Series: Axis Powers Hetalia/Homestuck crossover
Pairings/Characters: America x Dave, John
Alfred F. Jones, naked and previously basking in post-orgasmic sleep, had been woken up with a series of rough shoves and punches. He glared at the offender through a blur of darkened colors, and scowled. Lit up by the bright-ass light of his iPhone, Dave Strider was staring down at him behind his shades, frown set into an anxious frown. Alfred flipped him off and was about to turn over when Dave shoved his phone into his face, causing Alfred to his and curse from the light glowing directly into his eyes.
"Fuck, Strider! What the fuck is it?"
"Read it."
"Uh--what?"
"Read it."
Alfred took the iPhone and scrunched up his face. He squinted his aching eyes, slowly sounding out, "Shi-ka-ta ga na-i."
"The fuck does that mean."
"Uh...something, definitely."
Dave snorted, snatching his iPhone back from Alfred, who curled back up on his side, facing away from Dave. "No shit, Jones. Fuck, what's John doing sending me Chinese bullshit?"
Just as Dave began to furiously copy/paste the phrase into iTranslator, his blurry-visioned companion gave his back a lazy slap. "Hey, man, it's Japanese, get it the fuck right. Tell John I say hi, too, I like that kid. Great kicker."
Alfred was met with a punch, but nothing else. He could hear the light tappings against the touchscreen, the keyboard clicking with every character entry. It was comforting, almost, and Alfred had to assume it was from falling asleep to Dave's furious Pestering nearly every night. He was almost welcomed back into dreamland when he heard Dave leave to go to the bathroom. Normally, this wouldn't be something for him to note, but he could see the glow of his iPhone against the wall, and in an instant he flipped over and snatched the phone into his hands. A chance to read some of Dave's pesterlogs? Oh fuck yeah. He didn't even care that he had to hold it within an inch of his face to read it.
TG: john
TG: john you dumbshit answer me
EB: alright, alright!!!
EB: i was trying to sleep, dave :P
EB: what's wrong?
TG: i just slept with him
EB: wooooooooah, hold up!!!
EB: you slept with...?
TG: yeah
EB: well hey!
EB: congratulations! :D
TG: fuck what do you mean congratulations this is the worst thing thats happened in my entire life
TG: and you know thats a fucking big deal
EB: it is also a big fucking lie!
EB: look, you're in a relationship, dave.
EB: i know that has to be weird for you or something
EB: but i think you really have something great going!
TG: what
EB: dave
EB: do not make me state the obvious, please.
EB: ...dave?
EB: hello?
EB: jeez if you're going to just leave like that then i am very disappointed in you.
TG: i think i really like this guy fuck
EB: told you!!!!
EB: shikata ga nai~
TG: thats fucking stupid i had to google that shit you know
TG: also al says hi
EB: hi alfred!!! :D
Alfred paused, staring at the conversation. It made him feel...special, almost, that Dave would go through the trouble of waking up just to tell his best friend about his sex life. That or it just made him want to burst out laughing. Either way, it put a smile on his face that Dave talked about him so...nicely, compared to how they spoke to each other in person. It was sort of an unspoken promise they made to each other, to never be openly sappy with words or possibly exploitable exchanges. The goal was to be cool, make out, and have secret spoonings so they could both forget the troubling things in life for just a few hours. It was hard, though, trying to keep up this "straight guys sharing an apartment" gig, so that was what made their closest friends so great. Everyone needed someone to talk to, and Alfred sometimes wondered if Dave knew that better than he did.
TG: hey john! :D took dave's phone for a bit, i don't think he'll mind too much, y'know?
TG: he's the one that left it here while he went to go take a piss. finders keepers!
TG: but what's up with you, it's like...wow fuck it's 4am why are you awake, man?
EB: oh, you know, being at dave's beck and call as usual :P
TG: lol i hear you!
TG: man, there was this one time that dave called me and alkalkwaw
EB: alfred?
EB: oh...guess dave got you.
EB: talk to you two later!
EB: (and I hope you two used a condom!)
