"what happened?" josh's voice is so very meek, almost cracking at the sight of the other's condition. his fingers still delicately touch tyler's tan skin. neither say a word. 

the melancholy boy closes his eyes while the shorter boy strokes his cheek. tyler hums the tune to whatever waltz, since he doesn't know the song or the words. this causes josh to sputter a little flicker of a smile. "it's not that bad, i-" he pauses.

"i get it, you don't wanna talk about it." tyler nods and sits down on josh's petite bed. "'somber'"

"what?"

"it's called somber," josh sighs in contentment. 

"who is it by then? it's so beautiful i-"

"me- i wrote- i wrote it," he blushes. "aw joshie, it's the most beautiful thing i've ever heard in my life," tyler smiles, strong but faint.

his senses overpower him, and he starts to drift to sleep again. josh holds him and coddles him into a deep slumber.

"sweet dreams, ty."

when josh wakes up, tyler is gone, he sees a note by his nightstand.

good morning joshie! sorry i left without a word, i didn't want my mom to worry about me.

hope you slept well! i bought you some new poppy seeds x

-tyler
xoxo you have a cute snore

josh flushes as he reads the note, his heart feels warm and happy. he didn't realize he is smiling.

he goes out to his garden, his bluebird flutters near him as josh waters his blueberry bushes.

the trees' leaves blow in the wind, and the boy feels contented for now.

later that day, tyler again makes him leave his comfortable home. josh's favorite overalls are on over his favorite yellow shirt. his smile is as bright as the sun, and tyler is staring at him in awe.

"you're so pretty yknow that, love?"

the other hides his face, "no-no way."
"your genes don't lie, babes."

"genes?" josh asks, which makes the other boy laugh. "nothin'."

"please show me more of you dancing," tyler begs him. it makes him happy. he hates anyone else doing it, but josh has such a passion and grace.

"maybe."

"yes?"

"if um-"

josh's eyes blink slow as he stares into the chocolate galaxy of tyler's eyes. his hands delicately graze the back of his neck. "nevermind." but they don't move. tyler's hands eventually go to the boy's hips. josh's brearhing becomes rough and irregular, he looks down because the gaze is so strong.

"you're special. you give me purpose, a reason to wake up, a-" josh looks at him.

"fuck, josh, you're breathtaking."

josh leans closer to him. he doesn't say anything about the curse the other said. he doesn't flinch, he doesn't even speak. he just kisses tyler.

and tyler kisses back.
