- TYLER -
Before long, Troye had drifted to sleep, his head resting on my chest. I stroked his hair, allowing his steady breathing to pull me into a light slumber.
After a while, I woke up to the sound of Troye whimpering.
"Babe?" I mumble, rubbing the sleep out of my eyes.
He starts thrashing around, holding me tightly in his sleep.
"Troye?" I repeat.
He doesn't answer, still squirming around.
He's having a nightmare.
"Troye? Wake up, babe" I say, lightly shaking him.
"Gweoingjd enatillywkjfhejkbw" he mumbles.
Somewhere in those jumbled words, I heard my name.
"Babe? Wake up" I say louder, shaking him harder.
His eyes flutter open like the butterflies that erupt in my stomach every time I look into his eyes.
"Hey there, Squirmy" I chuckle.
"That's not funny. I was having a nightmare because of that stupid movie you made me watch" he whines, snuggling his nose into my neck.
"Hey! I didn't make you watch anything"
"Well, you didn't me stop either" he pouts, turning away from me.
"Oh, heavens above. Is the Troye Sivan mad at me? How can I possibly live with myself now?" I say, dramatically.
I see his shoulders tense with repressed giggles.
"Troye Sivan. Would you please do me the honor of forgiving my sorry ass?" I ask, grabbing his hips and pulling him into my body.
"You're weird" he giggles, relaxing into my body.
"Thanks, babe"
"Tillyyyyy I'm hungryy" he whines.
We haven't eaten all day. What with the doctors office and my little episode, we never got around to it.
"Alright, let's get us some food" I say, pulling him out of bed.
He follows me, resting most if his body weight on me.
I shove him onto the couch, smirking, while I go heat up a pizza.
Soon, I join him on the couch along with our midnight meal, turning on "Finding Nemo" to prevent any more nightmares.
I plop down in the edge of my couch, watching the movie
"Tilly?"
"Hmm?"
"Why are you sitting all the way over there?" Troye asks from the corner part of my L-shaped couch, looking at me with a confused look on his in face.
"Get over here" he insists, patting the spot next to him.
I roll my eyes, but crawl over next to him, laying my head on his chest.
"Ty?" he mutters.
"Yeah?"
"I really am sorry about making you feel like you don't matter to me..."
"It's okay"
"No, it's not. I got too involved with Cal. I should have spent more time with you. I'm sorry, Ty" he sighs, turning my face so I am gazing into his worried eyes.
"It's okay, babe" I repeat, smiling at him.
He lets out a sigh of relief, relaxing onto the couch, pulling me into him, tightly.
"I love you, Ty" he whispers.
Although those are the three words I've wanted him to say to me for so long, I know he says it as a friend, so instead my heart breaks.
I know he means he loves me like a friend. I choke back tears, burying my face in his shirt, an action he mistook for happiness.
"I love you too, Troye. So much."
Troye smiles, happily, combing through my hair as silent tears are falling out of my eyes.
If only he knew how much I actually meant it.
