Ben is in the driver's seat, driving his van while Darius is in the passenger seat trying to get a hold of Sammy but with the connection not going through, he really can't. But with Ben on the other hand, he is silent while looking ahead on the road yet it seems like something is bothering him but Darius doesn't notice that "Sammy isn't answering my texts so how are we going to get to her place if I can't even call her because of the bad ass reception."
Darius looks over at Ben, then noticing Ben's body language which makes his gaze soften at the site of something bothering Ben. "Ben..? Are you okay?" Darius spoke in a calm and questioning tone as he looked at Ben who is now gripping the steering wheel but his expression softened at the sound of Darius's voice, his grip softens as well and he gives Darius a small nod but Ben's tension doesn't disappear as it still remains in place.
As Darius watches the tension in Ben, he notices Ben's worried look. Maybe Ben is worried about something or someone? Darius wondered why Ben hadn't said anything during the pass hour. Then again, he never seemed to talk about things unless it was really bothering him. Darius looks out windshield  and onto the road In front again before turning his attention back towards Ben.

"Ben, is there something bothering you? You've been driving silently during the time we have been in the van, What's on your mind?" His voice was comforting enough to make Ben feel at ease but he really felt like something was weighing on his friend. "It's nothing, Darius.. Just tired." He smiles and gives Darius a small, reassuring nod as he then turns his gaze back to the road ahead and he continues to drive.
Darius puts his hand on Ben's shoulder, The tension from Ben's body slowly leaving as his grip on the steering wheel lightened as he feels a lump in his throat, knowing he is about to cry but he doesn't want to cry in front Darius because he finds it slightly uncomfortable to cry in front of his best friend as if he hasn't done it before, he pulls over on the side of the road, He can't hold back his tears anymore so they start to run down his cheek as he parks the van and opens the door of the van and steps off as he closes it behind him, he leans against van as more tears stream down his face and he buries his face into his hands as The tears keep coming down.

Darius sits in silence in the car while looking at his feet but he snaps out of it and he opens the door and steps out of the car and starts to walk around to go comfort Ben, he stops and peaks his head out to look at him and he sees Ben's face burrowed into his hands, his face is a bit red as some tears leak through the cracks of his fingers and onto his shoes. Darius feels bad for Ben and he walks out of his spot and right to Ben's side.

"Ben..?" He placed a hand on his shoulder, Ben's breathing hitches as he continues to sob into his hands, Darius walks up to him and places a hand on his shoulder. "Are you alright, man..?" Darius asks in a comforting tone as he tries to calm Ben down but by the way Ben is sobbing, it breaks Darius's heart to see Ben cry like this.
