Evan sat down beside Jonathan on the park bench just as his phone began to ring. He slipped the cell out of his pocket as it played the Terroriser rap by Spaceman Chaos.

"One minute, Brian's calling."

"Don't tell him,"

"I'm not, I'm the god of acting and trolls, remember?" they both smiled slyly as Evan cleared his throat, answering the call and putting it on speaker, "Hey,"

"Ey." Terroriser replied, his voice came out sketchy and muffled from the speakers of the cell phone, "How you doin'?"

"Good, what's new with you?" Evan smiled.

"Not much, man, just wanted to let you know I'm heading down there today."

Delirious opened his mouth but stopped himself from blowing his cover. It was difficult to stay quiet, there was so much he wanted to say.

"Pretty late, you're usually here way earlier." Vanoss raised a brow, looking straight ahead as he held the phone in his palm.

"Yeah, I know," Brian sighed, "just been trying to catch up on other stuff. But I'll be there by tomorrow, Mini there yet?"

"I don't think so, but who knows he could be outside my door right now." Evan grinned as did Jon, they could hear Brian laugh over the speaker.

"Probably is, heh. Well, Brock and I were wondering if you want to join us in GTA in about 30 minutes? Nogla and Wildcat said that they might come and we're going to ask Lui and Mr. Busy Del."

Vanoss chuckled and looked over at Jonathan, who was covering his mouth with the palm of his hand, his chest and shoulders shook in silent laughter.

"Sounds good, see you then."

"See ya."

Jon busted out laughing as soon as the call was ended, copied by Evan. When they both calmed down, Evan decided he might as well ask, "So, now that you've got the mask, where're you going now?"

"Hm...probably back to my hotel. Why?"

Evan shrugged, "I dunno, just thought that maybe since I know you're here now, you'd might want to stay with me. But it's fine." he chuckled silently at the reaction on Jon's face. Delirious' eyes rounded wide and his lips parted slightly.

"R-really?"

"Sure, you don't have to though."

Jonathan couldn't believe it. In a short period of about an hour and a half, he had already met his best friend and was now being invited to his house to stay during his trip, "I...o-okay!"

"I'll help get your stuff, too, if you don't mind."

"N-no! Not at all! Thanks!"

"Hey, Delirious,"

"H-huh?"

Evan grinned, "Stop stuttering, I'm not the fucking Pope."

Jonathan laughed, "S-shut up! Whatever, here, I'll take you to the hotel. Thanks so much!"

"No problem," Evan smiled and stood up, followed by Jon, who was still crazily excited.


Jonathan turned the knob and pushed the door open, allowing Vanoss to enter first.

"This is where you're staying?"

Jon chuckled lightly and shut the door, "I wasn't planning on staying long. What? Don't like it?" he asked the question even though he himself had been disappointed at the first glance.

"Well, it's good compared to those average places in less populated areas, but for L.A.? This is a piece of shit, man!" Evan responded, and loved the sound of Jon's laughter.

"You think so, huh?"

"I know so!"

"Well then, I guess it's a good thing you found me." Jonathan smiled warmly and stripped off his jacket. Evan couldn't help but smile back, he always got a strange, excited feeling when Jon smiled…or laughed, or breathed, or smirked, or-….well, he loved it all. He had only just met his best friend face-to-face nearly 2 hours ago, and already was ready to mentally shoot himself for the thoughts running through his head.

"Anyway, I haven't been here long, so packing everything won't be a problem." Jon lifted a bag and glanced over at his open suitcase, but Evan got there first. He cut Delirious off, grabbing a pair of pants and a shirt and stuffing them into the case before zipping it up and standing back up with the handle in his grip.

Jonathan shook his head lightly and blinked, as if forgetting the whole reason Evan was here was to help him pack. He got over it, however, and grinned, "Thanks, honey."

"No prob, babe." Evan rolled with the gay jokes and looked around, "This it?"

"Yep,"

"Damn, you really weren't planning on staying long!"

"Yep."

Jon grunted quietly as he swung the bag over his shoulder, "Where's the stuff from the store?" he raised a brow but nodded when Evan grabbed the filled plastic bag sitting on the bed.

"Let's get out of this dump." stated Vanoss with a smirk as he pulled open the door to the tiny room. Jonathan forced his feet to follow, still trying to plan exactly how he was supposed to stay with Evan without completely going nuts. He had always dreamed of the day they'd meet, but now that it was happening he was ready to shit himself. Jon knew of course what Evan looked like, but didn't think he'd find him this attractive when meeting him.

Delirious shook his head again. Attractive?! What's wrong with you?! Just shut the fuck up, he's your FRIEND, not your dream husband!

He sighed but smiled when Evan turned to look at him, who grinned back. Seeing those smiles again, they both got that same odd feeling and, silently, they knew the truth.

Staying with you is going to be absolute Hell.


Evan had already taken Jonathan to his new room, and showed him around the house. They had called a cab to take them over, which was what Evan had done when beginning his walk that started it all. Jon was just resting a bit while his friend set up GTA.

"Where's Delirious? Still busy?" Lui questioned as soon as Evan joined the lobby, as if he were directing the question towards him because they were so close.

Evan shrugged and responded, "Not sure, he said he couldn't make it."

"Did that bastard say anything else?" Terroriser asked suspiciously, making Vanoss uncomfortable with all these questions that seemed to start flooding out as soon as he came.

"No, we talked a bit about spreadshirts and animations but he didn't tell me anything about his special 'business.'" It was a damn good thing Evan could lie when he wanted to, unfortunately he knew Brian and Brock wouldn't buy it, they knew him too well. Meanwhile, Lui decided to change the subject slightly.

"Well, he's not coming, but Nogla said he'd be here."

"Yeah, where is that Irish bitch?" Evan still had to give Daithi a good one for that H2OVanoss shit.

"Probably too busy growing potatoes," Tyler suggested, he had just joined the lobby not long after Evan.

"You racist bastard!" Brian yelled, "I'm comin' for you first!"

"Don't ya mean, 'ye' not 'you', fucktard?" Wildcat grinned and Lui giggled.

"Easy, easy, boys," Moo joined in as Terroriser's character pulled out a rocket and hopped out of his car beside Tyler, "don't you guys be fighting, or we'll be having ham for dinner with a side of potatoes."

"That's it, YE want to be on ME list?!" Brian turned on his "innocent" friend.

"No, don't do that!" Tyler gasped, "What will happen to Terrornuckel?"

"What will happen to what now?!"

"Oh dear god." Brock rested his head in his hands.

"Are we all being shipped now?" Evan laughed lightly.

"Yes, but you two pussies are the cutest." Tyler replied, his character then getting a bullet to the head.

"Terrornuckel, Minicat, and the god of them all; H2OVanoss/Vanelirious." Brian laughed loudly.

Brock snickered, "And don't forget Daithi De Calibre."

Lui yelled in his childish voice, "Hey!"

"Don't worry, Lui," Nogla suddenly chuckled, running over to monkey-masked character, "no one can top H2OVanoss."

"Nogla!" Evan whipped out an RPG and hopped into his car to track down the newcomer, "You're dead, motherfucker!"

"Hey, hey, hey, take it easy! I'm just the god of ships! The matchmaker!"

"Yeah, you're also the ugly ass bulldog Evan's about to eat for lunch!" Wildcat and the rest of the group laughed, and Evan stopped his car and took his hands from the controls as the phone buzzed.

"What part of 'trying to rest' do you not understand, motherfucker?"

Vanoss forgot that Jonathan was trying to relax and take a nap, as he had not gotten sleep in forever.

"Sorry! I'll close my door and try to keep it down!"

"You better."

"Sorrrrrryyyyyyy!"

"Lol, it's fine. You guys are playing GTA, I get it. You know how crazy that game gets."

"Yeah. Anyway, sorry. You just get some rest, E3 is in 2 days."

"I know, I will. G'night. (Just wake me up before dinner)."

"Will do, goodnight."

Evan smiled and turned back to the screen where he could see explosions in the distance.
