Jack groaned, his head feeling heavy and dizzy once he opened his eyes to the early morning. He rubbed his forehead with his fingers, trying to easen out his hangover.

He suddenly remembered he was fully naked, feeling warmth at both his sides---Harper has his arm wrapped around his waist while Sonny was sleeping soundly on his other side.

Jack blinked his tired eyes, checking where the last of them was. He initially panicked when he did not see Brooklyn anywhere, thinking the other ran away again.

He was ready to rattle the other two that was sleeping awake, but then, he heard gagging sounds coming from the bathroom.

He carefully removed himself from Harper's hold, going slowly as he knew the other sleep lightly. He scooted over Sonny's body, standing up as he went over the bathroom to soothe Brooklyn's hangover.

Once he opened the door, his sight was welcomed by Brooklyn's head leaning over the toilet bowl as he gagged his hearts out.

The other man was naked as well, but he couldn't care less, squatting close to the other as he rubbed soothing circles on his back.

Brooklyn groaned after a series of dry heaving, "Fuck, I hate this part."

Jack chuckled, ruffling the blonde's already messy hair, "Then, don't get wasted, idiot."

"No promises, sir." Brooklyn spoke before vomiting finally at the toilet. Jack patted Brooklyn's head, throwing a clean towel to the other after he was done retching. He told him to start showering and went to unlocked the bathroom door.

Once he went outside to get some clothes, he was welcomed by the sight of Harper playing with Sonny's curls, the pair making out deeply.

Jack watched in adoration, grinning as he shook his head, "Hey, don't leave me out, assholes."

He heard Harper reply, "Then, don't just fucking  stand there, doofus."

Jack's teeth flashed brighter, hopping over the bed as he placed a sneaky peck over Sonny's lips and another with Harper's.

Unlike Sonny who blushed over their quick kiss, Harper bit harder on his lips, asking for a deeper makeout session. Jack smirked, fulfilling the other's request, opening his mouth to let Harper explore his hot cavern.

"I got my ass wrecked last night, by you all exactly, and this what I get." Brooklyn hissed, crossing his arms as he pouted. "Why are you hoes doing juicy stuff without me?"

"I'm actually surprised that you were able to walk." Harper chuckled, teasing the other blonde. "I salute."

"I don't want to vomit all over Curlies' lovely face. That was my key motivation."

Jack saw Sonny blush red, Brooklyn limping as he went over their bed. He gave all of them a chaste kiss, going to Sonny last as he rubbed their noses together.

Afterwards, Sonny glanced at him and Harper, asking, "So, what's the plan?"

"Me and Harp already took care of everything we will need so we could all sail in two days. We'll ride a cruise ship in Southampton to New York City."

"But how about the law? The police might find you all and catch every one of you." Brooklyn asked, biting down his bottom lip worriedly.

Jack remembered Brooklyn was the only person in their group who did not do any heinous crime against the law.

"Don't worry. We can handle this, we managed for two weeks now." Harper spoke, holding into Brooklyn's hand. "A few more wouldn't hurt."

Jack could see Brooklyn was not totally convinced of the answer, fiddling with the hem of his shower towel in thought.

He heard Brooklyn sigh, "I can't believe it was only a week ago since I met you guys."

He heard Harper chuckle while he grinned, Sonny smiling a little. Brooklyn confessed, "It was brief, but honestly, the best moments of my life."

Jack saw Harper flicked the other blonde's ear, Brooklyn instantly whining. "Why are you being sappy as shit today?"

"Not gonna lie, I think it's probably the hangover."

Jack laughed at his reply, messing the blonde's wet hair, saying, "Anyway, this is just the start, Brooky. Prepare for more best days of your life."

Brooklyn gradually smiled, nodding his head as he huddled them closer to his chest, "Thank you, guys."

They ordered some breakfast in bed, deciding to chill to their hotel room for the rest of the day. They cuddled in bed, bingewatching shitty films on Netflix that only Sonny find mildly interesting.

A half hour later on their first film, Harper was already asleep, dozing on Jack's shoulder as he tucked the other closer to his chest.

Sonny's eyes were focused on the screen, Brooklyn chatting him up about it. The curly raven's arms were wrapped around Brooklyn's shoulder, the blonde boy half laying on Sonny's body. They were cuddling under a shared blanket, lost on their own world.

"Is there something that matter?" Sonny asked, his worried gaze focusing on Jack as Brooklyn glanced at him too.

Jack shook his head, shaking his hand in the air, "Nothing, just... you guys are adorable."

Sonny's cheeks flushed while  Brooklyn smirked, "You and Harp are fucking adorable too. Pun intended."

Jack chuckled, appreciating the blonde man's vulgarity.

"So, what are we all really?" Sonny asked, the gazes now darting on him.

Brooklyn's brows furrowed, "What do you mean?"

"This thing," Sonny begun waving his finger to all four of them. "This relationship we all have."

"Do we even have to name it?" Brooklyn shrugged. "I mean, we are what we are. End of story."

Jack nodded his head in agreement, liking how that sounded. He saw Sonny gradually agreed  looking down at his hand, "Alright, we are what we are."

"I second that." Harper said, making Jack gazed down to the boy cuddling him. Jack grinned, pulling the other into a kiss.

They are what they are. And, nothing can take that away from them.

Not their horrid crimes. Not their fucked up pasts. Not even, their inner demons.

No one and nothing can take it or break it---nobody but them.

And honestly, as the four of them all looked at one another, all tangled up, no clothes, and all huddled closely together in one messy bed sheet---their love and dedication for one another would beat any trials and uncertainties the future holds.

'We are what we are and we could do this,' Jack thought as he held the other three on his arms, pulling them closer. 'To paradise'.
