A blissful sound welcomed me into a new day of life. My smile was on my lips before my eyes opened. And when they did open, I saw the most beautiful sight ever. She was standing in the doorway, her long, bushy brown hair covering the half of her face as she laughed, her hands on her stomach, her head thrown back.
"What?" I sat up groggily, rubbing my eyes.
She stifled her laughter.
"You." She said.
"Why me?" I said, my voice laced with sleep.
Suddenly, she stopped laughing and looked at me weirdly. I looked back at her, kind of freaked out at her reaction.
"What happened?" I asked quickly.
"No-nothing." She said, a light pink colour tinting her cheeks.
"You sure?" I smirked at her.
She rolled her eyes and threw my hoodie at me.
"I came here to wake you up. Your mom says you've been sleeping for an eternity!" She said dramatically.
I mirrored her as I playfully rolled my eyes.
"That's a bit dramatic, eh? Sleeping for eternity!" I mimicked her.
She took a pillow from my bed and hit me with it.
"Shut up!" She laughed.
"Whatever. Why were you laughing?" I asked her as I ran my hand through my hair, suddenly feeling self conscious.
"You, my lovely long noodle, look like a 2 year old baby when you sleep. Minus the slight facial hair you've started sprouting." She said to me.
I fake pouted and said,"Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why would you ever question my sleeping style and facial hair?" I fake cried in her shoulder as she sat down on my bed.
"Get off and go get dressed, we have to go for ice cream, you lost the bet remember?" She said, shoving me off of her.
"Yes ma'am." I stood up and stumbled a bit as I got stuck in my sheets.
She laughed at me. Oh God that laugh.
"Hey!" I said playfully.
"Please be careful. I won't be able to carry you to the hospital if you get hurt, half of your arm won't fit in my hands." She said to me, her eyebrows wiggling playfully.
"You live for my height." I said to her.
"That I do. Who else would get me the Cheetos from the top shelf in the fourth aisle of Walmart?"
"Me, who else?
"Yes, you. No one else."
