Travis and Ethan were sitting on the balcony.
"Can you believe it's our last day in New York?"
"Time flies quickly, doesn't it?"
"Yeah. I wish we had been able to see about three more plays."
"I wish we could've seen the Statue of Liberty."
"All for another time."
"Are you saying that you'll take me back?"
"I don't have the money to right now, Ethan."
"Didn't your moms win a lottery?"
"..."
"..."
"Oh."
Ethan ruffled Travis's hair.
"You dork."
"You know you love it."
"If it helps you sleep."
"Hey!"
Ethan laughed.
"What was your favorite part of the trip?"
"Either the play or seeing you shirtless."
"Fuck off, Travis."
"What about you?"
"Definitely the play. I'll be nicer to my drama teacher."
"You weren't nice to her in the first place?"
"I mean I was, but I was judging the book by her cover."
"I want to meet her now."
"Maybe you can some day."
Travis laid his head on Ethan's shoulder.
"Someday."
