Timing Fate-Fillie

First Stop

Heeeellllllloooooooo!!!!! Well I got bored and decided to update, which I probably do too much. Anyways, I hope you guys enjoy!

ONTO THE STORY!

A few hours and a dozen cups of coffee later, the boys were almost to the hospital in Oregon. The main emergency room, anyways. They'd have to make several stops across Oregon, but it was worth it.

Finn blinked his tired eyes, downing the rest of his coffee. The radio was playing soft music, which Gaten had turned on, and it was definitely not helping Finn stay awake.

Gaten and Caleb were currently dozing off, each looking peaceful in their sleep. Caleb had offered to drive to let Finn rest, but the uneasiness in Finn's stomach caused him to say no. He couldn't sleep.

They finally pulled into a parking lot, which had dozens among dozens of cars already there.

Finn yawned, putting the car in park and taking the keys out, causing the once active, buzzing vehicle to become lifeless.

Finn turned his head to look at his friends, letting out a tired sigh.

He reached over and gently shook Caleb's shoulder. Fortunately, Caleb was a light sleeper, and he startled awake, eyes wide and alert.

"We're here." Finn mumbled. He was exhausted.

"Alright." Caleb nodded, unbuckling and opening his door. "I'll get Gaten."

"You sure?" Finn asked.

Whereas Caleb was a light sleeper, Gaten was the exact opposite. Finn was pretty sure he could sleep through an explosion if they were to ever try dropping a bomb on his house.

"Yeah, I got it." Caleb answered with a small smile.

He opened Gaten's door to find him splayed out across the back seat, limbs sprawled in every direction.

Caleb chuckled at the sight, and Finn walked around the car to join him, his curiosity piqued as he wondered how Caleb would wake Gaten.

As a test, Finn clapped his hands right next to Gaten's ear, and exacted no response from the boy.

"Give me a second." Caleb said, rushing around the back to open the trunk.

"I was prepared for this." He called out as he fished around through all the bags.

"Aha!" He finally gave a small cry of victory.

He shut the trunk and walked back over to where Finn was standing, looking at Gaten oddly.

Caleb looked at Finn with a sly smirk, motioning him to cover his ears.

Although confused, Finn complied, cupping his hands over his ears.

Caleb leaned down to where Gaten's head was resting, pulling out the object he had retrieved from the trunk.

Finn finally got a good look at the object as Caleb held it out next to Gaten's ear.

An air horn.

Caleb smirked and pressed down on it, causing it to make a loud, jarring, blaring noise.

Gaten just groaned, rolling over.

Forget the bomb, he might be able to sleep through the apocalypse.

"Huh, thought for sure that would've worked." Caleb turned to Finn with a shrug. "Any other ideas?"

"Ugh, five more minutes..." They heard Gaten grumble as he turned over once again.
