'You'll never be good enough. Never. Come join me, Tyler. Come to me. It's your fault I'm dead. You killed me. I'm dead because of you. Come to me, baby. Come join me.'

His voice whispered softly in my ear. I tried to will him away, but it wasn't working. He wouldn't leave me alone. But...I wasn't sure I wanted him too...I missed him...I loved him...

I wanted him back...I wished that day never happened...

I wish I could go back...

I wish it was me and not him...

I was nervous beyond belief. My knees were wobbly, and they felt as if they would give out at any moment. My eyes darted around the principals office rapidly. I didn't want to be here. I wanted to go back home. 

'Stop being so selfish, Tyler,' he sang 'At least you get to go to high school.' 

I felt a sharp pang inside my heart. It was true...If it weren't for me, he would be here right now. We would be hand in hand, ready to face the world together. But instead, I had no hand to hold. I was scared and afraid. 

"Tyler," Juliana called. "Come here, please." I did as I was told, and stood beside my mother timidly. She wrapped her arm around my shoulder, and held me close to her. 

"Hi, Tyler," the principal smiled politely. "I'm Mr. Simon. If you ever need anything, please do come and see me." I nodded in response, and watched as Mr. Simon's smile faded a bit. 

"He doesn't speak," Juliana cut in. "And it's not my place to say why." Mr. Simon looked between my mother and I, before smiling again. 

"I understand. I'll be sure to notify your teachers while I bring you to your classes." Mr. Simon stated.

"You will be bringing him?" Juliana questioned. 

"Yes," Mr. Simon replied. "Although my original plan was to have a student come down and show him around, I'd rather do it myself now. I must tell his teachers of his...condition." 

"'Condition'?" Juliana snapped. "Excuse me?" 

"I-I," Mr. Simon stuttered. "That's not what I meant." Juliana just glared at him. 

"I have to go, Tyler," she said, turning her attention towards me. "Have a good day, and text me if you need anything." I nodded and gave my mother a quick kiss on her cheek, and watched as she left the principals office.  

"Come with me, Tyler." Mr. Simon snapped. I raised an eyebrow at him. What the hell had bit his dick?

Mr. Simon exited the office, without another thought. I didn't mind though. The faster I was brought to my classes, the faster I could go back home. 

'Shut up, Tyler' he snapped. 'You don't deserve to go home. You have a happy family, and mines more broken than your head is

I clenched my jaw, as I tried my hardest not to let the tears forming behind my eyes fall. Be strong, I thought. Just ignore him.

'You don't mean that, Tyler,' he laughed, filling my head with memories. 'You'll never get me to leave. Mainly because you're weak. You can't let me go. Join me, baby. Come join me. I want you, I need you, come join me.'
