SABER AND NOAH SAT IN THE BACK OF sabers mommas car, euphor by novo amor playing through the airpods they were sharing. they were currently on their way to drop noah off at the airport.

their hands were interlocked as noah's head rested on sabers shoulder, he was tired from staying up with him the past few nights due to his anxiety kicking in from the drama on twitter and other platforms. he had obviously told him that it was okay for him to rest but he refused to sleep for long, so he'd only gotten a total of around seven hours sleep over the past few days.

a small smile was etched on his face as he peered down at him, his eyes gently closed with his lips parted slightly. he really was beautiful. saber had always thought so honestly, from when he'd seen him walking down the halls with his volleyball friends to when he was always asking them for a pencil. but now, he was more beautiful than ever.

"you going to miss him?" connie asked from the drivers seat, she looked into the mirror for a split second, silently aww'ing at the sight of the boy who had fallen asleep on saber. "yeah, so much" he whispered, not wanting to wake him up. he deserved his rest after putting up with his constant anxiety the past two days. ellie turned around since she was in the passenger seat and gave him a knowing smile, not saying a word just in case noah woke up at the wrong time.

the car then fell silent again, a comfortable silence, one the family were used to. they weren't the type of family that needed constant noise to function, they were able to just sit in each other's company without talking and still feel as happy and content as an upbeat and chatty family. saber picked up noah's phone and unlocked it ( they gave each other their passwords a previous day ) and went to change the song that was playing, he felt it was too depressing and was making him sadder than he already was.

he smiled to himself as he clicked on his 'travelling' playlist and played gimme love by joji, one of his favourite artists by far. as the familiar tune started to flood his ears, he felt noah lift his head from his shoulder and rub his eyes softly, a yawn escaping from between his lips. "morning handsome" he said, the smile still etched on his face.

noah turned his face to look at him, returning the smile and said a soft "shut up". he stretched his arms out the best he could for being sat in the back of a car, while being sat between two other teenagers. oh yeah, layla was also in the car but had fallen asleep as soon as they set off for the airport so everyone was leaving her be.

"are we nearly there?" he asked connie, his voice a little hoarse from not using it for a while. "yeah we are sweetheart, just a few more minutes" she replied, tapping her thumbs on the steering wheel. the situation they were in was unusual for all of them. ranboo had never been to an airport without his family before, let alone left the country, while the mayfield family hadn't set foot in an airport since they moved to san fran when saber was five ( layla being three ).
