Chapter 3

"C'mon, Chris. I'm pretty sure this is the most expensive monkey food they've got in the place. I mean, they're just sea monkeys. Not like they need a gourmet meal. Darren whined and held a bag of sea monkey food up in front of Chris's face. They had been walking around in the same small pet store for over twenty minutes, and Darren was itching to get to the park a few blocks away.

"Alright, Darren." Chris sighed and grabbed the bag. "But I have to go home and feed them.." Before Darren could protest, Chris put a finger on his lips and lowered his voice. "Our... makeout session made me forget to feed them. Plus, didn't you say something about bringing your guitar?" He raised an eyebrow.

"Oh my gosh," Darren smacked his forehead. "I completely forgot!"

"Yeah," Chris rolled his eyes as he walked to the register to pay. "You take that thing everywhere."

"Well, you never know when you'll want to break out in song." Darren grinned brightly and watched as Chris rolled his eyes and smiled. "Oh, you know I'm right."

"Yeah, yeah. I know. C'mon, let's run back and feed my monkeys..." Chris bumped into Darren after they exited the store and intertwined their fingers together.

"I like this." Darren stated suddenly.

"Hm?" Chris glanced over to Darren.

"Us. Together." He smiled and leaned forward to peck Chris on the cheek.

"Ah, just smell the glorious air, look at the clouds! It's so beautiful, Chris! And you know what that means?" Darren grinned widely and tilted his face up to the sky, one hand holding Chris' and the other wrapped around the strap of his guitar case which was perched on his back.

"What does that mean, Darren?" Chris chuckled and moved closer to Darren, closing most of the space in between them.

"It means..." Darren opened his eyes and let go of Chris' hand quickly, reaching back to grab his guitar out of the case. Chris watched with a confused epxression as Darren jumped up on a nearby park bench. They were right in the middle of a beautiful park in Dublin. Flowers were bloomed, kids were running around nearby. It was perfect. "... AWKWARD DARREN DISNEY COVERS!" Darren started strumming his guitar, Chris realized the song almost instantly. I'll Make a Man Out of You.

Darren was only a few words into the song before a group of screaming girls suddenly popped up out of nowhere. Chris laughed and moved from his spot a few feet away from Darren to sitting on the bench beside him.

"Looks like we've got an audience now! Who likes Disney songs?" Darren cheered.

All of the girls (and a few guys) started yelling "I do!" and "I LOVE YOU GUYS"'s before Chris could blink. He noticed a few little kids showing up too. Soon enough, it seemed like everybody in the park was there.

Darren and Chris both chuckled a little before Darren picked up where he left off in the song. A few girls came up and asked Chris to sign things, but it was actually a pretty peaceful little "concert". A bunch of parents were just sitting around with their kids listening to Darren's beautiful voice.

It took all of the strength Chris had to not tackle the boy beside him and crush their lips together. He didn't want any homophobic parents getting angry, so he just sat and swayed along with the music.

After an hour or so, Darren had stripped out of his jacket and was even sweating a little. Chris was a little chilly in his jacket, and was surprised. He played a few more songs including Part of Your World, Belle, Reflection, and When You Wish Upon A Star before wrapping it up.

Darren and Chris then headed over to another side of the park, venturing around. Darren had his guitar slung behind his back and Chris had insisted on carrying the case. They ventured into a small, secluded garden after awhile.

"So," Darren turned his full attention to Chris. "I have a song for you" He grinned and retrieved his guitar from his back, making Chris sit down on a bench.

Come stop your cryin'
and we'll be alright
Just take my hand, hold it tight.
I will protect from all around you,
I will be here don't you cry.
For one so small, you seem so strong.
My arms will hold you keep you safe and warm,
This bond between us cant be broken,
I will be here don't you cry

"Darren," Chris blushed about five shades of red.

'Cos you'll be in my heart,
yes you'll be in my heart,
From this day on now and forever more.

You'll be in my heart,
No matter what they say,
You'll be here in my heart,
Always.

Chris and Darren's gazes never broke from each others eyes as they grinned goofily at each other.

Always
I'll be with you,
I'll be there for you always
Always and always.
Just look over your shoulder
I'll be there always.

Chris watched as Darren finished the song (which he cut short, probably because he couldn't stand it anymore.) and then threw the guitar back behind his back. Chris stood up as Darren almost ran forward, crushing their lips together. They held each other for a good ten minutes before breaking apart.

"We... better get back." Darren grinned and grabbed Chris' hand.

Chris reached his head forward and stole one last kiss before they headed back to the hotel.
