Tyler has a basketball scholarship, a solid reputation, and no reason to question the life he's built. Josh, on an IT scholarship, keeps to himself. Quiet, focused, and used to staying out of the way. They've never been close. They've never needed to be. But life has a way of pushing people toward the things they're most afraid to face. original by @blurryvignette on ao3!!! 🔞⚠️CONTAINS SEXUAL MATERIAL⚠️🔞

if you are very easily triggered, please don't read this. i don't think this is very graphic, but please be cautious i don't want anyone hurting themselves. inspired by forest by twenty one pilots
