I open my eyes groggily, hearing a groan underneath me as I rub my face into the figure I am laying on. I lift my head slightly, blinking my eyes into focus as I look up at mom, a soft smile finding my lips as mom huffs and snores.
I try my hardest to hold in my giggle but it's too late. Giggles fall from me quickly, my hand flying up to my mouth attempting to stifle them but I only fail when mom stretches under me and blinks her own eyes open.
"Shhi...Sugar, what time is it?" Mom mutters as she manages to sit us both up, her arms still around me steadily. She maneuvers us so she can pull her phone from her back pocket, her eyes widening when she looks at the screen, my head moving out of her neck to look at it too. My own eyes widening as I move to then look at her.
"That...that isn't good. We got here at 4pm and it's now 9, mom! OMG DAD AND ROSE!" Mom slides on her multiple missed calls from dad, pulling her phone up to her ear as it rings.
"Hey babe." ew, nope, no thank you. I gag as I get off of moms lap and walk out of the room, hearing mom follow behind me, I don't bother closing the door as I sit down and pee. After moms small conversation, I can see what head space she is in herself, knowing she is anxious about me doing something. I don't want to put more stress on her. She stands outside of the bathroom, her back leaving just on the door frame as she continues talking to dad.
"'I know, I'm sorry, we were going to go but then we both got a bit emotional and ended up talking and napping...Colin, I know, I didn't realize my phone was silent...Uh-huh, how long till you're here? Yeah we can order...' JJ what do you want for food?" Mom asks me as she still has dad on the phone, I finish washing my hands coming out of the bathroom and shrug my shoulders.
"What does Rose want?" Mom repeats my question to dad. "Rose ate at Nanas, bug, she is asleep and will stay asleep most likely. So up to you?"
"I'm not really hungry..." I shrug again as I start to walk downstairs, mom following close behind me, I hear her mumbling on the phone but can't work out the words she is saying. I only hear her muttering 'love you too, bye' as she flops down on the couch next to me.
"You've only eaten a sandwich today, I need you to eat dinner. I don't care if it is another sandwich but I need you to eat something." Mom tells me as she leans over to the table picking up the TV remotes and putting the TV on.
"I know, I'm sorry, I just feel a bit overwhelmed to eat. Why don't you and dad get whatever you want and I'll just take some of yours." I smile at her, lying down with my head in her lap. Her fingers instantly comb through my hair.
"Colin wants pizza."
"I'll eat some pizza I guess. Maybe some mozzarella dippers?" I mumble as her moment in my head makes me feel sleepy. She stops her moments as she hears my voice, a groan coming from me as I sit up and frown at her.
"Why did you stop?!" I moan.
"You can't go back to sleep or you won't sleep tonight bug." I huff, knowing she is right, I groan as I let myself fall onto her dramatically, continuing to moan and groan as I roll around on top of her lap.
"If you keep doing that, I will push you off, JJ." I ignore her words, continuing to shuffle around moaning still, knowing she won't do that. But I'm shocked when I feel myself get pushed and I suddenly meet the floor, face first.
I sat up shocked, staring at her with my mouth wide open.
"ASIF YOU JUST DID THAT MOM!" I tell her, completely shocked.
"I said I would!" Mom chuckles, standing up from the couch and walking out of the room.
I follow her, still completely shocked as I find her in the kitchen, opening the fridge and grabbing a bottle of water.
