"Wakey wakey!"Chris called from the end of the bed, a pillow in hand

       I opened my eyes in time to see a pillow fly at me, I squeezed them shut and retracted my head into the warmth of my blankets before it hit me.

"Get up, Common, I made food"

"You can't cook" I grumbled

"Fine, I helped make food"

"Funny, I don't hear the fire alarm"

"Fine, Max made food, I grabbed some plates"

"That sounds about right, although, how many plates did you break?"

"Very funny, just get up and come downstairs, it's blueberry pancakes by the way"

       That had me jumping out of bed and running past Chris to the door, on my way out of the room I realized I was in the only guest room in the house. I tumbled down the stairs and skirted into the kitchen, glancing at the clock I was notified that it was almost noon. Max was standing by the table, a plate of pancakes in hand, maple syrup in the other, he placed them down and turned to greet me.

"Morning" I smiled happily

       Max stared at me a moment longer before smiling back

"Good morning, want some food?"

"Sure do"

       I was already sat at the table with Max by the time Chris got to the kitchen, a smile plastered on his face.

"You seem happy"

"I am, I've got pancakes, and I'm pretty sure that they're the only pancakes that aren't your moms and didn't end up burnt"

"Hearty har har, very funny Roy"

"I know I am, why else do you think I'm friends with you? Someone's gotta make sure you've got enough funny in your life"

"Pass the pancakes and stop making fun of me" he grumbled

"Fine Blondie" I passed him the plate and he shook his head, sending me into a fit of giggles

"Am I gonna get my pants back any time soon?it looks like you're planning on living in them" Max questioned

       Confused I looked down at my lap, Sure enough I was still wearing his sweats. Well, of course I was, why would either of them have put me in pjs last night?

"Yeah sorry, I'll give them back after I'm done eating"

       Seemingly satisfied he nodded. The three of us finished our food with light talk and then tidied up a bit, I ran upstairs and changed out of Max's sweatpants into a pair of my own, red ones, with a blue sweater to go with it. I quickly folded my hair into Theo braids before grabbing Max's sweatpants and returning them to him.

"What do you wanna do today?" Chris asked as we lounged on the couch

"I'm not sure, you got any ideas?"

"Well, I was thinking about going on a run, you can come if you want"

"Nope, I'm alright, you go, I'll stay here"

"And do what?"

"Play games"

"Well you do that, I'll be back in an hour and a half"

"Man, that's a long run"

"Not long enough"

       Chris left the room and a few moments later I heard the front door slam shut. I sighed and pulled a controller out before hooking up a game of Halo. I spent the next little bit on the game, on the couch, by myself. That was before Mr Shirtless decided to join me on the couch. He threw his arms over the back of the couch and lazily watched me play my game. Although, admittedly, I wasn't playing all that well anymore.
