Tavros raised a brow and frowned. "Get me out? What do you mean get me out?" he asked and Gamzee grinned.
"See Tavbro. I wanted you home so a few days ago I talked to your dad and he all up and said he would sign you out after work!" he said excitedly. Tavros felt his face brighten into a wide smile.
"Really!? He will!" he said and Gamzee nodded.
"Yea man, today I think!" he said.
Tavros let out a sigh of relief. "Thank god, I've been here for way too long!" he said and Gamzee nodded. "I all up and miss you bro." Tavros smiled shyly. "I miss you too. I really just want to go home." Tavros was about to speak but was cut off by the nurse from before calling out for him. "But..It hasn't been..enough time.." he muttered sadly as she caught up to him. "Oh, I know. But your older brother is here to pick you up." she said with a grin and Tavros' head shot up and he looked around, eyes landing on Rufioh standing at the doorway. Tavros' bag already in his hands. The nurse wheeled Tavros towards his brother and Gamzee walked along with them from the other side of the fence. When Tavros reached his brother the taller boy wrapped his arms around Tavros' shoulders. "Hey buddy. Ready to go home?" he asked and Tavros nodded happily. "Let's go!" he said. Rufio chuckled and ruffled the younger's mohawk. "Well alright then." he said as he started wheeling the boy from the hospital, stopping on the other side of the fence as Gamzee stepped into his path. He smiled as the young man grabbed Tavros and held him close, lifting him clear from the wheelchair and causing a small squeak of surprise from the other. Gamzee started to walk away until Rufio clicked his tongue, catching his attention. "Car is over there!" he said, motioning to his old, slightly beat up Impala. Gamzee grinned before carrying Tavros over to the waiting car. After sliding him in and helping Rufioh fold up the wheelchair Gamzee turned to leave. Tavros looked at Rufioh for a moment and when his older brother nodded at the desperate expression his eyes lit up. "Gamzee wait! Come back with us!" he said, reaching out slightly for the older male. Gamzee raised a brow.
"Ah, but Tavbro you should be with your family now.." he said slowly and Tavros shook his head , the desperate expression came back onto his face.
"Please Gamzee?"
"But T avros..."
Rufioh rolled his eyes and pushed Gamzee's shoulder. "Get in the damn car." he said with a grin. Gamzee stumbled a bit but after a moment he chuckled and climbed in next to his smaller latino friend. Tavros smiled and leaned gently against Gamzee absently, closing his eyes. Gamzee raised his arm and wrapped it around his friend, smiling a bit to himself. He was ecstatic that the latino was okay and back with him. He looked up and in the mirror and his eyes met with those of Rufioh. The older smiled back at him before looking back at the road. Gamzee's eyes traveled back to Tavros and looked him over, wanting to take in all he could after having almost lost him. He took in how the younger's dark skin was nearly flawless, only a few small marks littered his face. His lips, slightly full and set in a permanent hint of a smile looked almost kissable...wait? Kissable? Gamzee shook his head to clear it. There was no way in hell he had just thought like that about his best friend! He couldn't have! Before he could dwell on it to much Tavros shifted, his soft hair gently rubbing against Gamzee's chin and it took all of Gamzee's will power not to reach up and run his fingers through the locks. He bit his lip and finally closed his eyes, leaning away from tavros just enough to allow the other to still rest on his shoulder. Tavros had seemed to doze off now as Gamzee noted his breaths were slow, deep and peaceful.
Gamzee's violet eyes glanced out the window at the passing cars and buildings, mind wandering back to the thoughts from before. 'Why the hell did I want to kiss Tavbro? I mean... It's not like I like him like that right? Even if I did I know he isn't gay1 He was in love with Vriska for so long...but I just..' his thoughts drifted off and he let out a deep sigh, leaning his forehead against his free hand. He'd have to do this later, they were almost to Tavros' home now. Gamzee knew the area well enough and just before pulling into the driveway he reached over and gently stroked Tavros' hair. "Tavbro..Tav wake up." he said quietly, breath nearly hitching as those deep brown eyes opened and peered up at him hazily. "What is it Gamzee?"
"You're home brother."
Holy crap. I am so sorry! I know this took forever and I have no excuses. I just have writers block at the moment so...sorry!
