"Hmm?"
"What if we never get married?"
Toby looked at Luke. The two of them had been laying in the grass around Renee's place watching the sky. It was an odd and random question of the blue haired boy to ask. Well, he couldn't exactly call him a boy. Toby was 20, and Luke was 21. They were men now, right? Nonetheless, it was a weird question.
"Why do you ask?"
"Well, we need a backup plan, bro."
"I don't get it." Toby was rather unsure of what his fellow 'bro' was trying to say. Luke sat up and leaned against Alan's tree.
"Like, what if we never got married to anyone? I don't wanna be all alone, and I'm gonna guess you don't want to either." He looked at Toby for confirmation, which was received with a nod. "So, we need a backup plan."
"What do you suggest, Luke?"
"If we don't get married in 10 years to anyone..." The two looked at each other. Luke grinned, thinking his plan was brilliant. "-then we get married to each other!"
Toby chuckled and looked back at the sky. He thought about it for a moment. It would be just like having a permanent "bro-over", really. They already spent so much time together as it was, so it wouldn't really change. Both of them worked. They had no problem living with each other. For once, one of Luke's ideas didn't seem so bad.
"Alright. If we aren't married in 10 years, we'll marry each other." Toby sat up and faced Luke, who held out his gloved hand. Toby took it with his own and they shook hands, sealing the deal.
"It's a bro-promise!"
"Sure is, bro." Toby laughed lightly and laid back down, watching the skies again. Luke followed suit and the two spent the rest of the day looking at the sky. Or, at least, until Renee and Kathy chased after them on horses.
