•Chapter 10: I Need Something...•

They must be here to help but who can help me? It has been inevitable that I'm all alone

Banging is heard on the door, are they trying to kick it down? I panic, I don't want anyone to walk into this mess. I quickly grab a roll of bandages I took from the infirmary. I began to rap the silk bandages around my left arm. Slowly, the blood starts to bleed through the bandages, staining it to a blood red color. I had little time.

I re-did the bandages as fast as I could then quickly changing my shirt to a long sleeved one. It was just in time too.

The door broke down and two people were standing there.

It was Josh and Y/N

I turned my head from them as I heard footsteps coming closer and a swift arms wrapping around me. I assumed it was Josh but upon turning my head to face him, I was surprised to be met by Y/N. Her eyes closed and she grips on tighter. Josh stands by the door giving a slight frown yet I'm not sure if it's directed to me or Y/N

Y/N opens her eyes and stares up at me, her (eye color) eyes sparkle as her eyes water and tears start to form. Her eyes shined with sympathy and empathy. She did care.

I turn around to face her and gave her a hug. I began to cry and I gripped onto her shirt tighter. She starts to sob onto my shoulder.

Josh moves from his position near the door and makes his way to join the hug, swiftly rubbing my back up and down to help calm me.

We stayed like this for a couple of minutes before I break it up. I stare at Y/N, her wet and messy (hair length, hair color) hair snuggly sways. The longer I stared at her, the prettier she got. I snapped myself out of it. I didn't want to get involved in something like that.

I turn to Josh to distract myself, a frown still evident on his face. He seemed like he wanted to say something but wasn't sure how to address it. We all just stand in silence until
Y/N breaks it.

"Tyler I-I am worried about you. A lot. Please I just want to help. I know you told me not to cause you will just be a problem but, it's a bigger problem to me knowing that you are suffering and I can't do anything about it. I feel so guilty about it. I felt so powerless. I talked to Josh about it. I didn't know what to do. Even now that I came to you, to comfort you, I still feel like I'm not doing enough. It hurts a lot, knowing that I can't be of any help. I'm so weak. I am of no use to you or to Josh. I'm sorry I'm so sorry." She asserted, letting out large breaths in between to catch her breath from crying so much.

Josh then continues, "You should have seen her Ty, we just met today and she's already so worried about you and me. I guess she makes friends easily if she puts her mind to it. She really cares a lot. And by the way Y/N I know you are important to me and Tyler. You are not weak either. But anyway, Y/N and I care about you so much. We are always here to be your shoulder to cry on. We will always listen no matter how repetitive or stupid your reasonings may be. Anxiety is like the over exaggeration of worries and Depression is the over exaggeration of negative thoughts. It's understandable as to why you feel like that and you shouldn't feel ashamed of it. Being sad or crying does not make you weak. It makes you human."

Hearing both their statements touched my heart. Seeing their faces proved to me that they cared, at that moment at least. I knew it was inevitable that I would feel this way again but I was glad that they would still be there for me no matter what. I don't want to be alone in this world and I want to live normally. I don't have any hope things would change but for now I have them to comfort me.

I wipe the tears of my face and hold a smile, I chuckle a bit to myself before I speak. "Thank you for coming to my aid. It means a lot."

Both Josh and Y/N gather around me again and give another hug, calmly reassuring me. They both silently respond

"You're very welcome." Said Josh. Y/N then responded right after.

"Anytime Tyler, whenever you are hurt, I'll always be here."

REEEEE THAT WAS CHAPTER 10!

Finally we are at 10 chapters! Wooo we have already came a long way!

Thank you everyone for reading so far! This chapter was solely based on character development as well as Tyler's and Y/N's interactions cause hey, this is a Tyler x Reader so I have to slowly develop their feelings for eachother.

You can already tell it's developing with Tyler saying how pretty Y/N (or technically you readers lol. Ya'll probably super prettier than me tho oof) is but quickly backfiring cause he doesn't want to get involved in love and relationships.

That's what they all say but sooner or later he will be in too deep 👀

Lmao but anyway chapter 11 will hopefully come out shortly depending on my schedule with school and such. I hope you find this book kinda interesting so far!

Lastly, thank you again for 700+ reads! I can imagine in like 300 more reads that this book would be to 1000 reads! Omg I can't wait!

But anyway with all that being said, thank you for reading and see you all in chapter 11, buh baiiii 👀👋🏻💕
