^Connor's P.O.V.^

*Beep Beep*

I peeked one eye open and grabbed my phone from the nightstand.

"Agh!" I yelled, mad that the light almost blinded me.

It's 8:02 and I have to go pick up my mom.

I thrashed around and rolled out of bed.

I landed on the floor with a loud thump and crawled to the bathroom.

I flicked the light on and jumped back in horror.

"I look like death." I muttered, under my breath.

I brushed my teeth and washed my face.

I took a quick shower and threw on a black t-shirt and an old pair of jeans.

I made my way out the door and down the stairs.

"Let's go wake up Lilly.' Brain said.

I walked down the second set of stairs and knocked on her door.

I silently opened the door and walked to her beside.

She looked so peaceful with her mouth slightly open, taking in air.

Her little pupils showing again.

'Connor, you're watching her sleep! Girlfriend or not, that's creepy.'

I snapped out of my trance and reached my hand to wake her up, then retracted it.

She looks at peace and I don't know what time she went to sleep.

I'll let her sleep.

'Let's go wake up Jc!'

I walked back to the door.

I could see the sun trying to make it's way through her window.

I quickly closed the door and headed back up the stairs.

"Connor?.." Someone whispered.

I turned back around to see a sleepy looking Jen.

"Oh, hey, Jen. Goodmorning." I said.

"Morning, what are you doing?" She asked, yawning.

"I'm about to go pick up my mom."

"Oh, isn't Lilly going with you?"

"She's sleeping and I was too much of sucker to wake her up in her peaceful state." I smiled, guiltily.

She giggled. "That's a first. I usually just threaten to soak her with water and she jumps up." She laughs. "So you're going by yourself?"

"I'm going to wake up Jc." I replied.

"Is there anything you want us to do before you come back?" She asked.

"Um, well do you think you guys can cook something? It's just, my mom has been flying all morning and she hates airline food and a home cooked meal would-"

"Connor, that's fine. We'd be happy to cook for your mom." She smiled brightly.

"Great, thanks. And do you think you can wake up Ricky for me, please?"

"Sure! Now, get going. I know for a fact there'll be traffic."

I gave her a thumbs up and rushed upstairs.

I walked up the second set of stairs and made a left to Jc's room.

I knocked on the door twice.
