brandon and Rowan from the show tagged but how their lives go in season 3, separated and sometimes not as much.
real quick trigger warning!!! story does talk abt self harm, nothing too graphic just very depressing.
I wake up to one of the officers shaking me. "Pack your stuff lover boy. You're getting out early. An hour and a half. Hurry up." "Lover boy?" I mumble, not processing anything. "You were making kissy sounds in your sleep. Gross. But pack up Darrow. And make it quick. I'm tired of your ass." I roll my eyes and get up. I'm getting out!. It's Friday. So im gonna have two days free. Hopefully I get to see Row in between then. I pack up my stuff as quickly as I can and lay back down in my 'bed.' It's basically a few pillows put together and.... well maybe a sheet. But anyways, my plan is to go my house. Get changed and then go to the park I know she loves and goes to a lot. Please let her be there. I'll wait there until she comes, and then I'll see her. And it'll be fine. If she still even cares about me. Or remembers what I look like, at al- "Darrow! Come on!" The officer yells. I sigh and get back up. Row, here I come.
—————————— rowan; after school ——————————
I text Trevor to see if he wants to go for a walk. For once I'll have some company.
me; trev, wanna take a walk w me in the park for a little? im bored and could use the exercise tbh... Trevor; first of all, u do not need to exercise u look fine. and sure. meet me there at 3:20? me; yup
It's 3:15. So I probably should be in the car. But I'm not. I grab my keys and my phone and walk out of my house, rushing to the park so I'm not late.
I meet trev there and say hi. "So which way do you usually go?" He asks. I shrug. "Straight." I say. He snorts from behind me. I turn around and push him. "You're annoying." I roll my eyes. We walk a little farther until we reach the table section. "Wanna sit?" He asks. I shrug. "Eh. Not now."
—————————— brandon: same time —————————— I'm sitting at a table at the end of the rows of tables in the park. I stopped at some store and got a few flowers (aka fake roses) to give to her Incase all goes bad. I hear two people talking and footsteps and I turn to see Rowan and Trevor!. I'm silent until they get closer. Slowly they come near my table and I don't think they see me. I stand up and walk towards Rowan, waiting for her to see who I am.
——— rowan ——— Who the fuck is walking towards me right now? Creep. I keep walking straight until I see the guy has black hair, a nice ass jawline, and... holy fucking shit. Is that B R A N D O N? I stop walking and so does Trevor. I grab his arm and almost scream. Actually, I do make some kind of noise. He has a flower or two in his pocket. His hair is so much lighter and his face looks exhausted and beaten down. I let go of Trevor and run towards Brandon. I fling my arms around his neck and hug him. He's shocked and still at first until he hugs back. Tears are streaming down my face. I pull away and look him up and down. Finally, I kiss him.

It's amazing. Everything I've missed. Is there. Specifically, him. He is finally back.

I pull away and smile. "I've been waiting to do that for so long." I say. "You're not the only one." He replies. I smile again. Brandon looks behind me and sees Trevor, still standing there completely shaken. Brandon walks over to trevor and hugs him too. "I missed you a lot," Brandon tells him. "Yeah, me too." Trevor responds. I have to tell Brandon I called in the thing. "Brandon.... I have something to tell you." I start. "I know," He replies. I look confused. "What?" "I know you called it in. Or whatever. I figured it out while I was in there." "And you don't hate me?" I say as my voice cracks slightly. "No. Not at all. I deserved it. I was a terrible person. This was almost lucky that I got off with three months." He replies half-smiling. Trevor winks at me. "I'm gonna leave you two alone. Brandon, talk to me soon." He smiles and walks away. "Jesus Christ." Brandon mutters when Trevor's gone. "What?" I ask. "You're just as beautiful as I remember." I smile. "i missed you so much," I sigh. "Row... please tell me you didn't hurt yourself because of me?" He asks. I don't know how tf he noticed, considering he's just back now. But okay, mind reader Brandon. Cool. "'No! Not because of you. I missed you and was lonely." I stutter. I don't know what to say. I'm still in shock. It was kind of about him, but not in a bad way. Well... I did kinda feel like shit after everything with the zoo and that technically was his fault, but I'm trying to get over that. There's no way I can let that stuff hurt me anymore. It went on for way too long and I was way too dumb. I just want to kiss him again. "It's okay. We're gonna get through it." He pushes a piece of hair out of my face and behind my ear. "I like the flowers," I laugh, lightening the mood. "I tried to be fancy, but there shockingly aren't very good 'Hey I just got out of jail and I'm in love with you!' Flowers." Brandon says. "What was that last part?" I smile and ask. "Flowers?" "Before that..." I roll my eyes. "I'm in love with you?" He says again. "Oh really?" I ask with a grin. My heart is thriving right now. "I guess so, Rowan." "Well, Brandon," I say. "I'm in love with you too." I reply.

One more kiss. It's just as good as the first one.
————- brandon ————-
So she doesn't hate me. And she didn't forget about me. And I'm in love with her. And so is she. So it's going pretty well if I say so myself.
