"I'm exhausted." Tim mumbles as he knocks on the door to the Rays' house.

"Well, maybe you should have gotten some sleep instead of screwing." Austin chuckles.

"We're weren't screwing." Adam says.

"Oh, really? Then what were you doing?" Austin says as he crosses his arms over his chest. "If you weren't screwing then why is Timmy walking like that?"

"We were making love." Adam answers.

"Same thing." Austin laughs.

"No. It's not the same thing." Tim says. "But the bottom line is, it's really none of your business what we do in the privacy of our own room. Whether we're f*cking or making love."

"Excuse me?" A lady's voice interrupts.

Tim's jaw drops as the others begin to laugh.

"Oh, Sh*t! I mean, Oh, my God, Mam. I am so sorry." Tim says as his face turns bright red.

"That's quite alright." The lady laughs. "I guess I wasn't supposed to hear that conversation. Can I help you?"

"Uh, yes. Is Chance here?" Tim asks.

"He's resting. Who may I tell him is here?" The lady asks politely.

"I'm Tim. Hopefully, he'll remember me." Tim says.

"Tim? Oh, yes, he's only mentioned you a few hundred times. I thought he was just....." The lady stops.

"Hallucinating?" Adam says with a smile.

"Yeah, kinda. I mean, at first, it all just seemed too crazy. But the more he talked about Dead Town, I started to believe him. " The lady smiles. "I'm Kristi, Chance's mom. Please come in."

"Pleased to meet you. How's he doing? Is he alright?" Tim asks.

"He suffered some pretty bad burns on his back and some on his legs. But they said that he was going to be fine." Kristy answers. "The doctors did an amazing job. He's going to have very little scarring."

"That's great to hear." Tim says as they walk into the living room.

"Have a seat, I'll go tell him the visitors he's been expecting is here." Kristi says as she turns and heads down the hall.

"I wonder what she meant by that?" Jenika asks.

"He's been expecting us?" Austin responds with a questionable expression.

Everyone sits down except for Tim.

"Aren't you going to sit down?" Adam asks quietly.

"No, I'm fine." Tim says, shaking his head.

"What's wrong, Timmy? Adam get a little rough?" Austin says with a smirk.

"None of your d*mn business." Tim growls.

"We were so used to making love without any prep in Dead Town that we kinda forgot that we actually had bodies now and didn't prep." Adam answers.

"Holy cow! That had to hurt." Nate says.

"Well, that was a little too much information but now you know the reason why I'm standing." Tim chuckles.

"It's about time you guys showed up." Chance says as he walks into the room carrying his suitcases. He sets them down and grabs Tim into a hug. "God, I've missed you guys."

Tim looks at the others over Chance's shoulder, they all looked as confused as he was.

"You...You knew we were coming?" Tim asks as he and Chance pull apart from the hug.

"Well, not exactly. But what I experienced while I was in my coma was too real to be just a dream. I knew Tim well enough to know that he'd come searching for everyone." Chance says as he turns to hug the others. "Sami is waiting on us."

"Sami? You found her? How?" Austin asks.

"When we started our relationship in Dead Town, she told me a little about herself. Her last name and that she was a photographer in Los Angeles. So, I did a little research and found her. We've talked several times." Chance says with a smile. "I have her address."

"You're awesome, Chance. I just wish everyone had found out more about their lovers, we wouldn't be having this much problem finding everyone." Tim says as he glances around at Austin, Nate and Jenika.

"That's not all. I have some good news and some bad news." Chance adds.

"Okay? Good news first." Tim replies.

"Good news is, she found Olena. Turns out, Olena came into the photography agency that Sami works for wanting to book a photographer for a friend's wedding." Chance says.

"That's amazing!" Adam smiles.

"But are they willing to come with us?" Tim asks.

"Yep, they're both fed up and bored with the lives they have." Chance nods. "Olena is missing a certain someone." He smiles as he winks at Austin.

"Okay, what's the bad news?" Nate asks.

"Well, we know that Sami and Darrell are friends. They were at the nightclub with other friends. Sadly, Darrell wants nothing to do with us. He wants his old life back." Chance answers.

"F*ck him. We don't need him. Yeah, he was cute but he wasn't that great in bed anyway." Jenika says.

"Geez." Tim chuckles at the blonde beauty and shakes his head.

"So what are your plans once you find everyone?" Kristi asks.

"We'd like to find somewhere that we can all be together." Tim answers. "Mrs. Ray, I know it's hard to understand. I know that we were only in a coma from anywhere from a few days to a few weeks but in Dead Town, we were together for years. We became a family."

"Believe it or not, I do understand. Chance has told me so much about the place and each one of you. Just, please, keep in touch and let me know where you guys end up." Kristi says as she takes her son by the hand. "But before you guys run off with my kid, how about something to eat? I was just fixing dinner."

"How can we say no." Tim smiles. "It does smell pretty awesome in here."

Jenika went to the kitchen to help her finish dinner as the guys sat around in the living room getting Chance caught up on their adventure so far.

"I think that once we get to California, we need to separate." Tim says as he takes a sip of the beer that Chance had gotten him.

"Separate? Why?" Adam asks.

"Well, we could cover more ground if we went in different directions. I'm thinking that Chance and Austin can go to Los Angeles to get Sami and Olena. Jenika and Nate can head to Visalia to find Avi and you and I can head to Colorado to find Chris." Tim answers.

"I agree." Austin nods. "At this rate, it's taking forever."

"What information do you have on Avi?" Nate asks as he pulls out his phone to take notes.

Tim closes his eyes and hangs his head as if he had gone into meditation.

"Kaplan is his last name." Tim speaks after about a minute. " Avi is short for Avriel, I believe."

"Okay, got it." Nate says as he slips his phone back into his pocket.

"We could just hop on a plane in Mobile and fly to Los Angeles. That would be a whole lot faster than driving across country." Chance suggests.

"That's true." Tim nods. "Then we can just rent vehicles once we get there. I mean, we're not even sure that Avi and Chris will want to join us. But once we get everyone that's coming, we can meet back in Los Angeles and go from there."

"Sounds like a plan." Austin agrees.

"DINNER IS READY!" Kristi calls from the kitchen.

~~

Hours later, their plane lands at the L.A. International Airport.

"Alright guys, this is it." Tim says as they walk toward the Hertz Car Rental.

"Just look at all these gorgeous guys." A female speaks up behind them causing them to stop turn around.

"Uh, excuse me?" Jenika giggles as she sees Sami and Olena walking toward them.

"Oh, sorry. And one okay girl, I guess." Olena laughs.

"Care if we tag along?" Sami smiles as she embraces Chance in a loving hug.

"Hey, cutie." Olena says as she walks up to Austin before kissing him passionately.

"Okay? Change of plans." Tim chuckles as he takes his turn hugging the two girls.

They rent two cars. Jenika, Nate, Austin and Olena head out to Visalia, California. Tim, Adam, Chance and Sami head out on their long trip to Boulder, Colorado.
