"No!"
Tyler quickly scrambled to stand up. He stood over Sebastian, staring down at him.
"Sebastian, we can't. I...can't. You know I still love and care for Abbie." He started.
Sebastian then stood up and watched Tyler with caring, soft eyes.
"I really do appreciate you being here for me and listening to me, but I can't do this. I don't want to break Abbie's heart any more than I already have. I'm sorry." He said then he grabbed his shirt from Sebastian and started to leave the bathroom when Sebastian quickly grabbed onto his arm to stop him.
"Tyler..."
Tyler stood there, refusing to look back at Sebastian. "You should go." Then, he left.
Tyler went into his bedroom and tossed his shirt into the hamper then he grabbed out another clean shirt to wear when he heard the front door open and close. He sighed softly as he plopped down on the edge of the bed, burying his face into his hands.
"I'm alone again..."
A couple hours later after having spent his time alone, Tyler became too anxious and had to be around someone, anyone. So he decided to go over to his friend's place to hang out with them again.
When he got to the house, he was let inside by Emily.
"What's going on, Tyler? You're not with Sebastian?" She asked.
Tyler shook his head. "No, I-" That's when he noticed Abbie sitting in the living room with Chris, Zack and Kaitlyn.
When Abbie saw Tyler, she stood up and started walking to the stairs, but before she could even take a step on the first stair, Tyler quickly rushed over to her and blocked her path.
"Abbie, can we talk?" He pleaded.
Abbie sighed and crossed her arms. "What is it?"
"I miss you so much."
Abbie frowned. "Really? I find that hard to believe since it seems like you enjoy hanging out with Sebastian more." She pointed out.
"I...There's nothing going on between us. I swear. He's just been a good listener to me. Seriously, Abbie. Please talk to me and please come back home. I try to give you space and every time we talk, it seems like you don't even want to be around me. I want us to go back to the way we used to."
Abbie looked away. "I...I can't. Not right now."
Tyler frowned. "So, this is it? When are you ever gonna come back to me?"
"Tyler, just stop! I can't deal with you right now. I need my space."
"Space! Space! That's ALL you ever want from me now! Whatever happened to the Abbie I fell for?" Tyler asked.
"....Maybe she's dead."
Tyler shook his head. "I refuse to give up on you, on our relationship."
"Tyler just...give me some space. We can talk more later."
Tyler groaned loudly. "Forget it!" He shouted then he stormed out.
Tyler looked up at the night sky when a single rain drop fell onto his face and then suddenly, more rain drops started falling until it was pouring down raining. Tyler closed his eyes, allowing himself to get drenched. He screamed out, not caring if anybody heard him. The next thing he knew, he felt something overhead blocking the rain from falling down on him. He looked up to see that it was an umbrella then he slowly turned around to see who was with him.
"Sebastian..."
