THIRTY TWO

"dallon leave me alonneee!" tyler whined hiding his flushed face. dallon shook his head and smacked tyler's butt. he squealed and playfully pushed him. him and dallon were getting ready for a new years eve get together at hayley's. it took a lot of convincing for tyler to get jenna to come but she is and tyler is very happy about that.

"how do I look?" tyler asked dallon and jenna, who was sitting on tyler's bed reading a magazine. he was wearing tight black pants with a yellow long sleeve shirt and josh's crybaby jacket.

"hot" dallon replied.

"you look like a tramp" jenna replied which made tyler frown. "that was mean" he mumbled.

dallon nodded his head. "yeah why are you even here if you're going to be a bitch and boring" he scoffed.

"i don't trust you with tyler" she said. dallon rolled his eyes. "he's literally 18 years old he doesn't need a babysitter" before an argument started tyler interjected. "you didn't have to come if you didn't want to. joshua is going to be there and he's not gonna let anything happen to me. plus it's just his friends and us." jenna ignored what he said and went back to reading her magazine.

dallon smiled. "speaking of joshua how was hawaii?" tyler's eyes lit up. "amazing. absolutely amazing! also look what he got me for christmas" tyler gushed as he pointed to the painting on the wall. dallon's eyes widened as he examined the painting.

"holy hell did he paint this?" tyler nodded gleaming brightly.

"you guys are so cute. did anything else happen in hawaii?" dallon smirked. tyler's face went red as he looked down. "we may have um slept together" he mumbled. jenna's eyes widened as she slammed her magazine down.

"you slept with him?" she seethed. tyler's facial expressions saddened as tears jumped to his eyes.

"why are you so angry at me?" he asked.

"he's changing you tyler! you would have never even thought about sex if it wasn't for him! and wearing these tight clothes is not going to make his friends like you. you don't fit in with them tyler. he's only going to hurt you." jenna snapped at the brunette.

dallon interrupted, "jenna stop it" he said and she shook her head. "no. why do you agree to this? you know just as well as I do that he's going to get hurt and you are allowing him to act dumb" she replied. tyler started to cry as he horrible thoughts started to fill his head. was he acting different? does joshua not love him?

"leave the poor kid alone! he is happy for the first time in his life and i'm not going to let myself or you ruin that. he is an adult. he can make his own decisions" dallon snapped at their friend. he looked over tyler and frowned as he saw tears streaming down his face.

"it's okay bambi" he reassured him. tyler nodded and fake smiled and wiping his face.

ryan walked in the bedroom holding a bottle of alcohol. "i brought some booze y'alllllll" he said. tyler went and grabbed it and took a huge swig ignoring the burning in his throat.

"tyler you don't drink" jenna said. tyler shrugged. "neither does joshua. might as well become the person you think i already am" he shot back taking another drink of the alcohol before handing it back. stumbling a little bit he walked towards the door.

"let's head over there"

they reached hayley's house and pulled into the driveway. they all got out, dallon helping tyler since he was a little tipsy.

"tyler are you sure you're okay? is it what jenna said? you know none of that is true. joshua really loves you and so do his friends" dallon reassured him. tyler forced a smile. "i know dally! it's new years eve I want to have fun" he lied. dallon believed it and they walked inside the house. the boys were playing dice on the floor and ashley and hayley were sitting on the couch. they called jenna over to them and tyler saw her walk over and they engaged in conversation.
