The One Where They Watched All Night

Note: If you haven't watched Friends (TV Show), I'm afraid you'd be spoiled. I recommend you watch it (of course--it's my favorite TV Show).

Also, Karl and Axel appeared in here. You can read them first in Drabbles: Found. Promoting but oh well. Give it a try!

The One Where They Watched All Night

THAT NIGHT, Karl was chilling inside Axel's room, eating a pack of Pica (Barbeque flavor, because Axel hated the Cheese one). With a laptop in his lap and earphones plugged in both of his ears, he felt too comfortable sitting in Axel's bed that he could fall asleep in the guy's sheets.

Axel stormed inside the room with a frown on his face.

"I said don't play it until I get back!" Axel retorted. "And you even played it with your earphones on! Get it back on loudspeaker!"

When Axel came back from the kitchen, he brought a pitcher of juice (a mixture of strawberry, honey, and apple—his own concoction) and a bowl of cookies. Since it was his apartment, he had his top off and only his boxer shorts as underpants. He still did not shave his face and his hair was messy.

Karl did not mind it, to be honest. Axel offered his shirt and shorts for him, but he refused. He brought his own clothes instead. He was in his sweatpants and his loose t-shirt. Unlike Axel, he kept his face clean.

In front of them was the fan and a monobloc chair. Karl begrudgingly placed the laptop in the chair and connected the speaker.

"It's not your laptop," Karl protested.

"And it's not your apartment. Get out or we play it this way."

"We could enjoy in more in my way," he growled.

"Well, your way sucks. And our eyes would deteriorate if we looked at the screen too near!"

"Blah-blah-blah. But when it comes on your phone and you're watching porn..."

"Oh yeah? Wanna watch that instead of Friends?"

"I think I'm gonna pass."

Karl scooped a mouthful of chips and munched it to keep his mouth busy.

Axel pressed Play.

Season 5, Episode 1 – The One After Ross Says Rachel

"What if Ross actually said the right name at the wedding?" Axel asked.

The bowl of cookies and the pack of Pica rested in between of the boys' legs. The pitcher and the glasses sat in the bedside table in Karl's left. Only the actors' voices and the fan's noise could be heard in the room.

Karl got a glass and filled it with juice. He drank before answering Axel's question.

"You know I totally ship Ross-Rachel," Karl said, "and that I hate Ross."

"Everyone hates Ross."

"Except Mina."

"Mina doesn't know Friends like we do," Axel complained. "Like she's just joining the bandwagon. And all you can talk is Mina, Mina, Mina—seriously, ask her out."

"Nah, she's probably taken." Karl could've added the phrase in his List of Excuses Why He Won't Go Out with Mina Because He's Not into Mina. "Besides, I got you."

That one is true, Karl added in his mind.

"Well if you don't, then I will."

Axel smirked. Karl rolled his eyes and focused on the episode.
