When Tyler wakes up, he finds that Josh is already awake and on his phone.  He also finds that he's partially laying on top of his friend, who has an arm loosely wrapped around his waist in return, and he blushes; of fucking course he rolled into Josh's personal space in his sleep.  He honestly can't even be surprised because—like he's mentioned before—he tends to gravitate towards warmth.  Or something.  But, Josh doesn't seem to mind at all, so he doesn't berate himself like he usually does.

Josh eventually glances down to the younger boy, the older of the two looking surprised as their eyes meet.

"Good morning, Tyjo," Josh greets, and Tyler smiles in return. "You snore when you sleep, yaknow?"

Tyler blushes again, "Was it bad?"

Josh laughs a little, "No, it was cute."

His blush worsens at that, just as there's a knock at the door.  Zack doesn't bother waiting for any form of response as he immediately pushes the door open, clad in his work clothes, eyebrows raising as he peeks in.

"Gaaaay," Zack sings, and Tyler pulls himself up to grab one of the stuffed animals at the foot of his bed, hurling it straight (ha) at his older brother's head.  Zack catches it and hurls it back, successfully hitting Tyler in the face, who snorts out a laugh.  Josh laughs at his friend as Zack heads out to work.

Tyler waits for Josh to stop laughing before asking, "How long are you staying?"

"Until you kick me out or my parents demand me home," Josh answers, and Tyler smiles at the answer he received; if Josh wasn't gonna stay, he'd be home all alone, and there's two main problems with that—one, he tends to get lonely quickly, and two, he's kinda afraid of being in his house alone because he's a punk ass bitch, as Zack once put it.

"Yay!" Tyler starts softly, and Josh smiles fondly at the younger boy as he continues, "but like, I don't have much fun things."

"What do you usually do when you get home?" Josh asks.

"Computer," Tyler responds simply, reaching under his bed to grab his laptop the best he can with one hand, and sets it down on the mattress.  

"What do you do on it?"

"Uh, I just spend a lot of time on the internet, and I watch, like, Hulu and Netflix on it."

"Let's watch something," Josh suggests.  Tyler nods, scooting back until he's resting against the headboard, and Josh follows suit, sitting close to the younger boy.  Tyler blushes a little as he situates the laptop so that it sits on both of their laps before putting in his password.

"Have you seen Rick and Morty?" Tyler asks.

"No, let's watch that."

Tyler smiles as he starts to pull up Hulu.
