QUICK AUTHORS NOTE
hihihi!! i apologize for the lack of content, anxiety has been an ass recently and im having bad intrusive thoughts + fatigue constantly and its not goin' great. im trying to get more in but it might take a long while for me to do that, as im a slow person.

exhaustion is literally piled on me so this is technically me projecting what i desperately crave as im also touch starved and thats not fun, so heres a fluffy, short n' sweet sleep fic as i felt like writing something smaller for the continuation of chapter seven.

do read chapter seven first to know whats going on within this chapter in case you get confused. with that being said, enjoy the fic! i appreciate yalls patience, you folk are too kind <3

ill also apologize for this bein' more shorter then the others, i wanted to get something quick out. this isnt edited and probs wont be edited either lol. it isnt the best chapter, i apologize.

"boys, quit rough housing at the dinner table!"

tommy pouted, dropping into the wooden chair with a thud, it lightly creaking at the sudden weight that was let down onto it. "wilbur started it!" the blonde shouted, pointing a bony looking finger at the eldest brunette. the man gasped, placing a hand over his heart as if he had been shot with a flint-tipped arrow.

"nikiiii! kick the child out!" wilbur whined, sinking into his chair more with a grumble. niki, along with ranboo and tubbo, silently stared at the dramatic duo that sat around the dining room table. they had just finished the delicious macaroni the pinkette had made for them, tommy ruining the peaceful moment by provoking wilbur when he stole his bottle of water.

"maybe if you didnt take his water, tommy, wilbur wouldnt be upset." tubbo spoke casually from his place, shoving another spoonful of the macaroni into his mouth quickly. he was practically inhaling the food, ranboo's paw-like hand placed on the shorter brunette's back in preperation to help his friend not choke.

"well im sorry that i thought it was mine! they all look the same!" the blonde argued, stabbing his fork into the last noodle on the plate he had in front of him. "should've put a 'w' on the cap in permanent marker."

"to be fair, it was closer to him then it was to you. yours is right there--" ranboo pointed out, motioning to the water bottle that sat idle on the table to his left. tommy groaned, slamming his face against the table. how could he have missed that?

wilbur giggled, picking up his empty plate and discarding it in the sink. ranboo followed suit, and tubbo merely put more macaroni onto his plate. he was definitely going to be sick the next day, but who could really blame him for spooning a bit more onto his plate? the homemade macaroni niki baked was always a delicious treat.

"come on, big men! lets watch a movie!" wilbur cheered, shoving tommy out of his chair and dragging tubbo out of his own. niki chuckled, watching the energetic boys rush to the living room. she stayed behind to tidy up, ranboo helping her out a bit while the others set up the living room for the movie.

...

tubbo yanked a DVD case out of the cabinet underneath the television. a wide collection of disney films and other miscellaneous CDs were tucked neatly into little plastic wraps, dividing each disc apart so they wouldnt scratch each other.

"can we watch up?" tommy spoke happily, tucking himself into a large wooly blanket he had stolen from niki's bedroom. wilbur sat beside him, an arm hanging loosly on the blonde tanuki's shoulders. tubbo muttered incoherent words, shrugging before handing the DVD case to ranboo-- who was just exiting the kitchen in preperation to read out various names of movies he had watched several times over.

"alright, theres mulan?" the enderman chirped, getting no response from the exhausted boys in the living room. he sighed, flipping through other sheets of CDs before landing on a familiar one that tubbo quite liked.

"the jungle book?"

no responses.

ranboo looked up, noticing the shortest brunette lying lazily on him. he was softly snoring, tail twitching in his sleep. the enderman's eyes darted to the couch, where wilbur and tommy rested peacefully. he shrugged, putting the CD case back where it belonged and lifted tubbo into his arms carefully.

he brought himself to the rocking chair in the corner, sitting down before carefully adjusting tubbo into his lap. the teen shoved his face into the crook of the endermans neck, content. ranboo let a gentle, deep purr emite from his body, and soon fell asleep aswell.

least to say, when niki arrived with some popcorn bags and waters she wasnt surprised all the boys had fallen asleep,,, again. the pinkette giggled, and quietly left the room, leaving the popcorn bags idle on the table for the next day. she wandered to her own room, and shut the door silently.

a long day it had been, but it wasnt a bad one. sure, niki had been left the only one awake on both nights but the boys had fun, and thats all that mattered to the pinkette. she tucked herself under her blanket, and got comfortable before falling into a deep sleep, awaiting tomorrows chaos eagerly.
