I was going to follow on directly from the previous chapter however I couldn't think of what to write without it seeming a bit weird and even more OOC than the last chapter. Obviously this is just a bit of fun but I mean, I don't wanna stray too far. Maybe I'll write that chapter another time, but right now I'm going to carry on with another one-shot that's somewhat kinda related to the previous chapter but it's a week or so later!
It was late afternoon and Tala was lounging on his sofa, watching TV. He had spent most of the day practicing with Bryan and Spencer but by 3pm they had become very hungry and had decided to go home to get some food. He was now sipping iced tea and flicking through the channels, waiting until 6pm when Julia would get back from her dance class with Romero. As he daydreamed about his girlfriend Sashaying around a big dance hall, he noticed his phone screen light up. Tala grabbed the phone and saw that he had an unread message, he curiously unlocked his phone, opening his instant messaging app only to see that the message was from Tyson. What could Tyson possibly want with him? Maybe he was about to challenge him to a match. Tala sighed importantly; he knew Tyson would want to face him again at some point. Perhaps it was today, or perhaps not, Tala thought as they began to chat.
Tyson: hey man!
Tala: whats up
Tyson: its Kai's bday on Friday right?
Tala: Yea, doubt he wants anyone to know tho…
Tyson: lets throw a party!
Tala: Hahaha, don't think that'll go down well after last time
Tyson: hahahaha but it was so much fun!
Tala: he's not spoken to me since!
Tyson: hes been sulking in his room for an entire week
Tala: it was his own fault lets be honest
Tyson: he actually emerged from his room a few days ago to get some paint stripper lol
Tala: hahahha as if Julia painted his beyblade pink, I rly love that girl
Tyson: she's a class girl man good on u
Tala: thanks, I'm glad you approve.
Tyson: omg I'm rewatching the vid, the part where he falls in the dish tho! I shouldn't laugh but that's comedy gold!
Tala: wait wait I gotta rewatch it again
Tyson: hahahaha how did he even get that drunk?
Tala: Bryan and Spencer, need I say more?
Tyson: hahaha legends
Tala: hes reported my youtube channel ten times!
Tyson: HAHAHA typical kai
Tala: arsehole, its gonna go into bad standing soon. No way I'm taking the vid down tho
Tyson: pls never take it down. But anyway, yeah, this party
Tala: I cba to do it but lets get Bryan and Spencer to plan it
Tyson: is that really a good idea….
Bryan has been invited to join the conversation.
Spencer has been invited to join the conversation.
Tala: we've decided you two are planning Kai's birthday party
Bryan: I'm honoured.
Spencer: hahahahaha YES
Tyson: oh lord
Bryan: I know a printing shop in town that will print the video play-by-play onto bunting.
Tyson: for fuck sake Bryan that is so extra
Spencer: Can we get one of those cakes with a print out of him falling in the dish pls! with "Happy Birthday Kai!" written underneath.
Bryan: Yes. Yes we can get one of those!
Tala: what have we done…
Tyson: It was your idea, not mine.
Bryan: excuse me, we want to make Kai's birthday a beautiful and unforgettable experience
Tala: Well I mean it'll definitely be unforgettable.
Spencer: I think it should be Disney princess themed. Just sayin…
Bryan: Obviously.
Tala: I am not dressing up as a princess.
Bryan: You've done it before, you'll do it again.
Tala: oh fuck you man
Tyson: What do you reckon we should get him as a present?
Tala: idk… a new beyblade hahaha
Tyson: in pink?
Bryan: HAHAHA I forgot Julia painted it pink while he was passed out
Spencer: I have so much admiration for that girl.
Bryan: same. but yeah idk what we should get him.
Tala: a medal reading "when you try your best but you don't succeed"
Tyson: oh my god he would kill you!
Tala: or "almost world champion"
Tyson: awww don't mock him!
Bryan: Why don't we ask him?
Kai has been invited to join the conversation.
Bryan: What would u prefer for ur bday Kai? We're thinking of getting u a medal but idk if it should read "when you try your best but you don't succeed" or "almost world champion" or "guy that fell in the dish" or "everyones favourite princess"?
Tala: oh shit
Tyson: BRYAN WHY
Kai has left the conversation.
Bryan: bitch can't take a joke
Kai has been invited to join the conversation.
Bryan: seriously what do u want for ur bday
Kai: for you to all fuck off
Tala: tetchy tetchy
Kai: especially you.
Tala: hahaha sorry but that video is too funny plus you deserved it
Kai: oh fuck off
Tala: that's what you get when you mess with my gf
Kai: at least I don't let a girl fight my battles
Tala: you're just pissed cus she made a complete fool out of you
Bryan: Kai did u see the photo of u falling into the dish is on the cover of beyblade weekly hahaha
Kai has left the conversation.
Tyson: you guys are so mean!
Tala: nah we're always like this, he's used to it
Kai has been invited to join the conversation.
Bryan: so is ur beyblade still pink?
Kai has left the conversation.
Kai sighed deeply, he was shaking with anger as he tried desperately to compose himself, hoping that he wouldn't throw his phone across the room. He placed it on his bedside table and turned to stare at the wall. Why had he got so drunk? Why had he thought it would be absolutely hilarious to throw punch at Tala and Julia? Because it was, he thought,chuckling dryly. He simply hadn't envisioned that he would carry on drinking and get to the point where he would accept a drunken beyblade match against Julia. He also hadn't expected Tala to film the entire thing and put it on youtube for the entire world to see. His blood boiled and he grabbed his phone, why was Tyson talking to those idiots anyway?
Kai: What the fuck are you playing at!
Tyson: I was only trying to find out when your birthday was!
Kai: it's on Friday.
Tyson: ok… thanks. Do you want a present?
Kai: what do you think?
Tyson: I'll take that as a no….
Kai: well fucking done genius
Tyson: I'm still gonna get you something!
Kai: don't bother.
Tyson: oh whatever, stop being in such a mood!
Tyson: seriously kai
Tyson: ... hello?
Tyson: omg get over it! you got smashed and made a fool of yourself, we've all been there.
Kai: please stop talking.
Tyson: Its' just a little bit funnier than normal because I mean… y'know, its you...
Kai: oh fuck yourself.
Tyson: You know if we have this party we can totally get Tala back!
Kai: … ffs. I'm listening.
