Bustop went on about his way up the hill. He knew what sex was VERY well, but he was just too stupid to realize the quite obvious innuendo in his own words. "Let's go! I want to do the game!" He exclaimed "Whoohoo! Sports!"

Charlie sighed, laughing a little as he followed the energetic Bustop up the road to the stadium.

Once Bustop got to the torn down doors his smile was almost glowing. "This is…" he started "Soooooooo COOL!!"

He chuckled. Charlie walked out onto the field, which was littered with trash and rubble. There were a few old footballs off to the side, as if they had fallen out of a cart.

Bustop ran onto the field. His mouth was agape in shock at the sheer size of it "Big." Was all that he could muster to say.

He nodded. “Yep…”
There were still some human skeletons in the stands, forgotten over time. The turf was mostly uprooted, but some spots remained.

Bustop ran to one of the balls and posed, one of his arms stretched in front of him, the other clutching the half deflated ball, his legs in running position "This is how the guy on the cover of that magazine was standing"

Charlie chuckled a little.
How is he so cute?!

Bustop started sprinting towards Charlie, leaping forward in each step. He tackled Charlie in a matter of seconds, knocking him to the ground, grabbing his back, careful not to hurt him. "Do I win??" He asked excitedly

“Oof- yep, yep, you win-“ Charlie winced. He wasn’t badly hurt, but his skin is very thin, so a few pieces of rubble managed to scrape him up a bit.
Why was that hot-

Bustop smiled, lifting himself with his arms keeping his knees on the ground, and looked down at Charlie. He looked cute. Bustop and kissed Charlie on the cheek and got up "Thanks for doing this for me… you know, travelling and all"

His face grew redder than the old scrap of a Coca-Cola can in his bag. He wasn’t used to romantic affection.

Bustop stared at Charlie's face "I'm so sorry!" He exclaimed "Did I make you uncomfortable?! I should've asked before just… agh!" He turned around, hands on his head "Sorrysorrysorry"

He shook his head. “N-no, I liked it, I’m just…. not exactly used to this…”

Bustop sighed heavily "Oh… good, nice, good" he stuttered "Sorry, it's just… I'm so used to kissing so many of my friends, I never really thought it was odd… until just now" he blushed a little, the purple of his face deepening into a wine color. "Anyways" he brushed himself off "What else is there in this city?"

“It’s not odd, I’m just not around people much….”
Charlie spotted something shiny in the rubble, and crouched down to pick it up. “The cities are…. really noisy, and bright, and there are a lot of people….. it’s a little overwhelming if you’re there for too long…. but the food is really good….”
He was practically drooling at the thought of Strohgn’s wide variety of food vendors and restaurants.
“You haven’t truly lived until you’ve tasted the food of Strohgn. It’s delicious.”

"Well then what are we waiting for?!" Bustop yelled, forgetting what just happened and began to head out of the stadium "Lets go!"

He smiled a little. “Strohgn is fairly close by, since it’s in what used to be West Virginia…..I need to make a few stops for supplies, so we could look around a bit while we’re there.”

"Ver-gin-ee-uh" Bustop chewed the word, as if it didn't belong in his mouth " Weird name. But yeah, we can make stops" he thought to himself for a second and then said excitedly " I think I have a friend who was also headed to Strohgn, maybe we'll bump into him!"

Charlie nodded. “Maybe we will.”
He began walking after Bustop, showing him the way. He fiddled with his hands.

As they walked to Strohgn Bustop would talk endlessly, telling stories about his friends, commenting on their surroundings, or even tell fairy tales that he learned over the years. As he spoke he would hop up and down and gesticulate wildly.

Charlie smiled the entire time.
so cute….

"Are we there yet?" Bustop asked "I hope we're almost there". He made these comments almost the entire way.

When they arrived, Charlie already began to feel like he was home again. Strohgn’s vast skyline of massive metal buildings, patched up and built off of original buildings. The city was buzzing with people. This area was pretty far away from the nearest blast, so buildings were, for the most part, intact. Controlled fires and neon lights dotted the city. Vendors lined the streets, selling anything anyone could ever want. Charlie began walking through the Main Street, so Bustop could look around.

Bustop's eyes practically began to glow when he came to see the immense bustling heap of a place this was. Strohgn looked ten times bigger than Bustop had dreamed. His red eyes darted everywhere, and all four of his ears were veered in different directions, as he tried to take it all in. The sounds of people trying to coax others to buy their things, arguments happening in nearby alleys and children playing in the busy streets filled his ears. He couldn't take it all in at once and once he saw it all his head began to spin. He grabbed onto Charlie's arm for support, hoping to find some type of grounding sense of safety with the taller boy. He did. For the first time in a while, Bustop finally shut up. He was absolutely in awe.
