[Eric]vacation

[Phoenix Eden Goyle]

He wasn’t used to plane rides one bit. It was so long, just sitting there. Eric seemed to sleep most of the way and not much was said. He also seemed so calm, like he was used to it, but with how long the have known each other, it didn’t seem possible that he would be used to it. Phoenix couldn’t remember him ever going on a trip. That wasn’t to say that he didn’t go before meeting him. Eric was from a normal family, one that was full of love for all their kids. It wasn’t like his, that, even if they took a vacation, they would’ve left him behind.

He tried a few times to go to sleep, but he couldn’t get comfortable. The attendants were also becoming annoying. They kept coming up to him, seeing if he needed anything. Phoenix just kept saying no. As everybody else on the plane seemed to sleep, he would sit there, wondering if this was a bad idea. He would really dread the plane ride coming back. Hopefully, it wouldn’t be so bad, but he was sure that it would be just as bad, if not worse. The seats were in threes. He and Eric were sitting next to each other, of course, but Eric was at the window and Phoenix was in the middle, right next to an elderly muggle woman that sparked up a conversation with him about her grandkids, who she was visiting. She showed him a few pictures of them and he wished his family was as loving as everyone else seemed to be.

The plane then came to a landing at the airport and he was able to leave. He followed Eric to the luggage claim, where they got his luggage and then they went out. Phoenix had to get to a hotel. He needed to sleep and then they would have to get something to eat. He was actually feeling a little sick. Probably jetlag or it could be something else. He wasn’t really sure if jetlag would really apply here. A taxi picked them up and brought them to a hotel. They didn’t have to pay for the taxi or the hotel. The nice muggle woman he met on the plane decided to treat the boys. She was well endowed. She shared a cab with them and paid for that and she paid for the boys to stay in a suite. Phoenix thanked her, she said that it was nothing, and left for her room.

Their hotel room was very bit and spacious. Nice furnishings, and a queen sized bed. That lady must’ve realized that the two were dating. Phoenix collapsed on the bed and closed his eyes. He got comfortable really quickly and was asleep in no time.

Phoenix didn't seem very relaxed on the plane and Eric would bet that he'd never been on one before. In fact, he knew that he hadn't. He knew everything about this kid and never once were his family on vacation. His, on the other hand, had gone a few times and he was as comfortable in the air as he was on land. He sure hoped that Nix would relax soon though. It would ruin the trip if he didn't. Eric slept. He tried to stay awake for as long as he could, but sleep called his name and he was forced to surrender. Sleep was a powerful force and not to be reckoned with. Can't fight sleep and win.

When he woke up, he talked a bit to Phoenix, talking animatedly about this trip. It was sure to be fun. He spoke to the old woman that Phoenix seemed to have made friends with and was glad that he hadn't been bored while he slept. Eric wanted to relax some, but he could sence Nix tension and he felt it too. When you dated someone for so long, you couldn't relax if they couldn't. He put his head on Nix's shoulder, whispered I love you and closed his eyes again. Sure enough, sleep came once again.

He didn't wake up again until the plane landed. He grabbed his carry on bag and walked into the airport, right after Nix, who seemed to relax since they were on the ground. Eric got the rest of his bags and the two shared a cab with that old lady, who also paid for thier hotel suite. He didn't really like this charity, but what else could he do? There was no way that he was going to hurt her feelings by denying it. He was forced to accept it. Up in their room, he went exploring as Phoenix fell right to sleep. Eric smiled at his boyfriend sleeping. He took off his shoes and tucked him into bed. Kissing him goodnight. He decided he'd have to do some exploring alone for right now.

He left the hotel and walked around, looking around as he went. He would stay out for a bit and then grab some food and return to the hotel so they could eat. That night, maybe he and Nix would stay in, have some fun and then sleep. Tomorrow they could start thier sight seeing, but Eric wanted Nix all to himself that night. He grinned to himself as he walked around, recieving some odd looks from people he pa*sed, but he didn't care. He had to smile. He had every right to smile.

After a few hours, he returned to the hotel, ordered room service, and set the table up before going to the bed and waking Phoenix up. Eric had a feeling that this would be a rather fun vacation.

Phoenix dreamt of his future. This wasn't like a vision and he couldn't be sure if it would actually come true. He and Eric were together and would always be together. They would become life partners, vow thier love for each other and wear rings, but wouldn't actually get married. They would adopt kids and live happily ever after. It wasn't something that he wanted to wake up from. He liked dreams more than reality sometimes.

He was roused awake, though, when Eric shaked him awake. He looked at the man and smiled. He sat up, rubbed the sleep away from his eyes and stood. "I'm going to steal some of your clothes," Phoenix told Eric, wondering if he'd even fit into his clothes. Probably not, but he most certainly was not going to be disgusting and wear the same clothes everyday until they go home. Next trip, he wouldn't be so anxious to leave that he doesn't pack.

He got cleaned up, put on a pair of Eric's sweat pants and a shirt that he had bought Eric that was too big for him. He bought it for him a few years ago, back when he didn't know what size he wore. Phoenix went out and found Eric at the table. Two plates, candles and food, a romantic evening. He had a feeling he knew what Eric had in mind. This night was just for them. He sat down and started filling his plate with lemon peppered chicken, Au gratin patotes and spinach. Perfect, all his favorites. "You really know how to treat a guy," Phoenix said. "So what did you do while I slept?"
