FORTY EIGHT— ( OUTER BANKS ! )

"FIVE MINUTES!" The voice of Madelyn had shouted from Sydney's living room where she had been sitting on the sofa with Drew. Sydney, Chase and Rudy had been in the kitchen grabbing everyone drinks and snacks.

Outer Banks had just been released on Netflix and Madelyn wasn't going to let any of them sleep till they had watched it.

"Alright, alright!" Sydney had called back to her friend, grabbing as much as she could with her hands before walking into the living room with Tank following closely behind her.

"We're coming." Chase had then added as he followed after Sydney and her dog.

Madelyn had already set up Netflix on Sydney's television and was ready to play the first episode of the show as soon as everyone had sat down. "Do we really have to watch the whole thing in one go?" Sydney had asked as she sat down beside Drew, Tank immediately jumping up on the sofa beside her and lying across Sydney's lap.

"Yes." Madelyn was quick to answer.

"What if I fall asleep?" Sydney asked, looking at Madelyn who had been taking a sip of her drink that Rudy had handed her before he'd sat down the other side of Sydney, where Tank was curled up. Half of her body lying across Sydney's lap and half across the sofa.

"Then I'll wake you up." Madelyn replied, looking back at Sydney. She didn't appreciate the lack of enthusiasm from her friend. But Sydney was excited, just as excited as everyone else. She just enjoyed teasing Madelyn.

"What if you fall asleep too?"

Madelyn had rolled her eyes. "Then you can wake me up." She told Sydney, who was holding back a smirk.

"No." Sydney retorted, keeping a straight face, but with a struggle.

"Okay, can we at least watch like the first 3 or something?" All Madelyn had wanted to do was binge watch the whole season. She was way too excited but the others were also tired. Although they were stuck inside with nothing to do, they still felt exhausted for most of the day, everyday.

"It's not like we don't know what happens."

"True."

"You are so miserable." Madelyn told Sydney, shaking her head and laughing.

Sydney couldn't keep a straight face any longer, cracking a smile and rolling her eyes. "You know I'm kidding." Sydney told Madelyn as she reached forward to grab her drink from the coffee table. "We can watch as many as we can stay awake for." And that was what they did.

The five adults watched the first four episodes of the show before they all started to fall asleep one by one. Madelyn had fallen asleep first and the group had turned the episode off as soon as they noticed the blonde girls eyes closed.

But when they had all been awake, the excitement had been bubbling inside them all, so much so that they couldn't keep quiet when the first episode had begun to play. All shouting over each other in excitement but luckily, the subtitles had been turned on so they didn't miss a thing. 

Sydney couldn't lie, she didn't enjoy watching herself in anything she was in. And it was even worse when she was watching herself in something that her ex-boyfriend was also in, even more so when they were kissing. It was quite awkward when scenes with Sydney and Rudy played but Sydney managed to play off the awkwardness with laughter.
