—————————

As they got on the highway, the two men sat in silence, the only remnant of sound was the music playing from the radio.

...

It's too quiet here.

"...I'm sorry.", Blain had no particular reason for this. He just felt like it was the appropriate time to say this but he's kinda dumb so it actually wasn't the best time right now lol.

As if Connor wasn't already stressed enough, this was sure to get him that way.

"Wh-what. What are you apologizing for? If anything, I should be the one apologizing- ughhh..." as he sat in silence, his brain racked for a possible response to his man.

"...You know what, we can talk about this later. I need to focus on the road..."

Despite this answer, Blain couldn't help but feel admiration and awe at the fact that Connor remembers where this mystery location is, even more at the fact that he can remain somewhat calm while driving after an event that they had only dreamed of.

.....................................

After a few minutes, they had gotten off of the highway and were sitting at a red light.

In silence.

Of course.

That is, until, Blain spoke up.

"So uh...w-where are we going?"

"Oh uh. We are going to check if my ex is still at his house."

"...Why are we going there then...?"

"Because he would let me crash...despite me literally telling him he can fuck off and rot..." he whispered that last part so that his clingy companion wouldn't feel bad.

"Oh ok."

Admittedly, Blain was a tad jealous hearing about Connors ex, but he pushed these envious thoughts away.

Some time had passed and they had arrived in a shitty little neighborhood in the suburbs of Philadelphia.

Connor parked the stolen car (gta-) in front of a small, worn down 1 story house hidden between large clumps of vines from years of neglectful housekeeping.

The two men stepped out of the vehicle and Connor approached the nasty and worn down welcome mat.

He crouched down and peeled the nasty thing off of the floor and revealed a small hidden key under it

"Well well well...of course your dumbass forgot to get rid of this..." Connor thought to himself.

He grabbed the key and stuck it in the lock and he opened the door carelessly.

"Hey, {REDACTED}, are you in here...?"

Silence.

"{REDACTED}?...you here...?"

Nothing.

"Oh...you know what, this is better than staying with a slob."

"Was he really a slob?"

Connor shot him a sarcastic look

"You have no idea..."

They both burst out into laughter after a few seconds for no particular reason at all. They're dumb like that lolz.

.....................................................

After a few minutes of looking around the house, they had come to the conclusion that {REDACTED} was evicted from the house and didn't have enough time to gather his things and leave. That being said, a lot of furniture had been left behind. Unfortunately, no clothes were in sight , only some somewhat intact coats, so they would have to find some money and buy something random at the nearest Walgreens and call it a day.

Now that they were on the topic of money, where could they find some without getting in too much legal trouble.

[ykw they might have to pull a GTA fr tho— LMFAO ANYWAYS]

Now, they needed money but, being stuck in an elevator for 10 months really does a number on someone. One of those things is sleep deprivation. And it had affected Connor...A LOT. He couldn't remember the last time that he had gotten a good night of sleep aside from that time that he had an emotional breakdown and Blain comforted and held him all night long.

So the two decided to try to get some sleep.

They found a surprisingly well maintained mattress. It wasn't that bad, but it still had a little bit of dirt on it.

Blain dusted it off and threw himself on the bed and dragged Connor on it too.

Connor let out a yelp in protest but it didn't seem to work. He knew it wasn't, he just did it out of pure reaction.

As they both lay there in silence, Connor could feel the slight breathing of the blond on his neck. He didn't mind though, Blain needed the sleep and so did he. Blain hugged Connor closer to his body for warmth, due to the fact that there wasn't any blankets in the abandoned house. Connor let out a quiet whimper in response to his lover clutching him closer to his body. They both drifted off to sleep peacefully through the night.

They just wanted to lose all thought and stress. They could worry about getting money later, but for now, they were regaining precious hours of sleep that they had lost months before. (Knowing them, they would probably wake up a week later-).

Well, they would see what they could do in the morning...or afternoon.

:p
