After leaving a gracious tip, we left Denny's to get back on the road. Toby was a little less tense now, and I didn't have to suffer with an empty stomach. My eyes were aching for sleep, but I pushed down that feeling by chugging the rest of an energy drink.

When we got in the car, I sighed, straining to keep my eyes open. I backed out of the parking lot, thinking about how comfortable my bed sounds.

Toby sat in the back seat, drinking some of his chocolate milk and gazing out the window. His eyes went to the plethora of things they drove past.

I yawned again and decided fuck it. I turned off the highway again and went into the nearby strip mall, where they had a mattress store.

"I'll be back." I said, popping the trunk and going to my safe.

Toby followed me with his eyes but didn't comment on where I was going.

I opened the padlock to the safe, revealing stacks of hundreds tucked away neatly. I pulled out around ten thousand before tucking it into my pocket and closing the trunk.

I walked to a mattress store, glancing around until I found a small, twin-sized mattress. I went up to the store clerk, putting the stack of bills on the counter.

"Give me that one, no questions." I said firmly, pointing to the small mattress.

The clerk looked down at the bills before putting his hand over them. He nodded, sticking the bills in the register before gesturing to the mattress.

"It's all yours." He said, gawking at the amount of money.

I smirked and went over to the mattress, picking it up and carrying it out of the store without a word. As I walked through the parking lot, I saw Toby's confused face against the window. When I got to his door, I gestured for him to come out.

"What is this for?" Toby asked, opening the car door and getting out. His hand went up to his mouth as he decided to gnaw away the stress.

I smirked and lined up the bed with the back seat, shoving it into place.

"It's for sleeping." I said, sighing as the mattress was jam packed in the backseat. I sighed, feeling exhaustion taking over. I crawled into the backseat, lying on the mattress, and closing my eyes. "I only need a minute..." I mumbled, feeling my limbs going lax.

Toby watched, tilting his head. He looks around the parking lot, then at the sun.

"You're like an owl." Toby muttered, biting his short nails.

I chuckled faintly as I drifted off slowly, still wearing my uncomfortable clothes.

I woke up hours later, feeling disoriented and uncomfortable. A thin layer of sweat was covering my body from being stuck in the car with summer heat. I groaned with a stretch, opening my eyes to look around.

The car door was shut, and there was a weight on my body. I turned my head to look over my shoulder, and my eyes widened at what I saw. Toby was lying on my back, fast asleep. His head was against my shoulder blades, and his legs were tangled with mine.

My face was flooded with warmth, but I didn't make any move to push him off. I was still sticky and uncomfortable from the heat, and the cuddling and blushing didn't help with that.

I glanced around and reached my arm to roll down a window, but it didn't move since the car wasn't on. I started to feel a bit claustrophobic, being stuck and not wanting Toby to wake up and freak out.

My face flushed again, and I reached down, pulling off my thin jacket and tossing them to the corner of the mattress. I could hear Toby mumble in his sleep as his face was pressed to the muscles on my back. I exhaled into the mattress, trying to relax and think through this rationally.

This isn't what I expected to happen when I bought the mattress.

Toby's POV:

When my eyes fluttered open to the bright sunlight, I grumbled and brought my hand up to rub my eyes. I closed them again and rubbed my face against Y/N's back. My eyes opened back up when my cheek met the smoothness of skin and not fabric.

I froze, looking at the soft muscles on Y/N's back, before sitting up slightly. I still had to stay slightly bent over because of the car roof, and my legs were on either side of Y/N's.

I had been so comfortable I didn't realize I fell asleep.

I looked down at his sleeping form at the thin layer of sweat that made his muscles shine, and my stomach knotted in embarrassment.

My heart drummed in my chest, and I traced my calloused fingers down his spine, trying to be gentle enough not to wake him. I shivered at the feeling of his exposed skin before reaching down to my sides and pulling off my jacket.

My body was much more scrawny than his, and that thought made my face flush.

I laid back down with my chest pressed against him. He was so strong, but also so soft. I leaned my face into the crook of his neck, inhaling deeply as I wrapped my arms around his stomach. A chill washed down my spine when I felt the smooth abs on his stomach.

As I tried to compose myself, Y/N stirred beneath me, and guilt overshadowed my arousal. I moved back, sitting on the mattress and looking out the window to distract my mind.

Y/N woke with a look of confusion, and he looked at me. I could tell he was probably questioning why I was on top of him or why I'm shirtless as well.

"It's hot as hell in this car, huh?" Y/N mumbled, wiping the sweet from his forehead and rolling onto his back. He leaned into the front seat, fiddling with the keys to turn the car on.

I cursed my eyes for looking directly at his rear when he did.

"I couldn't tell," I mumbled, hugging my knees to my chest as my body still tingled where our skin touched.

Y/N sighed as the air conditioning blasted through the car. He crawled into the driver's seat, angling the vents toward his face.

"Oh yeah, I forgot about your CIPA," he said, adjusting in his seat and starting to drive.

My face flushed with another wave of embarrassment when Y/N didn't put his shirt back on, but I felt a pang of disappointment when he didn't say anything about the shirtless cuddling.

"Yeah," I said quietly, adjusting how I sat to cover up the bulge in my boxers. I gulped, praying to everything that my arousal wasn't too obvious.
