The Video

Sorry chapters are far apart and random. This is sort of my side project. I was thinking of this when I saw Dan's Irreverence video from 2008 and I was thinking about how Dan probably wants to burn this video to the ground.

No POV:

"BAAAAAAABEEEEE. WAKE UUUUUUUUUUP!" Kyle calls, shaking Dan.

"No! Stop!" Dan says groggily, burying himself further into the sheets.

"You need to get up, Danny!" Kyle says sweetly.

"But the bed is so WARM!" Dan complains like a six year old.

"Would you say it's peaceful?" Kyle says, grinning. He has an evil idea.

"Yes... up until you came in to wake me up!" Dan pulls his pillow over his head.

"It would be a shame..." Kyle starts smugly.

"Kyle-" Dan starts.

"If..."

"Please stop, Ky."

"I were to play..." Kyle pulls out his phone.

"SHIT!" Dan yells.

"THE VIDEO." Kyle yells tauntingly.

"PLEASE DON'T!" Dan buries his head deeper into the blankets.

"Hi my name is Dan Smith and... this is Irreverence." Dan from 2008 says.

"I'M UP! I'M UP! I'M UP!" Dan yells, frantically squirming out of bed.

Kyle laughs loudly, playing the song louder and holding his phone out of Dan's reach.

"These chords make her so happy, especially when he plays them that way!"

"I'M UP! TURN IT OFF!" Dan yells, jumping to grab Kyle's phone.

"NO WAY! THIS IS MY JAM, BITCH!" Kyle says, protecting his phone.

"IF ANYTHING, YOU'RE THE BITCH!" Dan yells back, still trying to grab Kyle's phone.

Without warning, Kyle leaps onto Dan, knocking the pair back onto the bed. Kyle's phone flies onto the floor, but Irreverence still plays.

"Gotcha!" Kyle says, pinning Dan to the bed. 

"Do we really have to do this?" Dan asks. "You're being a man-child."

"I know." Kyle says, careful to not talk loud enough to drown out the music. "I thought you liked it."

"I do, you little shit." Dan mutters. 

"Fucking knew it!" Kyle exclaims with 2008 Dan playing kazoo in the background.

"Please" Dan looks Kyle dead in the eye. "Turn that off."

"But you were so good, back then!" Kyle laughs. "Where did it go?"

"Up your ass, Simmons." Dan snaps.

"That was actually the worst comeback you've ever..." Kyle rolls his eyes. "Just please never say that to anyone... please ever again."

"I will never say that again," Dan says like a poorly disciplined 2nd Grader. "If you get off me."

Kyle rolls off of Dan, but remains laid on the bed next to him. 

"Thank you." Dan says, less annoyed. The song playing in the background stops.

There is a long silence, and the two lock eyes. It creates a desirable tension between them. 

"You smell good." Kyle says after a while.

"Um... thanks I guess?" Dan laughs. "Why were you trying to wake me up earlier?"

"I dunno..." Kyle admits. "I just wanted to see you."

"That's not creepy at all." Dan remarks sarcastically.

Kyle lets out a purposely evil laugh. "I like it when you sleep, for you are so beautiful, yet so unaware of it." 

"Alright," Dan starts. "Maybe you should cut down on the 1975."

"You're the one who told me to listen to them!" Kyle protests.

"Valid point." Dan replies.

Kyle reaches out and messes up Dan's hair.

"Oh thanks!" Dan begins sarcastically. "I was going for this look!" Dan poses like a model laying on his side with a hand on his hip.

Short and crappy, but I like it...
