Alyssa's Point Of View

***

My alarm rings, I got off from my comfy bed, stole a glance at the other side of the room. All I saw was a snoring figure, her hair is a mess and half of her body is hanging off the bed. This girl, one day she is going to die of excessive sleeping. I sigh, time to get ready and wake that lazy ass. This a normal day for us, her being a pain in the ass until she is fed and me feeding her. She is like a child, that I can't get rid of and don't want to.

I did my daily routine and got dressed in some loose blue jeans and a stripped t-shirt. I took a glass, filled it to brim and dumped it on her face. She woke up with a start, gasping for air. Her expression was priceless. We pull pranks on each other all the time. She looked at me with water dripping, and glare in her eyes.

"Ally, run." She said, that's all it took. I didn't wait and ran for my life. She launches out of her bed and runs after me.

"Ally, I am going to kill you" She says still chasing me around the room throwing a pillow at me.

"Eve, you deserved it." I laugh, still running around. She makes an inhuman sound and tackles me to the ground, I landed on the ground with a thud, with her on top of me. People don't get the wrong idea; she has the face of an angel but is the real devil.

"Ally, why, why would you pour cold water when I was finally dreaming of my dream guy. I was about to kis-" I cut her off, by pushing her off me, she loses her balance and falls on her butt.

"Haven, your dream guy neither has a face or exists in real life." I stand up and brush the imaginary dust off me. "I made Chocolate Chip Pancakes, go brush your teeth." I ruffled her hair. She smiles at me. It's her favourite.

"Yes, Mom." She rolls her eyes while smiling.

"Did you just roll your eyes at me, where are your manners, Haven?" I ask, going with it. This is us, we fight, we laugh, we tease each other, but we are always there for each other.

Haven and I go long back, since our diaper days. We have been attached by hips to each other since we met. It was a cliché little story. Her mom and my mom were best-friend, it was natural for us to be best-friends as well. Even though Haven is older than me- only by a month- I have been the sensible of the duo. She is an amazing human being with a big heart, and even if she behaves like a child, she gives the best advice. I on the other hand am a simple person with a logical mind, sometimes cynical, but Haven thinks otherwise.

I sigh and look around our room, we have been living in this Bed and Breakfast for the past two weeks, we just shifted because of our new jobs, we were lucky enough to get a job in the same city. The room is a mess, but hopefully we will move-out form this temporary home in two days.

"Eve, after getting your lazy ass ready please make your bed." I shout. She is taking a shower. I move towards the kitchen and heat up the pancakes and makes some coffee. I move around the house whilst picking the mess made by mainly Eve. Okay, maybe not everything was done by her, I am as guilty as her in the matter.

I am setting the table when Eve comes out of the hot steaming bathroom. She towels dries her hair and pulls a chair beside me.

"Thank you for the food, Ally. I'll make breakfast tomorrow." She says and I scoff. Her and cooking not happening.

"Putting cereal into a bowl and adding milk to it doesn't count as breakfast." I comment.

"Huh! Dude, come on give me some credit. And my cereal tastes amazing as I pour it with love and warmth, you cold hearted bitch." She says. I look at her with humour in my eyes.
