- Chapter 9 - "But Sleeeeeeep!" -
Warnings: Mentions of School, Snyder
Third Person POV
The boys all laid on the grass under the stars.
"I don't want this to end." Mike breaks the comfortable silence that had fallen upon the group.
"I never do either." Jack agrees, sighing softly.
"And we have school tomorrow." Romeo mutters, frowning.
"I hate school." Ike mumbles.
"I agree." Boots and Mush respond.
"Oh!" Elmer shoots up, now sitting up in the grass.
The boys look at him, some sitting up as well and others just staying laying down.
"I know what hasn't happened today that usually does!" He exclaims.
JoJo turns over, onto his stomach. "Go on then!" He exclaims, excited.
"Star facts!" Elmer exclaims, grinning.
A good amount of the boys look at Race.
"Oh..." realization dawns on Race. "My star facts?" He asks softly.
"Who else's?" Mush asks with a small chuckle.
Race shrugs, turning over and looking at the stars. "I don't know. I just never really realized you like my rambles about stars that I seem to get lost in." He tells them.
"We love them!" Buttons pipes up.
"Yeah!" Crutchie exclaims.
Albert and Spot share small smiles.
I love this group, Spot thinks to himself, lacing Albert's hand in his.
I'm so glad I found this group, Albert thinks with a soft smile.
"Knock yourself out, Race." Finch tells him, pulling Tommy boy's head into his lap.
Tommy boy smiles softly.
"But don't actually." Henry cuts in with a chuckle. "We don't want you getting hurt and I doubt Miss Hannah would want it." He tells him.
The boys laugh.
Finch chuckles, playing with Tommy boy's hair.
Romeo leans over to him. "You're going to make him fall asleep." He whispers, gesturing to Tommy boy.
Finch chuckles. "He can stay at my house tonight." He tells Romeo softly. "My house is only a few houses down and I can text his mom."
Romeo nods.
Race stays silent for a minute, trying to think of star facts. "How many do we want?" He asks.
"One!" JoJo pipes up.
"Two!" Elmer chirps, grinning.
"Three please." Tommy boy adds softly, his head still resting in Finch's lap.
He sounded like he was about to fall asleep, and he was.
