Surprisingly, Josh was the first to wake, his arms still wrapped around Icabod, who still sleepily snored. Though suddenly he stopped, waking up from the shared dream that he supposedly left first.
"Eh.. wha?" Ic vocalized, his eyes returning their focus.
Josh stretched and yawned, making sure his joints were ready for use, even in his groggy state. "Mm.. g'morning Ic."
"Oh, mornin'" Icabod rubbed his eyes, then they widened in realization, "Wait, did that even work?"
"I dunno.." Josh lifted his leg like a dog about to pee on a bush, "Ask Ari or something.."
Ari was still asleep, laying on her stomach. Icabod cautiously lifted his arm, unsure if he should wake her. But his thoughts were cut off with the sound of a loud hiss. He turned back to Josh, who sighed in relief as he continued to relieve himself.
Ic blushed furiously.
"Aah!" Icabod exclaimed.
"Oh, yeah. Hah. Hehe." Josh giggled to himself. "..we should wake up Ari."
"Ok, good. Uhh.." Icabod hesitantly looked at her, still unsure.
Josh sighed and shook her awake with one arm.
"Ah! No! I'm not an entomologist! I don't even- oh. Hey Icabod." Ari rubbed her eyes.
"Uhh.. Ari, I have a question." Ic said.
"Fire away."
"Uh, did it work?"
"Did what work?"
"Did.. did you.. is.. is the wish button gonna leave my dreams now?"
"Eh.. 50/50 chance, did some bargaining with it. Though I didn't get it the desmopachria barackobamai."
"Oh, w-what?"
"Yeah, gonna need to google that later." Ari scratched her head, dandruff flying from her scalp.
"Uh-"
Suddenly there was a knock at the door.
"Ari?" A masculine voice asked.
"Shit."
