Young Folks (Ross Lynch AU)

twenty-three.

"Aspen," Ross mumbled, his arm twitching. I smiled sleepily and kissed his cheek, reassuring him in his unconscious state.

"Aspen," he repeated, louder this time, a hint of distress laced in his words. His leg twitched, as did his right eye.

"Ross," I whispered, shaking his body slightly, hoping he would wake up. He just turned in response, not showing any signs of being half awake. "Ross."

I said his name louder, shaking a bit more. A whimper escaped his lips, and I shook him more, praying he would wake up.

"Aspen!" Ross yelled as his eyes shot open and he sat straight up. He looked around frantically before his eyes adjusted to the darkness and his gaze fell upon me. He noticeably relax and grabbed my face with both his hands before planting his lips upon mine firmly.

"What's wrong babe?" I mumbled against his lips as he tried to kiss me harder. "Ross," I whispered and pulled away, "what's wrong?"

"I-I just had a nightmare th-that you got hurt, a-and I couldn't do anything to stop it and I just had to sit there and watch you suffer, and-"

"Shh," I cut him off, laying a finger upon his lips. "It was all just a dream. I'm right here, okay? And as much as I know you would love to get rid of me, I'm not going anywhere for a while. Well, not unless someone finds us in this barren wasteland anytime soon," I laughed, kissing his jaw quickly.

"Speaking of which," I continued on, "how long have we been here?"

"I'd guess roughly two weeks," Ross stated, shrugging.

"Someone's bound to be here soon then. Believe it or not, this place is hoppin'!" I joked. Ross chuckled from beside me and shook his head.

"You're too cute," he laughed before kissing my forehead. I then laid back down on the bed and turned so I was lying on my side.

"Wha-what are you doing?" Ross asked. "Bro, I was just getting started!"

"Sorry, Blondie, but I'm going back to bed. I'm exhausted, and I don't want to miss out on sleep just because my boyfriend is a horny little fuck who can't keep it in his pants," I teased. I heard him heave a sigh before flopping down next to me and grabbing my waist, pulling my toward him and spooning me from behind. I could feel his dick poking at my ass, and I chuckled softly.

"Told you you're a horny little fuck," I joked.

"Maybe, but I'm your horny little fuck, and you're stuck with me until we get out of here," Ross chuckled.

"Dammit," I cursed under my breath, and I felt Ross shake next to me, laughing.

"Goodnight, Aspen," he giggled, planting a kiss on my cheek.

"Try to contain yourself tonight, okay? I know it's hard because I'm the sexiest person alive and you haven't gotten any in the last two months, but that doesn't mea-"

"GOODNIGHT, ASPEN!" Ross repeated loudly, cutting me off and silently begging me to stop. I giggled and poked his stomach.

"Goodnight, Blondie."

"Do you want to go on a little endeavor today?" Ross asked as I ate a few berries from our rations for breakfast.

"Sure, why not," I shrugged. I threw my hair up into a messy bun and pulled my sweatshirt over my head. Ross then grabbed his camera, which was sitting on the counter, and handed me mine as well.

"Ready?" He asked.

"No," I joked, slipping the strap over my head so the camera was dangling from my neck. I then grabbed his hand and pulled him out of the bus.

"So do you know where we're going on this 'little endeavor'?" I asked.

"Nope!" Ross grinned and pulled me alongside him.

"If you get us fucking lost I swear to god you will not live to see another day," I warned.

"Yes Sir!" Ross saluted me, cracking a smile. I just shoved him lightly, causing him to lose his footing.

"Getting a little tipsy, now are we? You better lay off the drinks, Blondie, it's only 9:30!" I teased.

"Sorry," he slurred, playing along, "I-I just can't. The alcohol is s-so addicting."

"Stupid ass," I laughed and pushed him again.

"You love me anyway," Ross winked.

"OUT THE BACK DOOR GOD DAMN! BUT I LOVE HER ANYWAY!" I sang at the top of my lungs.

"And there goes any chance of seeing wildlife," he mused, shaking his head and chuckling. He then caught my gaze and winked at me before bursting out into the course of "Miss Jackson."

I quickly joined him as we hiked along an unknown trail, going our own way, ready for anything that would come our way.
