Happy cute chapters are my favorite
Wait to start the song.

Josh woke up to a very clingy Tyler. He was literally clinging to him as he slept peacefully. Josh looked at his face and smiled. He softly caressed Tyler's face and thought about him. He's never met anyone like Tyler before. Someone so kind and generous but also someone who wouldn't take no shit from anyone. He liked the way Tyler dressed when he was home. He liked the way Tyler smiled or laughed when he was embarrassed. He liked the way Tyler pouted when Josh would call him princess or sweetheart. He liked Tyler. He liked Tyler a lot. Josh looked over to Tyler's clock and saw that it was already 7:15. He softly shook Tyler awake, giving him soft cheek kisses as he did. Tyler's eyes fluttered open and immediately shut.

"No, Ty we got school." Josh said.

Tyler pulled the blanket over his head and whined. God he was such a baby when it comes to waking up in the morning. Josh rolled his eyes and pulled the blanket off Tyler's head. Tyler glared at Josh and covered his face with his hands. Josh rolled his eyes and smiled. He pulled Tyler's hands off his face and looked at him.

"What's the matter?" He asked.

"I'm maybe scared about going to school today." Tyler said.

"Why?" He asked.

"I've never really had an official boyfriend, so it's new for me. I also am nervous about what people might say about us. Especially the group of people i hang out with." Tyler explained.

Josh understood. He would have to face Debby's reaction and his friend's reactions too. Now anxiety was settling in but, he could get through the day. Having Tyler around made it more comfortable for him. Josh looked back at Tyler and leaned in to give him a soft kiss on his lips. Tyler sighed contently when Josh pulled away. Man was Josh whipped for him.

"How about we get ready, and make it through the day. If today is horrible, i'll come back here with you and cuddle you while we watch whatever cheesy love sick movie you want. If today is a good day and you're smiling and laughing, i'll still come back here and cuddle you but, only after you help with my Physics homework." He said.

Tyler just smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek, "Fine, let's go get ready."

Start the song. It's Out Of My League by Fitz and The Tantrums

When they both were ready, they both walked down the stairs and out the front door. Luckily Josh didn't have to say hi to Tyler's mom or brother.

"Are we really taking your bike again?" Tyler asked.

"Princess, it's a motorcycle. You'll be fine if you hold on tight, okay?" Josh said, putting on his helmet.

Tyler glared at him and got on the motorcycle, wrapping his arms around Josh's waist. Josh smiled and blushed wildly but again Tyler couldn't tell. Even Tyler's touch made Josh's heart all giddy.

"I hate when you call me princess, it makes me blush." Tyler said.

Josh smirked as he revved his motorcycle. He took off pretty quickly, feeling Tyler's arms tighten around him. He suddenly felt Tyler's head lean against his back. Josh smiled again, feeling like he was a safe place for Tyler. He finally pulled up to the school and parked his motorcycle right in the front. Once he took of his helmet, everyone who was walking into the building just stared at him and Tyler. Tyler let go of Josh, making sure his back pack was still on him and got off the motorcycle.

Josh got off as well, grabbing Tyler's hand immediately. He could tell that Tyler was already panicking by the way he was gripping Josh's hand. People just stared as they walked into the school building. People including, Josh's friends and Tyler's friends. Josh walked Tyler to his locker, and waited for him to open it.

"People are staring." Tyler said, opening his locker and putting books into it.

"I know but, you'll be okay. Besides, you have English with me first so, you'll sit next to me and I'll hold your hand and possibly tell you cute things in your ear." Josh said with a smirk.

"God, you still manage to be annoying. How are you like this? How am I dating you?" Tyler questioned.

Josh knew it was all fun and harmless teasing, "Guess you're into bad guys who have anger management issues."

"You're right, totally my type." Tyler said, closing his locker.

Josh laughed as he took Tyler's empty hand immediately. Tyler blushed as they both walked into English class, hand in hand. When they got in, all eyes were on them. Whispers were being heard throughout the classroom. When Josh looked at one person who was whispering, he got angry.

"Hey, dipshit!" He yelled.

The guy turned around slowly and looked right up at Josh. Josh glared at him angrily. The guy looked terrified.

"Got anything to say?" Josh growled.

"N-no." The guy said nervously

"Good. That goes for the rest of you. Fuck with me or Tyler and i'll make sure to fucking come for you." Josh said.

He pulled Tyler towards two desks that were in the back of the class room. People began to mind their own business once they sat down. Tyler pushed his desk next to Josh's and clung to his arm. Josh could practically feel Tyler's anxiety through his skin. Josh kissed Tyler's forehead and let him lean his head on his shoulder. When Jenna, Ashley, and Brad walked in, they stopped and looked at Josh. Jenna was the first to walk over and sit on the opposite side of him, smiling wide. Ashley and Brad sat in front of them and turn their desks around to face both of them.

"You finally found yourself a boyfriend, congrats!" Brad said sarcastically.

"Brad, leave him alone. I think it's adorable!" Jenna said

"Adorably sickening, now Josh won't be my single buddy anymore." Ashley sighed.

Josh laughed, "I'm glad you're all happy for me but, be nice to Tyler."

"Dude, Tyler and I are basically best friends. Ever since the carnival, i knew he was the right one."

Tyler was too shy to say a word to anyone but, he did look up at Josh and smiled at him softly. Josh was really happy to be holding Tyler's hand at this very moment. He was also happy to call Tyler his.

"Did Debby see you guys?" Jenna asked

Josh mentally cursed himself when Debby was brought up. He forgot to tell Tyler about her.

"Who is Debby?" Tyler asked.

"An ex. I broke up with her this summer because our relationship was toxic. You don't have to worry about her though." Josh said.

Tyler softly hummed and started paying attention to the class. Josh tried to pay attention but he was mainly focusing on Tyler. Josh really did want whatever he had with Tyler, to last. Maybe it was perfect. Maybe he was just being a romantic but, he would never hurt Tyler at all.
