Tyler POV

I looked at Troye quizzically. I guess now I know it, he definitely doesn't like me.
"Oh er y-yeah I guess."
I could feel the tears building up in my eyes, I looked away about to turn and walk when I felt his hand gingerly grab my arm.
"Ty.....?"
I still refused to look up.
"Tyler what's wrong."
That was until his act slipped, why was he acting ? All emotion suddenly fled onto his features.
"Tyler look at me....please"
His voice was cracking but not as bad had mine had been, I opened my mouth the reply but nothing happened.
"Hey bo- am I interrupting something ?"
"Yes-"
"No."
I looked up at Karli, glaring the tears gone and only anger pulsing through my veins. I wriggled my arm out of Troyes grip.
"You weren't interrupting anything, everything's great."
"Yeah- looks like Ty has a boyfriend now any ways. You should talk about it, have fucking fun."
He stormed off towards the stairs and ran up them into his room I caught sight of a tear falling down his face and before I could stop to think about how irrational I was acting I was out of the door with my bag, still in sweats and a baggy top. Running into my car before finally breaking down into tears. I looked up to his window with years clouding my vision. He looked at me and walked away.
What's happening with us ?
Why was everything breaking down ?
I sat there crying for god knows how long. I didn't care anymore. I picked up my phone and dialled the number i had memorised.
"Hey I was just wondering... But er are you free on Monday night ?"

Troye POV

I looked out of my window with tears blurring my vision as I watched Tyler jump into his car and slam the door. I walked back to my bed and cried silently. Not long after Karli walked into my room and walked straight to the window.
"He's still there you know. It's not too late to tell him how you feel."
I looked at her, debating listening to her and just going and telling him. Yeah I'll do it.
I ran out of my room slipping on my toms and ran to his car, his back was turned to me and before I could say a word I heard his voice.
"Hey I was just wondering... But er are you free on Monday night ?"
A choked sob escaped my lips before I could stop it. Tyler turned around and stared at me guilt showering his features.
"Sounds great, I will see you there. Bye."
He dropped the phone and stepped out of the car. His face was red, his eyes bloodshot. He ran into my arms quickly. I wrapped them around him loosely and kept crying.
"You heard didn't you..."
I nodded slowly.
"Why does it bother you Troye ? You know me having a b-boyfriend."
Now was my time here I go.
"Because I- I don't want you to get hurt like I did!"
The words came out jumbled and a downright mess. I'm an idiot.
"Come on, let's go back in its cold out here."
"Ty, your phone, Callob might message you...."
He looked back at it then at me picking it up and putting it in his pocket.
"So, I'm with you. Why would it matter as much as cheering up my baby blue ?"
I smiled weakly before grabbing his hand and walking into the house without answering him, thankfully both of us only sniffling. I ran up to my room leaving him in the sitting room and grabbed some movies. Surprised to find Karli still there.
"You are an idiot you know that right ?"
I nodded slowly.
She picked up her phone and text someone I instantly heard Tyler's phone ding downstairs.
"Karli what the hell did you just text him ?!"
"That you are both idiots. You don't even realise how the other feels."
I stared at her my mouth agape when did this persona take over ?!
"You. Did. What ?!"
She rolled her eyes and walked out of the room without another word.

Karli POV

I saw Tyler's caller ID pop up on my phone about 30 seconds after troye had ran out of the room. I picked up the phone and held it to my ear.
"Hey I was just wondering... But er are you free on Monday night ?"
"Tyler why are you calling me now ? Wait are you seriously pretending I'm him ?"
I giggled quietly at the scheme he had going on. I looked out of the window and watched troye stop behind him.
"He heard you."
He sighed and turned around I could practically see how guilty he looked.
"If you are going o do this properly say something as if he's said that he wants to meet you."
"Sounds great I will see you there. Bye."
He got out of the car and hugged troye leaving his phone face down so that I could hear it.
"You heard didn't you..."
I walked away from the window so I could only hear him. Troye was crying, I could hear it.
"Why does it bother you Troye ? You know me having a b-boyfriend"
I looked down wondering if he would tell him, come on troye it's your chance and Tyler wants to know! He's desperate to know!
"Because I- I don't want you to get hurt like I did!"
I sighed, quietly to make sure troye didn't hear it. He's an absolute douche.
"Come on, let's go back in its cold out here."
"Ty, your phone, Callob might message you...."
Now he knows how Tyler felt with Adam, I guess.
"So, I'm with you. Why would it matter as much as cheering up my baby blue ?"
The call ended and I heard them walk inside. Troye ran up and walked in looking at me, surprise shown on his face although you could barley tell from all the crying.
"You are an idiot you know that right ?"
I watched him nod. Picking up my phone and texting Tyler. Trying not to laugh when I heard his phone go off downstairs and troye looking straight at me like he had seen a ghost.
"Karli what the hell did you just text him ?!"
"That you are both idiots. You don't even realise how the other feels."
"You. Did. What ?!"
His voice was cold and his stare was brutal, oh if looks could kill. I rolled my eyes at him and walked out without saying another word to him.
