September 23rd

Sam gets a call from Liam.

He stares at it as it rings.

His phone shifts, moving ever so slightly against the bedside table as it vibrates.

Edging to the end of the table he sighs heavily snatching it up.

"Hi Liam, why'd you call?" Sam asks, leaning back against his headboard.

"No reason in particular, just wanted to talk."

Sam hums, gently closing his eyes as he holds his phone to his ear.

A beat of silence goes by and a question as to why he even answered crosses Sam's mind.

"I miss you, you know" Liam finally speaks.

"Mh'" Sam hums.

This feels unfair to him.

"I miss you too" he whispers back, he's not trying to stir something up.

"You okay?" Liam laughs softly in confusion.

"Yeah" Sam says, his brows furrowing as he looks at the ceiling.

"Really? Cause you hesitated."

"Huh? no I didn't? when?"

Liam sighs.

"When you said you missed me.. do you not miss me?"

Sam shakes his head with a small sigh.

Of course it still goes wrong.

"Liam, don't start an argument, of course I miss you, why wouldn't I?"

Liam hums.

"Your right.. I- I'm sorry" Sam hums letting his eyes close once again.

He dodged it.

"Okay, well, how was your day?" Sam asks.

"It was good I suppose, I worked" Sam hums listening to what had happened while on his shift, him talking about annoying customers and his coworkers.

"Well, that's not good" Sam says hearing how someone had given them fake money and they failed to notice with how busy it was.

"Yeah, but enough about that, how was your day? hm? do anything fun today?"

Sam shakes his head despite him not able to see "no," he murmurs gently.

"I didn't do too much, but I think Colby will be coming over soon" Sam speaks, the other boy already knowing about said boy, Sam telling him about him prior to sharing a call together a few days back.

As if on cue, the mentioned brunette walks through the door with a smile.

"Hi Sammy" he grins, kicking off his shoes.

Sam smiles, giving him a small wave, listening to the boy on the line.

"Who's that?" Colby questions motioning to the phone in hand as he crawls in the bed.

"Liam" he answers.

"Oh" Colby hums, gently laying his head on Sam's lap.

"Again?" Liam speaks with annoyance making Sam furrows his brows.

He gently tangles his fingers in Colbys soft hair.

"Uh yeah?" he answers.

"I'm so tired" Colby mumbles glancing up at Sam and smiling as he gently scratches his head.
