Tiny amounts of drama in here, but its kind of fun drama. Its funma! In case anyone's wondering...I honestly have no idea where this is going. I've never been much of a planner when it comes to writing. That and every time I decide to write something, the characters make it go somewhere else. Like a little while ago when Chris was working too much, I had originally planned on an actual fight with yelling and everything!
I'd also like to dedicate this chapter to my friend Cherese. She has yet to read it, but when I first started writing it she was the one that I sent it to, and she read it over and encouraged me to keep writing it. So thank you Cherry Blaster! This one's for you!
Anyways, here's the next chapter!
By Tuesday they were back home, and Mark was on his way back to his own family. Darren had been right, Hannah ignored him and Chris for the rest of the weekend in favour of Mark, who loved every minute of it and promised to come back. They even exchanged skype usernames and Mark promised to introduce her to Cory and the other guys.
They were ready to get back to their hectic scheduals, when something unexpected stopped them both in their tracks.
The person living above their apartment had "accidently" left the water running after the landlord had evicted them. Neither Chris nor Darren were at home, meaning the water had time to damage a fair amount of their stuff. Especially considering it broke through the ceiling in the kitchen.
It wasn't too big of a deal, the landlord was covering all the costs, and even replacing the appliances that were ruined. Chris and Darren were only on the hook for their personal items. And finding a place to live for the next few months while things were fixed.
For now, they were living in Chris' trailer. Darren had been offered his own trailer, but he'd refused it. He was fine sharing the space with Chris, and he knew how expensive they were. Why waste the money when he'd spend most of his time with Chris anyways?
"Darren, we can't live here anymore."
Darren looked up from his notebook and nodded. "I know we can't. I've been looking for apartments, and unless you want to live in my old building, which you really don't, we either have to sign a one year lease or rent a hotel or something."
Chris nodded. "I know, and I found a solution that really sucks, but is completely do-able."
"What is it?"
"Well, I was talking to Naya, and she's got an extra room, but her apartment is fairly small and she said she could probably only take one of us. And Cory said he could fit one of us in his guest room for a while until his brother comes back from Canada."
Darren nodded. "Which would mean living on either side of town."
Chris nodded. "And only seeing each other at work, seeing as we don't want the press all over us."
Darren sighed. "If its what we have to do, then we'll do it."
"And no sex."
Darren looked at him for a minute before nodding. "Naya said not at her place, and Cory said not at his. Understandable."
Chris shook his head. "No actually, Cory said it was fine as long as he could bring girls home and have sex in the kitchen, which is so not sanitary. And Naya said it was fine as long as she could watch."
Darren laughed. "We'll cross that bridge when we come to it. I mean, we can always lock the door and have our fun in here. And Kurt and Blaine have a few hot scenes this season, right?"
Chris nodded. "Yeah, about the hook ups in here. We can't do that anymore when Mark is sitting next door. He threatened to post audio on the internet."
Darren groaned. "Chris, why don't we just rent a hotel for a few months. We can afford it. Hell, I'll pay."
Chris smiled. "I know, I thought about it forever, but we should do it this way. This is going to sound all wrong, but do you ever feel like we jumped into this a little fast? I mean, I'm comfortable with the way everything is. I really am. But we never really dated, we just started sleeping together and then moved in together. There was no wooing, there was no chocolate, or flowers."
Darren took Chris' hands and nodded. "We did jump a little fast, lightning speed for most people. So if you want to give this a try then we'll do it." he smiled. "Its going to be torture, but we can do it. And I'm going to come see you every single morning, and call you every night to say goodnight, and fuck Chris, I'm gonna bring you so much flowers and candy you won't know what to do with them."
Darren opted to live with Cory, only because Naya kind of scared him a little. Chris laughed at that, suspecting that Darren was confusing Naya with Santana.
Chris had forgotten all about the sleep walking, seeing as it hadn't been a problem in so long, so he didn't warn Naya. She knew Chris sleep walked, but she hadn't really been expecting him to. And having just finished watching Paranormal Activity, she didn't take kindly to finding Chris staring at her while she slept at 2 in the morning.
The next day, Chris was busying himself trying to find another cast member to crash with. Poor Naya was up all night after that and she was grumpy without sufficient amounts of sleep. He finally convinced Ashley that he wouldn't scare her half to death so he was now sleeping in her guest room. Well, it was her cat's room, but that was fine. Chris could share.
It took exactly one week for the distance to annoy Chris. At first it was new and exciting, but that had worn off. Darren didn't have any scenes today, but Chris had asked him to come hang out, and he wasn't about to refuse.
They were laying on the couch, with as much skin touching as could be allowed while fully clothed.
Chris inhaled loudly. "I miss this."
"I miss YOU."
Chris smiled. "I miss you too. But this is good. I mean, we've never been so content with just laying together like this before."
"Hey, I gotta take what I can!"
Chris laughed. "Just think of how special it'll be if we haven't done anything in 2 months."
Darren smiled. "All you said was no sex. We can do other things..."
Chris shook his head. "Nope. Nothing. We can make out, nothing more."
"If you're withholding your cock, maybe I should withhold my lips!"
Chris laughed and moved closer to kiss Darren, who skillfully turned his head.
"No way Chris, you can't take away one of my favourite things in the world and then expect me to make out with you."
Chris laughed. "Favourite things in the world, huh?"
Darren nodded. "In the top 5."
Chris smiled. "Well now I think I need to hear the full list."
Darren sat up and started counting them on his finger. "5 is my guitar, 4 is my family and friends, 3 is Work, 2 is your cock, and 1 is you." he smiled.
Chris laughed. "Darren, you can't honestly be telling me that you love my penis more than you love your family."
He shrugged. "I never said it was in order! Although technically that's cheating, because you are both my friend and my family. So I guess it would go Family and friends, your cock, work, my guitar and...food. I love food."
Chris laughed. "Fine, I won't withhold it. But we can't do it here."
Darren grabbed Chris' laptop and opened it. "I'm booking us a hotel. And don't give me that look. We'll go and spend one night. Maybe 2." he started typing into the search box. "I kind of need a night away from Cory anyways. I mean, hockey's cool and all but reruns of hockey? Not so cool."
Chris laughed. "Yeah, when they redid my trailer, I shared his. Never again. Next time I'll sit under a tree or something. I offered to stay with him instead of you."
Darren nodded. "I know, and I knew there would be a lot of hockey but we don't watch anything else. I had to pull out my laptop to check the weather this morning!"
"Why don't you try to find someone else to stay with? I'm sure he'd understand. As long as you won't scare Naya, you can stay with her."
Darren shrugged. "I'll think about it. Naya scares the crap out of me sometimes."
Chris shook his head. "She's only messing with you. She's actually so insanely sweet, its ridiculous. Here, I'll text her and ask her if its cool." He pulled out his phone and started typing away.
Darren smiled and closed the laptop. "We're all booked for 2 nights. Friday and Saturday. I figured we weren't working then so we'd have more time."
Chris kissed him. "Sounds perfect." he grabbed his phone when it vibrated. "Naya says you're welcome at her place as long as you don't sleep walk, and don't make her watch any disney movies." Chris looked up at him. "Well, you won't sleep walk. We'll just have to watch the disney movies here instead."
Its still considered fluff if you refer to sex...right? I think so. Thank you guys for all the reviews and everything! I read every single one, and I keep trying to comment on them. I spend too much time on tumblr/facebook. But seriously, I read every single one and you always make me smile, so keep 'em coming!
