"We should go on a road trip."
"Hmwha..?" Ethan remarks, seemingly half asleep on the couch.
"All of us! It'd be fantastic, right?"
"Oh, yaya," Ethan yawns.
Ethan stretches while Tyler sits down beside Ethan on the couch. He intertwined his hands together, hunching his back slightly. His face shifts and turns a little more somber. Ethan notices and listens in a little more closely.
Tyler takes a deep breath before speaking.
"So.. I've been wanting to get away from L.A for a while and I feel like I need a break. " He pauses."
"I know I don't make videos and only live stream every now and then but I just... need to get away from this busy city."
Ethan raises his eyebrows, surprised.
"You know?" He looks over Ethan's face, trying to find any signs of him understanding.
He sighs. "Don't get me wrong - I love L.A, I just feel a little worn out."
"I know how you feel," Ethan says, with understanding. Tyler leans back and relaxes.
"Anyway, Mark said that Jack is in town and it would feel rude to not invite him."
"Cool cool cool cool." Ethan thinks for a moment.
"How about.. we take you, me, Amy, Mark, Jack, Kathryn, Bob and Wade?"
"Perfect." Tyler said in a half whisper.
"Just like you," Ethan exhales under his breath. Ethan then coughs loudly making sure to cover up his whisper. For a moment, Ethan believes Tyler hadn't heard him - until he sees Tyler's face heat up. Feeling awkward, Tyler coughs and continues to discuss the plan for their road trip.
"So, we're gonna need a bunch of food, I should go out." Tyler says, his mind still on what Ethan had said.
"Today? Well I guess I've got nothing on." He says, trying to remember if he has any plans.
"Alright, let's do it! I'll text them." Ethan smiles.
"It feels really good to be doing something for myself." Ethan comments, hopping up from his seat.
He writes out the text, double-checks it with Tyler and sends it.
And in seconds, the replies flood in.
"Everyone's on their phones today" Ethan chuckles, tutting.
His warm smile vanishes and slowly turns into a frown as he reads through each reply.
"Damn, everyone seems to be busy except Mark. I guess it is a little spontaneous," Ethan says with a sigh.
