Many of my mornings were of me waking up and getting dressed, as usual, and off to school. But things now, were way different. Now I was no longer alone in my apartment, my best friend had barged into my apartment and had practically invited himself to live with me. So, now my mornings usually resulted in waking up to loud music. It was quite annoying at first then I realized that without Michael as my alarm clock, I would have probably been late to my classes even if they started very late.

Today though, was thankfully a weekend which meant sleeping in. I woke up around noon maybe as I realized the atmosphere had been quiet for too long. I followed my curiousness and peeked out of my bedroom. The room to the guest room, which was now a very messy Michael's room, was closed and most likely locked.I couldn't help myself as I silently grabbed the key and turned it in the key hole. I slowly pushed the door open and found a sprawled sleepy Michael on the ground whilst holding a controller. There were empty soda cans next to the boy and lots more unhealthy goods. He snored loudly as I chuckled and shut the door behind me. I glanced up at the t.v. and noticed Michael was playing Modern Warfare.

I grabbed his controller and resumed his game turning the volume all the way down to a whisper. Instead, I grabbed Michael's headphones and plugged them into his phone throwing the music on his phone on shuffle simply because we both knew he had amazing taste in music like myself. I smirked and busied myself with the game beginning to get really into it. I didn't realize how much I was caught up in college that I missed playing video games so much. I grabbed a handful of the uneaten Halloween candy next to Mikey and ripped off the wrappers shoving them into my mouth. About an hour and a half later I felt a tap on my shoulder.

"Alayna?" Michael rubbed his eyes and sat up. I immediately dropped his controller almost screaming. I had completely forgotten about time and realized I had skipped breakfast and had not even brushed my teeth. I cringed at my actions and awkwardly smiled at Michael.

"Sup." I popped the'p' and Mikey raised an eyebrow.

"Why...are you in my room?" He sounded almost annoyed.

"Because I live here." I snapped, "and I suddenly got addicted to playing video games all over again." I sucked on my lollipop obnoxiously on purpose. Michael eyed me carefully.

"You...my friend...are lucky I love you." he threw himself back onto the mattress sighing and I smirked. I continued playing then gasped as an arm locked around my collarbone minutes later and yanked me down.

"Michael!" I screeched as both the controller and lollipop flew out of my grip. Michael laughed evilly.

"Stay down. You're under arrest."

"For what?" I rolled my eyes.

"For...for being pretty."

"That was so lame." I rolled my eyes.

"Shutup. You have been given the right to stay silent."

"It's a free countr-" his other hand flew to my mouth and it took all my energy not to lick him. Instead I barely mumbled. "Whoot oor we plying? Cups nd rodders?"

Michael giggled and took his hand off. "That's a great idea!"

"What? Cops and robbers? What are we? 9?"

"Come alaynaaaa!" Michael dragged the a and I rolled my eyes.

"First you get off me and shower because you smell like pizza and it's making me gag."

"Well. We come in a package so." Michael shrugged grabbing the controller and pressing resume again. I layed there in his lap for a few minutes and pretty soon we were both screaming at the t.v.

"MICHAEL THE COPS ARE COMING." I yelled.

"I KNOW I JUST NEED TO SWITCH MY CAR COLOR."

"THERE'S NO TIME THEY'RE ALREADY COMING CLOSER. MICHAEL CLIFFORD!" I shouted and almost jumped on top of him. Michael jumped up lifting the controller up and out of my reach. I groaned and jumped up followed his actions. I reached up on my tiptoes but Michael only laughed harder shoving me back a few steps as he continued. "Michael." I whined standing taller but it was no use, my height was no match for Michael's. 5'2 was way smaller than Michael.

"No way you suck at this game, Alayna." Michael hopped around the bed and I frowned crossing my arms.

"Fine." I snapped quite offended then walked out of his room into the bathroom. In a few seconds I heard footsteps hot on my heels immediately.

"Wait!" Michael called out. I shut the bathroom door right away. Michael banged on the door repeatedly making me quite annoyed. "Wait sorry Alayna I'll let you play. I'm sorry! Just please let me in or I'll get the key!"

"I'm not...wearing any clothes."

"Come on! You and I both know you don't undress that quickly. You always brush first."

"Well maybe I'll brush my teeth in the shower." I shot back. I heard Michael let out a sigh then a loud thud. He had slumped down in front of the door possibly with the controller in his hand. I giggled to myself. Michael was the most protective person ever. He could never tell when I was really pissed, and if I was, he got really clingy and always apologized immediately. I decided to not give in just yet so I brushed my teeth and slipped into the small shower. I took my jolly time singing as loudly as possible and making sure to scrub my myself rinsing through my hair. After I was finished I stepped out wrapping a towel around my body then realized I didn't bring any clothes inside. If I went out, Michael would see me in only a towel. I sighed then leaned against the door.

"Hey Michael?" I mumbled praying he probably locked himself in his room again. There was silence. I sighed in relief unlocked the door and slipped out. I almost dropped my towel and shrieked as I found a Michael in front of the door sprawled out. He was snoring quietly and his hand was indeed wrapped around the Xbox controller. I sighed chuckling lightly and bent down to grab the controller. The minute I grabbed the controller from his hand, he grabbed my wrist. I stared at Michael wide eyed but he lay still with his eyes shut tight but this time he had a small grin on his face. "Go sleep in your room." I mumbled attempting to pull my wrist away but Michael didn't budge. He still smiled with his eyes shut tight.

"Only if you and I go out and buy a second controller so we can vs each other."

I rolled my eyes at Michael's comment.

"You said yourself buddy, 'I suck'."

"No you don't." Michael finally opened his eyes and I began blushing really hard.

"Whatever." I pulled away but Michael didn't loosen his grip.

"Please?" Michael asked and I looked past him at the clock. 2 pm. I gave in this time.

"Alright get ready lazy ass." I commented but immediately ran from his grip.

"Hey Alayna?" Michael called out from outside my bedroom.

"What now?!" I began searching for clothes to wear.

"You look cute with wet hair." I blushed profusely at his comment.

"Shutup Michael."
