Trigger Warning: Food mention

The two adult groaned as they got up from the sofa. Ever since Logan moved in, they'd been sleeping there most nights. Not just Logan, I literally meant both of them. To put it short and sweet, their back feel like shit.

It was around midnight and they'd just woken up from their nap after dinner. Yvette completely left them alone apart from the blanket that wasn't there a few hours ago. She's a good kid, really, usually.

Logan wrapped the grey blanket over his shoulder as he blindly followed Patton to the raven haired man's room.

Patton shrugged as he moved over, allowing Logan into the quilt, "Goodnight...." Patton told him as his eyelids forced themselves shut.

"Mhm..." Logan replied, snuggling into the warm blanket.

Time Skip! The morning!

It was a Saturday, so Yvette and Patton didn't need to get up early like they usually did. But that occasionally made... complications when a certain someone came over.

By a certain someone, I meant Roman. After he'd gotten the key to their apartment, he sometimes came over during the weekened and bash into Patton's room, effectively and immediately awakening him but Logan was usually asleep in his room until Roman left.

"GOOD MORNING WINTERS!" Roman yelled, slamming Patton's unlocked bedroom door. He'd been locking it every night he went to bed recently so Roman didn't barge in. Yeah, today he forgot that.

His back ached as he lifted his body up from where he was sleeping, "Roman..? Didn't I lock my room?"

"Probaly not..." Logan mumbled nearby.

"OH HO HO!" Roman gasped, also hearing Logan's mumbling.

Patton flopped back onto the bed as Roman hopped onto the bed as well, back first, "So, what's the beans bitch?"

"Language-" A yawn caught Patton off guard and off word.

"So what's Logan doing here?" Roman raised his eyebrow at his bestfriend who was being crushed by Roman's body weight.

Logan crawled up, patting his face before realising he wasn't wearing his glasses, "I live here Roman," He mumbled quietly, getting his legs out from underneath Roman.

"WHAT?!" Patton slammed a hand over his mouth, shushing him quietly.

He began grunting in resistance, "Don't wake Yvette," Patton glared.

As Roman dragged Patton's hand off of his mouth he began to ask the questions, "When did you move in anyway?" Roman asked, laying back down across the bed.

"A while ago, my room is upstairs," Logan replied, putting his glasses on when Patton passed them to him. He then pointed upwards to where he slept. He'd only recently finished unpacking though.

Roman raised an eyebrow, clearly thinking about something, "Then why are you in Patton's bed?"

The two men gazed at one another, slowly remembering the previous day. A large flush of blush apeared on both of their faces before they were able to speak, Roman did.

"Did you guys fuck?" Roman stated before slapping his own hand on his face, rolling over in a ball and giggling.

"No-" Patton smally replied to him, "We just sometimes fall asleep...together?"

"Awww that's more adorable than what I thought,"

"Yes, we all know what you thought," Logan almost rolled his eyes to the back of his skull there. "Now, can I get up? Breakfast is necessary," he continued, still trapped with Roman sprawled over him and Patton.

Roman practically rolled onto the floor whilst Logan just walked over him, "Are you both coming?" He asked before leaving the room.

His hair was messy and he was still wearing the buttoned up black shirt from yesterday and trousers, except they were half way down his bottom so he had to put them up. His tie was extremely loose around his neck and could have strangled him in the night, but didn't. Some of his shirt buttons were undone, and by some, I mean like the first three, the shirt was basically hanging off his spotted shoulders. He was not looking pretty that day.

Roman and Patton both stood up, following Logan into the kitchen and getting cereal.

Patton, unlike Logan was looking a lot better. I mean, it wouldn't take a lot to look better than Logan right now. His curly hair was pointed everywhere and his cardigan was nowhere to be found, same with his glasses. Generally he looked like the previous day.

Roman however, was wearing a nice looking red and white jacket with some trousers for once. He was also just wearing a black shirt, you know, going a little bland today.

They all sat at the breakfast bar where everyone who lived there usually ate for dinner and lunch and began eating. Roman usually did this often so they were slowly, yet quickly running out of the cereal Logan and Roman liked, they really needed to get some more.

"So what's been up in your lives," Roman inquired whilst also shoveling a bunch of cereal into his mouth at the same time.

"Well there was bring your parent to school day in my class," Patton replied after he swallowed the cereal chunks in his mouth unlike someone.

Shoving another load of cereal down his throat then swallowing Roman finally spoke, "How was it, you know since you're their teacher," He did an air jab at Patton when he said that.

"I didn't, the class doesn't know," Patton told him as Logan happily ate his cereal in his own little world.

"Aw that's sad, she didn't have anyone to bring," Roman sympathized, making an ugly face as one last spoon of cereal was put into his gob.

Patton shook his head, "No, Logan went instead, it was like a farewell to the shop,"

Roman slurped the milk left in his bowl as he nodded slowly, "That's sweet of you dude," He told Logan, elbowing him playfully in the rib.

On the other hand, Logan just glared at him before chuckling at himself, "There was a discriminatory parent whom caught us though," he said, pulling his shirt up and it inevitably fell right after.

"Caught you..?" Roman mumbled, picking up the finished bowls, bringing them to the kitchen.

"Logan can explain, I need to wake up Yvette, it's 11am," Patton ducked out of the room, going to wake up his daughter.

Logan gave a longing look to the man leaving the room as his freckled face grew redder than it was before, "So Logan-" Roman pecked an eyebrow teasingly at him.

"We were just hanging out at break since someone asked an...invasive question," Logan turned his head, avoiding eye contact with Roman, "She may have seen me....sitting on Patton, you know like pals?-" He awkwardly said.

"Pals?" Roman held his head in his hand in a fit of laughter.

"Good morning..." Yvette mumbled, walking into the room the  to the kitchen to get food.

Patton sat back at the breakfast with Roman on the other side of the table in the kitchen, "Oooooo what's funny?"

"Logan-" Roman gasped loudly recieving tired concerned looks from everyone, "He told me-"

Patton turned red after a really big attempt to stop, "You know...we were just being...pals?"

Roman cracked up even more to the point even Yvette started laughing but was spilling milk and cereal everywhere instead.

The two of the hour just looked at each other. One didn't know what the hell they were laughing about. The other knew exactly why and could barely look Patton in the eye without almost falling off the chair as well.

"Well....okay...?" Patton eyed up the two in the kitchen whom had crashed into each other multiple times. They had yet to fall onto the floor yet, well apart from the milk and cereal. That was splatered everywhere on the floor soaking Yvette's and Roman's socks.

Soon Logan began joining in, folding into himself with each loud giggle. With Patton just sitting there, extremely confused.
