"You like the color yellow?" Joshua asks holding one of Tyler's yellow pillows.

They ended up laying down after the third song not wanting to sit throughout the entire time with just no commentary.

Joshua was the first to lay down, Tyler following suit, though keeping his distance of course.

Tyler turns towards Joshua and sees that he's already looking at him, expecting a nod or a shake of a head, because that's how Tyler communicates until further notice.

His eyes are a lot lighter than his dull brown eyes.

He nods smiling softly, he loves yellow.

Joshua recuperates the smile and says "cool" and thinks of another question.

Tyler wants to ask him what his favorite color is but he doesn't, not yet.

"Um, you like Oreos?"

This makes Tyler giggles softly and it makes Joshua's heart burst with tenderness as he is proud for making the boy laugh, he wants to continue making him laugh.

After Tyler is done giggling he nods smiling.

Joshua has grown to love seeing Tyler smile even if he's only seen it twice.

"Same" Joshua smiles as well.

After they finished the album Joshua had to go back home so Tyler walked him out and waved him goodbye.

"I hope we hangout again," Joshua says before Tyler closes the door.

Joshua doesn't get to see Tyler's nod before he goes.

Even though at first Tyler was scared out of his mind, him hanging out with Joshua today made him realize he wasn't that bad.

And he might actually be comfortable getting to know him more and actually talking to him.

It's different with Joshua because it seems like he wants to get to know Tyler too and that makes Tyler's heart warm, knowing Joshua doesn't feel forced to be friends with him, he wants to be friends with Tyler.

Even though he would never ever, ever! Admit it to his mom but he's thankful she invited Joshua over.

And it made his heart skip a beat when Joshua said he wanted to hangout again.

Next time maybe he will talk to him.

~*~

The next day Tyler was actually looking forward to see if Joshua would join him in he library during lunch, but he didn't.

He was sorta disappointed.

But it may just be that Joshua had to serve his detention in the room this time but he really wanted to see him.

Even if he still wasn't brave enough to start a normal conversation with.

Ugh gosh why can't he just talk?! Why does he have to be so shyyy?!! Like Joshua probably thinks he's weird and won't want to be friends with him.

Tyler shakes off those thoughts before he starts getting more insecure.

He then later gets up to use the bathroom and as he's about to turn the corner he sees Joshua with a kid he's never seen before.

It makes him jump a little in place but he's not surprised seeing Joshua start to shove the other kid, aggressively, just like what happened last time.

Suddenly Tyler realized why he doesn't really trust Joshua yet, because of his fear that one day he'll lose his temper on Tyler and hurt him.

The shoving gets more intense and when Joshua and the other kid are about to throw fists a teacher comes out and Joshua runs the other.

Tyler's way.

Tyler is frozen and Joshua didn't notice him until he collided with him.

Sending Tyler to the ground.

"Ugh" Tyler squeaks out.

It knocked the air out of his lungs and now he's hurt with Joshua on top of him.

Great.
