Chapter Text
Tyler and Josh met on an online chatting platform a couple of months ago. Well what means a couple of months? They met almost a year ago. Mostly through Mutual's. Right after they met, they found out they went to the same school but there is one problem coming between their friendship. Their own friends. Josh was more of an outcast while Tyler was pretty popular amongst the students. He was on the basketball team, he wasn’t exactly bad at it either and basically had everything josh didn’t have. Josh was an outcast afterall. He had more of an Emo style, already had piercings and played the drums. They didn’t care that their friends all hated each other but they couldn’t hang out in school while their friends were watching. It would simply ruin both of their reputation.. well it would worsen josh’s and people would think tyler is in some weird bet. It’s even worse when one has a crush on the other.

‘’Hey Tyler look! Those weird Emo kids are here again!’’
Chris chuckled as he pointed at them not so discreetly.
‘’they are such weirdo’s its sickening..’’
Tyler had to force out even if he didn’t mean any of that.
Meanwhile Josh’s friend and him had the same conversation.
‘’I genuinely hate those basic ass guys on the basketball team, especially Tyler! That dude just pisses me off with his fake ass personality.’’
Josh just nodded and looked towards Tylers direction. Tyler looked back and smiled a small smile at him. How could his friend say that he had a fake personality when both of them are best friends outside of school?

Both of them were in school late because one: Josh had band practice alone and two:Tyler excused himself out of practice earlier to hang out with Josh while he was playing the drums. Tyler entered the band room, sweaty and dishelved.
‘’So… what’s my favourite drummer up to?’’
Tyler said teasingly
‘’Drumming maybe?’’
"Okay smartass.’’
‘’Im not a Smartass!’’
‘’Yes you are!’’
‘’Am not!’’
‘’is very much one’’
‘’okay maybe a little..’’
‘’Told you so. What are you playing even?’’
‘’Title and Registration from death cab.’’
‘’I knew I recognized that from somewhere!’’
Tyler smiled sickenly sweet and it made Josh’s heart start pounding for some reason.
‘’Oh also sorry because of chris earlier, he can be an total asshole.’’
‘’No, no! it's fine.. My friend also said something about you and how your personality is apparently fake..’’
Tyler faked being wound and put a hand over his heart
"Ugh, I'm so heartbroken! How can my Best friend not defend me?’’
‘’you’re such a Drama queen.’’
They had quite the playful conversation and after they both realized Tyler’s Teammates got out of the gym and headed home, Both of them overheard a conversation.
‘’Dude Tyler keeps leaving a lot earlier than usual. It's throwing me off.’’
‘’I'm not the only one who noticed? Thank god. I also keep hearing those damn drums from that emo boy more often.’’
one of them chuckled
‘’Imagine they meet up in secret after school to make out. That would make tyler such a fag.’’
‘’Nah he wouldn't, he's as straight as an arrow. He wouldn’t kiss a faggot like josh!’’
Both of them laughed.
Tyler and Josh listened
‘’yeah so those are my teammates..’’
‘’Yeah i know.’’
Both of them looked annoyed.
After everything was clear and they could leave, they went home separately.
