Y/N. Who was he as a person? He was a boy. He loved coffee shops. However, as of late, he wasn't quite sure who he was. He knew he loved Steven, and that didn't change. But Y/N felt,,, different. He couldn't describe how or why, just a small trapped feeling. He felt like he was drowning in nothing and everything at the same time, his thoughts, his senses, clouded by a muffling fog, confusing everything in him.
He wanted to turn away from this feeling. Y/N wanted to be in Steven's arms right now, being lightly squeezed to keep him grounded in his current setting. But he needed to think. Think? Think about what? He,, he couldn't think. He didn't know what to think about. Y/N sat up from his spot under a tree, where he was just previously curled up into a ball. He made his way back to the boardwalk, and stopped by an arcade. Y/N was ready to play, but then realized he had no coins on him, making him sadder.
"Y/N?" A familiar voice said.
Y/N's eyes turned to the voice's soft brown eyes. Steven's eyes.
"Steven,,, I'm not ready to ta-"
"Y/N,,, please. I can't do this, we just need to have a conversation on this. Please," tears were welling up in Steven's eyes.
Y/N ran into Steven's arms, sobbing. He just needed to be held. He felt stupid for ever questioning Steven, but he had a tendency to overthink.
"Okay,,, let's talk," Y/N had said after a few minutes of hugging. "Let's just,,, talk about us. And who we are, what we are. Let's have a conversation."

It was, at this point, very late at night, or very early in the morning, depending on how you look at it. The boys had had a long talk, and soon fell asleep together in the back seat, in each other's arms. The conversation lasted for hours. Stories about Connie, talking about ways to move on, reassuring eachother, confirming they were still together, etc.
At this point, Steven's family was worried on where he was. Sure, he was living away from them now, but he was there to visit!! It wasn't wrong for them to worry. Pearl and Greg had decided to go look together, not having an idea of where they could be. They wouldn't know that the boys were parked miles away from beach city, making their search longer.
