(This is actually based on real life, I saw this on TV and couldn't stop laughing. The comment Kat makes was from my dad, and the text of brian was smth my best friend send when I send him the videos on snap lmao.)
Eric was quite possibly dying, and he had to let a certain someone know.
"Kat! Katherin!" Eric wheezed, barely able to breath through his laughing fit. He didn't understand why silly things like this always made him crack up, but it just did the job apparently.
"What now, Eric?!" kat screamed back, not in the mood for her brother's dumb jokes. School was kicking her ass, to put it lightly, and she had been on the verge of a mental breakdown less than a minute ago.
"You have to see this! I can't fucking breathe anymore." Tears streamed down his cheeks as he reached for his phone to record it. This made Kat move to the living room, her homework could wait, and if Eric was really laughing at something this hard, it had to be good.
She was not disappointed.
At all.
On the TV-screen was some German advent show playing, and although Kat wondered why Eric was watching it in the first place, the matter at hand caught her eye. This was comedy gold. Eric pointed at the little girl on the screen, as if Kat hadn't noticed it yet, and couldn't help but start wheezing harder. Until that moment, Katherin hadn't been sure it was possible to laugh this hard, but Eric made it very clear it was. The poor little girl on scree was wearing an actual star costume, completely decked with lights and all, and seemed to have the time of her life.
She couldn't have had any idea Eric and Katherin were laughing her right in her face.
The few dance steps she was doing weren't doing the blonde boy any good either, he only faintly remembered how to breathe by now. Just as the two siblings were trying to get some air as the lead singer was on screen again, the camera moved from her to the entire stage again.
Things got only better from then on.
Instead of just one girl now, there were about 10 now. It looked like they'd formed an army, ready to battle anyone laughing straight in their ace.
Kat and Eric were having the time of their lives.
By the time the lights on their costumes started flickering, Eric lost it and almost accidentally dropped his phone in the progress.
This was absolutely golden.
The kids seemed like they were having the time of their lives though, completely obvious of the two teenager's amusement.
"Oh my god, imagine if one of them got electrocuted." Eric knew he probably shouldn't have laughed this hard at Kat's comment, but he couldn't care less about one of those poor kid's life in the moment.
God, he hoped he'd be able to breathe again after this. At this point, he couldn't even remember his own name.
Sadly, (for Kat and Eric the kids were probably ecstatic), the performance was over and the kids ran off stage. Eric dared to look next to him, and wasn't surprised at his sister's appearance at all. She had tears streaming over her cheeks, and her face had grown red due to the lack of air. The almost mental breakdown over her stupid homework was nowhere to be seen anymore. If Katherin looked this disheveled, Eric could only imagine how he must look.
As the two siblings finally got the time to get some air back into their lungs, in a house a few blocks away Brian's phone chimed. He reached for it on his nightstand and opened Eric's message. The boy couldn't make out that much of the footage, as Eric had been shaking with laughter while he filmed it, but could see some kid dressed up in a, complete with lights, star costume. His boyfriend's laughter bounced off the walls in Brian's otherwise silent room as he turned up the volume. The brunet smiled as he heard the incredulous laughter and was content knowing the boy he loved so much was having fun. Before he went back to the biology project he'd been working on previously, he texted back with a smile on his face;
'Eric, some people make their living by playing a star every now and then.'
When the blonde read it, Eric couldn't help but start laughing again.
