The next day I woke up extremely early for some reason and made my way down to the kitchen.
I made sure all my turns were correct cause I DID NOT want a repeat of yesterday's Shenanigans.
When I turned the kitchen light on, I was met by a shirtless Raphael. Triplet number 3. Of course he had a beautiful six pack but also what looked to be a burn mark on his left shoulder. I wanted to ask about it but I'm too shy to try.
"What are you doing up so early?" I asked but I could see for the most part what he was doing. He had a spoon in his mouth with a jar of vanilla cake icing in his hand. He looked at me with big doe eyes and blushed.
"I have a really bad sweet tooth." He blushed even harder and my heat skipped several beats. I laughed and went to the refrigerator for something I could snack on.
"Mom and dad left this morning for some meeting for work. They left a note on the fridge." He mumbled with a spoonful of icing on his mouth. I close the fridge door and looked at the paper I totally missed.
-Dear Niyah and the Boys,
Dad and I have some work that needs to be done and won't be back home until midnight tonight. We left the family van for you guys and we want you boys to take Niyah to the mall for anything she needs. The credit card is on the table and ONLY VICTOR CAN DRIVE!!!!!!!! We love you all and will see you guys and Niyah tomorrow. -She left me in the house with 12 boys.....
While I was panicking in my head i felt a hand wrap around my waist and I froze. Raphael reached over me to put the jar of icing back into the fridge. His hand lingered there for a small second before he backed away.
"It's almost 8, can you help me wake the rest of the guys up please?" I was in Lala land. He smelled so good and he was so warm against me. I wanted to be that close again but I'm not that bold to actually say that.
"Niyah, babe you ok?" I looked at him and blushed. I shook my head yes.
"Did you just call me babe?" He blushed and looked away. "And if I did?" He muttered softly.
I walked up to him with some type of confidence that I never knew I had and hugged him. He seemed surprised but returned the hug just as quick. We hugged for a good 5 minutes and it was perfect in its own way.
"We should probably start waking up the guys before they think I'm hogging you for myself." I laughed and agreed.
Raphael went to go wake up his other two lookalikes and the other twins while I went to wake up the other five.
I started with Ricky so he can do his man business cause I didn't want to be anywhere near that once he's awake.
I knocked on his door to make sure he wasn't up already but there was no reply. I pushed his door open to see a drooling Ricky hanging halfway off his bed. I would have took a picture but I left my phone in my room.
I walked to where he was and lightly shook his arm. "No mom it's summer don't wake me up." He mumbled in his sleep before flailing his arms towards me. I backed away before he could get one good jab in.
Seeing that the light and gentle approach won't do, I went for the more aggressive one. In other words I jumped on him. All gravity and 145 lbs later Ricky was well awake.
"WHAT THE FUCK. Why would you do that? You landed right on my stomach." He looked pissed but he was awake none the less.
I smiled innocently and attempted to run for the door.....

Before my fingertips could grace the door handle I felt a hand grip my waist and pull me back. So close Niyah, so close.
