Gordon was now driving Barney's car, usually Gordon takes the tram to go home but today, his teammate having drunk too much, he had to drive him to his apartment and especially not let him get behind the wheel in this state !

Barney was in the back, a little dazed and half-lying in his seat. He was looking out the window. The tired eyes and the slightly squinting gaze wandered over the buildings outside. Gordon could admire his goofy face for hours, but he had to concentrate on the road. He didn't hesitate to take a few glances from the rearview mirror though !

It was a usual day except Black Mesa had pumped all their energy today but seeing as tomorrow is the weekend the security guard thought it was a good idea to have a drink! Or even several drinks. Fortunately, Gordon is there, despite the difficulty he had in getting his friend into the car.

They were going rather far, the driver did not know where his passenger lived. They live very far apart and this is the first time Gordon will be able to visit Calhoun's home! But his friend, who was too much in the galaxy, couldn't show the way, so Gordon relied on the GPS which had the necessary information without having to think too much.

Finally, they had arrived in front of large gray buildings huddled together. Apparently it was here.

Gordon left the car in a small parking space near the curb and got out of the vehicle. He opened the back door, unfastened his friend's belt and took him by the hips, Barney opened his arms to pass them behind Gordon's neck and Gordon lifted him up in his arms to carry him.

"I-I am not a baby, Gordon!" He exclaimed, his accent mingling with his alcohol-derailed cowboy laugh. Yet he didn't seem to be bothered to be carried like this! Either way, whatever he might say, for Gordon, Barney will always be his big baby.

«The baby» had his head resting on his friend's shoulder, letting himself be rocked by the movements, rosy cheeks, relaxed smile and a little tired.

Despite what Gordon was carrying in his arms, he managed to close the door with his pelvis and lock the vehicle. He walked now to the entrance of the building.

He discovered that the task would be more difficult. In Gordon's apartment there is an elevator but here, only spiral stairs! Gordon was tired .. but he couldn't give up now! He regained his confidence and without thinking, he kissed Barney's neck. Maybe a gesture to reassure and encourage each other? But this gesture made Barney now have his head buried in Gordon shoulders and chuckled like a kid.

Gordon gave a few quiet laughs when he heard his friend's. Feeling in better shape, he took the first step and quietly followed the next ones. Every time he came to a door, he glanced at the names written on it, looking for Calhoun's name.

3rd floor ! Bingo ! In front of him was a door with a sign in the shape of a frog wishing "Welcome" he couldn't miss this detail. Fortunately, the keys to his door were attached to those of his car in his hands so he managed to open it without too much difficulty if you don't count what he has in his arms!

He closed the door behind him with his back and instinctively walked into the bedroom, he could feel his tiredness mingling with the fatigue of his mate.

He thought he could put his friend in his bed and see if he had coffee in his kitchen but instead, on the move, Barney took him to the middle of the bed with him. The two were lying on top of each other, Barney chuckling while having his arms crossed over the neck of his partner who was on top of him and laughing silently in surprise.

Then they stopped and looked at each other. Barney's soft resting eyes called out to him and his half-open lips envied him. Gordon looked at every detail in his face that was slowly bringing him closer like a magnet, that look he was giving him, a warm face that was waiting for something.

A long silence until the moment when the two men at the same time, pressed their mouths against each other, eyes closed. An exciting kiss accompanied by small, hectic breaths.

In action, Barney took of Gordon's ponytails and held his hair to press his lips to him and Gordon held his face to do the same. The two were focused on their goal, so intense that they began to kiss with their mouths open. Unfortunately, something stopped Gordon in his movements and Barney let go, realizing that something was going on.

The two men straightened their backs while staying on top of each other. Barney was supported himself by his elbows and Gordon by one arm on the mattress while the other hand touched his own mouth.

"Did I do something wrong?" Asked his friend below him in fear.

Gordon looked back at him in surprise and motioned that it wasn't it with both hands, supporting himself with his legs.

[ You taste like alcohol ] Gordon admits, signing. Not being a heavy drinker and even though it tasted quite unpleasant, being other things stronger than beer, he was still smiling. Trying to comfort his partner.

Barney relaxed and let his head crash onto his bed, reassured that it wasn't anything too bad.. both were now smiling and Gordon lay down next to him and turned to look at him. Their two heads resting on the pillows.

Barney did the same and looked at the beautiful green eyes accompanied by large dark circles on his friend's face. The reflections of the setting sun reflected so much tenderness in his eyes. He loved him so much .. Suddenly, his companion's gentle gaze turned to worry and his hands rested on the guard's cheeks.

He understood that the change of emotion was due to the tears streaming down his face. He was crying but still kept smiling. The fact that he is drunk makes him very sensitive and vulnerable.

"Don't worry honey, I'm fine..." he said putting his hand on his partner hand who was still on his cheeks.

"It's just .. it's just here now, I realize how important you are and how lucky I am to have you with me .. I don't want to let you go ..i'm so afraid of.. losing you .. i don't want to see you go .. not alone, not without me ... promise me, if one day our paths part .. if.
.one day I lose you. . .. I beg you Gordon .. promise to come back .. don't leave me, don't let me go, don't-

...

Barney didn't finish his sentence in front of Gordon's lips which were against his. He immersed himself in this contact, tears continuing to slide but quickly swept away by the caresses of his companion's hands.

This time, that kiss was quiet and not hectic, intense but calm, reassuring and heartwarming. Gordon pulled back, again, as Barney followed the movement of his lips going away and looked at him sadly.

His companion looked at him seriously, concerned but intentional and honest. He formed silent words with his mouth forming the sentence:
* I Love You *

Barney collapsed and more tears immediately came.

"I love you too, honey !!" He gave a small smile and he buried his head on his boyfriend's chest and wrapped his arms around him. Gordon hugged him too and held him tightly against him, putting a hand in his hair and kissing him on it. The two, breathing in each other's scent.

Being tired and unable to last long, they let sleep take them away but still stuck together.
