(A/N) Y'know, when I checked my account, I wasn't expecting to see 45 notifications. Guess that's a good thing?

Monika POV

I woke up with a small yawn, and looked around. I wasn't actually expecting to fall asleep on this couch. I was planning to wait for the other 3 to sleep, and then go to my bed. Or at least for Natsuki and Yuri, I'm sure Sayori wouldn't question. Maybe she'd follow me? Uh, w-wait, what? I shake my head. I was about to get up, but then realized that Sayori was leaning on my shoulder. I pat her head.

"Hey, Sayo, wake up. I need to shower."
"But you didn't yesterday..." She whined quietly.

"I didn't because I forgot to. Besides, I've worn this nightgown last night, the entirety of yesterday, and this night. I should change before this thing starts smelling." Sayori muttered something, but did get off of me. "Thank you~." I said in a sing-song voice. Sayori smiled slightly, looking away.

I go upstairs and into my bathroom. I lock the door, turn on the shower, and undress. I felt the water, starting uncomfortably lukewarm before changing into a comfortable heat. I guess I'm just in a singing mood, because I started humming a rhythm that I've been working on for my piano practice. I just hope I can find the perfect notes for it. I'm not exactly perfect at romance songs, or singing in general, but I have a reason for this one. After reaching the point where I got stuck, I sighed in frustration. Music making is harder than it really should be. I turn the shower off, and wrap a towel around my body. After brushing my teeth, I walk over to my room. I pull out a white dress with straps that hold it on my shoulders, as well as a long band that keeps the dress close around my waist. It's my favorite clothes, as it's one of the few clothes that I own that could be passed off as casual, as well as my parents not minding it at all. Right, my parents. I don't know when they will come, so I should probably get my friends to leave before then. I head downstairs and see that Sayori is still partially asleep. She will probably be fully awake in time. I decided to wake Yuri next. I shook her lightly, but other than some mutters, nothing happened. I started putting more force into the shaking.

"Yuri! Wake up!" Her eyes finally opened.

"Huh? Wha?" Yuri looked around frantically, and I seemed to wake Natsuki, who I didn't realize was on her lap, though she was less awake than Yuri.

"And, uh, you wake up, too, Natsuki...?" She looked at me, then at Yuri, then the position she's in clicked, and she rose up as fast as she could.

"You didn't see anything." She snarled at me, which honestly, wasn't intimidating due to Natsuki looking like herself. Yuri looked a little scared though.

"Tell that to Sayori first." I pointed to Sayori, who was lazily watching us, smiling. Natsuki just violently glared at her. "Anyways, my parents might be home soon, and I'm not sure they would like it if I had people over without their permission. It has been fun, but you guys should probably leave." I said.

"Is that so... Well, I enjoyed my time with you all. I hope I didn't cause too much trouble. I'll just take...?" Yuri looked at where her cat was, to see Natsuki lightly petting them. "O-oh... uh, N-Natsuki...?" She looked up at her.

"Oh, right. S-sorry, I guess." Natsuki said. It really seems like Natsuki simply can't be as mad as she used to. At least with Yuri. 

"No, no, it's a-alright..." Yuri said, picking up her cat. "I'll see you all in the club." She bowed and walked away. Natsuki kept looking at where Yuri went. Maybe she was either thinking or was reluctant to leave. Sayori seemed to notice too.
