'You can't just sit there all day.' You needed a new chair for the apartment, well, not really needed, more like wanted. The living room didn't feel very home-y and you decided you would go to get some more furniture and decorations to make the place look better. The two of you found a very nice chair, really big and soft and it fit in almost perfectly to everything else you already got. It was a really big black chair with the softest seat, nice arm rests and you could even get a matching leg rest. So now, ever since you got it a day ago, Brandon has been stuck to it. How he first was glued to the couch, since it was the only acceptable thing to sit on for a longer time, it has now been switched for the chair. And since he also hasn't been feeling too well, most likely getting sick again, there is nothing for you to do to get him out of there. You couldn't even bribe him by asking if he wanted to get some take out that you'd pay for, nothing seems to convince him enough to get out of the chair.

'I need coffee,' Brandon whines, curling up into the chair even more. It looked quite uncomfortable, the way he was sitting, because he is too tall to fit properly. 'Then get up and get it. And while you're in the kitchen get yourself some lunch, because it's late and you haven't eaten yet,' you reply, not looking up from your phone. You're sat on the couch opposite of him, busy on your phone . You've spend too much time with Brandon today, and you needed some chill time. since you wouldn't be able to get him out of the chair anyway, you've given up on that. 'Like... I'd kill for a coffee right now, literally,' Brandon says ago, looking to you hopefully. He lets out a whine again when he realises you're not paying attention to him. 'Please don't.' you say, 'you already cause enough chaos. I don't need to deal with you facing jail time, thank you.' Brandon makes a pouty face at you when you do make eye contact. 'I hope you would still visit me there.' 'No, I won't. I think I will be very happy when I finally get some peace and quiet away from you.' You hear Brandon gasp, 'You don't mean that!' 'Maybe I do, who knows,' you say as you make your way out of the room and to the kitchen. 

'Are you gonna bring me my coffee?' he yells, still sitting in his chair and not moving an inch. You consider not replying but then yell back 'Nope. Not until you finish that bottle of water.' He looks down to the bottle standing on the little table next to him. 'Boyfriend neglect is what that is called,' he yells and you faintly hear it. You laugh, knowing the chances of him finishing that bottle before getting coffee are very low. You get yourself a cup of tea and some left over snacks from yesterday. You wanted to finish a series you were watching so you needed something to eat during. 

With your glass and bowl of snacks in your hands you walk back to the living room. To your surprise Brandon has actually moved. Either to get more comfortable or to start on the water bottle, you were hoping for the latter. 'You didn't get me snacks or a drink?' Brandon asks as he looks at what you placed down on the table. You reply with a simple 'nope', making a popping sound on the p. 'Oh, come on, why not?' 'Because. And if you would ask for something it's gonna be coffee and snacks we currently don't have, and I'm not going to the store for your lazy ass,' you retort. 'I'm hurt.' he leans his head back on the chair and lets out a deep sigh. 'Don't be such a drama queen, come watch this series with me. We've almost finished it.' 'I will watch but I will get coffee after this episode.'

Brandon stretches his arms up and breathes out deeply before looking over at you. You're taking a short break between episodes to figure out what to get for dinner. 'I know this is going to sound crazy,' Brandon starts but you cut him off, 'Most things you have said today are. No, scratch that, most things you say everyday are.' 'Wow, what is with you today, all your witty comments?' You laugh, 'fuck you.' Brandon raises his eyebrows at you. 'You know what, maybe later. For now let me finish what I was saying,' You nod your head as a sign for him to continue. 'Before I got so rudely interrupted by my wonderful girlfriend -' 'Wow I can almost taste the sarcasm in that...' you say to which Brandon roles his eyes again. 'You know, this would go a lot faster if you didn't interrupt me every few words. What I was saying was, cray idea: let's order take out again tonight!' 'That really is a crazy idea, since it is your turn to cook dinner and you want to evade it by getting take out... Again.' Brandon sits up straight in the chair. 'It is a good idea though, because it will taste a lot better than whatever I manage to burn while cooking,' he says, hoping to convince you. 

'Well, I am ok with that, as long as you do one thing,' you reply 'we walk there to pick it up and not get it delivered.' Brandon groans and dramatically falls back into his chair. 'Nooo! I wanna stay in this chair and never leave!' 'Too bad that's not happening then. You could either go with me on a walk to get dinner or I am going out by myself,' you state. 'And leave your wonderful, sexy, hot, boyfriend at home? How could you do that to me?!' You roll your eyes and laugh at his dramatics. 'You say something about me but you are also in one hell of a drama queen mood, B.' 'Shut up. Can we at least go to that place like five minutes away from here then? You like the food there!' Brandon tries to persuade you, and you know he just wants to go there because it is close by. 'First of all, that place is shit. the last time we ordered food we got the wrong thing and it was also cold, and second this middle aged dude tried to hit on me so I sure as hell am not going back to that place.'

'Where do you want to go then?' he asks, hoping the hear a name of a place close by, but unfortunately for him you say 'It's nice weather, we can go for that Chinese place that's like 15 minutes away.' Brandon doesn't even reply this time, he just stares at you with an annoyed expression. 'So, get your shoes on and lets go!' you say and jump up from the couch, laughing. 'I am not walking 15 minutes to get dinner, oh my god, what do you take me for?' he replies. 'I take you for a very nice boyfriend who is going to pay for my dinner. And if you're not willing I'm sure I can find another guy to pay for it' you try, knowing it would annoy Brandon. 'No one is buying you shit, except me, of course.' He gets up from the couch with a loud breath. 

You smile to yourself, happy you finally managed to get him off of the chair and on a walk with you. You actually like walking around outside sometimes, especially because you live in a neighbourhood with quite nice nature around it. Brandon on the other hand, does not like it that much. He doesn't like being outside too much and he hates walking just to walk. If he could choose he would take the car everywhere, even if sometime was close by. 'It will be good for you to go outside again, for the first time in, what? A week, maybe?' you say, smiling 'Get some vitamins in you.' Brandon smirks, 'Would you like some vitamin D then?' You hit his shoulder, rolling your eyes as you walk away from him. You hear him laugh behind you, 'Come on, that one was pretty smooth.' 'Wouldn't expect anything less NSFW from you, B.'

You put on your shoes and get a coat from one of the hangers. 'Here you go,' you say as you hold up his coat. 'Oh, a wallet,' you mumble as you take a step towards the living room. But before you can take another step Brandon grabs your shoulder and stops you from leaving. 'I'm paying, remember? Now come on, I don't want to wait much longer on my dinner'
