âCâmon itâs not like you have a date, just hang with us for the night, I promise my brother wonât pull any stunts.â Mackenzie didnât beg people for a lot, but here she was begging you to go to the winter dance with her and her group, which was including her brother, Cyrus. Cyrus scared you, for a plethora of reasons.
Maybe it was because he was a little angry boy who just wanted to fuck the system. Maybe it was because he likes revenge, make one mistake and heâll ruin your life. All of the above is definitely a possibility. The answer is unknown.
âI donât know Mac, you know I love you and youâre my best friend but you know Iâm just scared of your brother. What if he hates me. You do realize Iâm still friends with Tyler.â
âHe doesnât hate you, he can learn to respect your choice. So looks like youâre coming with us, be at my house at 5:30, my dad wants pictures.â She started to walk away and I went to go say something but I knew there was no point.
Later that day as you were starting to leave your mom stops you.
âGosh sweetie you look beautiful, are you going with Tyler?â
âNo mom, I actually havenât seen Tyler in awhile, if heâs there tonight Iâll talk to him, I hope heâs okay.â She took me in for a hug.
âHey, donât let that ruin tonight, you have fun, make a new friend or two, and please stay safe.â After those words left her mouth you had a sick feeling in my stomach, but of course you brushed it off, you were going to be late.
You rang the doorbell and instead of Mac or their dad, you were greeted by Cyrus.
âOh Y/N, hey, Mac didnât tell me she invited you.â what the fuck Mackenzie.
âWell I didnât know I was even going until today, Iâm doing this for her.â stop ass kissing you smart ass.
âI can respect that, you look stunning by the way, want to come in?â six points for Gryffindor.
âYeah of course.â He walked you to the couch and you sat down but of course he made himself comfortable as well, right next to you.
âSo I hear youâre still friends with Tyler, you really think thatâs safe?â why is he bringing this up, this is the last thing you wanted.
âHeâs been there for me since middle school, why would I leave him now.â
âBecause heâs bat shit crazy.â
âBut you put those ideas in his mind though.â You didnât mean to say it, you were usually good with having a filter but you were genuinely angry at him for turning Tyler into this.
âThe way Tyler feels right now was bound to happen, but that doesnât make it okay.â
âHe was probably one of the best kids in this hell hole before he met you, now he wonât even talk to me, I canât help him because of you!â Cyrus looked as if he wanted to speak but he stopped himself and we sat in silence until Mackenzie came downstairs with her date.
âDad! Do you want pictures outside or inside?â She yelled and her farther came from the kitchen.
âI donât want to annoy you kids too bad so just stand in front of the stair case.â Cyrus grabbed your hand and led you to the stairs.
âIs it okay if I put my hand on your back?â
âUh yeah thatâs fine.â You posed for more pictures then you intended and the you four headed out to go meet up with the rest of their friends. Cyrus took your hand again and didnât let go until you got to the dance.
The second you got there Mac ran off with her date and left you with Cyrus, some best friend she is. So for the most part of the dance you just stood next to him while he did his punk rock bullshit with his friends, that was until you say Clay Jensen and his group looking to he in a bit of a frenzy so of course you went over and tried to get the scope.
âWhatâs happening over here?â You asked with a big smile but nobody returned it.
âWell your little boyfriend Tyler is a fucking school shooter.â Zach whispered but he sounded so angry and scared that it felt like he was yelling at you.
âZach!â Alex groaned.
âYou know what Iâm sick and tired of everyone picking on him, I expected better from you guys at least, heâs not a school shooter!â
âSadly this isnât a joke, look.â Clay showed you his phone and your heart sunk to your stomach.
âFuck, heâs my friend Iâll talk him out of this.â You went to go outside to wait for him but someone grabbed you.
âClay what the fuck, let me go, I can fix this, this isnât Tyler.â
âYouâre not in the right state of mine Y/N, I canât let you go out there, you care about him too much.â
âIsnât that all more the reason to let me do this?â Silence fell over the group.
âCyrus!â Clay yelled and you only tried to fight your way out harder. Out of the corner of your eye you could see Cyrus turn around quickly and start walking over to you.
âWhatâs up Jensen?â
âTake Y/N and donât take your eyes off her.â Clay let go of you to hand you off to Cyrus and you made a run for it, you didnât get far before Cyrus wrapped his arms around your waist.
âCome on, letâs get out of here.â He proceeded to drag you to the locker room, which was somehow left unlocked. You stopped fighting him, but you did tense up.
âIâm not going to do anything to you, calm down. Now explain to me whatâs going on.â
âThis is all your fault!â You started to hit his chest, but he just grabbed your arms and held them to his chest.
âYou turned Tyler into a monster, youâre the reason heâs on his way to shoot up this hellhole.â
âWoah Y/N, I tried to help Tyler, I tried to be his friend, he took everything I said out of proportion, I never meant for this to happen.â You cried, no you sobbed, right into Cyrusâ chest, pathetic.
âYou left and bullied him at his lowest point, for what? because he ran out on Mackenzie, he just didnât want to embarrass himself, heâs never had a girlfriend, or been on a date, or even kissed a girl! You ruined his life Cyrus, and you ruined my life!â You continued to sob and the room stayed silent, it was like that for what felt like forever.
âHey, listen, if you want to give me a second chance I wonât fuck you up the way I did Tyler, would you want to be friends, or maybe more?â You wiped your tears on your dress sleeve and took in a shaky breath.
âYou didnât fuck up Tyler, none of us this, it was this dumbass town that in the midst of all this bullshit with the tapes, did the same damn thing they did to Hannah but to Tyler instead, nothing ever changes.â Your words only made you freak out more, everything was settling in, your best friend wanted to become a murderer, how were you supposed to cope with that?
âYou donât have to go through this alone Y/N.â You hugged him tighter in response, you didnât respond verbally, there was no need to. You took a glance at the clock and seen it had been a whole forty-five minutes, and no gunshots, you felt some of the weight leave your chest. Maybe things would be alright.
