It was an early, typical tuesday. Boombox woke up, slingshot's arm doing over his neck, and skateboard already out of bed. He was already so comfy... Just a few more minutes wouldn't hurt, right?
He slept for another hour. Slingshot gently shook him awake after awhile "Boomy, Boomy... Wake up..." " Hhhhhhh..? " Boombox mumbled, but got up reluctantly at the sound of his voice. "Morning, love" slingshot smiled warmly him. "Hehe.. Morning.." Boombox always got insanely flustered whenever someone called him affectionate names like that; he was a sucker for them. "How are you feeling, Boomy? You were talking an awful lot in your sleep.." Uh oh.
Boombox always had the wildest dreams. Well, wild in the sense that he dreamed about horrible scenarios only anxious unstable paranoid people would stir up. What if everyone he loved suddenly disappeared? What if he got charged for a crime he didn't commit and got locked up in jail for the rest of his life? Or worst of all.. what if Sling and Skate left him forever? That was what scared him the most. Generic, I know, but he always thought to himself that one day that'd happen.
Skateboard was getting ready to go skate for a bit, something he always did in the mornings he had free time. He put on a random red baggy shirt, some jeans, his backpack, (lord knows what's inside, he won't let anyone know) and got his board and left. Odd. Wouldn't he say he was going? He shut the door kinda hard anyways. Slingshot glanced at Boombox worriedly. "Is something wrong with him? I've never seen him like this before.." Boombox paused before he said anything; but then replied with this " Maybe he's just tired. Best not to worry, okay? Slingshot nodded, but still looked a bit anxious. I mean, no one could blame him anyways. Skateboard almost was never like that!
Slingshot had to get ready for work anyways; no time to dabble in about Skateboard right now. He owned the cat cafe in Crossroads, how fitting. The cat cafe was his favorite place in the whole world.. He worked there with his Vinestaff and Shuriken, who even though not related by blood, he considered them his siblings because they were all so close. He awkwardly changed the subject. "Uh, Boomy? I uh, like kinda gotta go so like, uh.." He sheepishly grinned, holy sfoth that was painful. "Right now? Seriously, Sling?" Slingshot swallowed hard. In all honesty, he just needed to just. . not worry about stuff right now, and his work was the best way to take his mind off of stuff, since he could just be around his family (and all the kitties there, which were his favorite even if he would never admit that.)Boombox sighed. "Fine.. Just, be back soon, okay? Last night you weren't home till midnight." He looked at Slingshot worriedly. Both Boombox and Skateboard were really worried that night when he didn't respond to their texts or call after he'd been gone for WAY longer than normal. Slingshot opened his mouth, about to repsond, but refrained from saying anything. He just nodded and went to the bathroom to get ready.
He quickly got in the shower and signed as he felt the warm water fall over him. All his anxiety immediately vanished like water putting out fire, and he finally relaxed for a bit. He closed his eyes for a bit, but started zoning out and only realized what was happening after 5 minutes of standing there. "Oh sfoth I'm gonna be late at this rate! I didn't even BEGIN to clean up yet! Ugh!" He whined and got out quickly , throwing on his old clothes and rushing to the cafe.
