Troye POV

As soon as Tyler mentioned the barn I was been pretty confused. We almost kissed that day, but it's one of his favourite memories. That thought led me to others, what about Callob ?
Does Tyler like me ?
Is he just confused ?
Why did he choose that memory ?
Was it just to capture my reaction ?
I was stolen from my thoughts when a hand hit me across the back of my head.
"Wha-"
"I asked you a question ocean."
I looked up at Nate shyly.
"Sorry..."
"Thinking about him again aren't you ?"
I looked down again.
"I can't get him out of my head. Everything leads to him. Even eating! I will eat something and remember how much nicer it seemed when he made it, or how cute he looked when he had to stand on his tiptoes to reach the top self of the fridge or when he had to climb onto the counter when he needed things from the top cupboards."
I heard him sigh loudly as I buried my head in my hands, I'm not surprised actually. I'm pathetic and need to grow up, just like he had told me too. We still haven't spoken since he brought up the barn. That was two weeks ago.
"Don't worry about it, I don't think him and Callob is going to last much longer."
I looked at him in confusion but he didn't answer just looking above my head to someone who had just entered the house.
"Hello Tyler."
"H-hi Nate..."
I sat there in silence wondering what I should do, he hasn't attempted to talk to me, should I talk to him ?
"Tyler you are crying."
"Wha- no I'm n-"
I turned around just fast enough to see him rub his hands on his face.
"Oh- yeah I guess I am..."
I still didn't speak.
"Why are you crying ?"
"I- I DON'T KNOW!"
He laughed at himself whilst wiping the tears away. I turned back around and say back against the sofa.
"Tyler come sit."
I felt him patting the sofa on the space near us but I wasn't sure where.
"I-"
"Come on we don't bite, right Ocean ?"
He laughed lightly and hit me in the arm softly.
"Yeah, right."
I was surprised at how well I managed to keep my emotions locked up. Somehow I was doing okay at it though, I felt Nate nudging me in the side. I looked up at him with sad eyes and glanced at the sympathetic pair looking back at me. I was looking just long enough to watch him mouth 'Troye please try' before I looked away and cuddled into his side and let my head fall into his neck, only then did I let my emotions go letting the frown appear on my face and tears fall freely from my eyes.
"Troye you are soaking my shirt."
"Don't be so gay forward Nathaniel."
He gasped at me and I let my head rise as I smirked at him.
"I'm very straight forward!"
"Nah you're very bisexual forward actually."
He hit me in the chest and pushed me off the sofa onto the floor as I started to giggle at him.
"I am straight thank you very much!"
"What's wrong with not being ?"
I faked offence quickly.
"Shut up nothing you know that."
I smiled after that getting back up and wiping my eyes and freeing my face from the tears. I heard two people clearing their throats from behind me and I turned my head smiling when I saw Phan.
"Hey boys."
"Hey you's."
I smiled at Dan and looked at Phil after noticing how he didn't speak up. Dan nudged his side and he looked up.
"Wha ?"
"You zoned out idiot!"
He smiled sheepishly at us all.
"Hello Troye, Natey, Ty."
We all smiled back at him and I got up to go hug them but was dragged back down as soon as I started to rise by Nate.
"So Tyler what brought you round ?"
"I er-"
"MUNCHKIN!!!!!! I HAVEN'T SEEN YOU IN FOREVER!!!"
He was cut off abruptly by Karli screaming loudly.
"KAR!"
He got up and ran to her and hugged her instantly. I saw her smiling at me warmly and keeping her eyes soft.
"How come you came over ?"
"I missed you's...."
My eyes darted straight to his face after that.
"God doofus you looked so shocked that Tyler missed us."
"Not that he missed you..."
Tyler looked at me with pleading eyes and Karli just glared.
"Don't be such an ass Troye he obviously missed you! I get it, you aren't on best terms at the minute but don't be such an ass maybe he came to talk to you!"
"I actually came to apologise, babe please!"
I looked into his eyes and without thinking i scurried off of the sofa and ran to him. I stopped right in front of him not sure what to do.
"I guess I missed you too...."
He smiled then, his teeth showing and his eyes shining. I felt his strong arms pull me against him and I felt my body relaxing automatically under his touch and wrapped my arms around him. The whole room filled with the word 'finally' as all four of them sighed. We both giggled at that but of course because I'm clumsy I slipped and fell to the floor taking him down with me, consequently having his short little ass fall on top of me. We both blushed at that.
"What the fuck is going on ? Tyler what's this ?"
Everyone turned their heads towards the door at the unexpected intruder.
"Callob.... It's not what it looks like-"
"Ty! I thought you were out with Zoë and Marcus ?"
"I was but Zoë is ill and-"
"Wait is she okay ?"
I snapped my head in the direction of Phil noticing the worry on his face before he realised he had asked straight away and blushed whilst looking down.
"Phil she's fine don't worry, any ways I went to see Marcus and he asked about Troye and I burst into tears and well basically he's the reason I'm here and to cut a long story short-"
"Too late."
"Troye shut up!-"
I cut him off laughing at him before making it my business to sort this out.
"So what he's here ? We have sorted things out and I fell over and accidentally took him down with me obviously just before you came in. Calm down ask everyone around us and they will tell you that."
He glared at me instantly.
"Who asked you Mellet ?"
"CALLOB! Don't talk to him like that!"
"Oh get over yourself Nate."
I moved Tyler off of me and stood up slowly walking towards him with clenched fists but Tyler grabbed my hand pulling me back and Karli spoke up.
"Callob get out of our house."
"One last thing before you kick him out - we're over Callob. You obviously don't trust me plus I guess now I've seen what you are really like, I should've known it was too good to be true. Obviously I was stupid enough to lose my virginity to an asshole."
I looked at him with wide eyes and he just shrugged.
"FUCK YOU OAKLEY!"
And with that, he stormed out of the house and slammed the door. I ran to the door and opened it shouting before he left.
"NO NEED TO TRY AND BREAK THE DOOR!"
I felt a familiar pair of arms around my neck trying to wrestle me to the ground.
"Karli there is no way you will get me d-FUCK!"
My feet were took from underneath me as I hit the floor and Karli started jumping up and down excitedly.
"You were saying ?"
"Shut up."
I must have blushed crimson as I looked at the ground next to me avoiding eye contact with them- mostly Tyler. So I managed to make a fool out of myself straight away in front of my crush. Great.
"Ocean! Snap out of your little zone and come back to earth please."
I slowly looked up when I heard the next sentence.
"Oi Tyler stop looking at Troye all lovesick and shit. Seriously you guys are so fucking dense."
I looked straight at Tyler just to catch him staring but I didn't call him out on it instead just replying to Karli.
"Oh fuck off."
We weren't all that dense I mean at least I'm pretty sure of his feeling towards me. He hasn't seemed to figure out mine though. I get that, I'm a pretty good actor and always have been, I know how to hide my feelings.
