"hey pretty," eben whispered. the younger brunette lifted his head up from the grass to look through the screen at his boyfriend. he smiled weakly.

the boy was worn out from crying. he'd called eben, who was an aspiring producer, and his amazing boyfriend from the park a mile away from his house. his parents were getting on his ass about grades and he was done. he wanted an eben hug, and hearing his voice on facetime was the closest thing he could get while eben was in los angeles.

"zach, zachy," the blonde was losing his boyfriend to sleep, "it's getting late, you should go home." as much as the blonde wanted to stay up and talk and laugh with zach, it was nighttime and he was in a public park while it was raining. his safety was eben's top priority.

what he said next however, puzzled him.

"i am home," the other male whispered back. in all honesty, eben thought that the boy was asleep.

"bubs, please don't argue with me. i just want to keep you safe," the older tried. the younger sighed, getting up to walk home. he shook the raindrops out of his hair, to no prevail. the shimmering water droplets kept coming down. the sky was weeping. he trudged home, taking comfort in the soft breathing of his boyfriend and the shimmering light from his phone screen.

when he got home he held a finger to his lips, signaling for eben to stay quiet, as reese, ryan, and his parents were asleep.

he made it up to his bedroom softly closing the door behind him. setting the phone on his desk he stripped his wet sweater off, throwing it in the hamper beside his door.

the blonde watched. he was enthralled with the beauty of the person he got ot call his boyfriend. zach was his person. he could never had asked for a better one.

he smiled when zach finally crawled under the covers.

"goodnight," zach whispered.

"goodnight pretty," eben whispered back.

"and eben?" zach took a slow breath in, "home stopped being a place when you walked into my life, you are my home now,"

the blonde smiled back, nodding to show that he understood, it didn't matter though, the gentle breaths of the younger told him that his boy was asleep.

"i love you baby, goodnight"
