troye found himself wandering to the room with the piano, gliding his hands over the keys. he brought some napkins from the kitchen, along with a pen to jot some stuff down. since he had so much free time, due to tyler getting back into the swing of work, he decided he’d continue to work on his music. he couldn’t help but reminisce the past of when he’d play in the living room.
“your father and i used to dance to this song in our youth.” laurelle said, smiling as she sat next to troye, facing the piano. “well i guess it wouldn’t hurt to dance now.” shaun said, standing behind his mother. they both got up and danced, laughing and giggling and soon enough the children joined in as well. everyone took turns with everyone else, dancing as troye gracefully played.
or like the other time troye played his first song to his parents,
“mom, dad! i finished!” troye called, smiling so brightly his cheeks began to ache. everyone gathered around the piano, as troye sang. the children loved hearing troye sing, and his parents were very proud of him. a picture perfect family is all anyone could call it.
troye carefully pressed down on the keys with his eyes closed shut, wishing that his family was there to listen. but when he opened them and revealed his ocean blue ones, he couldn’t help but feel a little piece of his heart break. an artificial family is great, but a true family is one he holds closer to his heart.
tyler eventually had to meet up with alfie again to discuss more business stuff so troye decided to tag along. once again were troye and zoë chatting it up about anything and everything.
eventually troye blurted out that he plays music, and writes songs. zoë thought it’d be a great idea to have him play at hers and alfie’s country club. troye was hesitant and told zoë he’d think about it and let her know.
but before they left, troye whispered a soft, “i’ll do it.” into her ear. zoë grinned, shining her pearly white teeth and nodding. he wondered how tyler would take the news.
unfortunately, it wasn’t too good. “troye, i can’t believe you would just do that! that’s my client not your friend!” he said, massaging his forehead. “i just think we need to take a break, alright?” he said, not looking in troye’s eyes.
“a break isn’t possible when you live in the same house.” troye mumbled, a bit annoyed. “then get out.” tyler said his voice sounding strict and serious. he then turned around and walked away. was he just saying that it was her serious? troye knew that the two of them wouldn’t be on a “break” for to long, so he didn’t really worry about it.

it had been 3 days since the last talked. 3 days of ignoring each other and 3 nights of sleeping away from each other. it was horrible, and troye felt terrible on the day he was supposed to be performing. he eventually asked ariel if she could ring up a driver for him.
troye could feel his heart beat quickly, as he sat facing the piano waiting for the curtains to move aside. he quickly took a breathe in, and then heard the curtains swing open. he proceeded to sing loud and clear, while tapping away on the keys. it was a rush of excitement and adrenaline pursing through his veins.
he stood up looking towards the crowd, and smiled widely when his eyes landed on his true love. there tyler oakley stood with a bouquet of flowers, mouthing a “i’m sorry!” troye gratefully smiled and nodded, accepting his apology from afar.
“i’m sorry i did that. it is was really a douche move. i told you i’d support your music, and i literally bashed you about the whole thing.” he said, pulling troye into a hug. troye could smell the sweet aroma of tyler. it was a mix between cinnamon and cigarettes. when the two had first met, troye had thought it was maybe his cologne. but as time went on troye figured out that it was just the smell he had, to the point it was all he ever wanted to smell.
“i love you.” troye mumbled into tyler’s neck.
tyler’s heart began to race. love? tyler knew he loved troye as well, but his mouth just wouldn’t say the words. tyler pulled out of the hug and gave a small smile, trying to ignore what troye had said.
“we should go see zoë.” tyler said trying to change the subject. troye felt his heart fall into the deep pits of his stomach, as he didn’t get the 3 words back. it made him feel like an idiot. ‘don’t you love me?’ he wanted to ask but knew it’d only cause more trouble. so, he followed tyler like a lost puppy.
tyler couldn’t help but feel a bit regretful about not saying it back, but he wanted to wait. it had only been a month, and although he knew he wanted to spend the rest of his life with troye. he just couldn’t face telling troye. he also had a feeling that troye told everyone he loved them to the point the word was quite useless. tyler began walking quicker through the crowd when he heard the voice of troye yell, “tilly! wait up!”.
tilly? was it a nickname? if it is, it’s a very odd one. most normal people just called him ty. but it was beautiful and unique, and best of all- from the one and only troye sivan.
troye finally caught up to tyler and the two boys clung onto each other’s hands as they walked to zoë. even though they were stopped plenty of times, from people wondering if they could get an autograph or if troye could preform at their place. it was quite exciting for troye since he wasn’t very known or noticed before. all tyler could do was sit back and watch troye have the time of his life being a pop star, while casually being introduced to them as his ‘boyfriend’.
it was all great. except for the fact that tyler was to much of a pussy, with walls higher than the great wall of china. and was quite afraid of using the word love with anyone.
