[He can't see. Oh God, he can't see. There's nothing but blackness - not even inky blackness like the night sky, just complete suffocation and dear lord almighty Baby can't see.]

Help, somebody, please... [Baby choked out the words, about two seconds away from a full on panic attack.]

[so_far_fallen]

Aria helped him to sit and guided his hand to one of the poles with the 'stop' bell on so he could hold onto something if he needed to steady himself.
"You'll be alright. I promise."

[1967_chevy]

"I trust you," Baby hoped he wasn't making a mistake, but as Aria guided his hand to a pole to hold onto, Baby felt better about the situation. He was giving him some measure of control, and Baby appreciated it.

[so_far_fallen]

Aria hummed to himself as the bus continued on through the streets.
"So, you're staying with a friend of yours?"

[1967_chevy]

"We're staying at a motel on the edge of town," Baby could hear all sorts of noises he hadn't noticed before now that he was listening. "Sam and Dean are..."

He didn't really know what they were. They were his boys, but Baby didn't think that was appropriate to say aloud. "Brothers. I'm traveling with them."

[so_far_fallen]

"Oh I see," Aria replied. "Well it's nice you have people looking after you. You'll have to remind me of the street again, I think we're getting close and I don't want to miss the stop."

[1967_chevy]

"Fairview." Baby responded quietly, fingers flexing against the emergency pole Aria had guided him to. "I really can't thank you enough, Aria..."

[so_far_fallen]

"Anyone else would have done the same thing," Aria replied modestly. He saw the road sign for Fairview and pressed the 'stop' bell. "We're here."

[1967_chevy]

"No they wouldn't," Baby mumbled softly, mostly to himself. He'd seen a lot of the cold side of human nature, and he was pretty sure most people would have thought him raving mad and continued on without a second thought.

Baby's grip on the pole tightened as the bus halted, feeling the jolt of the brakes more distinctly now that he was relying on his other senses more.

[so_far_fallen]

Aria helped Baby off of the bus, thanked the driver, and then guided him slowly to the motel, which was not too far from the bus stop.
"What room are you in? I can take you up."

[1967_chevy]

"I...I'm not sure. I think it might be 306..." Baby gripped Aria securely, shaking the slightest bit. He still didn't know what could have done this, and how the hell he'd ended up so far away from the motel.

[so_far_fallen]

Aria got a better grip on Baby's hand and led him to the right room. He knocked on the door sharply.
"Hello?"

[1967_chevy]

Nobody answered Aria from the other side, and Baby squeezed his hand reassuringly. They waited for a second before Baby realized something. "If this is the right room, they might not be in...Sam and Dean would probably be out looking for me."

[so_far_fallen]

"You don't have a key?" Aria asked.

[1967_chevy]

"...No." Baby stuck a hand into his pocket, rummaging for a second. "I'm usually with one of the boys..."

"I can pick it though," Baby procured a small lock-pick. "You'll have to guide my hand to the lock though..."

[so_far_fallen]

Aria took his wrist and gently guided it to the keyhole. "Here. Why do you have a lock pick in your pocket?"
