tyler didn't even have to look. he knew who that voice belonged to. the voice he used to love waking up to in the morning. the voice that always used to sing softly to his favorite songs because he's too shy to sing any louder. yeah, that voice. the one that always sent him into a dreamy daze about how much he wanted to hear that voice.

the voice that broke his heart.

tyler hid his face in his knees as the rest of the group looked at him with sad eyes.

"tyler...i-" josh started, but brendon cut him off with a shake of his head.

"tyler, i was talking to josh before we came and..." brendon knelt down beside the boy. god even just hearing his name hurt. "i think you want to hear this."

the boy looked up and met brendon's hopeful eyes before slowly shaking his head, tears filling his eyes again.

"i-i can't," he whispered.

"you can, ty. i know you can, all you have to do is listen. you don't have to say anything. just please... listen to him."

tyler bit his lip nervously and looked up at ryan who nodded encouragingly and smiled slightly.

he looked back to brendon, refusing to look at his ex-lover.

"o-ok. f-fine."
