Fractured reality

Chapter 2

I smother a sigh as I look at Steve and Ty who'd let us stay with him. Steve was explaining everything and I was looking at my hand that Steve had touched. I looked at his hand then heard a question that was directed towards me.
"Is your friend mute?"
"No he just doesn't like to talk"
"What's the point of talking if theirs no one to listen..."
Steve looks at me deep into my eyes and I looked at the ground. I felt a hand on the small of my back. Steve. He rubbed my back gently with his nails. I looked at him. It's ok his expression seemed to say. I sighed and looked at my wrists. The scars were more apparent now. Still no one noticed. I stayed quiet but not for the reason I'd said. I stayed quiet for no one would listen. Nobody cared if I lived or died. Hell, if I'd committed suicide in front of everyone they'd be glad I was gone. I looked up as I heard steps. If there was any advantage to my stature of silence it was I could hear acutely. A man judging by the way he walked. Probably taller than Ty maybe about the same size as Steve. I was a bit taller than Steve.
As I'd predicted there was a knock at the door. Ty hopped up and walked over to the door. He opened it and after a second a man as tall as Steve with curly brown hair hugged Ty. Ty smiled and hugged the man then we saw why he was crying softly. The man wore a camouflage suit. He'd been in the army.
"Ty who's this?"
"Well Adam this is Steve and this is Hero"
"Hi"
"Sup"
I once again stayed quiet. It was unnatural for me to say more than one or two sentences at a time. I just observed them both and managed a fake smile. Ty was obviously in love with this man. I was happy for them when they kissed. Steve gently hugged me in the middle of my back. A friendly hug. I sighed softly and hugged him back.
"I need to talk to you later at night you and me can offer to share a room I don't think me sleeping in the same bed as you is a problem," Steve whispered into my ear. I nodded slightly.
"Adam are you willing to share a room with me"
"Me and Steve could share"
"You'd be willing to?"
"Yeah,"
