mindless stepbrother status?

27. running out of titles

Roc's POV

I woke up early Sunday morning and looked to my right. Nikki was right next to me. Guess I had a good night after all. She doesn't snore in her sleep, but she talks. I heard her saying 'stop' 'prince' 'stop!' all night. she even shed a tear. I walked into Kira's room to check on her but she was still asleep. I walked back to the couch and Nikki started talking again. This time it sounded interesting. "Roc." My name?? I got closer. "Love you, too." She said. Then she jumped up.

"Morning sunshine!" I said.

"Hey." She stood up and stretched. She went to the bathroom and I heard the water run. I guess she was doing her hygiene thing. I went in the kitchen and started to look for food. I knew Kira was only going to eat Fruit Loops, so I sat them out on the table. I went back and grabbed some bowls and milk. Nikki came back in some jeans, a black button up, and black doc martens. She sat at the table and started to pour her cereal.

"Nikki," I started. She looked up at me. "Did you know you talk in your sleep?"

"My Dad said I did, but I thought he was joking." Her eyes got huge. "What'd I say???"

"Mostly, uhhh, 'stop prince'."

"That's all?"

"Well, you did say my name."

"Probably because you were so nice to me," she said.

"Yep!" I said knowing that wasn't why. She loved me and I knew it. I just have to make her see.

I heard shuffling down the hall and I knew Kira was up. I told Nikki to go hide.

Kira walked in the kitchen looking oh so tired. "Morning Sweets!" I said.

"Hi." She said sadly.

"What's wrong?"

"Nikki left me." She hung her head low.

Nikki came up behind her and hugged her. "I would never leave you little sis!"

"NIKKI!" She turned around and jumped on her.

My phone started to go off.

I checked the clock and it was already 10. "I hate to leave you lovely ladies, but I have rehearsal until around 1."

"Rehearsal?" Nikki asked.

"Yeah. For Mindless Behavior."

"Oh yeah. I remember now!" I stood there awkwardly. "Go get ready!" She said.
