Beep beep beep.
PJ groaned and looked at his phone. 6:00 a.m. still to early to be up.
"Stupid Mondays...." he muttered laying his arm over his eyes with a sigh.
PJ was never nor going to be a morning person, unlike his brother Cil who always seemed to be awake.
Creek...
The door whined slightly as Cil gently opened it. PJ stayed as still as possible as Cil crept up to his bed. Cil snickered and poked his brother lightly.
Suddenly PJ shot up and yelled RAAAA. Cil stumbled back laughing as PJ towered over him.
"I'm going to eat you!" PJ growled.
"No! You're not supposed to eat you're brother!" Cil laughed shoving PJ.
"Ya sure?" PJ asked hugging him from behind.
"Yeah I'm very sure!" Cil said crossing his arms with a smirk.
"Ok I believe you." PJ said letting go.
He yawned widely stretched and rubbed his eyes.
"Hey you two already awake?" said Palette peeking in.
"Yeah. Morning Palette." said PJ.
"Hi Palette!" Cil said waving.
"Can I come in?" Palette asked.
"Sure I don't care." PJ responded.
Palette walked in and sat on the other side of the bed. Palette and Ink had just recently joined the family, so mornings like this where common.
PJ was still getting use to the feeling of not being the oldest, which was strange. Cil, on the other hand, loved having two older brothers. He liked Palette as a brother and that he kept his secret.
"So you two ready for today?" Palette asked.
"No." PJ said laying back down.
"I guess..." Cil said quietly.
Palette gently put his hand on his shoulder, "Don't worry Cil PJ and I will make sure no one bullies you, okay?"
He nodded. PJ put his arm over his brothers shoulders.
"If anyone bothers you I'll beat then up." PJ promised.
Cil smiled, "Okay."
"Alright! Let's get ready for the day!" Palette said energetically.

PJ looked out the car window tiredly as Palette drove. Today PJ wore torn jeans, a jersey, and beaten up sneakers.
"Well I didn't expect to see her..." Palette mumbled.
"Who?" Cil asked leaning forward front the backseat.
"Gen Clawdia." Palette replied pointing.
Sure enough there was Gen walking down the sidewalk.
"Maybe we could offer her a ride?" Cil said.
"Well school is a few more miles away." Palette said, "What do you think PJ?"
"Sure why not..." he shrugged, "Wait... who are we offering a ride?"
"Gen Clawdia where you listening?" Cil asked poking his cheek.
"Okay it's settled than!" Palette said and drove to the side walk and rolled down the window.
"Good Morning Gen!" Palette said.
"Oh. Good Morning Mr. Palette." she replied.
"We where wondering if you want a ride to school!"
"A ride? Well I don't want to be a burden..."
"You wouldn't be a burden! Hop in!"
Cil opened the door and patted the seat, "Come on Gen please?"
She sighed, "Alright. Thank you." She sat down next to Cil and buckled her seat than said, "Shall we?"
