       A life-sucking barbie doll was still on the loose, Ethan's parents were still made of plastic, and all she wanted to do was sink back into whatever comfortable thing was supporting her, so she did closing her eyes again figuring someone would wake her up.

        Ethan on the other hand had been up for about an hour unable to sleep, you would think it was the looming thought of his parents still being dolls and the barbie on the loose but no, he was currently trying to stop his heart from bursting as Lorelei cuddled into his side.

       She had stayed the night at the Morgan's not wanting to leave Jane and Ethan alone in case Debbie returned. Ethan too scared to move his parents anywhere else from his bed had joined the girl sitting on the couch as they returned from searching for the doll. 

       The search had been pointless but it had left them tired. Neither of them could sleep, though Benny had left them alone. 

      Unlike they had thought there were no awkward moments, they just talked, mostly about anything else than the problem at hand to get their minds off of it. Ethan wasn't sure who fell asleep first but somehow he handed ended up in this position and he wasn't complaining. 

       Ethan shouldn't have been staring but he was, she was just so ethereal, maybe it was that strange connection but the more he got to know the girl he knew it wasn't it. Benny had laughed at him and said he would get over yet, but here he was still not over it.

      His staring was cut short when Lorelei's phone rang and his eyes quickly snapped shut as hers opened. 

       The girl had quickly become aware of her surroundings and had now realized she was cuddling Ethan. She quickly pushed herself off of him trying to ignore the heat that crawled up her neck and to her cheeks as she searched for the ringing device.

       Ethan pretended that he had been asleep this whole time even faking a yawn as he sat up. His eyes landed on Lorelei as she reached under the coffee table trying to locate the phone. Her fingers quickly grabbed it and seeing it was Sarah, she answered.
