xx Chapter Four ~ What to Expect When You're Expecting xx

 "Rise and shine, babe," a male voice cooed. I rolled onto my side, causing some pain in my back. I pulled the soft blanket over my head to shield myself away from the morning light and the familiar voice. I moaned and refused to move, while still unclear of what was going on.

Another male voice groaned at my resistance. I then heard shuffles of footsteps appoarching me. I groaned from the noise.

"Get up, Alex! You're going to be late for your first day at work!" The voice instructed while tugging the blanket away from me. A rush of coldness bit my skin, and I shivered. Suddenly, I felt a finger poking at my stomach, making me burst into laughter.

"Okay, okay! I'll get up! Stop tickling me!" I begged as my eyes started to fill with tears. The poking stopped hesitantly, and I wiped my tears away.

The sight of a circle of boys chuckling at me greeted me. I then found the prankster and unmistakeably, it was Sam. He grinned down at me sheepishly as I sent him a playful eye roll.

I sat up on the couch, rubbing my eyes. I glanced at the boys and found them already dressed and ready to go. Then I looked down and saw that I was still in my pajama, and I had a crazy bed head. I sighed and stood up.

"What time is it?" I asked, looking out the window. The rare radiant day from yesterday was replaced by the classic, rainy London weather.

"It's nine o'clock," Marcus replied. My eyes widened. Already?

"Your a heavy sleeper," Caspar said while he massaged his shoulders. Then reality began settle in. I almost died yesterday but either Jack or Finn saved me. I also let myself cuddle with Caspar and fall asleep on his shoulder. 

"Sorry," I apologized as I sent him a apologetic look. He grinned and shook his head.

"Any time, Alex. Besides, you looked cute when you were asleep," he pointed out with a shrug. I blushed and looked away.

"Cute? What are you talking about? She was drooling!" Sam claimed. I sent him a glare. Jerk.

"Stop lying, Sam. You're just upset cause she wasn't snuggling with you," Caspar argued.

"I am not!" Sam protested, and Caspar responded him with a casual smirk.

"Okay then... I'm going to change now," I stated awkwardly, and the boys nodded.

I jogged to my room and put on a pair of patterned jeggings, a fluttering white tank top, then threw a blue cardigan over top. I brushed my teeth, quickly combed my hair but didn't have time to apply makeup. I grabbed my backpack with all my needed items inside that included my laptop and my Canon HD camera.

After a couple of minutes, I returned to the living room. The boys already have their shoes on and were chatting while waiting for me. I quickly slipped on a pair of lace-up leather boots that went up to my ankles and led the way out.

We arrived at the agency shortly and the boys led me to the room that they informed me was where they learn how to make better videos. We had four classes a day and every class was a hour long with breaks in between. After the second class, we have an hour and a half for lunch. This kind of schedule applied for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. We get to make our videos on Thursday and Friday and post them on the weekend.

I sat down between Jack and Finn and pulled out my mac book pro and camera; the boys did the same. Suddenly, the door opened again. Not expecting Bertie, my jaw dropped. I was defiantly having a fangirl moment.
