tylers POV

It had been 2 months since Tr.....

He broke me, and I still couldn't even say his name. If I did, I was terrified I would hurt myself again like before. How pathetic...

I raised my sleeve to find faded marks lining my pale skin, and all at once, memories flooded back.

//// flashback ////

I could practically feel my heart shatter in my chest as my legs shook, causing me to fall to my knees. I looked at him in disbelief. Reavaluating what he had spoken. Tears poured down from my eyes, rolling down onto my shirt.

"H...how.. how could you say that to me?" I whimpered.

He simply wiped his eyes, and smirked, which slowly faded. "You..you said you wanted the truth. and I damn gave it to you!" He hollered.

"Well in that case, I fucking wish you lied." I spat. Anger rising from within me. I stood up and looked at Troye. His eyes full of hurt and hatred at the same time. His cheeks glistened from tears, and his mouth formed a frown.

"Why are y..you doing this?" My voice wobbled. He glared at me, his frown twisted into a fake smile.

"I already told you. I don't love you Tyl..er." His voiced lingered on my name for too long. He doesn't want this. Before I could speak up he bolted through our... my apartment door.

-present day-

"Tyler are you okay?"

I shook my head and rolled down my sleeve. Bad memories. My friend sat down beside me, and rubbed my back comfortingly.

"Ty, you need to stop thinking of him. All he does is bring you down." He scolded.

"I don't think you understand what I'm going through." I remarked. He looked at me puzzled, then smiled again. His eyes lighting up green.

"You're right I don't... buuut I do know how to cheer Tyler Oakley up!" He laughed. I smiled and giggled.

"How is that?" I joked, expecting a quick response. But as I looked back up, the boy wasn't smiling anymore. His eyes were a clouded dark green. His smile erased.

"Tyler I have to go." He spoke. Furiously trying to move past me.

"Woah okay chill out. What's wrong?" I asked turning around.

My mouth hung open in shock. It was him.

"Connor? What are you doing?" Troye paused.
