Tyler's P.O.V
After we left the dinner Daniel drove me back to the school to get my car then we went home. I took my insulin and he changed then me and him dug around in the garage for the decorations.
"So yall really decorate for Christmas," I say looking at all the tubs, "Yeah this is Chris's favorite holiday," Daniel says as we start carrying them to the yard.
Felix and Greyson come out the front door and go to the garage to grab the ladders. "Okay we're not letting Dallas up here again, he's too clumsy and falls off" Felix says as they put two ladders down in the yard.
"Okay, boys yall start with the lights" Daniel says opening the tub of light. "Me and Tyler are gonna start the blow-ups" he walks over to the tubs by me.
He opens up one of the tubs and pulls out a blow-up, it's Santa. "Okay go drag it somewhere over there" he points to the side of the yard.
Daniel brings over more blow-ups and extension cords. We start plugging them in and staking them to the ground.
"Can you stake the base?" Daniel says as he stakes the side cords on the last blowup. "Yeah" I crouch down and stake all four of its little feet and stand up.
But apparently too fast, my vision gets all dark and fuzzy and my brain feels like applesauce. I feel like I'm falling, then I hit the ground hard.
"Woah you okay?" I blink a few times and see the sky, a nice blue with white fluffy clouds. Then Felix's face comes into view, "Hey, did you hear me? Are you okay?" Felix asks again.
"Yeah just got up too fast" I sit up and get dizzy again. I put my head in my hands, "Okay Tyler let's get you in the house" Daniel says coming up to us.
I stand up and Daniel puts his arm on my shoulder, "This okay?" I nod and we walk up to the porch and into the house.
"You two finish the lights!" he yells at Greyson and Felix as he goes through the door.
"Okay let's get you seated" he takes me over to the couch. "You took your insulin earlier right?" he asks as I sit down.
I nod and go to lie down, "What's your number?" he hands me a pillow. I pull out my phone and look, "50" I sigh, "I don't know why it's low" I turn my phone off and turn onto my side.
"Do you need me to get you something?", "Could you hand me a blanket?" I reach my hand out.
He hands me the blanket that was on the back of the couch and I curl up in it. Daniel goes back outside and I close my eyes, maybe a nap will help.

"Tyler wake up" I feel someone shaking me, I roll over hoping they'll go away. "Tyler come on you need to eat" they continue shaking me.
"Touch me again and I'm gonna jab you with a lit lighter" I say and pull the blanket over my head. I hear them walk away and I try to go back to sleep, I hear them walk back up.
"Tyler, it's time for dinner you need to eat" this time It's Daniel trying to wake me but at least he isn't shaking me. I pull the blanket off my head and roll over sitting up at the same time.
My phone screams at me and I pick it up off the couch, "My dexcom expired" I say and head to the kitchen. "So does that explain earlier?" Daniel asks following me.
"Not really, it shouldn't have been reading low. I got dizzy because I stood up too fast that why I fell, but I wasn't low." I grab my Dexcom box and head to the bathroom.
I take off my shirt and pull the old one off my arm. I wipe the area to clean in, I disconnect the old transmitter and pair up the new one. I wipe the area on my stomach where it'll go and count to three, pushing the button on two.
I throw my trash away and put my shirt back on. I leave the bathroom and go into the dining room and see that Dallas is in my seat.
I go up and stand behind him, staring at the back of his head. Felix is sitting across from him and looks up, his eyes meeting mine.
Slowly everyone seems to notice me and stops eating, Daniel who's sitting next to Dallas turns to me and kind of tilts his head. "Why is everyone looking at me?" Dallas finally notices everyone and looks around.
Oscar nods his head to me and Dallas turns around, "Oh hey Tyler. Why are you just standing there?", "Up." I point up and he looks over to Daniel.
Then he looks back at me, "Why can't you sit over there?" he points to the empty seat across the table and next to Addison.
"No." I cross my arms over my chest, this is my spot he better get himself up. "Tyler, I've already sat down and got comfy why can't you sit over there?"
"This is my seat. I've sat in the same spot every single day and I don't plan on switching it up. Now move." I point to the empty seat.
"But. Daaad" he turns back to Daniel, he looks at Dallas then back to me. "Dallas, you know Tyler likes to sit in the same spot, please just go sit over there." he nods to the empty seat.
Dallas lets out a sigh and gets up, taking his plate with him, when he gets over there he hands me my plate as I sit down.
As I eat I look around and notice that they had finished decorating, the house looks like Christmas exploded in here.
I'm glad Daniel made Dallas move, I like my seat I can see everywhere. I don't necessarily like that I'm in between different people every day but it's fine I guess.
