The team was sitting in Rohirat's room after a splendid odi win against South Africa.

Rohit was dozing off as always and Virat poked him, "Don't you have anything to do rather than sleeping?" He asked.

Rohit just grumbled, "Like you are not just scrolling through your phone." He said groggily.

Everyone else was engrossed in their own worlds not paying much heed to Rohit and Virat's fights.

"At least I am doing something." Virat said not being able to think of any comeback.

Rohit who was already not in a good mood because he was getting those nightmares from 19 November and could not sleep well. 

"Vi I don't feel good." Rohit mumbled, "What

Virat being unknown to it, continued teasing him relentlessly and did not let Rohit sleep.

 ~~~

Virat was in the lawn when he saw the time and realized it was past the dinner time. He frowned, "Why did Ro not call me for dinner?" he mumbled to himself and went towards their room.

He entered the room to see it pitch black, he switched on the lights to find Rohit sleeping again. Virat frowned, his rage building.

Virat took a glass of water and threw it on Rohit's face startling him awake. "What the hell Virat? Why did you do that?" Rohit grunted, wiping his face.

"Why are you always sleeping moron?" Virat asked crossing his hands on his chest. "I didn't sleep well last night." Rohit said looking down.

"You, the one who could put kumbhkaran to shame, did not sleep?" Virat asked guwaffing.

"I am also a human Virat!" Rohit exclaimed glaring at him. "Don't overreact now Ro, I just came to ask you why didn't you call me for dinner." Virat said.

Rohit stared at Virat for a moment, "Didn't this thought occur to you that maybe I also might not have had my dinner?" he asked.

Virat laughed out aloud, "How could you even not eat? Obviously you must have." He said shaking his head.

Rohit shook his head and lied down on the dry side of the bed. Being ignored like this by his best friend enraged Virat.

He strode and pulled the comforter, which Rohit had pulled down on his head. "If you hadn't been so lazy we must have won at least one of the ICC trophies. Thank god you were not in the 2011 squad." Virat said, fuming.

Rohit sat straight up hearing that, "Wha.... What?" he asked shocked to hear something like this from his best friend.

"We lost the world cup just a few months back, no one has moved on from that and you are here sleeping peacefully. Were those tears even real? You were not even there for the kids." Virat said, not realizing the change in Rohit's expression, due to his anger.

"Virat you don't talk like this with anyone, why just me huh?" Rohit whispered not looking Virat straight in the eye, scaring the answer.

"What just you? I talk with you the most!" Virat exclaimed.

"And do you not want to? Are you doing a favor to me or what?" Rohit asked standing in front of Virat now.

"Yes, who would even tolerate such a lazy person?" Virat spat.

"You really think that?" Rohit asked, firmly now.

"Yes."

"Ok then you don't have to do favors on me anymore."

Virat laughed, "You can't go a day without me!" he said.

"Watch me." Rohit said firmly.

"Yeah as if that's possible, stop with the melodrama now." Virat said patting Rohit's arm.

Rohit stepped away and Virat's hand fell aside. "You are seriously underestimating my self respect Virat." Rohit said.

Virat raised his eyebrow, "I won't be a burden on you anymore." Rohit said.

"Ro you know me, I won't go back on my words if I take it upon my ego. You would lose me if you continue this." Virat said.

"I think I knew you Virat, but looks like I don't." Rohit said, barking out a sad laugh.

"So this is it, I assure you I wouldn't give a damn about this later but you would surely regret doing this Ro." Virat said.

"Don't call me that, It's Rohit Sharma for you. Ro is only for the ones who truly care. This was just a silly little banter a few minutes before Virat but now I am bloody serious" Rohit said.

"DO WHATEVER THE HELL YOU WANT I DON'T GIVE A DAMN!" Virat yelled.

"Thanks for making it easy for me Mr. Kohli." Rohit said after Virat who stormed out of the room.

Jasprit and Rahul who were passing by his room heard Virat shouting and storming out. They went inside and saw Rohit sitting on the bed with his hands on his temple.

"What happened?" Rahul asked, Rohit looked up to see Jasprit and Rahul looking at him with concerned gazes.

"Nothing just got a reality check." Rohit said, shaking his head and laughing.
