End Journeys
don't worry about me
Their second day at the camp did not go well. Heavy rain accompanied by strong winds ravage the branches of trees around.
Ruby, Felix, and Thomas are in one tent. They ventured out as they continued to think about what they would do next, while Anton himself had not returned from the motel since yesterday.
"Have Anton contacted you?" ask Felix.
"Yet. He hasn't contacted Reno either" Thomas replied.
"We should wear three tents" Felix said.
"Why indeed?" ask Ruby.
"For me to be alone with you" Felix replied.
"Ah I know what you're thinking" said Thomas.
"Please I won't see" he added.
"Later you ask to come along" teased Ruby.
In the rain, Thomas gets an incoming call from Anton.
"Hello, why did you just report?" ask Thomas to Anton.
"I found something here" Anton replied in a whisper.
"What's that?" ask Thomas curiously.
"I won't be back soon so you don't wait for me. I'm fine, if I'm in danger I'll let you guys know" Anton hung up.
"There's nothing we can do now" Thomas said.
"Why didn't Anton come back?" ask Ruby.
"What he found there. Anton did not explain in detail what he found" Thomas replied.
While waiting for the rain to subside, Thomas and Felix play a game together while Ruby falls asleep.
"You've already lost" Thomas told Felix.
"Good, okay. I lost," Felix admitted defeat.
"I'm going to sleep, please" he added.
"You're craving, yeah" Thomas teases Felix who's sleeping on his back. He hugged Ruby and closed his eyes.
"Do I still love him?" Thomas wondered to himself, whether Felix heard it or not.
Thomas closed his eyes and fell asleep.
****
"Wake up!!!" exclaim Reno.
Ruby, Felix, and Thomas instantly woke up after listening to that loud cry.
"It's almost afternoon" Reno added.
"What's it like to jostle in a tent?" Thomas muttered still while closing his eyes.
"There's one more tent but it's not installed yet. I'll install it now" Reno said as he left Thomas' tent.
"We'll take Anton, come on" Ruby asked.
"Alright but secretly," Thomas agreed.
"Yes I've been with you" Felix was forced to agree because he did not want his lover to be alone with Thomas.
"Night we'll quietly leave but let Reno and Anton know first. Anton is afraid to plan something but our arrival foils his plan" suggested Ruby.
Thomas exits the tent and helps Reno build a tent.
"I want to talk" Thomas said in the midst of their efforts to build a tent that was a little difficult because the land there became slippery after the rain.
"Me, Ruby and Felix are going to the motel tonight. You stand guard here" whispered Thomas.
Without asking what they were going to do at the motel, Reno immediately agreed to what Thomas said.
"Why don't you ask?" Thomas's astonished.
"This is my chance to be alone with Cassie" Reno replied shyly.
"God. It's up to you" replied Thomas.
"Haha not only that. I suspect something from Kylie," whispered Reno.
"Examine it" Thomas asked for help.
"Of course," Reno agreed on their cooperation.
