The entire plane ride, Bruce had practically clung to Vance.

Even though the blonde would probably never admit it, he hated the loss of contact when the plane finally landed.

"Vance! Vance, we're here!" Bruce practically squealed, grabbing his boyfriend's shoulders, shaking him roughly.

Vance groaned, grabbing the ravens hands, pulling them away from his shoulders. "Bruce! I can tell that, so stop shaking me!" He laughed a bit.

The raven unbuckled, standing up excitedly.

Vance sighed, shaking his head, a small smile of amusement still lingering on his lips as he stood up, opening the storage department above them, taking their few bags of luggage out.

He had already long lost Bruce in the crowd of passengers, all eager to get off the plane. "Vance!" He heard suddenly in his ear when he had finally made it off the plane.

He turned his head to every which way, in search of the voice, before he felt a pair of arms wrap around his neck, and a sudden weight on his back.

"Bruce," Vance chuckled at the raven, who giggled in response. "Bruce, as much I love you, you've got to get off my back." The raven pouted, but that had only lasted about a minute before he skipped off, leaving Vance to follow him, not feeling particularly eager to put an end to his boyfriend's excitement. It was kind of cute.

Now, Bruce was running around, pointing out random sights he deemed 'cool' or 'awesome'.

Vance laughed a little. Getting Bruce into a hotel room, more so getting him to rest, was definitely not going to be an easy task.

It had been two days since Bruce and Vance had left to go to New York, and Finney had already begun to feel the loss.

"Finney, mi amor, they'll be back." Robin laughed softly as he cradled the pouting boy lovingly. "But what if they don't!" Finney cried into the boys chest. "What if they decide they like it a lot and- and they move there! Then I'd never see Bruce again!" Robin smiled a bit, shaking his head.

"Finn, you know Bruce loves it here. I'm sure he misses you and Griffin just as much as you miss him." He comforted.

After a minute, Robin noticed the brunette's silence, and took a worried glance down at him, feeling his eyes soften at the sight of his beautiful boyfriend asleep in his arms.

He slowly smiled, craning his neck over to place a gentle kiss on Finney's head. "Goodnight, mi hermoso." He muttered softly in the boys curly locks, allowing his eyes to flutter shut, resting his head on top of the other boys. And while he'd probably never admit it..he kind of missed Vance, too.

He quickly shook the blonde off as he felt himself drift in and out of consciousness, one comforting thought lingering astray in his head. He's alright, Robin.

Minutes away at the Showalter residence, Griffin and Billy lay comfortably on the latter's bed.

Well-- Billy leaning against the headboard, with Griffin in his lap while they played Mortal Kombat against one another.

"No, no, no-- shit!" Billy cursed, slamming his controller down beside him.

Griffin giggled, looking back at the sandy blonde, sticking his tongue out at him.

Billy rolled his eyes, "Whatever. Barak isn't even that good." He huffed, picking his controller back up, selecting Select New Character. Griffin laughed, turning back around, "Uh-huh, I bet 20 bucks you'll say the exact same thing about Scorpion when I beat you." Billy snorted. "I bet 30 I won't." He said snarkily.

Griffin smirked, picking his controller up, selecting his go-to character, Kitana. "Bet."

Let me just say, Griffin had never made so much money in such a short period of time.
