Hey, so, it was 1:20 AM as I wrote this, so please, excuse me if some things don't make sense, and I may or may not have forgotten to write music lyrics, but I'm literally so exhausted. Please give me this one excuse. Just put on some of your own music for me, thanks you guys!!

I was awoken to chaos itself.

"AHHHHH!"

"COVER YOUR EYES!"

I sat up quickly, and heard something slip onto the floor.

It was so bright in my cabin it took me a minute to adjust and see who was inside.

Harley stood at the side of my bed, his eyes being covered by his bigger sister, Nyssa. He wore a black camp T-shirt, beige cargo pants, and his welding goggles were buried in his mop of curly hair.

Nyssa had a plain red tank-top on, with a matching bandana holding her hair. She wore low-rise black baggy jeans.

"Why the fuck are you in my cabin at. . ." I glanced over to my clock. "Nine in the morning."

 Nyssa uncovered Harley's eyes and said; "We went to find you, for the New Years celebration tonight, and we find. . ."

"Why did you shout to cover my eyes?" I asked.

Nyssa hesitated.

"Well, I kinda thought you two were. . .um. Yeah." Nyssa said, her face growing red.

Harley grinned at me, and jumped into my bed, cuddling into my side. As soon as he laid by me, and fully sat down, I heard a muffled groan.

"Get your ass off my face, Harley," Leo grumbled.

Harley jumped from his spot, and switched to my left side as Leo sat up, his hair a mess.

Leo wore only his jeans from the previous night, and by the ashes brushed over my bed and in his hair, he had burned through his shirt in the night.

"What'd you think we were doing?" Leo rubbed his eyes. "We're not fucking. We're not even dating, Nys."

Nyssa's eyes narrowed, and she looked between Leo and I.

I guess I wasn't helping with my clothes.

My shirt had been tossed on the floor, and my braided hair had strands out, and was entirely messed up.

I put my hands up.

"In my defense, Leo's a sleep-cuddler, and he bursts into fire quite a bit. I liked that shirt, and Leo didn't mind." I said defensively.

Harley didn't seem to understand what we were talking about, and he hummed contently into my side. I pulled him into my lap, and his back rested on my chest, and he closed his eyes.

"Whatever," Nyssa said, pointing at us, "this  is, is not friendly. I know that."

"I've known her for years!" Leo complained.

Nyssa huffed and crossed her arms.

"Okay, what about the New Years celebration?" I asked.

Nyssa seemed happy to talk about something else other than Leo and I.

"Well," Nyssa took a deep breath, pulling a sheet of paper out. "We have the fireworks prepared for tonight's countdown and show, we need to get the boat set out on the shore and ready for start times. The Dionysus cabin is hosting a party at seven, the littles go to bed--fourteen and under--and the rest of us stay till whenever, but one in the morning is the deadline."

"They're letting the little kids come this year?" I asked in disbelief.

She nodded. "Let's just hope they don't bring the alcohol out till they're asleep, Chiron would be pissed."
