"Are you packed?"

That's the first thing Lisa wakes up to, and she rolls her eyes at the doubt in Jennie's voice. "Yes, I'm packed. Let me sleep in just a little more though."

"Nuh-uh," Jennie doesn't bother shaking her to wake up; nope, she sits down on Lisa's stomach and sends her a small smile. "We're going to Thailand, Lili! I'm really excited about it!"

"Okay, okay, calm down." Lisa laughs as she heads over to her closet, but when she finally notices Jennie's outfit, her eyes widen. "Are you in your pyjamas?"

"Yes," Jennie replies, before looking down at her clothes and shaking her head. "Well, no, I generally sleep naked or in my Simba onesie, and I wouldn't go on a plane or through an airport in either of those. But I'm wearing my sweatpants and a comfy hoodie that kind of looks like pyjamas. So I guess I'm wearing PJs."

"Don't tell my parents you sleep naked," Lisa points out, "or they won't let us room together."

"Okay, I won't," Jennie replies, not getting Lisa's teasing tone, "are you going to wear your PJs, too?"

"I mean," Lisa looks Jennie over and then glances at the jeans and plaid shirt she was going to wear today. "You know what? Sure. Sweatpants it is."

She walks over to her suitcase, pulls her sweats out and puts her regular clothes back in it. She pulls on a sports bra and picks out a baggier t-shirt, and then turns around to Jennie.

Jennie just smiles at her. "Now we're matching. I'm also wearing my fluffy lion socks that you bought me, see?"

Lisa smiles and heads towards the bathroom. "I have to brush my teeth so I can pack my toothbrush. You can go wake up Sam if she's not already up."

"Okay!" Jennie stands up and walks out of the room with a bounce in her step. When Lisa reaches the bathroom she hears her little sister call out, "Jen!" and can't help but smile.

Once Jennie has woken Sam up, she lets the youngest Manoban show her all of her toys, and when Jennie notices that the girl has a Simba, her jaw drops.

"I have a Nala!"

Sam beams. "Y-yeah, Lali told me. She s-said that you'd think I w-was cool if I had one of these."

"Oh," Jennie grins as Sam hands her the stuffed Simba. She has Nala downstairs with her backpack - her mom had promised to look after her stuffed lion while she went upstairs to wake up Lisa. "I love The Lion King."

"Can we watch it?" Sam asks. "Lali's c-computer has a DVD drive!"

"So does mine, and I brought the platinum edition that Lili bought me for Christmas," Jennie says, "because we're going away for two weeks, and I can't not watch The Lion King for two whole weeks."

Sam nods as she starts looking through her princess dolls. "Who's your f-favourite princess? My - mine's Belle."

"I like Ariel," Jennie says, "but I also like Princess Bubblegum from Adventure Time. She's not a Disney princess, but she's cool, because she's really good at science and she's badass, like me. But I'm not really good at science. I was best at art in school."

Sam looks down at her dolls and then back up at Jennie. "Do y-you want to marry m-my sister?"

Jennie blinks in surprise. "Yes. But why are you asking?"

"Because then you - you'll be m-my sister, too," Sam says, "I w-want you to be my sister, Jen. You and Lali."

"Well, I will be one day. When Lili and I are older," Jennie answers, because she knows that they won't break up. They've only fought one time, and she knows that Lisa loves her. "We did a proposal for a proposal. And she gave me this really cool spinner ring that says hakuna on it, and hers says matata."
