Cash runs from the police.
Cash runs to the school, into the classroom, police sirens blaring and clearly chasing him, and the only thing he does, all he can think about, is telling Darren that he loves them.
Making sure Darren knows, before he goes away for an unknown amount of time.
He doesn't see his Nan, or the people he's grown up around. He doesn't run to his friends or find a place to hide. No, he runs to Darren. To make sure Darren knows.
Cash bursts into the classroom, chest heaving with the exertion of his run. The students and teacher all turn to him, but he's looking at Darren.
"What did you do?"
Darren's not accusatory or hostile. Darren's worried.
Darren doesn’t get a response to their question.
"I love you, Darren. I've loved you since year 8. And the only good thing about coming to this shithole every day is seeing your face."
Darren's gasp.
"Are you serious?"
Cash's soft head nod.
Spider's a dick and Qunnie puts him in his place. Qunnie probably just knows what Darren feels. Knows that Darren loves this 'eshay' that everyone loves to shit on.
Cash expects nothing, he's panicked and scared, and clearly not really thinking straight, and he's just poured his heart out in front of people who he knows could bully him and talk shit, people who have been horrible to him in the past, simply because he loves Darren and he must make sure it's known before it's too late.
"I love you too."
The relief on Cash's face, and the array of emotions on Darren's. They're so scared. And so relieved. They're in disbelief.
The chairs and tables being moved in Cash's mad dash to get to Darren. He cannot get to Darren fast enough.
They throw themselves at each other. Full body launch. Cash, perceived as tough and harsh, holds Darren's head in his hands. He's not gentle with it, he's too frantic and feeling too many emotions to be gentle. But he is determined and needs to remind himself that this is real. He is actually there, in his classroom, in front of the people he's grown up with, suffered with, kissing the person he's been in love with for years.
Darren holds Cash gently, but desperately. It's probably one of the first gentle touches Cash has experienced in a while, and he melts into it.
Cash is frowning. As he kisses the probable love of his life. He knows this won't last. He knows he's going to lose this. He knows the cops are going to ruin it. That Spider will probably be a dick again soon.
The way Cash gasps into the kiss. Like he's finally breathing for the first time. He's so relieved.
Cash is ripped away. Torn from Darren's arms. Pushed onto a desk.
"Oh my God."
Darren is crying for a different reason now.
"It's ok Darren."
Cash is reassuring Darren that everything is ok, despite the fact that he's being arrested right that very moment and he's got his face smushed into a desk.
"I love you. I love you, Darren."

[ID. Digital art of Dean Winchester done in black and white. He’s is laid back on top of an electric bull. One hand rests on his hip while the other hovers in mid-air, fingers slightly curled, and he seems to be looking at it. When clicked, the transparency shows Castiel standing behind him. Castiel is holding Dean’s hand to his lips, while his other hand supports the back of Dean’s head. Castiel has a visible halo and wings that he has curled protectively around Dean. End ID.]
