Never Lose Your Flames (Tyler Carter x Reader)

Everythings An Illusion

Michael rested on his bed, under his red blanket. his chest rising up and down on each breath.
I gripped his hand tightly and tyler walked in.

"Do you think he'll be okay before warped tour starts?" He asked, concerned.

"He should" I say quietly.

I let go of his hand and it slowly falls to his side. a tear falls from my eye and drips onto the carpeted floor. I see AJ standing by the door and he pulls me into a tight hug. I quietly sob into his chest while he strokes my hair to calm me down.

I let go and I feel numb. I shuffle up to my room and drop myself hard onto my bed. I cry myself to sleep..

--------
Tyler's POV

I hear Addison crying. I slowly walk into her room and she's asleep.

I softly sing a song to her. The song that got stuck in my head recently, move along by all American rejects.

I notice that my eyes feel droopy. I lay next to Addison and say to myself "I'll just rest here for a while". I catch myself in the middle of the night cuddling with her. it...feels right.

----------
Addison's POV

I hear someone humming a song. he shifts and turns around to face me. I look at him and see a shirtless tyler. "oh my god" I say.

"What" he chuckles.

"Is Michael okay?!" I run out of the room quickly and see Michael sipping a cup of coffee, resting his bandages arm in his pocket.

I run, almost tripping to go hug Michael.

"MICHAEL!!!" I scream. I tackle him into the sofa.

He chokes on his coffee and laughs. "ADDISON!!"

I sigh, knowing that my brother is okay. I continue hugging him and I shut my eyes and feel a smile grow on my face.

Josh and Ty grabbed me by the waist and shoulders, trying to hoist me away from Michael as they notice he's having trouble to breathe.

Michael laughs as I continue to grip his shirt, trying to hold on. I kick and aim for Ty's crotch. mission accomplished. Ty lunges back and shouts.

"What the fuuuuckkkkkk" he groans. sky takes a turn and they succeeded. I have a sad puppy face on and Michael stands up.

"Go change, you little shit. we're going somewhere." he says.

I stand up and bump into tyler.

"Woah there, calm down" he laughs.

"Shut up" I playfully smack his arm.

We all run to our rooms to get dressed.
I decide to wear a bring me the horizon shirt and skinny jeans. I put on my black vans and wait on the sofa.

Tyler walks down wearing a red button up shirt and black skinnies.

"Have any idea where we're going?" I ask, looking up as tyler buttons his shirt.

"Nope" he simply answers.

As we ran into the car, I sat in the passenger seat while Michael drove.

"Where is we going?" Tyler said, being a sass queen.

"Somewhere special" he answered with a slight smirk.

I looked out the window and started to remember some things.

"Why is this familiar?" I asked Michael.

"Remember we ran away from our 'parents' and went here?" Michael asked.

My eyes shot wide open and I gasped. I took off my seatbelt and smiled.

"Michael!!" I shouted. I opened the window and stuck my head out.

In the past.....

I stood up from my bed, I heard a loud shatter. "what the hell?" I quietly say to myself. Mu father screams at the top of his lungs "get the fuck out!!!"

I hear someone run up the stairs, mumbling curse words.

My door burst open and the light flared on. "Addi, pack your things, we are leaving this hellhole" I nod, not saying anything. my throat hurt from the previous night. I screamed the loudest I ever have. my parents argued that I was a worthless little fuck. And I stood up for myself, I snapped.

I felt tears starting burn. I quickly threw all my clothes, valuables, and other things into duffel bags.

I grab the photo of my family when I was younger. We looked happy, normal. look at us now..

Michael grabbed my hand and we ran into the car. the tires screeched and we drove over to the city, where we lived in a small apartment..

PRESENT DAY..

"Why here?." I ask, my smile fading.

"This is where we met tyler. when we started the band" he smiled.

"It's 3 AM guys" josh shouts from the back.

We drove into the side of a field. Michael got out of the car and ran into the field and plopped down on the dirt.

Everyone else raced to where Michael was.

"This. was where we'd go when we were having bad days" I said, feeling my smile grow.

"Yeah" Michael said, laying down and looking at the stars.

I looked up and noticed tyler looking at me. I looked back at him and he looked down and chuckled.

"What?" I ask, turning red.

"You look beautiful at night" he smiled, twiddling his fingers.

"Thanks" I couldn't help but smile.

Soon, we were all laying down. Everyone was asleep. except for me and tyler.

I shivered and tyler looked at me. he stood up and grabbed my arm. "you're cold. let's go" I looked up and he smiled.

We ran and entered the car. tyler turned the heat on and stared at me.

I felt like we needed some music. I turned on my phone and went into my music. I downloaded all of issues albums. Late was one of my favorites. I pressed the volume button and Late was blasting.

We both sat criss-cross, facing each other.

"Addison..can I tell you something?" He asked, he rubbed the back of his neck.

"yeah" I smiled.

"You're the most beautiful person I've ever met" he inched his way closer to me and softly kissed my lips.

His breath smelled like mint. as he pulled away, he lustfully looked into my eyes. I grabbed him by his shirt and pulled him closer, kissing him deeply.

He laid on top of me, moving his lips and tongue with mine. I pushed him off slowly and smirked. "I'm tired" I yawned. He grabbed me and pulled my into a sleeping position.
