"DIE, SUCKER!" Grantaire yelled, jabbing the buttons on his controller.

"Grantaire?" sighed Enjolras from the doorway.

"Yes?"

"What are you doing?"

"Kicking ass, why do you ask?"

"Could you kick ass a little quieter? I'm trying to work."

"Oh yes, yes. I'm sorry, I'll be quiet now."

"Thank you."

Enjolras retreated to his office and sat down at his desk. As soon as he had reburied himself in his work, Grantaire started yelling again.

"THAT'S RIGHT! DIE, YOU PIECE OF -"

"GRANTAIRE!"

"WHAT?"

"I'M TRYING TO WORK!"

"SORRY!"

There was a silence once more and Enjolras turned back to his work once more.

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? I DIDN'T EVEN GO THERE, WHY DID I DIE?"

Enjolras had had enough. He marched into the living room and stood between Grantaire and the TV.

"'Scuse me, Enjolras, do you mind moving out of the way please."

"Yes, I do mind. I'm trying to work and all I can hear is you yelling at the TV! They can't hear you, Grantaire, they don't exist!"

"You work too hard. Grab the other controller and come sit here." Grantaire patted the sofa next to him.

"Grantaire, I'm really busy."

"Come on, have a bit of fun!"

"Fine."

Enjolras picked up the other controller and sat next to Grantaire.

"How does this work?" Enjolras asked.

"You're holding it upside down for a start."

"Oh." Enjolras blushed and corrected himself. "Like this?"

"Yes, that's it. Now, use this to move, this to turn around and this to shoot. Oh, and this to crouch." Grantaire instructed, pointing to each part accordingly.

"Okay." Enjolras gulped.

"I'm gonna start the game now, okay?"

"Okay. I can do this. I can do this. I can - OH MY GOD WHAT IS HAPPENING!"

"Enjy, I don't think we should play this."

"I DON'T THINK SO EITHER!"

Grantaire started laughing and Enjolras glared at him.

"I don't understand what you find so funny." he hissed.

"You! You're so cute it's..." Grantaire trailed off when he realised what he had said. A moment of silence passed between them. Then Grantaire reached across the sofa and held Enjolras' hand in his.

"Well, now I definitely can't play." Enjolras smiled.

"Enjy, dear, you couldn't have played any better with two hands."

Apologies for the bad language in this one, it just didn't work without it. Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed!
