"Nikki!" Rachel comes out of nowhere to ruin the moment, "when is Dawn gonna get here?"

"What do I look like? Her personal assistant?" Nikki asks exasperatedly.

"No, you look like you."

When, the doorbell rings, Rachel runs to open the door and Dawn comes in. "I was wondering when you were going to get here." Rachel says.

"I would have come here before now but Nikki said-"

"If she tells you that I told her to come late so I can hang out with Quincy, she's lying," Nikki says, "just want you to know so you won't think I'm only here for your brother. I'm here for you, I will be by your side all night."

~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~·~

"So much for all night," Dawn mutters.

A few minutes after Nikki gave her speech, she abandoned them and started following Quincy around like a pest. Even when he went the bathroom, he turned to look at her and she looked at him, not understanding what he was trying to say until a few seconds later.

"Oh, sorry." She said and left him alone.

"Are you ready for the sleepover now?" Rachel asks Nikki.

"I'm on a mission," Nikki replies.

"To get a kiss from Quincy before the sleepover is over?" Dawn asks, "that's not right"she says, her face scrunched in confusion, "before the sleep is over? No. Before the over is- whatever, just forget it"

"Whatever you're trying to say, I'll add that to the list. I'm looking for Quincy's room," Nikki says, open random doors.

"Why?" Dawn and Rachel ask simultaneously as they follow her around.

"This must be it." Nikki opens the door at the end of the hall.

"That's not-" Rachel tries to warn them but Nikki pulls her into the room with them.

When Nikki turns on the light, they don't see a teenage boy's bedroom, it looks like an office.

"I was going to say that this isn't Quincy's room, its my dads office." Rachel sighs.

"Let's get outta here, I hate offices." Dawn says.

"Why?" Rachel asks.

"'Cause it's where people work and they creep me out," Dawn says, turning the knob on the door which detached easily. Dawn turns around slowly to show them the knob.

"Why are you showing us a door knob? And why is it in your hand? Aren't doorknobs supposed to be on doors?" Nikki asks, sincerely confused.

"You're as dumb as my brother, you guys are perfect for each other." Rachel rolls her eyes.

"You really think so? Aww, thanks."

"For saying you're dumb or....."

"Guys, we're trapped in this creepy room. Rachel, it's your house, fix it."

"I don't know how to fix doors and this knob has been perfectly fine, its not even old."

"Lets just call Quincy so he can get us out of here," Dawn says.

"I didn't bring my phone with me." Rachel says.

"I didn't bring mine either." Dawn sighs, "guess we're stuck here till Quincy feels like coming into your dad's office for no reason."

"Okay, we get it, we're doomed."

They sit on the immaculately clean floor for a few minutes, Nikki sighing dreamily every few seconds.

"Would you stop that?" Dawn asks exasperatedly after Nikki sighed for the umpteenth time.

"Isn't this pic of Quincy cute?" Nikki shoves her phone in Dawn's face where a picture of Quincy sleeping is displayed on the screen.

"Honestly, he looks really cute when he's- wait a minute, you're with your phone?" Dawn realizes.

"Yeah, I don't go anywhere without my phone, you know that."

"We can use your phone to call Quincy." Rachel stretches her hand to collect the phone and dial Quincy's number but Nikki had already started calling him.

"Why do you have his number? How do you even have his number?"

~Flashback~

Nikki ran up to Quincy after school while he was waiting for Rachel.

"Hey, can I use your phone to call my mum? Mines dead and its really important."

"Um, sure." He handed her his phone and she dialed a number. She unconsciously reached for her phone when it started ringing and berated herself for not putting it on silent.

"I thought you phone was dead," Quincy said.

"It was, it is. This isn't mine its my mom's, I must've accidentally taken hers too. Okay, thanks, bye." She skips away.

~Back to the present~

"It just appeared in my phone." Nikki lies immediately. She calls Quincy three consecutive times but he doesn't pick up.

"He's probably taking a shower or something." Rachel sighs.

"Okay, we'll just wait for him. When he's done, he'll come looking for me." Nikki says

"Us." Dawn corrects.

"Yeah, whatever."

"It useless to put our hopes on Quincy, once he comes out of the bathroom and doesn't see any of us, he's going to forget that we're supposed to have a sleepover. He may even think he's home alone and invite his friends over for a party or something." Rachel explains.

"Ugh, your brother is the worst," Dawn says.

"No, he's not." Nikki says immediately, "he just has better things to do than babysit a bunch of girls. Unlike us, he has a social life."

"Let's call your parents," Dawn ignores Nikki.

"Can't, my mum forced my dad to go on vacation with her and she told me not to call them, I'm supposed to call Quincy if I have any problem," Rachel explains. "My dad really needs that vacation though, he's always at work. I can literally count the number of times I've seen him."

"This week?" Dawn asks, attempting to complete the sentence.

"This year." Rachel says seriously.

"Ugh, no wonder he has an office at home."

"This is not the time to talk about this, I need to see Quincy again. Lets just break the door down," Nikki suggests.

"No way, my dad will freak out, am not even supposed to come in here. I'll get into so much trouble if he finds out," Rachel says, "and he'll ground Quincy for not doing his job"Rachel adds when she noticed Nikki's reluctance to not break the door down.

"I have another plan." Nikki declares.

"Its impossible for us to pass through the wall," Dawn says.

"I have another plan."
