The Boyfriend's Death

"Are we seriously doing this right now?" Devin giggled.

"Yes," Ricky replied with a grin.

"I feel like I'm in some stupid teen movie," Devin responded.

"Hey, it's not really my fault that your dad 'doesn't approve' of me," Ricky chuckled slightly.

Ricky hopped into the driver's side of his car, taking a quick glance at his boyfriend, who was now in his passenger seat.

"Come on, trust me, this is gonna be fun," Ricky spoke softly.

"Yeah, until I get caught walking through the front door after curfew," Devin huffed.

"Just go back in through the window," Ricky said jokingly, earning him a scowl from the boy next to him. "Come on, just forget about your dad for a little while, it'll help you."

"I wish it was that simple," Devin sighed.

"Hey, if you're really that worried, just head back inside," Ricky told him with a sympathetic smile. "We can always go sneak around some other night, you know. Plus, the longer we both just sit out here, the quicker he'll realize I'm here," he joked.

"No, no, I wanna be with you tonight," Devin sighed. "I'd definitely rather spend the night with you than cooped up in my room all night."

"Now that's what I like to hear," Ricky smirked.

Ricky turned his key, which was already in the ignition, starting up his engine once more. He was quick to pull out of the driveway, of course, not particularly keen on getting caught sneaking Devin out of the house.

"So, where are we going, exactly?" Devin asked curiously as the shorter boy began to drive.

"Nowhere in particular," Ricky said with a shrug. "We're just gonna see where the night takes us, I suppose."

"That sounded so corny," Devin replied, a soft laugh following soon after.

"Oh, come on, you love it," Ricky teased.

Devin simply rolled his eyes, directing his attention back to the road ahead of them. Ricky seemed to be driving someplace out of town, unfamiliar to him. The longer he drove, the darker the world outside seemed to get.

The further out of town the pair drove, the less lights were present. It didn't take long for Ricky's headlights to be the only light source around besides the moon. The older boy decided that it might be a good choice to find a destination soon, rather than to continue driving in the darkness.

Of course, there weren't any interesting destinations to choose from where they were now. The aimless driving Ricky saw in the movies looked relaxing and romantic; this, though, wasn't quite like that. It just wasn't as nice as he was expecting it to be. Maybe it was because the sun had already set hours ago. Maybe it was because he chose the most boring area he knew of to drive through. Either way, it was starting to get quite dull to him.

Although it may not have been Ricky's best choice, the nearby woods were just calling his name. It may have been in his best interest to keep driving until he found somewhere more interesting, but Ricky decided that he had had enough driving the for the time being. On top of that, Devin almost looked like he was ready to fall asleep, and it wasn't even eleven o'clock yet. If he wanted to make the most of his time with his boyfriend, he needed to decide on something fast.

So, the woods it was.

Ricky pulled into a more bare area in the woods, leaves and twigs crunching underneath the wheels of his truck. The minor shaking of the vehicle was enough to snap Devin out of his tired daze, turning his head to look at the smaller boy.
