Dani wasn't a very heavy girl, but she was difficult to carry around because she kept kicking and calling me a pony, then getting mad when Alex called her a farmer.
I set her down on her bed, and she's still giggling like a maniac.
"Kaz!" She laughs. "This is my room!"
I smile. "Yep. I'm gonna head out-"
"No!" She interrupts. "Stay here. With me." She calmed down a bit.
"Okay." I sit down on the edge of the bed. "You alright?"
"Yeah, I just..." Her voice falters.
"You just, what?"
"Nothing, never mind." She shakers her head. "Just stay."
She takes her hair out of the ponytail that it's in and gets under her Batman covers. I take off my shoes, and get in next to her.
With a sigh, she calmly sets her head on my chest, beginning to fall asleep. I put my arm around her shoulders, and she makes this cute high pitched noise which I assume is her snore.
Alex quietly opens the door to let Aero in.
"She's gonna be a pain in the ass tomorrow with a hangover." She whispers.
"I thought you were asleep?" I avoid the thought of her being a pain in the ass.
"Yeah, well Aero woke me up. Make sure she sleeps okay, get her some water if she needs it." While walking out, she turns and glares at me. "Don't try anything funny just because she's unaware of everything going on."
Then all I see is a pastel grey hair flip and she walks out the door.

The next morning
I wake up, forgetting that I fell asleep in Dani's room.
What happened last night? I think to myself. Dani's arm is draped across my shoulders, and it looks like we've been cuddling for a while. She's dead asleep, and she looks amazing without trying.
Her eyes flutter open. "Hi," she says, tired.
"Good morning," I say, patting her on the head.
Then the realization that she drank way too much last night hits her and her face curls up into grimace.
"The hangover begins," She says, and she looks like she might puke at any minute.
"Okay. I'll go get you some stuff-"
"No, get Alex to do it or something, I'm comfortable right now and you're not moving anywhere."
I laugh. "Alright."
I pull my phone out, and text Alex's number.
Dani's awake and hungover. Please bring hangover stuff, she won't let me move.
It takes a while for her to respond, because she usually sleeps late.

Then, about 10 minutes later, she comes in with a tray of Advil, water bottles, Tylenol, and extra trash bags for the trash can.
"You would be my Jesus, if I believed in that shit." Dani says, reaching for a water bottle.
"Flattering," Alex says sarcastically. "Don't die. If you are, then you can wake me up. Otherwise, call Brendan, or make Kaz do it. I don't like being woken up."
"Note taken," I say. "Don't wake the beast."
She walks out of the room yawning.
