I think we forgot what it mean to be Billy and Teddy in the first place. [ things had gotten so complicated at home. They lost sight what why they loved each other so much.
He unwrapped his arms from around his legs and reached out, closing his hand over Teddy's which was still gripping the edge of the roof. ]
[He's startled by the display, considering all that's been said, but he softens a moment later, his hand relaxing before he turns it palm-side up and laces their fingers together.]
I think we might have. But I still love you, too. Even when I went away, that didn't stop.
[He'd wanted to call him every single day. Hell, twice he'd almost bought a bus ticket and turned back.]

He gives him a small hopeful smile. ]
So, date?
no subject
Yeah. I'll come pick you up at your room and everything. Dinner and a movie, maybe?
[Or is that a little too cliche'd? Although, the two of them tended to have superior taste when it came to movies.]
no subject
Except you don't know where my room is. [ he says it's teasingly. ]
no subject
[Seems reasonable, right? He grins back, teasing as well.]
But since I already denied you the chance to give me a fake phone number, I figured I'd give you one more shot to get out of it if you wanted.

[ He squeezes Teddy's hand. ]
So when should I be ready?
no subject
[He smiles a bit sheepishly, rubbing at the back of his neck with his free hand. He's not really up on whatever calendar Wonderland uses.]
Tomorrow night? Is that too soon?
no subject
[ Time and calendars are so weird here. ]
As long as it's not too soon for you. I know this place is an adjustment.
[ He doesn't want to make that harder. ]
no subject
Tomorrow night, then. I can't think of any better way to try and adjust.
