The next morning was a mess of packing due to the fact that neither Gavin nor Kendall had listened to their mother's advice to pack the night before. Kendall was throwing his T-shirts into his suit case as Gavin folded his own clothes. His closest, as well as Kendall's, was pretty much split half-and-half filled with clothes both he and Kendall shared almost every day. The fact that no one had assumed they had been dating, how he had ended up with Lisa was a miracle. He admittedly didn't miss her, she was a stuck up, unappreciative bitch that masked herself with the sweet girl façade.

Gavin plopped down on Kendall's bed. Kendall's room was a strange array of the trinkets of adolescence. His One Direction poster that overlapped with his art projects of the past few years, the pictures of Gavin and him, and the family photos. The coolest thing in Kendall's room was the life size Diablo III cutout of Kendall's favorite, the Rogue and the aluminum replica of GLaDOS from Portal.

Gavin stretched his arms over his head and arched his back in attempt to loosen the tension in his back. He smiled as he watched Kendall try to force all of his shoes into one bag. With one swift huff he had pushed the last shoe in and quickly snapped the bag shut.

Gavin shot up and stared at Kendall and started packing his own socks, most of which were Kendall's, "Can you believe we're leaving home?" He had the biggest grin humanly possible spreading across his pale face.

Kendall turned to Gavin, his face blank. In the flurry of emotions and packing he'd forgotten how exciting this would be for Gavin. This was the only place Gavin knew, aside from his homes in England. Gavin had experienced the shift from being out casted in Burnley to being lovingly accepted in Minnesota. Most people took kindly to him due to his striking looks and rolling accent, which he had admittedly finally started to loose.

Before he could even wrap up his thought process Gavin was jumping on his bed in excitement.

Kendall shook his head and continued packing their things.

Unfortunately, Kendall had yielded the task of driving to Gavin, which he now regretted as Gavin chanted every word he said at least six times. After driving for about two hours Kendall had tried to rest his head on the window of the passenger door, he was seconds from drifting to sleep when suddenly he heard a light whisper.

"L-a-s A-n-g-e-l-e-s" Gavin chimed, "Las Angeles, Las Angeles LOS ANGELES! !"

"OH MY FUCKING GOD, GAVIN! I AM GOING TO KILL YOU!" Kendall screeched.

Gavin seemed to have buffed up at this, "Dude, might your tits be calmed."

Kendall shook in anger, for some reason as soon as the car was revved he started feeling like a lump of shit leftover from farming season. All dry and flaky and- No.

"Gavin, just let me nap," Kendall pleaded.

Gavin smiled, "Ten minutes."

Kendall nodded, sighed and went back to drifting off. As his eyes finally slid closed and his mind started to reel, the gears in his head compiled atop each other, threading the thoughts that would plague his dreams.

As Kendall drifted into a twinkle of a coma and Gavin focused on driving to their destination. He'd been driving for two hours and was barely away from home. He felt as if the road to LA would take the life out of in. In six hours he was to wake Kendall up and switch off in South Dakota. The idea of driving this far out was boggling his mind and he honestly couldn't get away from home fast enough. Kendall's outing wasn't Gavin's only motive for skipping town, but he couldn't handle the strain to impress his mother. Mrs. Duval had always liked Kendall better, she got him the better gifts, told him the sweeter words. His mother only reprimanded him. He'd spent most of his life leaning on Kendall's shoulder or hunching over and supporting himself.

During his six hours of driving he'd mustered multiple ways to entertain himself. First he tried counting to 1000 in all evens, the going down in odds, then back up on every other even, then back down on every other, other odd. By the time he was half way down every other, other odd he'd almost collided with three poles and a dog.

After three hours he realized he was supposed to wake Kendall up after ten minutes of sleeping, but he was too scared to mention it. He didn't want Kendall to get angry. He took a deep breath as he pulled into the driveway of RaceTrac he slowly slipped from the car and made his way into the gas station. He picked up as many snacks as he could, including Kendall's favorite, "The Bag" a back filled with corn chips, chili. Onions and a corndog dipped for garnish. He paid for his pump and made his way back out to the lot, just to be confronted with the sight of their pump lacking Kendall's car. Gavin hoped Kendall had woken up. He walked up and down the lot until he ran into the pocket out back. When he waltzed past the dumpsters he saw Kendall's car with all of its doors open.

"Hurry up, man! I don't wanna get booked with grand theft." One of the guys in the cars whispered harshly.

"I'm trying but his belt is all loopy and shit." The second guy said heavily.

Gavin panicked and formulated a half assed plan after calling the police. He slipped behind the car and rested his food on the hood after picking up a plank from the dumpster, he walked up to the first guy and wacked as hard as he could in the nook of his cranium.

The second guy came running toward him, fully aware of the assault. Gavin rested the plank n his palm and launched it in the other guys face by knocking the butt of the plank with his palm, crushing the man's nose, before the man could land on his back, Gavin wacked him in the face one more time for good measure.

He ran up to the passenger seat and pulled Kendall close to him. His belt buckle had been loosened and shirt ridden up. He slapped Kendall's face hoping he could come to.

"Kendall?" He whispered.

"Gavin?" Kendall replied shakily, his eyes cracking open.

Before Gavin could reply, the sirens of the squad cars had invaded the air. They were questioned, Kendall was checked out by a medic and they were sent on their marry way.

Kendall was adamant about telling their parents, while Gavin didn't want to be bothered with the whining. The two slipped back into the car and went back on their way. But before they could get a minute into their drive Kendall asked Gavin a question that been hankering him.

"Are you an idiot?" Kendall said harshly.

Gavin's hands tightened on the wheel.

"Huh? I could have been raped and killed all because you couldn't lock the fucking doors!"

"I'm sorry." Gavin said pathetically.

"Sorry? Are you fucking serious?" Kendall fumed, "I'm calling my mom."

Kendall whipped out his phone and called his mother, he filled her in with the details getting angrier and angrier as he explained more and more. Before the conversation ended, Gavin's phone had already received a call from his mother.

"Yes, mum?" He said softly. He was officially drained.

"How could you let this happen? I thought I raised you better!" She spewed.

Gavin ignored the things going on around him including the call. He'd spent so much time not responding he'd ended up with his phone near his ear, with a ringing silence on the other line.

Gavin was silent the rest of the trip through South Dakota, when he and Kendall switched out to have Kendall drive for the next few hours. Kendall had calmed down and tried his hardest to spark conversations with Gavin but was pushed back with Gavin's cold demeanor.

"So, where should we eat?" Kendall asked as his six hour almost ended, and they were set to stopping for supper.

Gavin shrugged.

Kendall went back to focusing on the road. When he looked next to him half an hour later, Gavin was knocked out.

Kendall suddenly regretted telling his mother. He knew how Gavin's relationship was with his mother and hadn't even been considerate enough to care about his best friend. He spent the next few hours beating himself up over his poor decision, which had proven to be a great time killer. When he finally pulled up to Wakpamni Bed and Breakfast, he pulled out two bags and opened Gain's door for him. Gavin slipped out and followed Kendall into the resort. As Kendall checked in, he text'd someone in secret hoping Kendall wouldn't notice.

The two made their way to their room. In an attempt to save money they had book one room with a queen sized bed. Gavin plopped onto the bed as Kendall picked out their pajamas from the two bags. He tossed Gavin's to him and made his way to the shower, Gavin following suit. The two took a quick shower together and snuggled into each other on the bed.

Before Gavin could fall asleep he heard Kendall whisper,

"I'm sorry,"
