[So Elijah follows the GPS ping, Ronan probably able to hear the purr of his car as his tires skid into the gravel drive.
But when he gets out of his car and looks around, he's badly affected even if he tries to hide it. He wants to choke it down into his chest where he lets the homesick ache live. But he flounders a little, unsteady, like he's not sure if what he's looking at is real or not.

It's not the smell off the Texas fields, not the stables where he'd sit while his sister groomed her horse after training, or the barn that his mother turned into a greenhouse. The pool where his brother hosted college parties over the summer. It's not the mansion with cows grazing just off the patio deck. But it's... He doesn't know.
There's something about how the sun sets beyond the trees and how bright the colors of the sky are off the barns that dot the green grass. He looks at Ronan, unsteady and smiling.
But he holds out the bottle of vodka that he hadn't opened yet.]
