We all ate and then moved to the living room to chill a bit. With 'chill' I meant Joonas playing with Deaky, Niko and Joel talking about work, Tommi playing video games with Olli and Aleksi and me getting to know each other.

"So when did you move here?" Alex asked. I looked at him intrigued.

"How did you know I'm not from here?" 

"Accent." He stated the obvious.

"Right." I laughed, "I've moved from Serbia a year ago."

"Really? That's so cool! You have to take me there one day!" he said with a big smile

"Of course! First chance I've got I'm taking y'all with me!" I announced. The boys cheered and continued with their business.

"And what about you? Any interesting back story?" I asked Alex, with a teasing smirk. He laughed softly and replied.

"Nah, not really. I'm from here, moved to the Netherlands to go to college, came back, started a career, met guys..." He trailed off.

"It's not bad at all! I actually wish I had a life as calm as yours." I reassured him with a small smile which he returned.

"Is it too soon to ask about that storm?" He asked, referring to my past. I shook my head gently, ignoring the way my palm got clammy at the mention of it.

"I think it's a story for another time..." I pleaded with the best smile I could muster. He immediately regretted asking, his guilty look telling me all.

"Oh I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to step over the line.." he apologized immediately. I laughed it off and waved him off.

"It's okay, really. I haven't even told the guys..." But as soon as I said that Joonas jumped up and plopped down on my lap, quite dramatically if I may add.

"And who am I?! Nobody?!" He cried out and tugged at my arm. I grunted under his weight and tried pushing him off since he got his elbow on my thigh and it quite hurt.

"Get off me bitch!" I tried again and this time succeeded. He landed on the floor, still whining. "Was it really necessary?" I asked.

"Yes." Came a simple reply from my best friend.

"I told Joonas." I said to Aleks, just so blond one would stop bitching. "Happy now?" I asked Joonas who happily nodded and got up to sit in between Tommi and Olli, who were so engaged in the game that they didn't notice us.

And all the while I and Joonas quarreled, Niko, Joel, and Aleksi were laughing at us. Amazing friends, right?

Our night's fun came to an end when we realized that it was 2 a.m. and we had to get up early in the morning.

Joonas and Joel wanted to stay over, but others decided that it would be better if they went home for once.

Joonas soon after fell asleep, while Joel and I talked, listened to music, and played games until around 4 a.m., when we finally drifted off to sleep in my bed.

..........

The next morning was quite busy...you could say... I woke up with Joel clinging to me. I tried to get up several times, but he just wouldn't let go and I didn't have the heart to wake him up, so, as my last resort, I called Joonas.

I quickly sent him a text and a minute after he was in the room. I waved him over and when he was close enough I explained.

"Can we switch?" I asked pleasingly. "I've been lying here for God knows how long."

He shrugged and nodded "Yeah sure, wouldn't mind morning cuddles."

I lifted Joel's arm gently, just enough for me to get up and Joonas to slip under. Slowly, I managed to get up and Joonas laid in my place quickly, getting comfortable before I put Joel's arm back.

Joonas cuddled him and Joel stirred a bit, but nothing more, continuing his peaceful sleep.

Now that I was free, the first thing I did was go to the bathroom and then to the kitchen where I made myself a bowl of cereal.

After that, I really didn't have anything to do. Ahhh, finally found freedom and now I don't know how to use it.

I decided to check social media, see are the boys awake, and read a book I bought recently. After maybe 20 minutes I heard Joel scream and a loud thud, which meant he probably fell from the bed.

I ran to the room and saw Joonas laughing and Joel on the floor, looking traumatized, almost as if he saw a bird.

"Why was he in the bed with me?!" Joel asked, well more like shouted, at me....rude....(you get it??😏😉)

"You were holding onto me like a baby koala for an hour and when I couldn't lay down anymore I asked Joonas to replace me because I didn't want to wake you up." I explained.

Joel glared at us one more time before getting off the floor and strutting out of the room. How charming...  Shortly after Joonas decided to get up too and left me alone in the room. I tidied it a bit and got dressed. I put on black tight jeans and a black oversized button-up shirt, which is probably Olli's.

Back in the kitchen boys were sitting on bar stools and looking at me helplessly.

"What's up with you two?" I asked.

"We are hungry," Joonas said.

"So? You know where the cereal and milk are??" I stated obvious, but they still looked lost.

"Do we though?" Joel questioned with squirted eyes. Joonas shook his head and looked at me again.

"You two are next level of stupidity..." I muttered and gave them two bowls, spoons, cereal, and milk.

They ate happily but fast since we had to get to the studio in 15 minutes.
