Until Dawn-I Won't Leave You Behind /Josh x Chris

Just rest.

Author's note:I'm sorry for the short and slow update. A bunch of things had happened in the pass few hours. Also, should I do my own original story and publish it or do another fanfiction? If another fanfiction, what pairings? /character x reader counts/

As the quiet time passed, soon they reached their destination. The cab eased to a stop in front of Chris' apartment. Chris reached into his pocket and pulled out the few loose dollars he found, handing it to the driver.

"This is all I have, right now. I'll call the garage once I get the rest of the money."

The driver refused the money. "Keep it, kid. You use it to take care of yourselves."

Chris smiled. "Thank you so much, I won't forget this." Chris said as he eased out of the car. Instead of waking Josh, he decided to gently pull his friend out of the cab enough so the blonde could pick the sleeping male up.

Chris held Josh in his arms, like a groom would carry a bride. Chris nudged the cab door shut and began to walk up the stairs, to his apartment door. Carefully, he opened the door and walked into the dim-litted entry. Closing the door with his foot, he grunted as he made his way through obstacles to get to his bedroom.

"You're heavier than you look, you know.." Chris complained to himself as he reached the bedroom.

Making his way to the bed, he set his sleeping friend on the messy sheets of the bed. Chris watched Josh for a moment, watching his breathing. Josh's lips were parted slightly, snoring quietly. Chris oddly thoguht that the quiet snores were quite cute. A soft, loving smile seemed to creep upon Chris' lips as he sat on the edge of the single sized bed. Chris attempted to take the first coat off of Josh but when he gently tugged the coat, Josh's eyes shot open.

Chris gasped. "Sorry, I didn't mean to wake you." He spoke quietly, not wanting to startle Josh more.

A sleepy smile eased upon Josh's lips as he stared at Chris with his half-lidded eyes. "It's alright, though you were trying to strip me." Josh joked.

"I only thought you would turn into a hotpocket if you continued to wear those thick coats while you slept."
Josh groaned. "Uhhg, now you're making me hungry."

"I'll make you something to eat. Mean time, you take a shower. You smell terrible." Chris teased as he eased off the bed, walking out of the bedroom and into the kitchen.

"You don't smell any better, princess." Josh teased back as he stood. Josh walked into the bathroom that was right next to the bedroom, he turned on the light, flinching at the sudden brightness.

The tired male groaned a bit as he began to undress, though the door was still wide open. Chris has seen Josh nude before and vis versa, well..in 8th grade. Their bodies have changed a lot since then; they've become more tone, more soft, more tough yet still sensitive. Josh placed the pile of dirty clothes off to the side and stood there, nude.

Josh looked at his bruise, bloodied, dirty cut skin and frowned. "Disgusting. .. "

Josh stretched put his arms, popping his back which made him whimper a bit. Once he was good and ready, he stepped into the tub which had a shower head on the wall. Josh turned the water nobs and checked the water with his hand until it was good and warm before he turned another nob to turn on the shower.

The water began to rain down upon Josh's dirty black hair, the water trailed down the scarred skin. A quiet pained moan passed his lips as the warm water dripped over his wounds. Blood, dirt and water stained the tub floor he stood upon; Josh watched the mixture swirl down the drain.
