with the last grocery bag packed away in the trunk of the car, deryn snapped it shut. a long sigh came from his lips and he turned, resting back against the rear bumper of the rented vehicle. the only thing that hadn’t been packed away was a pack of drinks that he cracked into, bottle opened quickly so he could take a long sip from it. “ you got anything you’re meant to be doing now ?” he asked, gesturing with his drink to the pack as an offer to his friend that he had made come along. “ i don’t think the rest of the team is going to be expecting me back for a while yet. hoping that you’ll be keeping me some company. i could get into some trouble by myself.. ” a loose smile came to his face, only really half joking about that.
