"Next station is Flensburg", the PA wakes you up with, in German and English. "This is the last station in Germany before the Danish border. Have your documents and negative test results ready if you shall continue your journey onwards."
Your blurry eyes have barely focused, but you see your seatmate fiddling with something in their huge bag. You then see they're a guy, who pulls out two wine-red passports, with some paper folded in each of them. "...camping?" You think faintly, seeing the colourful ropes and hooks and loops hanging off the bag.
One of those passports is definitely yours. You recognise the wear on it.
Even though the pandemic is de-facto over, you shouldn't be travelling now. You made no plans. Have you told your friends and family about this trip? Why Schleswig of all places? Where's your own stuff? The man next to you bends down and grabs a backpack, opens a zipper, and places your passport into it, closing it afterwards. You read your name on the tag which hangs off the zipper tug.
Still dazed and sluggish, you look up to your left, and see the late summer sunset through the window in the background. Much closer to you, you see the face of the guy who you now recall made the past week quite memorable. Oh yes! Him.
"Oh hey, good evening to you, sleepyhead." He greets you. "We're barely halfway, just so you know. Just lay back, I'll take care of the necessities."
You don't even know his name, other than what his online username is. Ah, fortunately, it was not some xXKeyBoardSmash69Xx he wanted to be called by, but it still makes you curious of what his actual name could be.
