By time the two have gotten to Sal's house, the both of them have calmed down. It was around 7 pm and Sal's dad was in his own room, probably working on something important. The two entered Sal's room that was decorating in posters. Travis liked his boyfriend's room. He wish his dad would let him decorate his own room. A vase filled with blue flowers that were resting next to Sal's tv caught Travis' eye. He smiled.

"Hey! Those are my favorite flowers!" he beamed.

Sal glances at the flowers then Travis, smiling slightly behind his mask.

"You got those for me about a week after we started going out. I remember because you were all flustered," Sal laughs softly.

"I'm surprised they're still alive," Travis says as he sits on the floor. 

"Yeah, me too, I had to replace the water with dirt because after awhile the water wasn't doing it for them," the blue boy responds.

"That's my favorite flower. The forget-me-not," Travis smiles sweetly.

Sal hums in agreement. He crawls onto Travis' lap and rests his head against the other's chest and sighs.

It definitely has been a long day. 

Travis reaches for Sal's hand and the two holds hands, sitting in comfortable silence for a bit. Gizmo crawled over and lays down next to the two. Travis pets Gizmo with his free hand, causing the cat to purr gently. 

"Travis," Sal mumbles.

"Yeah, Sally Face?"

"Can you remove my prosthetic for me? I'm comfortable right now and don't want to move."

Travis nods and stops petting Gizmo much to Gizmo's dismay. With his free hand, he goes to unbuckle the prosthetic, being extra cautious. He removes the mask and places it next to the two. In the meantime, Sal took out his pigtails. Sal is able to more comfortably rest his head against Travis chest now. Sal's electric blue hair went up to his shoulders and Travis pushed a strand of his hair out of Sal's face-or what was left of it. Travis tenderly runs his hand through Sal's hair causing the boy the shiver. 

"Sal," Travis whispers.

"Yeah?"

"I love you."

Sal smiles looks up at Travis. 

"I love you too!"

Hours pass with the two talking, then playing video games, and  watching movies. Eventually, it is 2 a.m. By now, Travis has dozed off, his arms securely wrapped around Sal's waist. Travis' head is buried in the back of Sal's neck. Sal has tried to sleep but failed. The tv was turned off an hour ago. Sally Face loosens Travis' grip and gets up from the bed. The sudden absence of warmth causes him to shiver. He heads over to the kitchen and pours himself a cup of water. He then heads back to the room, taking a sip of water before placing it on his night stand. Sal lays next to Travis but this time Gizmo jumps up onto the bed and lays in between the two. Although it takes some time, Sal is finally able to fall asleep.

Sal wakes up at 9 a.m. and finds himself taking up 60% of the bed. Travis is at the edge, holding onto Sal still. Gizmo must've moved to the couch because when he woke up, Gizmo wasn't there. Travis is snoring softly and Sal sits up. He gently shakes him.

"Honey, wake up.." he whispers.

Travis mumbles but still remains asleep.

He shakes him again.

"Sal..I'm tired..I wanna cuddle some more.." he mumbles only half awake. 

Sal chuckles quietly.

"Ok, ok, but only for another hour."

The two slept until 3 p.m.
