dumb sad boys

Who: Lauren and Susan
What: dumb brothers being sad - continued from here OKAY NOW IT'S ACTUALLY A CATCH-ALL LAUREN+SUSAN POST FOR PRE-ALOLA JUNK
When: Day 68 at night a variety, starting with night of day 68
Where: their trailer

Although he eventually came out of the bathroom that first night, Susan still didn't talk to Lauren. Instead he avoided his brother as best he could, falling asleep curled up with Fluff (and Stanley, if she let him) on the bed.

The next day he went out, even though Lauren had told him not to; he didn't know a lot about vampires, and even though he felt bad doing it (especially when he was still worried about Lauren), he was pretty sure they couldn't go out in the sun, so it was an easy way to not have to talk to him. He didn't want another argument, not any more - not that he knew what else to do, not when he was feeling pretty bad now, but that didn't matter. He just didn't want Lauren to yell at him and tell him he's wrong.

By that night, though, he still wasn't feeling any better - and even though he still didn't want to really talk to his brother, he still missed him and wanted to be with him.

Once it was late, and he was sure Lauren would be asleep, Susan quietly left the sofa where he'd been originally planning on sleeping, instead slipping into the room with his brother. From there he quietly made his way to the bed, climbing under the covers while being as careful as he could to not wake him.

It works, for the moment at least. Lauren doesn't wake up as Susan slips in under the covers. Even if he does, it's only to move closer to his brother, glad to be sleeping next to him even if his conscious mind isn't aware of it. It's not until the early morning hours that he wakes up and realizes that Susan is in bed with him. It's confusing at first, and strange, but he doesn't move to wake Susan up yet. He didn't want another argument, he just kind of wanted to enjoy being with his brother for a little bit. He watches Susan sleep, brushing some of his brothers messy hair out of his face.

He feels sad, watching Susan sleep, and he's surprised when he realizes it. It's hard for him, most of the time, to recognize his feelings, but right now there is no confusing what this is. He's sad, because he hasn't spoken to his brother in two days. He can't remember the last time he hadn't spoken to him for that long, but now everything felt so messed up. He gently shifts, putting a hand on Susan's shoulder to try and get him to wake.

He watches his brother, not really surprised at how long it takes him to finally stir. Susan's eyes blearily open, and he suddenly feels nervous, though he isn't sure why. He hold's Susan's gaze, though he wants to look away.

"...I'm sorry."

He just smiles sadly, "Didn't I?"

He sighs, "I don't know what else to say."

He just doesn't want to go back to the silence of the past few days.

He looks away. It was so rare for Susan not to have anything to say.

"Don't start avoiding me."

He falls quiet too, never really one for speaking in the first place, and just hold Susan as they lay on the bed together.

He shakes his head, "No... I just don't understand."

"If not even you get it what hope is there for me?" he asks with another sad smile.

[personal profile] mylastchance 2017-03-28 04:07 am (UTC)(link)
He sighs, "Well, explain it to me."

He hugs Susan, closer. "And what if I don't?"
