Tyler has always been your best friend. Even when his life took a turn for the worst and everything changed after his dad died, you stayed. Despite never showing it, he has always been appreciative of you.

Even now, being barely awake due to being under medication, he still felt that appreciation as you sat by his bedside. He felt like shit, with the heart monitor beeping, the horrible pain in his stomach from the phantom world and the sickening dizziness from the stroke that came after. This. was. the worst.
