Outlaws //ON PAUSE//

First Kiss

It had been a few days since Travis had first decided to move in with Sal. Henry was mostly fine with it, but kind of confused on why he wasn't living at his own house.

It was late at night and neither Sal nor Travis were able to sleep, so they decided to sneak outside. They were sitting at the grass, just talking. 

Wow, this is so romantic. Travis thought. If only he liked me like I like him.

Sal was thinking about what Travis had said about a week earlier. That he liked him. He regretted not telling him then and there that he felt the same. Maybe now was a better time? 

"Travis?" He said.

"Yeah?" Travis replied.

"Remember about a week ago when you told me that you liked me?"

Travis blushed and said "Yeah."

"Well... I think I like you too."

"Really?" Travis was not expecting that, whatsoever. 

"Yeah." 

They were quiet for a little bit, just taking in the moment.

"I... I kind of want to kiss you right now." Sal said, quietly. 

"So kiss me." Travis said, starting to feel a little cocky.

Sal was slow to take off his prosthetic, as he was worried that Travis would see his face. Travis assured him that the moon wasn't bright enough for him to see his face, and even if he did, he wouldn't judge him or anything. 

Sal leaned in to kiss Travis, butterflies engulfing his stomach.

You and Larry were in his treehouse, doing weed. You looked up at the stars, as you often do when you are high. It's just so beautiful, and kind of trippy. Larry rested his head on your shoulder. Suddenly, you heard the soft murmur of conversation from below the treehouse. You looked down, and were surprised to see Travis and Sal.

"There's Travis and Sal. Should we invite them to come sit with us?" You asked Larry.

"Sure." He said, even though he hadn't fully comprehended what you had said.

"Isn't it weird how we can see them, but they can't see us?" You said. "Like, they probably don't have a single clue that we're up here. I wonder how many people have seen us or watched us, but we didn't have a clue they were watching. Isn't that crazy?" You said.

Larry was quiet for a second and then said, "Yeah, that's pretty insane." 

You were initially planning on going to see if they wanted to come sit with you and Larry, but your body kind of said "Fuck mobility" so you stayed there. That changed, however, when you saw them lean in to kiss eachother. You sat straight up, causing Larry to fall and hit his head on the ground.

"Can I not go a single day without hitting my head on something?" He grumbled.

"Dude, Sal and Travis are kissing." You said, smiling in disbelief. 

"What?" Larry said, looking at the window. He saw what you were talking about and laughed to himself quietly.

"I mean, I don't know what I expected to see but it wasn't this." You said.

"Should I yell for them to get a room?" Larry asked with a mischievous smile.

"No, let them have their moment."

You and Larry assumed your previous positions and laughed together a little bit. 

"We probably won't remember any of this tomorrow." He said.

"You meant that you won't remember any of this tomorrow. I have exceptionally good memory of things that happen when I'm high." You replied.

"Yeah, sure." Larry said before falling asleep on you.

"Prick." You whispered with a soft smile before falling asleep as well.
