Chapter "Boy's Night Out"

After the festival, the group made their way back to their rented house, Hamlyn sat quietly in the car. He glanced to his right, where Sheryl slept soundly, her head gently resting on his shoulder. A warm smile graced Hamlyn’s lips as he watched her serene, peaceful slumber.

Noticing a few stray strands of her hair resting on her face, he gently brushed them aside with the tips of his fingers. Gently, he placed his hand on her cheek feeling the warmth of her skin beneath his touch, and smiled affectionately at the sight of her tranquillity.

Turning his gaze back infront, Hamlyn's expression shifted to one of disappointment as he looked to his left and saw Fredy's peculiar sleeping posture with his head slumped against Hamlyn's left shoulder.

With a slight grimace, Hamlyn turned his attention to Hamond, who was driving the car. "Hamond, I hope you're not too exhausted?" he asked.

"None at all, I'm good. We're nearly back," Hamond reassured.
