Through the Screen

41. Sleepy

"Night, Luke," I said to the sleepy blonde as he just grunted and turned over in his bed, surely almost asleep by now. I walked back down the stairs where everyone else was standing in the kitchen waiting for me to come back. "The giant is now asleep. And I think that we should just stay here. I mean, it is your house guys, if that's ok."

Cal, Mikey, and Ash all agreed that we could all stay instead of having to drive home. "So I'm guessing Bella is gonna be with me, Abby is gonna be with Ash, and Danni are you gonna stay with Mikey?" Cal asked. I looked at Mikey who shrugged his shoulders and I nodded my head.

"Could I just have some pillows and blankets? I'm just gonna crash on his floor," I said and Ash said he would put them in Mikey's room while walking up with Abby. "Night guys," Mikey and I both said to Bella and Cal who wanted to have a quick bite to eat before going to bed. "I could sleep for a thousand years," I said as Mikey and I got to his room and I collapsed onto the pile of blankets and pillows Ash had left for me.

"I agree," Mikey said as he jumped face first down onto his bed not even bothering with his blankets thrown everywhere.

I reluctantly settled my blankets and pillows into a makeshift bed and pulled the top blanket up over me, being surrounded in darkness. I continued making a line of strange noises as I stretched my back which cause Mikey to start hysterically laughing, probably due to his tiredness. "Can you stop," I said while laughing myself, "I'm trying to sleep here."

"Yup, sure," Mikey said as he got the last of his giggles out of his system. "Did we do drugs because I am definitely feeling like I did drugs right now."

"No we did not do drugs. I'm pretty sure I would remember that. And you're just feeling that like because you're really tired," I explained to him as I turned on my side to look up at him. "Plus, you'd be way out of it."

"Yeah, you're right. I am pretty exhausted," Mikey said as he pulled his comforter overtop of himself almost hiding his face. "But first I want to ask you a question."

I raised an eyebrow at him but accepted his request for a question.

"Do you still like Luke?" he asked me after a short pause.

"Wow bringing out the big guns aren't we?" I laughed a bit but stopped when I started thoroughly thinking over the question. "I don't really know. I mean, it's weird. I used to love him, but now that's just kind of faded away, you know? Like I still feel protective over him just not in the way that's like a girlfriend way. More of like a little sister protective way. I don't know, it's weird."

Mikey nodded his head taking in my answer. "I can see that. I felt the same way about a girl once, but more of a big brother type of protection."

"Yeah..." I replied and my gaze wandered to the floor. "Well, goodnight," I said as I turned onto my other side and closed my eyes.

"Goodnight," Mikey said and turned off his light.

-----------------------------

"Can we just not wake up right now?" I groaned as Mikey continued to nudge me with his foot until I fully sat up on the floor, which was surprisingly comfy to sleep on.

"Nope. We have a meeting with our manager today. And you need a shower and clothes so I'm going to take you to your house while Abby and Ash go back to Abby's place and Bella, Cal, and Luke are going to stay here," Mikey explained while I pulled myself up off of the floor and stood up, stretching my arms into the sky.

I rubbed my eyes, probably looking like a panda from my mascara, and sighed. "Sounds like a plan," I said as we both exited his room and continued downstairs where Abby and Ash were getting ready to leave. "See you guys later," Mikey and I said to them as they said goodbye and left. "To my house!" I exclaimed as I somewhat ran out the front door to where Mikey's car was parked. I hopped into the passenger seat and buckled my seatbelt, waiting for Mikey as he slowly exited the house.

"Do you have good food at your house?" Mikey asked me as he got into the car and hooked his seatbelt, starting the car soon after.

"I think so, why?"

"Cal and Bella ate all of our food last night," he said while we began the short drive to my house.

"Yeah they'll be the ones to do that," I replied. We pulled up to my house a few minutes later and I hopped out, pulling out my key. "Just chill on the sofa and watch Netflix or something. Food is in the fridge and cabinets mostly. I'll be down in like thirty minutes," I said to Mikey as I made my way up the stairs and into my room. "Good to see you room," I mumbled to myself as I gathered some clothes and went into my bathroom.

Great day to have a meeting.

I know it's very boring but I'm running out of things to write so I'm going to end this story really soon :( But thank you to all who have kept up with it, I know it's quite annoying that I haven't updated much. But I've gotten a new laptop so I hope to finish this book within two or three chapters.
