Dallon's POV
• ☼ • ☼ • ☼ • ☼ •

I saw Josh, Tyler, and Ryan walk back in my room. "That was quick."

"He wouldn't let me help him." Josh sighed. "He kept freaking out."

"So, you didn't help him?" I asked. "Josh!"

"Hey! Josh tried his best! It's not his fault your boyfriend is scared of everything!" Tyler exclaimed.

"Shut the fuck up, Tyler!" I shouted. "I need to see Brendon right now."

"He needs to stay in the water." Ryan said gently. "Right? Or he dries out or something."

"Josh, Ryan, get me up." I said, trying to stand up on my own.

"OH SHIT!" Ryan shouted, running to grab me. "Dal, you can't be doing shit like that! You're gonna get hurt!"

"If I don't see my boyfriend it's gonna get worse for both of us." I said, leaning onto Ryan for support. "Josh, you can't be running back and forth taking care of us."

"I can, but it's not my favorite scenario." Josh said, running his hand through his hair.

"If you guys take me in there it'll be easier, you can help me and Brendon, and if I start bleeding everywhere then at least it'll be easier to clean." I said, hearing Ryan gag when I talked about blood. "Ooh, you're still sick...sorry, bud."

"It's fine, let's just get you in the bathroom." Ryan said. "Tyler, Josh, get your asses over here and help me!"

Josh grabbed one of my arms, Ryan doing the same. Tyler didn't really help except for not getting in the way. He opened the door though, which I guess was helpful.

"Baby?" I said, breaking out of Josh and Ryan's grip. "Bren, are you okay?"

Brendon's scared eyes widened. "D-Dally!" He threw his arms around me, pulling me close. "I-Im scared."

"I know you are, sweetie." I said, giving him a quick kiss. "I'm gonna stay here while Josh helps us."

Brendon whimpered again, inching away from us. "N-no." I put my arm around his shoulders reassuringly.

"Baby, this is Josh, he's gonna help us feel better, okay? I know his head looks weird cause it's yellow, but he's nice." I said, pointing to my friend.

Josh waved, smiling. "Hi, Brendon, I'm friends with Dallon."

Brendon waved back shyly, hiding his face behind my shoulder. "H-His hair is p-pretty."

"Bren thinks your hair is pretty, Josh." I said, winking at my friend.

"I think his tail is pretty." Josh said, slowly moving closer to us. "Hey, Brendon, can I help you feel better? I won't hurt you, I promise."

Brendon looked over at me, whimpering. "D-Dally?" I kissed his hand, trying to calm him down.

"I'll be here the whole time, and if he hurts you then you can splash him." I said, making my boyfriend smile a little.

"O-okay." He said, letting Josh have access to his tail. "D-dont hurt m-me."

"I won't, Brendon, don't worry." Josh said, looking over the long red tail.

I held Brendon's hand, as he winced a few times. "It's okay, you're okay, I love you." I kept whispering to him, knowing that he was terrified.

"Well, Brendon, I think your tail is just sore." Josh said after a few minutes. "Try not to use it for a while."
