Ross POV

Its now 9pm and the front door swings open to reveal Adam and Alesa.

"Hey guys," Adam exclaims. I quickly put a finger to my lips to tell him to be quiet. He gives me a strange look then looks at the two seater sofa to see (Y/N) is fast asleep on it.

Alesa scurries off to see how baby Mason is doing while Adam strolls over to us.

"How long has she been gone?" Adam asks, referencing to (Y/N).

"About an hour or so. We were gonna wake her up, but we managed to change Mason ourselves." I proudly say.

Adam gives me a questioning look then walks over to the crib with Alesa and looks down at Mason. "Ross. You put the diaper on backwards."

"Its the thought that counts." I smile at Adam who just shakes his head with a huge grin on his face.

"Ross, I think we should head home now. We have to get up early so I don't really want to get home at 12am." Max suggests. I nod in agreement.

"Adam, we're gonna head home to give you some peace with Alesa and Mason. Night, see you tomorrow." I say my goodbyes.

"Should we... Ugh. Wake her up?" Max asks me.

"She doesn't look too heavy, maybe we can lift her?" I ask. I slide my arms under her legs and back, then pick her up. "Get her stuff, I can hold her my myself."

I then make my way to (Y/N)'s car and lean against it while waiting for Max to hurry up. I then look at her.

She has a small drip of dribble escaping her mouth while she's quietly snoring. She's so warm against me in the cold, crisp air.

Max comes out of the house with Barney behind him. Barney walks over to his own car.

Barney, Max and I came to Adam's house in Barney's car, then eventually we all went in Adam's car to get lunch.... If you were a little confused, I thought I would mention it.

I spot Max digging through (Y/N)'s bag, I'm about to question him but stop when I spot him pulling out her car keys. That's when I notice a Hatsune Miku key chain on it. Interesting...

Max unlocks the car, I then open the passenger seat. IT SHOULD BE THE DRIVER'S SIDE BUT, OH WELL. DAMN EUROPEAN CARS. Carefully, trying not to wake her, I strap her in, I then sit in the back seat as Max starts the car up and heads to our house.

-- -- -- (Small Skip) -- -- --

We arrive at our home. I climb out of the car into the cold night's air and Max throws the car keys to me, I don't manage to catch them but I pick them up after they fall to the floor.

"I'm going straight to bed." Max yawns, well, it is 10pm.

I nod then open the passenger door, I slightly shake (Y/N) to wake her up.

"(Y/N).... (Y/N).... Get up.... Wakey wakey eggs and bakey." I tease, she then wakes up, squinting. She rubs her eyes and yawns, stretching her arms and legs.

"Hi." Is all she says, smiling at me and sluggishly getting out of the car.

YOUR POV

I open my eyes to Ross waking me up. I rub my eyes, yawning while stretching out my arms and legs.

"Hi." I respond with a smile, I then slowly get out of the car.

"Well, this is your new home now!" Ross chirps.

An emotion of 'What...?' is on my face.

My eyes widen I'm realisation.

"Oh yeah!" I exclaim a little louder than I should've, looking around to make sure no one heard that.

"Haha, come on, let's show you around and you can bring most of your stuff in tomorrow." I nod, Ross has my keys and locks my car. We then make our way to their front door, they live in an apartment complex. We walk in and I look around at the house in awe. Its not huge. Its not tiny. Its just perfect, like my old apartment in Britain. Ross then locks the front door, turning on the lights to show the reasonably sized living room.

"You can use my room until we can be bothered to sort out an air bed or get a mattress out to go on the living room floor. Sorry if it's not as big as you expected." Ross awkwardly says, scratching the back of his head with one hand while the other stays firmly in his pocket.

"I can't take your b-" I start to disagree but he quickly stops me.

"Just take my room." He smiles at me, I smile back and then nod.

"Follow me. Do you have pajamas?" He asks as we walk down a hall.

"Not really." I shrug, being too lazy to go into my car and get some.

"This is it." He walks in, turning on the light and walking towards a set of drawers. "Find something to wear if you like. You know where the kitchen is and I'll be in the living room if you need anything."

"Thank you so much." I reply.

"It's no trouble really." He smiles a cute smile towards me. I then dive in for a hug, holding him close. We stay there for a moment just hugging.

"See you in the morning, (Y/n)." He kisses the top of my head, leaving the room while shutting the door behind him.

I sigh, a content smile now on my face. I then remember the task at hand and check the drawers.

First drawer.... Underwear and socks.

Second drawer.... Many trousers, mainly jeans.

Third drawer.... T-shirts. Let's have a look.

I dig through a little, looking for something big. That's when I see a KNACK themed shirt. I pick it up and hold it out, its reasonably big, probably purposely bought big so he could keep it for a while. I decide that'll be good enough to sleep in.

What about pants? I have a quick check of my underwear and decide against only wearing them and a shirt to bed. Maybe there are some tracksuit bottoms that I missed?

To no avail. There aren't any. Only some three quarter length cargo shorts.

I then check his underwear drawer again and find some elastic Homer Simpson pants. But they come around mid-thigh so I decide to choose them, throwing them onto the bed with the shirt.

I close the drawers and stand in front of the bed, taking my phone out of my pocket and chucking it onto the bed too.

Swiftly, I whip off my top, I then take my bra off too since it's been digging into my side due to the wire sticking out. Stupid old bra... I then chuck on the KNACK top, pulling my pony tail out and shaking my head. Whipping off my skinny jeans and my knickers, I pulling on the Homer Simpson underwear. There is a little baggage where the package should go, but I just ignore that.

I pick up my pile of clothes and shove them on top of a chair, deciding to sort them out tomorrow.

Picking up my phone, I fall back onto the bed, stretching out and scrolling through social media to see recent posts.

After around ten minutes I get bored and sit up.

That's when I realise I left my favourite stuffed toy in the car that I can't seem to sleep without. My best solution is to sneak out and get it... So that's what I'll do.
