under the sun - gjon's tears

Próxima Estación

The next morning you woke up to realise that gjon had already awoken before you and was currently helping himself to some cereal.

"well good morning, you seem to have slept well." said gjon on seeing you awake.

"is there still snow outside?" you asked hopefully.

"not much here, but there should he enough to go over your ankles in the hills. Said gjon.

"I'm going to get dressed." you said - you were still wearing your clothes from yesterday.

"you go do that, I'm going to give gohan his morning walk," said gjon, pointing towards gohan.

"have fun getting him dry after that." you said, going upstairs to your bedroom.

...

After you had put on a comfy jumper and scarf, you walked back downstairs to see gjon playing with gohan. Gjon was wearing a brown striped Button up shirt, a trench coat and a navy scarf.

" should we go then? " asked gjon.

"yeah sure," you nodded, "who's car do we take?"

"we'll take mine." said gjon, grabbing his car keys and putting gohan on his leash.

"do we have to leave him at your parents house?" you ask curiously.

"Yes, he'll get bored alone."

You and gjon got into his car - with gohan in the back of course - and took the short journey to his parents house.

...

Once you had arrived at gjon's parents house, you encouraged gohan out of the car.

Gjon knocked at the door.

Still nothing.

"oh hello, come in you two." said gjon's dad, who had opened the door quite suddenly.

Once you had taken a seat on the couch, the two of you and gjon's dad started a conversation while gohan wondered around.

"so I heard, well, as you may know gjon, your brother ran around the house. But I heard you two were together." he said.

This was awkward..

"yeah.. We are." you said awkwardly.

"that's going to take some getting used to, I've seen you two as best friends for, what is it, eleven years?"

"that's alot." said gjon.

You nodded in agreement.

"you two should probably get going, you don't wanna be late." said gjon's dad.

"that would not be good." you agreed.

"bye gohan, and dad." said gjon.

...

you and gjon traveled up a long winding road through the frozen hills.

"well that was awkward." said gjon.

"your dad was trying to ask in the most friendly way, if you ask people if they're dating, it won't sound the best even if you practiced a speech." you explained.

You appreciated gjon's dad's effort at trying to ask the question of 'are you and gjon dating' without sounding wierd, you had to admit, his parents were incredibly nice.
