"Goodnight, Kurt"
It was 11,30 pm and the two guys were each in their bed, staring at the ceiling.
"Goodnight, Dan"
No sounds. Just the ticking of the clock. No heavy breathing, none of them could sleep.
"Dan?"
"Yes, Kurt?" Dan's voice was irritated, his thought had been interrupted by his new 'friend'.
"Do you miss home?" Kurt asked
"I live in NY"
"I meant, home in England"
Pause. The clock ticked.
"Yes" Dan replied with a sigh.
Just a short word, three letters, one sound, but yet so powerful. In that yes there were all the memories from his childhood: his parents, his brother, his family. The times when he was always happy. And the times when he wasn't.
All his memories suddenly exploeded, making him smile, but bringing a warm tear down his cheek.
"Do you?" he asked back
"I miss my family and my friends, but I certainly don't miss Ohio."
"Someone says home isn't a place"
Another pause.
"I guess they're right"
The two boys didn't talk for another half an hour, lost in their thoughts, letting their hearts race for all the happy moments and break for the sad ones.
And if Kurt and Dan had something in common it was sad moments.
They didn't even try sleeping, knowing it would be useless.
"It's clear that the both of us can't sleep. I brought scrabble if you want." Kurt said, his voice echoing in the silent room.
"Sure"
Kurt got up, took the game out of the suitcase and placed it on Dan's bed.
"Who are you? Mary Poppins? You had an entire wardrobe in that suitcase and even a freaking board game. Take out the houseplants now or they're gonna die soon."
Kurt laughed. It was the first laugh in a very long time. This was his place now, home.
