"Here." Levi offered, passing Grayson the joint he had just taken two very long drags from. The two boys were lying in the big bed next to each other, in just their pants, eating the Chinese food that they had ordered to the Airbnb, drinking the very expensive whisky that Grayson had stole from his dad, and getting, very, very high.

Grayson took it and placed it between his lips as he picked up a duck spring roll and feeding it to Levi who grinned as he took a bite. The blue eyed boy smiled back and took a puff, before blowing the smoke out and putting the rest of the spring roll into his own mouth. Grayson lent back against the head board, taking a couple of drag from the spliff as Levi finished off the crispy chilli beef he ordered, leaning against Grayson's shoulder. They sat in comfortable silence for a few minutes before Grayson leaned over and pinched some food from Levi's plate, who battered his hand away.

"Stop it, I'm hungry!" Levi whined, moving his plate out of Grayson's reach. The older boy laughed before throwing beef into his mouth.

"Did I make you work up an appetite Lee?" Grayson grinned after he finished chewing. He flicked the joint into the ashtray, but watched Levi closely as he did so, taking immense pleasure in how he began to blush lightly.

"No. But I think I might have made you work one up like... 3 times now?" He replied cheekily, with a smirk the caught Grayson slightly off guard. Grayson passed the spliff back to Levi, who took a puff and put his plate on the bedside table

"Oh, you want to go there? If we're gonna start keeping a tally let me know. We'll get a prize on our wedding night for whoever wins." Grayson challenged, before taking a sip of the whisky. The sentence caught Levi completely off-guard, and he almost choked on the smoke.

"You've thought about us getting married?" He asked, once again very confused. Grayson clearly wasn't himself but Levi didn't want to ask in case it set him off. Maybe he was just getting drunk quicker than Levi was.

"An embarrassing amount. Have you not?"

"I..."

"At first I wanted a small wedding. Just you, and me. We do the whole Gretna Green thing and then I would take you to my parents' apartment in Stockholm that overlooks the city for our honeymoon. It could all be very romantic." Grayson admitted. He then turned to Levi smiling as he finished the whisky left over in his mug.

"But then I changed my mind. I think that we should have a huge wedding, invited everyone we know and throw a huge party in a big old manor house. And instead of serving some posh dinner that neither of us like, we'll order from this Chinese, because I think this is the best Chinese I've ever fucking had."

Levi couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by Grayson's declaration. None had looked so excited at the prospect of doing something with him. But it couldn't be true. Grayson was just getting too high and waffling.

"And then we'll leave the guests with the huge takeaway bill and run away to the Maldives and live in one of those little huts in the middle of the water. We'll live there forever but one day, the man who owns the Chinese takeaway will find us and chase us all around the world to try and make us pay the food. It'd be a cool adventure would it?!" Grayson grinned excitedly. He laughed and shook his head as he took another spring roll.

"Nah, actually, what we'll do, you can pretend to be my manager, and we can go to football clubs all across America trying to get them to sign me, and once I'm about to sign the contract, we'll turn up to the photoshoot naked and rip up the contract, before running away and getting in our caravan and driving to the next state." Levi's blue eyed boy rambled. What the fuck was he going on about?

"How fucking funny would that be Lee?"

Not knowing what to do, Levi just hummed in response before taking a big gulp of the whisky in his cup, and the joint out of Grayson's hand. "You're so fucking high."

Despite everything that happened in the last week Levi couldn't help but feel at peace. He was sat up in the bed, leaning against the headboard, Grayson laying against his chest. Levi wrapped his arms around Grayson's shoulders and lay them on the latter's chest lazily. Grayson lightly stroked Levi's arm with his thumb, sending muted sparks along the skin that he caressed.

"One day I'm gonna make enough money so that we can have an apartment like this." Levi whispered dreamily, causing Grayson to hum in response.

"Somewhere that we won't get interrupted by nosy flatmates, or parents. Where I can sit and listen to you play the piano all day. Or watch you draw. Or play football. Or just sit there and breath. Fuck me, you're talented." He sighed, smiling.

Grayson chuckled softly before planting a kiss on Levi hand. "I could sit and watch you play on your PS for hours. You're very good at that."

Levi snorted. "Thanks, I'm glad I've impressed you."

"You always impress me." Grayson whispered. He closed his eyes before taking a deep breath and sighing, his mind troubled.

"I wish we could stay here forever. Just me and you. We could get a dog." Mumbled Levi, as he looked out the window.

"The only way we could stay like this, is to die like this Levi." His boyfriend said, shocking Levi. He felt his heart stop for a second, as saddness and slight anger overcame him. A scowl etched his way onto Levi's face.

"Don't say shit like that. Seriously Grayson." Levi ordered, moving Grayson to face him. After a few seconds, Levi raised his eyebrows, indicating that he was waiting for a response.

"I was just joking." Grayson said, sending the younger boy a small smile. The scowl did not leave Levi's face. He didn't believe him for a second.

"I was joking. Honestly."

Grayson leaned up and planted a kiss on Levi's chin before kissing him properly, warming Levi's heart once more. Levi nodded slightly in response, causing Grayson to to settle back leaning against Levi's chest.

They continued to lay in silence for a couple minutes before Grayson broke the silence once more. "How many Levi and Graysons are lying like this?"

"Hundreds. Thousands. Millions." Levi sighed, his mind still on what Grayson had said.

"Good. I hope they're all as happy as we are." Grayson whispered.

"I think they are. If they're spending tonight like we are, I think they will be." Levi assured.

"Good."

"Do you think in one parallel universe that we're already married?" Asked Grayson. He then turned in Levi's grip, hugging his waist as he lay his head back on his chest.

"Well, yeah. Are you okay?"

"Of course I am. I'm here. With you." Grayson whispered before kissing Levi's chest.

"Where do you want to go first then? Paris? Rome? Berlin?" Levi asked as he ran his fingers through Grayson's hair softly.

"Last year my parents took me to Geneva. It was so beautiful, I think you'll love it."

"Really? I've never thought about going to Switzerland."

"But I'll go anywhere with you Levi."

"Anywhere? Even somewhere awful like... Dudley?"

Grayson chuckled and nodded his head against Levi's chest. "Yes. Even Dudley. Anywhere. I promise."
