Then AJ leans down and kisses me deeply, as he moves his hands up my shirt.
"AJ, should we really be doing this?  Brian and Sarah are right across the hall."  I ask.
"If you don't want to, we won't do it.  If your uncomfortable, we can just lay in bed and cuddle."  AJ says.
"You're such a sweetie AJ.  I'm sorry, but I really don't feel comfortable knowing that Brian and Sarah are across that hall."  I say.
"That's all right.  We can just cuddle.  You want to watch a movie or something?"  AJ asks.
"You want to watch Titanic?  It's the first movie you ever took me to."  I say.
AJ smiles and says, "You know I do."
He gets up, walks over to the TV, and pops in Titanic.  Then he walks over to the bed, gets under the covers with me, and holds me in his arms.

(The next morning)

'ring, ring, ring'

I grab the phone and say, "Hello" in a very tired voice.
"Why aren't you guys here yet?"  I hear Nick ask.
I look at the clock and say, "Oh my gosh, I must have over slept."
Nick kind of laughs, then asks, "Where are AJ and Brian?"
Not wanting to tell him that they were in Sarah and my bed, I say, "I think they're asleep in the livingroom.  They were so tired last night that I wouldn't let them drive home.  I'll wake them up and get us all there as soon as possible."
"OK, bye bye."  Nick says.
I say "Bye" and hang up the phone.
I lay my head back on the pillow for a moment.  Then I turn my head and look at AJ; he looks so cute laying there.  I move close to him and kiss his bare chest and move up his neck towards his mouth.  I softly kiss his mouth and he slowly wakes up with a smile.
"Good morning."  I say.
"Good morning beautiful."  AJ says.
"I'm going to take a shower, you can have the liberty of waking up Brian and Sarah.
"Not if I beat you to the shower first."  AJ says jumping up.
He runs out the into the hall way.  But I go through the door that connects my room to the bathroom and beat him.
AJ slowly opens the door to Sarah's room.  He can see Sarah and Brian, but they have a blanket over themselves.  AJ closes the door, then bangs on it really hard to wake them up.
"What?"  Brian yells through the door.
"You guys need to get ready, we over slept.  Suzy-Q's in the shower right now."  AJ yells back.

(We arrive at the studio)

 "Boy am I tired."  Brian says to Nick.
"Well, at least you got to sleep in an extra two hours this morning."  Nick says pushing Brian.
"No pushing please, I'm not very stabile."  Brian says with a small smile.
The director walks up all of us.  Kevin is laying on top of a table totally knocked out, Howie's asleep on the floor, AJ is sitting in a chair asleep, I'm sitting between his legs leaning back on him; I'm almost asleep, Nick is leaning against a table very tired, Brian is holding Sarah in his arms, she's almost asleep and he looks like he's going to fall down.
"I don't even know why I thought it would be a good idea to make you come in on New Years, especially after a party like that."  The director says.  "Just go home, well I take that back; you can sleep here, I don't think you guys should be driving."
