"Are you saying yes to fake dating him?" Ailith asked, slamming her hand down on the table. "If you don't answer we'll just move onto the next available twink." Marcus just about collapsed in embarrassment.

"Um…" He hesitated. Marcus was cute but it was just a fake relationship. "Sure." His mouth answered before his mind could process the question.

Mercury looked up suddenly. "Really?" He asked, surprised. "You'd be meeting my family. Not to mention you'd be giving up your holiday break, and we'll be stuck in a car for eight hours driving there and back. We don't even know each other!"

He shrugged. "My family hates me for being gay and I have zero friends except Megan but she's going to New York for the holidays so it's not like I had any plans over the break anyway." He bit his lip, glancing up at Mercury, accidentally looking innocently hot.

Mercury felt heat rise to his cheeks. "Um, I-"

Cass released Marcus suddenly, turning his attention to Jay. "He could be a murderer," he said, "you're okay with possibly getting murdered?"

"Death would be merciful on my life so yes." He brushed his hair out of his eyes, scanning the group slowly.

"Fucking Gen Z kids," Cassian muttered, crossing his arms.

"Darling, you're one of us, no matter how much you try to deny it," Virgil teased, staring at Cass as if he were his world. Ailith looked at Marcus and mouthed the word 'darling'. Marcus shrugged.

"Uh, I guess I'll meet you tomorrow?" Mercury said, turning back to Jay. "We'll be staying for at least a week, so make sure to pack whatever you need."

(Want to time skip to them getting into the car?)
