//Troye's POV//
Guess what?
We're lost. Yay...
"Pull over!"
"Turn left now!"
"The GPS says different!"
"Ahhhhhhh"
Everyone was yelling different directions to Zoe who was desperately trying to get off this freeway safetly.
"Zoe, just pull the car over. I will drive. I remember how to get to the house from here." Connor speaks up from next to me.
Safely and effortlessly, Zoe pulls to the side of the freeway. Luckily, not many cars are driving by at the moment.
I feel the pang in my chest when Connor switches to the front, no longer by my side.
After Connor got more sense of direction he effortlessly drove to our new home.
---
Connor and I would be living here for a while, then when he turns 18 he would be able to legally watch over me. Not much would have changed seeing as he has been my only form of support for over a year, and my 'foster parents' are complete douche faces.
As for Alfie and Zoe, they had talked to there parents and convinced them to let 'Zalfie' go on a "rode trip with Connor and Troye" for the summer.
Not after long we had arrived at the old house that I spent many days of my young life at. I always loved it here. I can't think of one bad memory or moment I had in this house. It was always filled with love and laughter.
Pulling into the driveway I see that the grass was still a strong evergreen, quite strange as no one had lived in the house for a few years. As if reading my mind, Connor takes the keys out of the ignition and turns toward Zoe and me in the back seat, "Andrew said that he had a gardening service come over and fix the front and back yard."
I simply nod in response before we all get out of the Jeep SUV.
Memories flood back of me jumping out of the car, excited to have another sleepover with my best friend. Our moms laughing together on the front porch, talking about all the recent gossip. Connor and I chasing after each other. What else did you expect from a couple of 7 years olds?
I shake my head, getting rid of the old times. Time to focus on now.
I grab my overly expensive and extravagant birthday gift from the most amazing best friend ever. Alfie and Zoe offering to get the suitcases. Connor just looking up at his childhood home.
His stance seems sad almost. Staring but not necessarily focusing on anything. He always tried putting on this tough guy act, saying he was fine whenever Kayla and Jacob yelled at him, acting as if he was never hurt, never letting his real emotions show.
But I knew different, I heard the late night sniffles, I saw his puffy eyes, I noticed how much pressure he put on himself everyday to be this unknown object of 'perfection'. He lets out a sniffle which confirmd my theory that he was sad.
"Con?" I walk behind him. Nervous tapping him on the shoulder. I don't know anyone who wouldn't be sad right now. The last time he has been at this house, he was wearing a black suit, mourning over his parents death.
He quickly wiped his eyes with his jumper sleeve turning around slowly, eyes pulling over in tears. "Are you okay Tro?"
He asks if I'm okay when he is the one in tears. He is one of the best people ever. He is always there to support me and comfort me when I'm down. Now, its time for me to be there for him.
I wrap my arms around his shorter frame, at first tenses up but then quickly relaxing into my arms, ducking his head into my neck. Even though the circumstances, I can feel myself full of joy. I rub soothing circles into his back, humming softly in his ear. My eyes closed, wishing I would be able to stay in this moment forever.
I could feel Zoe and Alfie's staring in the back of my head, probably taking pictures no doubt. But I didn't care, I wasn't going to let anything ruin this moment for me.
"I miss them Troye." He whispers so softly that I wouldn't have been able to hear him if he wasn't in my arms.
I internally sigh knowing I need to push all my feelings for Connor to the side and comfort my best friend. "I know Connor. I miss them too."
I can feel his tears soak into my shirt as he shakes in my arms. "I would be lost without you Troye boy." He lightly giggles into my neck before he pulls away.
Embarrassed, he looks down at the floor. With a delicate touch of my index finger, I lift his gaze to meet mine. "I'll always be here to find you."

Yooooo!
Wild is a thing on this earth and I'm definitely living for it!
