Elliot drives off again and Jonathan sighs. Jonathan lets his mind drift away into another world. He feels a hand on his thigh. He jumps and goes to smack it away. He feels Elliot's hand and blushes. He intertwines their fingers and smiles to himself.
"Jonathan... have you had a relationship with a guy before?" "I haven't had any kind of relationship, only friendships with Belle, Michael and You..." Elliot nods and they see the cops behind them with the lights on. Elliot pulls over.
Jonathan goes to grab Elliot's hand but Elliot stops him. The cop comes to the window and Elliot rolls it down. "Got a call from a cafe in town that you punched an employee." Elliot nods. "I did but for what he said..." "What'd he say?" "He sexually abused my boyfriend..."
The cop nods. "Evidence?" Elliot looks at Jonathan. "They were both at the same adoption center and told the same stories..." The cop nods. "Don't get into anymore trouble..." Elliot nods and the cop signals him to drive off. Elliot does and looks at Jonathan.
"W-we're not dating..." Elliot nods "I know..." Jonathan looks at him. "You called me your boyfriend..." "I messed up..."Jonathan nods and sees some shops coming into view. "Which one first?" "Jonathan pick whatever one you like..." "These are the more expensive stores..."
"I know... pick anything out..." Jonathan nods and they get out of the car. They head to the first store and go inside. Jonathan sees hoodies and pants and crop tops. Really any kind of clothes are there. Jonathan looks at the hoodies and then looks at Elliot. "I c-an't afford none of this..."
"I said don't worry... I'll pay for them..." Jonathan nods and Elliot brings him around the store and then pays. Jonathan sighs. "I didn't need all this..." Elliot smiles. "We just need one more thing..." Elliot gets out and leaves Jonathan in the car. Jonathan waits and hears the door open.
"Got you a suitcase..." Jonathan smiles. "Thanks." "Let's head back to the hotel..." Jonathan nods and as Elliot drives back to the hotel, Jonathan falls asleep. Elliot smiles. "I wish I knew you better... I wish we weren't separated... I wish..." Elliot looks at the road and wipes his eyes.
"I wish I never got feelings for you..."
