Video games with Noah didn't seem like a very good excuse to stay up until nearly five o'clock A.M. at this point- and all Rex wanted to do was go back to sleep. Lie in his cozy cot and dream about absolutely nothing- that dead sleep that made you feel holy-hell-fantastic when you woke up. The one thing that had him awake? His best-friend-maybe-something-more, Noah, saying his name around ten times, voice growing louder and louder to wake the slumbering E.V.O. up.

"Rex. REX. Wake up."

Rex saw nothing but the back of his eyelids, but he knew the blonde was standing in the doorway, waiting for a response. With a groan, he shifted to face the doorway without opening his eyes even a crack.

"Whaaaat?" He drew his voice out, feeling like none of this was really happening.

"I'm going to go out."

"Okay," was the sleepy E.V.O.'s response, shifting on to his back and stretching his arms over his head, only for more comfort, in no way ready to actually get up.

"Are you coming with me?" It sounded like Noah was growing a little impatient with the half asleep Rex, but the Hispanic knew he wasn't angry.

"Too tired." Too tired to move, too tired to open his eyes. Too tired to form full sentences.

"Alright, I'm going then. Bye…" A pause from his best-friend-maybe-something-more. "Love you."

"Love you too, goodnight." Rex jolted mentally as he realized what he had just said.

Goodnight? It wasn't nighttime. Ay, dios mio*, was he tired.

Before Noah even had the chance to laugh or even respond to the half-asleep-teen, Rex blurted out,

"I am SOOOOOO tired."

Not so often bare hands moved to the teen's tan face to rub at his eyes and forehead, grumbling nonsense to no one in particular. His eyes remained shut, his body refusing to grow more aware of his surroundings. All that received was a chuckle from Noah, before Rex was almost instantaneously asleep again, only to wake up at two o'clock P.M. with no reconciliation of the exchange besides the words spoken.

How embarrassing.


*My God

A/N: This actually happened to me when my mom tried to wake me up yesterday, except the conversation was slightly different. xD I mentioned it to the lovely Bramblerose4 and we both decided to write about it :) I absolutely adore her, she's the sweetest, kindest person ever and I'm so glad I got the chance to get to know her! So this is OBVIOUSLY dedicated to her!
