Michael and Jeremy come back later that morning and Jeremy almost pukes when he walks in.
"What the hell??" Michael almost slips in it.
"jeSUS -" Jeremy gags. Jared is knocked out. Michael turns and immediately gets to finding something to clean it up. He cannot stand this. Conner sits up groggily.
"Fuck, what time is it?"
"9:30. What the fuck happened last night?"
"Uh... A bottle of Advil and a telephone screaming match."
"......huh?"
"Don't worry about it. It was a rough night."
"O...Kay."
"Dear God this smells like ass." It gets cleaned up soon. Michael gags.
"Where's my air freshener??"
"Under the bed." He dives for it.
"Thank God. You guys are lucky I smoke weed in here." Evan gets up and Jared just lays in bed. Thinking about the night before. Evan kisses Jared's forehead and then Conner's cheek. Conner makes a noise.
"Shave. Please."
"Nope."
"Evaaaaaan."
"I vote shave. It's itchy when you kiss me."
"That's two to one. Shave."
"Yknow, maybe you guys agreeing isn't such a good thing... "
"Shave Evan."
"Fine... You just don't want me to look manly when I go back to Yellowstone..."
"When you what? "
"You're going back to Yellowstone?" He's sounds panicked. Evan swivels around again.
"N-Not forever! I just... They're short on staff and asked me to come help, so... It won't be forever!"
"........." what is Jared supposed to do when he's gone??
"It's not even that soon, it's... It's in two weeks." "
"Evan, you didn't think to tell us before??"
"They called yesterday!"
"Okay okay. I can stay calm." Evan sits back down, putting a hand on Jared's knee.
"It's not for very long, I just... I really care about that park and everybody or there..."
"I know I know just... how long are you gonna be gone?"
"Three weeks, a month maybe?"
"Evan, a month??"
"Evan!!"
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry, I know it's a long time -"
"Damn right it is!" Jared doesn't know if he can last that long. Evan's the only one keeping him alive not by force.
"It'll be all right, I'll call twice a day, I'll stay in constant communication."
