| 50-50 Author�s note: Remember how I like to use only dialogue sometimes? During a story, I sometimes suddenly switch to only dialogue � like in Adventure Of The Ass. I wanted to try something different and I was pretty pleased with the result. So I�m trying out this story � an idea I had from long ago � and I�m going to write it in total dialogue. It�s funny, hopefully, rather than all the other sappy stories I write. Hope ya like it! �Ouch! Josh, stop poking me!� ��� �Ow! Stop it!� ��� �Hey, okay, okay! Stop! No, no� Josh! No tickling� JOSH!� ��� �Ha! I got you to move!� �Oh, hardy-har-har. Really funny, Joshua Scott. You couldn�t just ASK me to move, like any other regular guy?� �I�m not any other regular guy. I�m Joshua Scott Chasez and you, my dear Lance, were on MY side of the bed.� �Since when did we split the bed?� �Since I decided I didn�t want your hair tickling my face when I try to sleep at night.� �� and when was that?� �Uh� just?� �It�s two *freaking* A.M, Josh. And I was half-asleep. You couldn�t just PUSH me or something?� �I didn�t wanna wake you.� �Oh right, Mr. Chasez. And you cleverly decided that poking me and TICKLING me wouldn�t wake me up, hmm?� �� Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time.� �I swear, if we didn�t need you in the band, I�d kick your scrawny ass.� �Sorry.� �You sound sorry.� �I am.� �You should be.� �Well I am.� �Good. I�m going to bed� night, Josh.� ��� �What are you doing NOW, Josh?� �I thought since we can�t draw a line down the middle of the bed, we could put this bolster here instead.� �Oh GOD. Save me. WHY, Josh, WHY are you torturing me like this?� �Like what?� �Oh, don�t act all innocent with me. I�m trying to SLEEP and YOU are rearranging the BED!� �Oh. Sorry.� �Are you happy with the sleeping arrangement now, Mr. I-can�t-sleep-with-hair-in-my-face?� �Um� yeah.� �Good. Now SLEEP.� ��� �Lance�?� �WHAT Josh?!� �Are you mad?� �Mad about what, Joshua?� �Mad at me?� �No, I�m not mad, Josh. I�m just fine and dandy. I�ve been woken up THREE times by you in the span of half an hour. It�s pretty obvious I�m not gonna get a good night�s sleep but nooooo� no, I�m not pissed at you at all, no siree.� �So you are mad� I�m sorry.� �Don�t be, Josh. Just� stop waking me up. Please.� �Kay�� ��� �JC! Now the frickin� PILLOWS?� �Um� yeah.� �Oh. My. God. I am absolutely going to scream. Jace, please, do me a favour. Continue this insanity tomorrow night when we�re not drained from a concert and when I can switch rooms with someone else!� �You�re not gonna sleep with me tomorrow?� �We�re not SLEEPING together. And no, I am NOT going to share a room with you tomorrow. You�re driving me up the wall.� ��Sorry.� �I�m not even gonna tell you it�s okay because I can assure you, JC, it�s not.� �You called me JC... You�re really pissed, aren�t you?� �If I woke you up four times in a row for completely insane reasons, wouldn�t you be feeling as happy as I am?� �Sorry.� �Josh, just stop, okay? Sleep.� �Kay.� ��� �You called me Josh... You�re not mad any more?� �JC CHASEZ! I am FREAKING furious! OKAY? God, quit waking me up like that! Just SHUT UP!� ��sor-� �Don�t even tell me you�re sorry. Let me sleep. PLEASE.� ��� �AHHHHHHHHH! Now the blanket! WHAT next?!� �Lance, where�re you going?� �Chris! Christopher Kirkpatirck! CHRIS!� �Uh� you need to see a psychologist?� �NO! No, dammit, I need a new rooming partner! CHHHRRIIISSSS!� �Uh, Lance� I think Chris is at least five rooms down the hall. He can�t hear you.� �I�m going to go to his room right now. Good NIGHT, Jace.� ��� �Hi Lance! You�re back!� �Oh. My. God. You�re still awake. Mr. Hyper is still awake. Mr. I-won�t-let-Lance-sleep. Chris, why, WHY couldn�t you be awake?� �� I�ll take the floor, kay? Just� don�t be mad at me anymore, Lance.� �Josh� nah, you don�t have to take the floor. Just� just PLEASE don�t move the bed. PLEASE. I NEED SLEEP.� �Okay� sorry.� �It�s okay.� ��� �JOSH, for the LAST TIME! Now you have to move the BEDSPREAD!? That�s it! Get off the bed. You take the floor. Good night and good riddance.� ��do I really have to take the floor?� �YES!� �Kay.� ��� �Josh? You didn�t REALLY take the fl-� �Hi Lance!� �WHOA! Jesus JC, What�re you doing on THIS side of the room?� �Um, couldn�t sleep.� �� get up here, Josh.� �But I thought�� �Come on.� ��� �Josh, PLEASE don�t say you�re STILL arranging the pillows.� �Um�� �WHAT�S so bad about sleeping next to me, dammit?� �� Um� well� things could happen.� �Like what, JC? Being woken up eight times isn�t bad enough, huh? Ooh, now monsters are gonna pop up and EAT US and tooth fairies are g-� ��� �Whoa.� �I told you things would happen.� �Hmm� eh� kisses do seem to happen in between sentences, don�t they?� �Uh�� �Josh, that was�� �Um� do you wanna do it-� ��� �Mmm� I take it you like it as much as I did the first time.� �Josh, shut up and move the bolster from this stupid line.� �But-� ��� �No buts. Move the pillows. I happen to LIKE the things that are happening.� �I know... You do?� �Yeah, Josh, you have nice lips.� �I�m moving the pillows, I�m moving the pillows.� �I thought you�d see it my way.� ��� �Good, now stop playing with the bed accessories and let me sleep.� �Kay.� ��Lance?� �What now, Josh?� �You aren�t really gonna switch rooming partners tomorrow, are you?� ��Nah.� �Kay� I think I like it better when we don�t split the bed.� �Mmmhmm.� �� Lance, think we could do this tomorrow?� �And the day after?� �Forever?� �Tempting.� �Can we?� �You like?� �Yeah.� �Kay.� ��� �Um, Lance� about just now-� �Love you, Josh.� �You do?� �You mind?� �No.� �Then yeah, I do.� �Kay.� ��� �Love you too, Lance.� �Sleep, Josh.� �Kay.� �Night.� �Night, Lance.� �Finally.� �Yeah.� �Sleep well, Josh.� �You too, Lance.� End. |
