After dinner, they feed Amari and set her down in her crib for her to sleep comfortably. Tyler hovers over her crib, watching her sleep. Josh walks in and stands beside him, but he has his left shoulder behind Tyler.
"She is perfect isn't she?" Josh whispers in Tyler's ear, causing him to shiver from the feeling of his breath on the back of his neck.
"She really is," Tyler whispers back. He leans down and kisses her forehead, causing a small smile to appear on her face and her to stir a little. Tyler turns around, face to face with Josh now.
"Do you want to watch a movie?" Josh questions. Tyler notices him gulp, and his eyes flicker from his lips to his eyes. Tyler nods, doing the same thing Josh did.They move into the living room, Josh immediately sits down and pulls up hulu. Tyler sits down beside him on the couch.
"What do you want to watch?" Josh questions. Tyler thinks for a moment, "A scary movie, but maybe also a comedy. I don't know. You choose." Josh being himself decides on 'IT.' Tyler's eyes widen, "Dude, this movie is terrifying." Josh grins, "There might be some funny parts." Josh shrugs, causing Tyler to roll his eyes.Throughout the movie, of course, Tyler got scared at every jump-scare. Sometimes there would be light jumps from Tyler, and when they would happen, Josh would place his hand on Tyler's thigh as a way to comfort him. Tyler got chills every time he did it.
Tyler even jumped into Josh's chest. He cringes at how cliché it is, but deep down, he loved how Josh wrapped an arm around his torso and how the other one caressed the back of his head. He'd try and hide his blush while sitting back down normally.
Close to the end of the movie, Josh's phone rings. Tyler asks out of pure curiosity, "Who is it?" Josh hesitates, "Oh, just my mom. I'll be right back." Josh walks outside while he answers the phone. Tyler can't help but question the way he stuttered and hesitated when answering his question. Tyler feels almost as if it isn't Josh's mom that's on the phone. Tyler tries to keep comfortable, but after a few minutes of sitting in silence due to the movie being paused, he cannot take it anymore.
Tyler walks outside to where Josh is to check on him, and partly to see if he can catch who he's talking on the phone with. Right before the door closes with a thud, he hears Josh say, "It's my daughter, not yours. Butt out, seriously." Josh spins around, quickly telling the person he has to go and hangs up.
"Family drama?" Tyler questions. Josh sighs, "Something like that." Tyler frowns and pulls Josh into a hug. They seem to be doing this thing a lot, and they both think this is the most they've comforted each other in a while. Josh bends slightly and places his head on Tyler's chest. Tyler cradles his head and plays with his hair as a way to comfort him.
"I'll be here with you through it all, I promise. You're not alone. We've got this." Tyler states, placing his own head on top of Josh's.Written: 5/12-6/5/19 Words: 550
