\\“have I known you twenty seconds, or twenty years?”//

"Where are we going, Phil?"

"You'll see." The older boy smiled cheekily, staring ahead at the road.

Dan rolled his eyes. He had never been to fond of surprises, but at this point he was too tired to argue with Phil. He looked out the window; trees and small vintage houses passing him by. Rolling down his window, he let the cool air brush against his pretty face. The colour of his cheeks turning from pale to rosy pink.

"Tell me about your dreams." Phil spoke out of the blue.

"What?" Dan raised his eyebrows.

"I want to know what you dream about. What to aspire to be, what you want from your future." Phil shrugged.

"Honestly speaking Phil, I've never really thought about it. For the longest time in my life, until I met you, I thought I had no future. I thought I would eventually kill myself, so what was the point of having dreams if they're never going to come true, anyways?"

Phil stiffened up at his response. He hated thinking that Dan ever thought he wasn't going to live long enough to make anything out of his one shot at existence.

Dan noticed Phil's reaction. Cautiously, he reached out and let his palm rest on Phil's knee. "But I do have some dreams now. I want to have a family. A husband, children. Maybe even a dog. I know it sounds lame. Pathetic, even. But as tedious as it sounds; I just really wish to have a family of my own."

"That's not lame at all, Dan! That's a beautiful aspiration to have. Most people would say a job, or money. Which isn't so bad, but your dream is so much more sweet." Phil exclaimed.

"Another thing I want for my future is for you to be a part of it, Phil." Dan spoke softly, "and hopefully as my lover."

Phil blushed immediately at Dan's confession.

"Me too, Dan." He smiled at the younger boy, "also, you can take a nap if you want. Get some rest, love. This is going to be a long drive."

Dan sighed, "okay. I love you, g'night." He shifted closer to the side door, and leaned his head against the window.

"Sleep well, baby."
