Rain pattered down from the sky and onto the windows of the small living room. It was a late night of chatting and playing Roblox. The faces of the two dudes only lit up by their computer screens. The one in glasses, Schlep. Rolled out of his chair, and turned to face his friend Ruben.
"Ben, it's like one in the morning." he said, a hint of concern was in his voice. His friend was always absorbed by feuds and flame wars on the internet. He knew he meant well, but it always worried hi when Ruben would push his luck and say something obviously said only to fuel the rages of the masses on Twitter.
"Hold on, hold on..." Ruben muttered, his eyes were wide open from constant cramming and other sleep killing activities. This was nothing new, and Michael didn't pretend like it was. He let out an annoyed sigh.
"Ben, look at me." Schlep said, and in response. Ruben finally turned around from his seat. Schlep took the other guy's hand and pulled him up. With an awkward chuckle coming out of Ruben.
"What the fuck, dude.... don't do that" Ben awkwardly stated. Schlep dragged him off to his bed, both landing by gravity's force.
"Michael, stop. This is gay as shit. I'm not gay." Ben argued, only getting wrapped in Schlep's arms. "Dude-"
Schlep bonked Ruben on the head lightly. "Shut up, Ben."
"What are you, some kind of faggot?" Ben uttered
"No, just a half-decent friend." Schlep replied, lightly squeezing Ruben in his arms.
"...whatever man. just go to bed."
"alright, good night, Ben."
".....night, michael."
wow... they cuddle and sleep together (platonically ofc no homo)
