Alex woke up to a knock at her door. Half asleep, she went to answer it. Aaron and Jason flew in like a whirlwind gabbing about something, "Can we use your TV, Nick is really cranky?" was all Alex caught
She watched as the boys hooked up the Nintendo not even waiting for an answer, "What are you talking about?" Alex asked rubbing her eyes.
"We weren't being loud, we were just playing and Nick had a cow." Aaron said as he acted out the moves his player was making.
Alex looked at them and then looked out into the hall. The door to Nick's room was slightly opened. Trying to keep from yawning she went to open the door only to find a very ruffled Nick who didn't look too happy.
"Morning." She said trying not to laugh at the site of Nick with his hair messed up, cloths wrinkled trying to free himself from the sheet that he was tangled up in.
"If you had to sleep in the room with those two, it wouldn't be a good morning." He mumbled finally freeing himself
"Ahh, but I didn't say Good morning, just morning."
"Same difference."
Nick lay back down and tried to pull the covers over his head, "I wanna go to sleep."
"My poor baby..." Alex pulled the covers up and kissed Nick on the forehead. "I'll wake up later."
"Thanks hot stuff."
Alex laughed and walked out of the room shutting the door softly behind her. She walked back in her room and glanced at the clock. No wonder she was still tired, it was 5:30 in the morning!! Alex looked at the two boys playing in front of the TV. and sighed. She was exhausted and was going to get her sleep whether she had to tie them up and put them in the closet. She grabbed a blanket of the bed and went back to Nick's room. She lay down in the corner and went back to sleep.
***************************
A hard kick in the ribs woke Alex up, she moaned and rolled over. It took her a moment before realizing where she was and who had kicked her. "Watch it, will ya!"
Nick was still sleepy and had no idea what the blanket was doing in the floor, then he realized that Alex was under the blanket, "sorry...what are you doing in my room?" he asked and then began to grin.
Alex got up pulling the covers with her, "IT'S NOT WHAT YOU THINK NICKOLAS GENE CARTER!!!! The boys woke up early this morning, like around 5:30(!!) and came to use my TV because you yelled at them. I wasn't going to get up so I came to sleep in here."
Nick just looked at her, "you look beautiful in the mornings."
Alex moved the hair that was in her face, "yeah, I wish." With that she went back to her room only to find both boys asleep in the floor. She made her way quietly into the bathroom to take a shower.
***
Alex got out of the shower and dried off, she hadn't thought to get her cloths so she wrapped the towel around her and walked out and screamed. Brian, A.J., Nick, Aaron, and Jason were all sitting in front of her TV, they all looked at her, "GET OUT!!" she yelled pointing to the door. Brian and A.J. scrambled to get out of the door, "Sorry Alex." they mumbled as they ran out, and Aaron followed not far behind them. Jason and Nick remained were they had been sitting, "WOULD YOU @ MIND?!?!?" Alex asked
"Ahh, Alex, I'm winning!" Jason complained
"And it's my room!!"
Jason looked up at his sister he saw how mad she was and knew not to push his luck, "I think I'll be leaving now." he said as he ran out the door.
"Good idea." Alex said behind him
Nick was grinning as he got up, "Got ya."
"Excuse me?"
"I just invited the guys to play a game that's all."
"You knew I was in the shower!"
"Nick grinned, "Pretty good aren't I."
"YOU!!" Alex went to hit him but Nick ran out before she could. If Nick wanted to play a game, so could she. Alex grinned and then went about making plans, she would show Nick that when it came to pranks some were even better than he was.
