Andrea and Joba decided to make breakfast before Alicia and Matt woke up. Pancakes were the easiest to make, so they danced around the kitchen to music as they whipped up the batter and started making them on the stovetop.

"What's going on here?" Alicia groaned, emerging from Andrea's room and rubbing at her eyes.

"Breakfast. Why'd you sleep in my bed?" Andrea asked, whisking at the pancake batter.

"Matt slept in my bed."

"Y'all could've slept there together." Andrea smirked, making Alicia blush.

"Well, he could've taken the couch if the two of you had gone to bed." 

Joba and Andrea smiled shyly, Andrea beginning to laugh nervously.

Alicia shook her head and giggled, quietly walking into her room. Matt was out passed on her bed, and she smiled to herself at his state. She readjusted the covers that were falling off, grabbed some clothes to change into, and walked in the bathroom to shower and get ready.

Andrea served the pancakes on a plate, brought out some orange juice and syrup, and some fruit to eat along with the pancakes.

Alicia emerged from the bathroom with wet hair, walking back into her room to grab a towel. Matt stirred when she walked in, groaning as he stretched out his limbs.

"Morning, sunshine." Alicia joked, grabbing a towel from her closet and drying off her hair. 

"Is it late?" Matt asked, his morning voice evident as he squinted sleepily at her.

"Nah, you're good. If you want to keep sleeping you can." Alicia shrugged, sitting at the end of her bed and slipping on her socks. 

Joba and Andrea were laughing loudly in the kitchen, making her smile. She loved seeing her best friend so happy.

"It's fine, I'll get up in a second." Matt mumbled, laying back down against the pillow. 

"Can I ask you something?" Alicia asked, laying down next to Matt.

He hummed in response, turning to face her. She kept her eyes fixated on the ceiling, all her overprotective thoughts clouding over one another. She didn't want to be that annoying friend but she also had Andrea's best interest in mind.

"What is Joba looking for with Andrea?"

"We haven't really talked about it."

"Alright well, what do you think he's looking for?"

"He's never really been a hook up kind of guy so I'm assuming it would be something more serious than that. It's been a while since his last girlfriend." Matt explained, running his fingers through his hair.

"Sorry, I'm annoying. She'll be a wreck if he's not in the same headspace that she is and she's a Pisces so my days will be consumed by emotion." Alicia joked, making Matt chuckle.

Andrea burst through the door, startling the two of them.

"Y'all the food is gonna get c-" Andrea started, eyes widening as she saw them sprawled on the bed. 

"Oh, I didn't think I was interrupting something." She smirked, crossing her arms.

"First of all, knock rat. Second of all, you're not." Alicia laughed, sliding out of the bed. 

Matt rolled off the bed with a groan and fixed his hair in Alicia's mirror before following the girls out to eat. Joba was scrolling through his phone, munching on the pancakes. 

"How'd it go with the track by the way? I forgot to ask." Joba wondered, looking up at Alicia as she took a seat across from him.

"That's okay, you were busy." Alicia joked, making Joba blush slightly.
