Roommates (Joey & Paul Special Story)

Narrators POV

On this long and hard tour we find our two main characters of the story having a sleepless night. Joey, the restless one and Paul, the one who has to listen to Joey.
"Ok but that's such a weird thought that you could throw a stone in the pond and be like the last one to touch it." Joey said.
"Joey it's 3 am." Paul grumbled.
Joey rolled over and turned on the lamp sitting on the nightstand between the two beds. Paul groaned and placed a pillow on his face.
"I can't sleep theres so much going on in my mind. Joey said while pointing at his head.
"Oh really?" Paul asked sarcastically." I couldn't tell."
"Yeah and also you notice how animals just straight up chill. They don't have to worry about school or paying bills. Like can you imagine that kind of life." Joey rambled on.
"Listen dude that's some cool thoughts and stuff but if we don't get any sleep and we're too tired to practice Shawn will kick our asses." Paul replied." Let's try and get some sleep.
"Ok." Joey said.
Paul turned off the lamp and the room was plunged into darkness again. Paul, happy to finally have some quiet pulled the covers over him and closed his eyes. Joey laid in the dark with his eyes wide open. He started at the ceiling restless. Joeys brain seemed to be working at a million miles per hour.
"Dude why have I never seen a baby pigeon. That's so weird." Joey said.
"Joey." Paul said tiredly." Please just go to bed."
"I'm sorry." Joey apologized.
A few minutes of silence passed. They were a few minutes of pure bliss for Paul. Joey sat up and looked at his friend sleeping.
"Ok but I don't understand why cats always land on their feet." Joey said.
"Jesus." Paul mumbled.
Joey reached over and turned on the lamp.
"Cats are so amazing because they're so flexible and they can bend their backs like crazy." Joey said excitedly.
Paul was debating walking out of the room to crash at somebody else's or just shouldering the pain. He ended up throwing a pillow at Joey. It hit him in the face but Joey didn't even flinch.
"Are you really that tired?" Joey asked Paul.
"It's 3 in the morning what do you think?" Paul asked in return.
"Do you wanna hear about my theory about how the birds work for the government?" Joey asked.
"Joey I swear to god I'll put tape over your mouth." Paul threatened." We need to sleep."
"Yeah but also I wanna talk about how I personally think Dynasty is a really good record." Joey replied.
Paul mumbled some choice words under his breath.
"Fine I give up tell me." Paul said defeated.
For the rest of the night Joey went into depth about the album Dynasty by Kiss is a great album. The next day at practice both were very tired. Of course Shawn kicked both of their asses.

A/N: hey it's been awhile, I'm still like grieving a little bit and writing this is just kind of nice. I like to think Paul and Joey are hanging out like the good ol' days. I don't know what I'm going to do going forwards with stories. I might include Joey and even Paul but I don't know. Well stay sic!
