay. You were right. You're better for her, I hurt her too much, I put her in danger." 

Then we both went silent. "I-I'm gonna go give this to Y/N, I'll be right back." I quickly walked up to her room, the door was unlocked so I just opened it and went inside. 

She wasn't on the bed, or anywhere to be spotted in the room. "Y/N?" I called quietly. I tiptoed over to the bathroom door, to find it locked.

 I knocked, "Y/N?" No answer. I slowly slipped down to the floor and looked under the door. "Uh, Y/N? Not trying to be a pervert bu-" I heard something make a *ching* noise against the floor. Metal. I immediately stood up.

 "Y/N, open the door. Now!" I started pounding on the door. "Go Away." Her scratched voice called to me. 

She sounded weak, and like she had been crying. "Y/N please, please! Open the door!" Tears were welling in my eyes, I continued banging on the door. 

It was no use she was probably too weak to open the it anyways. I frantically searched around the room. 

My credit card. I quickly rummaged through the drawer beside the bed, finding an old credit card I had put there a few months ago. 

I grabbed it and sprinted back to the door, shoving it between the knob's lock and the wall. After a few seconds of wiggling, the door unlocked, I pushed it open and fell to my knees in a small puddle of blood that surrounded Y/N. 

"TYLERRRRR! PLEASE, TYLER GET IN HERE!" I screamed my lungs out, pulling her head into my lap, I held her and rocked her slowly. 

She had fresh gashes up and down her left arm, but luckily they didn't seem very deep. I covered as many of her wounds as I could with my sleeve, pressing down hard.

 "Y/N, please wake up. Wake up!" I cried."Y/N??" Tyler came in behind me, shaking with panic. I looked up at him, "She's okay, she hasn't lost near enough blood to kill her, she probably just passed out from the pain. As long as we get her bandaged, she'll be fine." Or at least that's what I told myself. 

(Tyler's POV)

"I'm gonna go get something to stop the bleeding , just hold her head up." Josh instructed me. "O-Okay." He darted out of the room, presumably to the kitchen. I looked down at YN. 

This was all my fault, I kidnapped her, I hit her, I... almost raped her. I began weeping uncontrollably, "Im so sorry Y/N, Im so sorry!" I rocked her back and forth, getting my salty tears on her.

 My eyes began to burn, but not from my crying. 

My head tilted back involuntarily, my pupils rolling into the back of my head. "No, not now, please! Please!" I begged with myself, with Blurry, but it was too late. 

"Let me out, Tyler! You know I only put your darkest, deepest desires into action!" My head was screaming at me, HE was screaming at me. 

"No, No, stop, stop!" I was gripping my hair, trying to pull out the demon that rested inside my mind. "Stay out of my head, go away!" 

I had to get him out, I started bashing my head against the wall frantically. "Oh Tyler, I AM your head, boy! Come on... Wouldn't it only be fair to kill her? Let's do it while Josh is away!

 He'll never notice a few extra cuts, come one Tyler!" I couldn't hear anything around me, the world was silent. 

The voice in my head was overriding every other sound, every other thought, it was all I could focus on. 

"You know it Tyler, if she survives, Josh is going to take her from you! He's in love with her, remember?" My eyes were rolling around in my skull. "You're right, if she lives..." I whispered. "You love her, you took her, not Josh."

I looked down at Y/N, lying motionlessly on the floor.

"How unfair would it be, after all the trouble you've been through, if Josh stole her from you?"

"Josh hates you, he wants to hurt you by taking Y/N away."

"No! Stop! Stop!"

I started sobbing uncontrollably, grabbing at my face, my hair, anything to make me snap out of this trance.

"Kill her Tyler! Kill her!"

I slammed my head against the mirror, until it shattered, sending glass pieces all over the floor. 

Stammering backwards, I tripped over Y/N's legs and crashed to the floor. Everything went silent for a moment.

 I lay where I fell on the ground next to Y/N, I looked at her beautiful, young face, and her soft lips, and the next moment I was overtaken by a rush of pictures and sounds. 

There was me taking her, her tied up in ropes on my basement floor, her struggling under my weight on her bed, her dead cat, her nearly lifeless body after the car accident, and her laying here bloody on the floor.

 Her screams busted my eardrums, blood poured down the side of my face and down my chin. I curled into a ball and covered my ears with my hands, "STOP STOP STOP STOP IT! GET OUT OF MY HEAD! LEAVE ME ALONE!" My throat felt like I had swallowed razor blades, I screamed as loud as I could. Shaking, twitching, reliving the past over and over again.

But suddenly, everything fell quiet. The blood from my ears was nonexistent, the I now only saw the bathroom I was laying in. I rolled back over to look at Y/N again.

"Kill her, and all these thoughts will disappear, just like she will."

I slid my hand across the floor, until it touched something long and cold.

I pushed myself into a sitting position against the wall next to her, and gazed down longingly at the glass my fingers held.

I lovingly looked down at Y/N, I admired everything about her for the last time.

"Im so sorry I hurt you. All I wanted was to love you, and for you to love me, but I kept pushing you away. Im broken, Y/N, and I broke you too. This is for your own good, I promise. Goodbye, Y/N"
