Tyler smiled as his friend, Preston, pulled his car up behind us. He got up, and walked up to him, wrapping Preston into a hug. I awkwardly got out of the car, and watched the two talk until Tyler remembered why he had called Preston over in the first place, “Anyways, Preston, can you take Cameron up to the hotel about a mile away from here?”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡocR6Nife6b
“Which one?”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡtOeGmhpqoB
“I don’t know the name, but it’s the dinky, run down one.” copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eX8pzIETl
“Ohhh, that one. Yeah, will do, but how are you going to get to your house?” Preston asked, raising an eyebrow, copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiyCpmVEB1
“I’ll figure it out later,”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡP5P4LblbCK
“You know my dad works on cars… I can just send him down here if you want.”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLZJUojD2c
“Are you sure?”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNvxpUTlyu
“My dad loves you more than me, he won’t mind.” The both of them laughed,copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡmoAcsloOw0
“Alright, thanks man.” Tyler smiled,copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡziMy2HWlkZ
“Anytime.” Preston pulled out his phone out, and sent a text to his dad, before motioning for me to join him in his car. I did as he directed me to, and got inside.copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjM3QcYKxx
“Sooo… How do you and Tyler know each other?” I asked, the silence making me tense up,copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUVO7oavdG
“We used to go to the same church, and school as kids.”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMZjk20hnk
“Oh. Was he always so…. How do I word this…?”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWD30tgYeN
“Depressed?”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsIqhPPsl2
“Yeah.”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SP8b9acqy
“He was, but back then he had hope. Now he doesn't seem to have any.” Preston frowned, “I hate that about him. I know he can't help it, but he's so amazing. I want him to be able to see that too.”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHvaKvE0tS
“He really is. I've only gotten to know him recently, and god, I love him so much. In a kinda gay way,” I said, making Preston chuckle, “but also just in general. He should hate me, because I bullied him for ages, but he doesn't, and I don't think I know anyone who would do something like that, all because he saw that I was struggling.”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYlxpDnf5I
“Heh, yeah, that sounds like something he would do.” Preston smiled softly, “Probably because he knows what it feels like to suffer… I don't think I remember a time where he wasn't suicidal, and I don't think he does either. I know that he doesn't want that for anyone else.” Preston pulled the car to a stop,copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡieB7mNhxZH
“Thanks for the ride.”copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5woAH95laz
“No problem. I hope things go better for you,” He smiled, and waved. I closed the door, and waved back to him, before going into the hotel and checking in for the night.copyright protection11ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYyzvYcSdh
