    Summary

    Ryan’s eyes scan past them all, not exactly sure what he’s looking for, but he lets out a sigh of disappointment anyway.

    But then he sees him.

    He doesn’t stand a little straighter, hoping to get picked like the others. In fact, he’s sitting down on the edge of the curb, eyes not focused on anything specifically, a cigarette dangling loosely from his lips. His elbows rest lightly on his knees. He’s wearing light colored jeans and a black hoodie with minimal stains.

    Ryan can’t see much of his face in the low lights but he catches the dark shimmering color of his eyes. His straight brunette strands of hair fall onto his forehead messily, tickling the smooth skin of his face.

    Ryan watches each face drop as he drives by the boys until he pulls up to exactly who he has his eyes on.

    It takes a second for the other boy to even realize Ryan is there. But then he looks up with wide brown eyes that make Ryan’s stomach go light.

    .

    .

    .

    Or an alternate universe where there is no demon. Just two boys who learn to overcome their shame, trauma, and sadness. And fall in love.

    Summary

    They leave Bandee, but Bandee doesn't leave them.

    Naim and Ryan can’t leave the scars that the entities have given them behind. They can’t always stop the entities from giving them more. All they can do is learn how to talk about it, even when some wounds go deeper than others.

    Or, over days, weeks, and months, they open up.

    Summary

    "Yeah?" Naim echoed, aroused by this. "Would you have punched me?"

    Ryan jerked back slightly, "What the fuck, Naim?"

    "Would you?" Naim asked, gripping Ryan's arm. "Just — hit me. Slap me. If you were mad enough?"

    Ryan licked his lips. Swallowed. "Dunno. Would you want me to?"

    "Kinda," Naim confessed, kissing Ryan. He reached down to grope Ryan's hardening cock. "Is that weird?"

    Sometimes, Naim needed fear. Controlled fear. Controlled discipline. It helped reel him out of the spiral of anxiety he got in. Ryan understood this. It was the most out-there comment he'd ever made, though.

     

    --

    Roughly five months after their escape. They're still wounded. They still love each other.

    Summary

    “So, what now? We keep catching coaches from shithole to shithole?”

    A mosquito pricks Ryan’s neck and he smacks it away. He thinks about the weight of Naim’s head on his shoulder on the bus, the tinny melodies emitted by cheap earphones filling the space between them. Remembers how settled he’d felt, how uncertain yet still oddly calm, having only the vaguest idea where he was going but being sure about who he was going with. He looks at Naim. “Maybe, yeah.”

    /

    Ryan and Naim keep going.
