This Is Spinal Tap - Something To Cling To (U)
Nigel rested his head against the window of the tourbus, sighing heavily. The action didn't go unnoticed to the blond, who was sat at a chair nearby.
"Hey," David quietly began. "What's up?"
Nigel shrugged. "Nothing. I don't know. Everything."
David raised an eyebrow.
"I'm just sick of this. I miss home."
The blond walked over to the row of window seats, sitting down next to the brunette. "We'll be home soon enough. Two more weeks, that's all. We've nearly finished, we're nearer to home every night now."
"Yeah," Nigel agreed, raising his head to look at David. "I need some normality right now though, I dunno what's happening from one day to the next. I need something to hang on to."
"Well, then," David replied, lightly resting his palm on Nigel's wrist. "Hang on to me."
Nigel's smile as he turned his wrist to take hold of his hand, was the first genuine one David had seen from him in weeks.

It's a gift life often brings you when you thought all hope long gone
Sometimes a single dream to cling to gives you strength to carry on
All I need, all you need, all we need, is something to cling to
