The autumn sun’s warmth still retained bits and pieces of summer, one that, to the teenager, had gone by much too quickly. They had wanted to do so many things over those two months, but time slipped through their fingers without their notice. With the school year beginning soon, the pair of boys had decided to make one final trek out to the city.
The taller of the two paused mid step to look back at his friend, a grin on his lips.
“C’mon Alisx, at this pace we’re going to get there next summer!”
Alisx wrinkled his nose and stuck out his tongue childishly at the other boy as he got out his phone from his back pocket. “Hey if you want to carry me so we get there faster, be my guest, prince Cas. But first give me a second to text Jinx, i’m low on bars so I think the signal is going to drop soon.”
Cas laughed in response, sliding his arm around Alisx and pulling him in close to press a kiss to his dark black hair. “Alright, let’s take a cute selfie though.”
Color dusted Alisx’s face, but he obliged his partner’s silly whims and took a photo cheek to cheek with him. After sending it to their friend along with their location and promises to not forget to bring back fresh strawberries, he slipped his phone back into his pocket and leaned into Cas.
“She really would kill us if we forgot that fruit for her.”
Cas smirked, tousling the smaller boy’s hair with elegant fingers. “Well if you’d pick up the pace we’d be able to actually get her treat. Look, you’re going so slow that car is slowing down to make sure you’re not a zombie or anything.”
Alisx hadn’t noticed the car trailing behind them until Cas pointed it out, but when he turned his head a deep blue and rather beat up car had drawn up beside the pair.
He could feel Cas tense, his hand grasping Alisx’s and gingerly pulled him to stand slightly behind him. He wanted to scold his partner for being so overprotective but at the same time it made him feel secure when Cas looked out for him so much.
