Pete wakes up to a scrappy note on his coffee mug.

Left this morning. At my apartment. Call you soon.
Love you lots.
-Mikey <3

Pete smiles and pulls the post-it off and sets it in his junk drawer, where several others lie. He begins to make his coffee, something he likes made specifically. You may think he's a black coffee kind of guy, he actually likes his coffees sweeter. Vanilla Caramel creamer with 2 spoonfuls of sugar.

Healthiest way to start his morning.

Andy's vegan soul would cry at the contents of the mug.

Pete's unhealthy junk food addicts soul cries in sheer joy at the contents.

Each sip is pure Heaven.

Just as he sits down with a package of 4 bite sized muffins, his phone rings. He'd forgotten to bring it from the counter to the table so he groans in annoyance when he must stand.

Call from: VeganQueen

"Hey, Andy." Pete answers the call.

"Good Morning, Pete." Andy grins. He sounds refreshed.

"You sound good."

"What's that suppose to mean?"

"Like...not tired."

"He went on a morning run for an hour." Joe's tired voice interrupts.

"Oh god, Andy."

"What? It clears the head."

"You're a different breed."

"Thanks?"

"So what'd you need?" Pete asks, sipping from his sugary mug of delight.

"When are we having another rehearsal?"

"Oh shit...we...we could have one today."

"I'm down with it if you are. Joe and I have literally nothing to do."

"Well...then yeah, we can go practice today."

Joe, Pete, and Andy decided to form a band 2 years ago. Joe sang most of the vocals even though he wasn't a vocalist. Pete actually wrote lyrics and played bass while Andy did drums and helped out with lyrics. They had a good thing going. The best thing was that Andy's family owned land nearby with an empty barnhouse on it. They just practiced there and got absolutely no noise complaints.

"Great. You need a ride?" Andy offers. He knows Pete's got his own car, he just likes to offer.

"Thanks Andy but I'm good."

"No problem."

"See you at like...2?"

Andy laughs. "See you at like 2."

Just before Pete hangs up her hears Andy yell. He assumes it's to him so he puts the phone back to his ear.

"JOESPH, I SWEAR..." He trails off. "YOU CANNOT WEAR SUPERMAN BOXERS IN PUBLIC!"

Pete stifles a laugh before hanging up.

Joe will be Joe.

He takes another sip and opens the muffins, taking a entire one and popping it in his mouth. Pete isn't one to wake up super late but he couldn't fall asleep until 4am. So now it's noon and he doesn't know what to do with himself until 2. Pete finished both sugary treats and heads to brush his teeth. He spots the shower in the mirror. What's he got to lose by showering? He still smells like sweat from last night. Might as well rinse himself off. He walks over and starts the shower. First off are his boxers, followed by his shirt. At that point, the water is nice and warm for him to step into. Showers are nice.
