Waking up with a start, I almost hurt an already injured Talon.
"What...! What happened...? Did you have a nightmare Phebes?" Talon groggily inquired, half asleep, his eyes half-open and half-closed.
"Matt and Xylan happened!" Regaining my normal heartbeat, I paused for a breath.
"They scared the shit out of me!" Trying my best to ignore the flashes of Matt's camera and Xylan who was continuously jumping on my bed like a five-year-old. "Could you please make them stop?" I whined to Talon.
Since my team and I tend to share beds during missions or sleepovers, these two morons were well aware Talon would be in my room, especially after having gotten himself wounded. Unlike the gentleman that is Talon, these two behaved like they were raised in a barn and never did care to knock. - Now, if I was naked, I don't know what would have happened.
"What the fuck men!? ... We were fucking sleeping, not to mention I am still feeling hurt. The mission is going to have to wait until midnight or later; so why don't you go disturb some other poor souls. It is still early for us to wake up anyways."
More stupid flashes, "ugh...!" I mentally screamed while Talon shunned them.
"Matt! Stop taking those damn pictures! Or your sweet camera will see an early death. - The fact that Phoebe has her head under the blanket to hide from your stupidity shows just how annoying you are being." Biting back at Matt, Talon nuzzled the side of his face over my covered head to avoid the continuous flashes.
"You are no fun Talon; Xylan, tell him." Matt protested.
"Yeah, you're no fun! Party poppers..." Xylan pinched in a singsong voice before letting Matt retake the lead.
"You two are cute; the way you were sleeping, hugging each other, arms in arms. Phebes must be under the cover busy admiring your abs and blushing like crazy. You know how she tends to blush a lot."
"Hey FYI Matt, I'm right here and only under this blanket because of your crazy flashes and Xylan who is STILL jumping on my bed. Now back off or come join us to sleep."
"As much as we would enjoy to lay down and relax, we will have to take a rain-check considering it's already 6 o'clock at night. You two slept in all day while the rest of us slept till 3 or 4 o'clock. We already completed our assignments. Only Talon's work is needed, after which we will do some readjustment before performing part 3 of mission 'Strike-First'. So, I would highly advise you get up now. Remember the mommy call you have to make." Matt teased at my forgetfulness.
"We are so going to print out these cute pictures of you two and mail it to your place." Snickering, Xylan planned his devilish idea out loud.
Ignoring Xylan's Machiavelli plan, I ran to the far end of the room to find my phone that Xylan thought would be fun to hide. "I will get you back for this, Xylan." Mouthing my threat, Xylan gave me the 'come-at-me-bro' stares before breaking into a fit of laughter.
