after setting up his tent ,  he grabbed his book that he'd read at least 20 times before ,  and grabbed a hammock from one of the wagons .  he found a good spot with two sturdy trees that were close enough but far enough apart to tie up the hammock to .  he made sure it wouldn't break on him before carefully sliding into it .  he rested his book on his chest ,  crossed his legs ,  and closed his eyes .

the gentle swing almost lulled him to sleep ,  and he'd begun to doze off before he heard footsteps and a familiar voice a little too close by .  he opened one eye and raised a brow at him .

" hey ,  it's my turn .  can i join you ? "

holland scoffed ,  but his soft grin was genuine as he closed both eyes again and put his hands behind his head .  " you know this thing can only hold one person ,  right ? "

" okay ,  then let me have a turn . "

he opened his eyes and frowned incredulously at the boy in front of him ,  who looked ready to climb into the hammock whether or not holland got out .

" rory ,  i've been in this for like a half hour ,  and i'm pretty sure there are other ha-  RORY ! "

roy started to climb into the hammock ,  making it swing to the point holland almost fell out .  he cursed under his breath .

" rory ,  jesus christ ,  you're gonna break it- "  " i told you it's my turn ,  so if anyone's breaking it ,  it's you . "  " that doesn't even make sense .  oh my god- "

somehow ,  rory fit himself on the other end of the hammock .  he stretched out his legs while holland made himself as small as possible without falling out of it .  holland sighed heavily and wiped a hand over his face ,  slapping at rory's foot when he nudged him .

" you're killing me ,  rory .  you're killing me . "

but around holland , he could slip through the cracks. be a side of him that he otherwise felt as if he couldn't be. anyone else , and he probably wouldn't have gave a fuck about the hammock. it was a hammock. but his purpose for invading holland's personal space for this thing wasn't just because he wanted to be in it , but because he liked bothering the other.

this was the most fucking uncomfortable thing in the world , he had to admit. he tossed and turned until he could sort of fit himself properly into the hammock. "trust me , this is an honor," he teased holland. if he really wanted to be in the hammock , he'd have threatened to kick any regular shmuck's ass in it. but luckily but holland, he isn't any regular person.

rory slides his hand in the back of his head , propping his elbow on holland's legs. "what shape is that cloud?" he asked , pointing his finger up towards the sky. he glances down at holland , lightly poking him with the hell of his foot to further coerce him. "i see a whale."
