It’s not my favorite thing in the world. But I’m still gonna be all over your ass from here. I’ll be yelling at the TV.

Caleb

Promises, promises.

Miguel

You’re taking the weighted blanket.

Caleb

It’s massive. I’ll literally suffocate in my sleep.

Miguel

You’ve literally asked me to suffocate you before, cálmate.

The blanket is going. Non-negotiable.

Caleb

Miguel

And one of my hoodies. One of the good ones. The black one or the blue one, which smells like me and your questionable life choices.

Caleb

I like how you assume I haven’t already planned on stealing like three of them before I go.

Miguel

That’s my little thief.

I’ll make you a care package.

Snacks, earplugs, eye mask, maybe a tiny laminated card that says “if found dissociating, please return to…”

Caleb

Not funny.

Miguel

Caleb


That’s illegal. Don’t use my past against me.

Miguel

I’m gonna use whatever I have to keep you from crawling out of your skin in a hotel three states away, hermoso.
