Before leaving the hotel room Ben turned to Toby. "Can I trust you with something?" he asked, looking up at the taller boy, who raised a brow.

"Sure, what's up?" 

"Can.. I trust you with my heart?" he asked making the taller boy giggle.

 "Awe that's swe-" Ben shook his head, cutting him off as he produced the glass heart on string to Toby making him blink. "Ooh you meant- I see. My bad yea, why?" 

"Just.. Keep it safe for me, okay?"

"I- sure man"

Toby found himself leaning down for the shorter boy to put the necklace around his neck, as he stood he tucked it into his sweater before the boys started their short walk to the waffle house that stood just down the road, Toby was humming a small tune to himself before his eyes suddenly flicked down to the shorter male next to him as he placed his hands in his pockets. 

"How tall are you?" Toby asked softly with a chuckle. Ben glanced up at the boy.

 "Uh, I think about 5'3? " Ben rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly. "You?"

"5'8, aand still growing. I think I might get about 6 foot at this rate." Toby gave Ben a smirk as he pulled his goggles on, fixing his fluffy hair in the process- Ben noticed that his fingernails were painted black- something he never paid attention to before.  "You're way too tall" Ben huffed, prompting for the boy to chuckle a little.

"It-it's not my fault, I'm just a growing boy, and you really are just a elf. I was just curious is all. You and Y/n are short as hell, even Kate is taller, I-I just find it really sweet, " Toby teased, holding the door open for Ben. "After you, shortie" 

Ben rolled his eyes at this but entered the café anyway, taking their seats in the corner away from everyone, Toby took to ordering damn near twelve waffles while Ben simply asked for a cup of coffee. He sipped on his drink slowly, finally in bliss over the access to cream and sugar.

"Did you really need that many waffles?" Ben asked, raising a brow. 

"Can't you let a boy live?" Toby pouted as he poured a copious amount of syrup over the stack. 

"I mean, if you can even eat all th-"

"Watch me do it, coward" Toby smirked at the boy before  he began to dig into his food, being sure to  relish the food he drowned in way too much syrup as Ben timidly sipped on his coffee, both of them were silent for a moment, before Ben spoke up. 

"I think I know where Y/n is we might be able to meet up with them soon."

"Oh ya?" Toby swallowed his cheek full of waffle, sipping his cup of milk as he looked at Ben with interest. 

"We should meet u with them after"

"Hm" he paused, taking another sticky bite, licking his upper lip as he had. "I think, we need to talk fir-first" he gave Ben a brief dopey smile, his eyes blood shot and red looked odd under the orange goggles. 

Ben raised a confused brow. " Bout what?" he asked, wondering what else the twitchy boy could possibly want from him. 

"Bout Y/n of course, d-don't be dumb. And you, you n-narcissist" He chuckles softly, picking up another sticky bite, as he began to talk a bit with his mouth full.  "You. You tend tooo... To chreat- sorry, treat-" he pauses as he swallowed aback some of his food, having realized he bit off too much for himself to handle- it was always like him to over compensate when excited though, the energetic man couldn't help it. He began to speak again.
