"No! Don't go in there! Don't do it!" Demyx whispered fearfully, clutching his hoodie to his chest. "Noo!"
"Oh God," Axel groaned, covering his eyes, "Don't you know that something terrible is about to happen to you?"
"Guys," Roxas hissed, "Could you, like, I don't know, be quiet?" he rolled his eyes and sat back in his seat.
The trio of boys stared at the screen, one in fear, one in disgust, and one boredom.
Demyx squinted his eyes and covered his ears. "Is it over?" he squeaked, visibly upset.
"Didn't you realize that your happiness wasn't meant to be?!" Axel whispered forcefully at the television, shaking his fist, "Why'd you have to go and do that, huh?!"
"No! No!" Demyx howled, opening one eye, "Don't leave! You're going to die if you do!"
"It was all just a misunderstanding!" Axel cried out, jumping off the couch, "There's no reason it has to end this way!"
"Noooo!" Demyx screeched, burying his face in his hoodie, "Nooooo!"
"You guys are ridiculous," Roxas muttered to himself, yet his eyes never wavered from the screen.
Suddenly the lights went on and the three boys froze.
"What's all the screaming about?" Larxene, Roxas's sister asked, "Are you guys watching a horror movie or something? You cowards."
Axel, Demyx, and Roxas leapt into action. Axel and Demyx dived in front of the TV screen, blocking it from Larxene's view, while Roxas sat on the DVD they had been watching while turning to face his sister.
"It's none of your business what we watch, Larxene!" Roxas growled irritatedly, scowling at the blonde girl.
"Aww, come on, let me teach you how to watch a horror movie like a real man," Larxene commanded, making way to the couch.
"No!" Roxas cried out, "Just leave us alone!"
"Just what – " Larxene began, narrowing her eyes as she plunked herself on the couch next to Roxas, "Are you guys watching, hmmm?"
"Nothing," Roxas answered quickly, "Stop butting in where you aren't wanted."
"Why can't you tell me?" she asked once more, raising her eyebrows. "What are you hiding under there?" Larxene stuck her hand under her brother's behind, pulling out the DVD. Roxas glared at his space-intruding sibling.
"Aha!" she yelled in triumph, holding her prize in the air, "Now let's see what we have here . . . oh my!" Her eyes widened and she began to laugh hysterically, griping her side. "B-b-b-boys Over Flowers!" she exclaimed between cackles, "My brother and his 'manly' friends are watching a girly Korean drama?! No wonder you didn't want me in here! Ahahahaha!" she fell off the couch and rolled around on the ground.
"Oh, shut up," Axel commented and scowled, stepping over the hysterical girl to get back to his place on the couch. "You know you want to watch it too."
"It's sooo addicting," Demyx added, following Axel.
"Yeah right," Larxene retorted, finally calming down. "Why would I ever – "
Five hours later, four pairs of eyes were enraptured by the television screen.
"No!" yelped Demyx, wringing his hoodie in agony, "No!"
"You fool!" Axel yelled at the tv screen, gripping the edge of his seat.
"Can't you see she loves you?!" Larxene wailed from her position on the floor, covering her face with a pillow.
"Guys. Seriously," Roxas whispered fiercely, "Quit it. I can't hear."
Demyx, Axel, and Larxene all turned to glare at him, Larxene throwing in the added bonus of tossing a pillow at him. Suddenly, Roxas turned pale. "Oh my go – "
"What?!" Larxene shrieked, turning back to the screen. "Oh my God, we missed it! "
"Roxas!" Axel groaned, "Stop talking so much!"
"Rewind! Rewind! Hurry, Larxene!" Demyx cried out as Larxene scrambled to the DVD player.
"Look who's obsessed now," Roxas commented dryly, watching Larxene rush to rewind the episode.
"Roxas, quit yapping! I can't hear! This is a key moment!"
The four teens stared, enraptured by the drama unfolding in front of them.
In fact, they stayed like that for the next three hours.
Never again did Larxene tease the trio about their TV-watching habits. Instead, she instituted Saturday night drama marathon sessions.
