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 protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡAtLr1TVjSh
“Which one?”copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡeU4P3SCfUO
“I don’t know the name, but it’s the dinky, run down one.” copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOq448TPs6
“Ohhh, that one. Yeah, will do, but how are you going to get to your house?” Preston asked, raising an eyebrow, copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5YXQxgxir
“I’ll figure it out later,”copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcOP0eY6HI
“You know my dad works on cars… I can just send him down here if you want.”copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwW0ENkBym
“Are you sure?”copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKPtzV2xP4
“My dad loves you more than me, he won’t mind.” The both of them laughed,copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQRfWw2hVk
“Alright, thanks man.” Tyler smiled,copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdxqV9E1WU
“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 protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ox6ooC3ge
“Sooo… How do you and Tyler know each other?” I asked, the silence making me tense up,copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nye0rWqGn
“We used to go to the same church, and school as kids.”copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡewc4FJDWzv
“Oh. Was he always so…. How do I word this…?”copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1CetVjjI4B
“Depressed?”copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡue9jfuTTsd
“Yeah.”copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuYsOsuatY
“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 protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0MIiriMDP
“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 protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡgP3OV7qgpb
“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 protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWzCCFBwEm
“Thanks for the ride.”copyright protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPEUIASiyq
“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 protection161ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2afs1BACS
