Troye
I sometimes think about the moment before it happened… You may think it’s not healthy to replay every moment in my head like it was just yesterday. You may think that it’s unhealthy that I still remember this much. And believe me I tried to shut it out but I realized I never want to forget anything. Ever.
10 Years earlier
I look over at my phone and realize I’ve been sitting on my laptop for over four hours. It’s now two in the morning. Tumblr was just so addicting. Every night when I find myself in this same position it always reminds me of laptop time with Tyler. This thought brings a smile to my face every time, but I feel the corners off my mouth slowly lower as I remember that I hadn’t actually seen Tyler in over 3 months. I missed my best friend. No one compared to how much Tyler made me smile and laugh. Of course we try and talk everyday, but both or our careers have been growing so much lately, it’s hard to get time to do anything. I would do anything to go back to those days where we would wake up with no agenda and could just sit on tumblr all day.
…..That reminds me…. I hadn’t heard from Tyler all day. I wondered what he had been up to. I go to grab my phone to call him, when randomly my phone starts ringing with a call from Zoe.
“Hey Zoeeeee!”
All I can hear is sobbing.
“Zoe? Zoe? What’s wrong?”
In between wails I try to make out some words.
“…..troye…..i’m…..s-s-sorry…i….just…wanted…you…to…hear…from…me”
“Hear what Zoe? What’s going on?”
It takes another couple minutes before Zoe’s breathing evens out so I can at least understand her better.
“Troye, please please just promise me you won’t go on social media until I call you again. And I mean it. Nothing. Please please Troye, just trust me.”
Her voice cracked on the last sentence and suddenly the line goes dead.
What the hell just happened. Is she having a panic attack? Should I call Alfie? And what does she mean to not go on social media…..I can’t just not go on. I think this must be some prank or something…even though she did sound pretty broken up. I decide it must be some prank and I log on to Twitter to see what sort of joke they were playing on me. My feed pops up and the first thing I see is a picture of me and Tyler. Aw the troyler shippers must be going hard tonight. I scroll down, and I see a post that stops me dead in my tracks.
“I’m crying. I don’t think I’ll ever stop. You were my biggest idol. RIP Tyler Oakley, you’ll be missed <3”
That can’t be true. I continue scrolling down.
“Your legacy will carry on forever. Your people love you forever and always. Rest in paradise Tyler Oakley”
No. No.
“Youtube sensation, Tyler Oakley, dies in a car accident in LA. Fans, family and friends are heartbroken.”
……..then I see posts from fellow youtubers
Grace: “Tyler was such a light in everyone’s life. Youtube will never be the same without him. RIP”
Marcus: “I always thought myler was real. We love you Tyler. RIP”
