During the car ride, John pulls out his phone to check his notifications, only to find himself being pestered by Dave. Again. While he's only three feet away. Again.
TG: yo eb
TG: what were you zoning out about just a bit ago
TG: were you so overwhelmed with my strider charm that your mind just couldn't handle it
EB: your 'strider charm'?
EB: really, dave?
EB: and as i said just earlier this morning:
EB: why are you pestering me when you are literally three feet away from me?
TG: because i can
TG: seriously though
TG: what were you so zoned out about that you couldnt focus on my bro and i
EB: it's not that important, dave.
EB: like, really. it isn't.
TG: keep acting like that and i will have no other choice but to assume that you have fallen in love with me
TG: fallen harder than roses iq during that time she started drinking
EB: please don't compare my enjoyment of our platonic bro-lationship to our recovering alchoholic friend.
TG: okay fine
TG: ill stop for now
TG: seriously though
TG: youve managed to make this strider curious
TG: don't waste this chance
TG: just tell me or ill show you all the stupid raps that tavros kid keeps messaging me
TG: i wont let you sleep egbert
TG: all week youll be kept awake with shitty raps and ironic selfies
EB: fine, fine!
EB: no ironic selfies all week
EB: please! anything but those!
TG: but youre not against tavs shitty raps
EB: not really
EB: also stop being so mean about his raps. it's obvious you consider him a friend.
TG: ignoring that blatant lie
TG: tell me already
EB: fiiiinnnnee.
EB: /sigh
EB: i was just surprised at your brothers age.
EB: like, i knew he was over eighteen, but i didn't realize he was any older than twenty.
TG: you better not be falling for my bro
TG: i might get jealous
John's entire face went red, his blush spreading all the way to the tips of his ears, before he started typing quickly in an almost defensive manner.
EG: what!?
EG: no way, dude!
EG: i may have come out as bi, but that doesn't mean i'm going after people eight years older than me, right?
EB: come on, dave. even you know better than that.
TG: you got awfully defensive there egbert
EB: you've got to be fucking kidding me...
TG: dude
TG: im joking
TG: you might want to look to your left though
John raises an eyebrow.
"Wha-.."
He then glances to his left, at Bro in the driver's seat, and he sees what Dave was talking about. It's hardly noticable but, Bro's head was tilted slightly in John's direction.
He was... looking at him..?
No.
He was looking at the messages, on John's phone, with a cocky smirk.
John's entire face flushed red, and he turned off his phone entirely, staying quiet the rest of the car ride.
TG: john
TG: you turned off your phone didnt you
TG: bro can even be more sneaky than me
TG: he wasnt even trying to hide it this time
TG: good luck john
TG: dont forget
TG: youre here for a whole week
TG: ...
TG: ...
TG: ...
TG: id totally send ironic emojis now but theyre just so obviously ironic that they arent ironic anymore
