Never quite the same...

"Who?" Heath asked again, a little more curious after the answer he had been given.

"Well I probably wouldn't actually call him a friend," Justin said, shrugging his shoulders. "It's that Skip guy."

"Sheffield?" Heath asked, wrinkling up his nose. "Ew he's a creeper!"

"All the more reason to send him away from here." Justin said, laughing. "It was an excuse to get rid of him for a while."

Heath chuckled, "Yeah, I guess you could see it that way."

"Any excuse to get rid of him is good." Justin said, shrugging his shoulders.

Heath chuckled and hugged him as the puppy yipped.

Justin grinned and wrapped his arms back around Heath's neck as he hugged him back. "Ek is lief vir jou..." He said quietly.

"I don't remember what that means," Heath frowned, hanging his head.

Justin chuckled and shook his head at Heath. "It means I love you..." He said quietly.

Heath smiled and nodded, the words sounding wierd on his tongue. "Eek is leave vir jou too!"

Justin couldn't help but laugh at Heath's attempt at the language, shaking his head before kissing the ginger's cheek. "You should probably just stick to saying it in English..."

Heath chuckled and nodded, "I just tried for you/"

"Well it's better than other people's attempts at least." Justin smiled. "You should hear some of the tourists that try speak it down there..."

"Is it that terrible?" Heath laughed as he lounged on the grass.

"Yeah, some of them are pretty terrible." Justin chuckled, reaching out to pet the puppy again. "Yours wasn't too bad."

"So many years listening to you," Heath laughed..

"I don't speak it that often though, besides a few words here and there." Justin said. "At home we'd speak it more than we would English sometimes." He added, sighing quietly as he layed down, closing his eyes as he relaxed.

"You miss your hom?" Heath asked as he rolled onto his side to look at Justin.

"Of course I do. Doesn't everyone at times?" Justin answered, his eyes still closed as he spoke. "I haven't been there for a while though."

"We could go," shrugged Heath nonchalantly, "Wade doesn't even have to know. We can keep it as our lttle secret."

Justin opened his eyes, turning to look at him. "How exactly would we keep something like that a secret? It's not like he wouldn't notice we're gone..."

"He didn't care that IS was gone..."

Justin went to say something, but stopped himself, changing his mind. "True..." He said slowly instead. "But it might be different if more than one of us were gone, he wouldn't be able to do much for work..."

"You don't want to..." Heath softly said.
