"Josh..." Tyler said a little louder than his speaking voice.
You stepped onto the chair and looked at the necktie hanging there.
"Josh..." Tyler said again as he started looking for anything to make Blurryface shut up.
HED OESN'TCAR E! YO UCA N'T SIL ENCE ME! YOUKNO WWHAT HA PPEN EDNEXT!
Tyler found his old pen and sat on the ground.
This wasn't an ordinary pen.
COMEO NTYLER! USEIT!
Blurryface remembered it. Tyler turned the pen so that the end was on top. He pressed on the side button and a sliver of a blade poked out. He pressed the button again and more of the blade came out. Tyler continued until the blade was fully extended. The pen had a secret side that was a blade and the pen side was all out of ink.
THECEIL INGFAN! YOU SLIPPEDUP! YOUC AN'TEVE N KILLYOURS ELF! WHATAJ OKE YOUAR E!
Tyler started crying and didn't even comprehend what he was doing in that moment. He pulled his left sleeve up and made several cuts before dropping the blade and laying back down. He looked up at his ceiling and prayed for it to end.
I'm the only one who cares about us.
Tyler looked at his arm and noticing the blood trickling down; he got up and went to the bathroom. Once in there he felt someone behind him.
"Tyler?"
Tyler turned around to see Josh. Looks like he didn't close the bathroom door.
"I thought I heard someone call my name." Josh said entering the bathroom. Upon entering he noticed Tyler's arm lined with several cuts.
"Come on, let's get this under some water." Josh said taking Tyler's arm and placing it under the sink.
He let the water flow over Tyler's arm. Tyler winced at the pain, but let it go by. Josh took some bandage from under the sink and wrapped it around Tyler's arm.
"Thank you, Josh." Tyler said hugging his friend.
Josh hugged back, "Of course. Next time, make sure to get me before you decide to harm yourself okay?"
"Okay." Tyler said and they broke from the hug.
Tyler noticed Josh's arm was covered in black sharpie.
"What's going on there?" Tyler asked politely.
________________________________________________
It was the first night of Josh moving in and Josh laid down on the floor with a pillow and a blanket. He took his phone out and saw a couple messages from Debby.
[Debby]: hey, what's up? :D
[Debby]: can we talk?
[Debby]: josh?
[Debby]: please
He immediately called her right after reading the messages. After a couple rings, she picked up.
"Debby, what's wrong?"
"I'm fine now. I just would've loved to talk to you earlier."
"What happened? Was it that friend of yours again?"
Debby had talked to Josh about this friend of hers that was so controlling of her. Josh had mentioned that it was abuse but Debby didn't believe that a friend could be abusive as she said.
