Naia's POV
Gabby made grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner. I didn't realize just how hungry I was until the smell reached my nose. My mouth started to water as Gabby slid the sandwiches onto one plate.
"Has everybody washed their hands?" Gabby asked. Matt and I nodded and before Gabby could say anything else, Matt grabbed a grilled cheese from the plate.
"Matt!" Gabby scolded and I giggled as Matt shrugged and took a bite out of the sandwich.
Gabby rolled her eyes but smiled as she turned to me. "Anyways, help yourself.
After dinner, we did just as we said and cleaned up the entire apartment. We put the plates in the dishwasher, even if they didn't look dirty, put the cushions back on the couch, swept up the broken cups and tossed them out. Within an hour and and half, the apartment was back to normal besides missing a few cups.
"Whew, am I pooped." Gabby said as we all collapsed on the couch. "Do you have any homework Naia?"
I let out a little groan but immediately stopped myself since I didn't want to be rude. The Samuals would have beaten me for doing that but Gabby and Matt didn't do anything besides smile a little bit.
"I hated homework. That was the worst part about school." Matt said, turning the T.V. on. "It was bad enough to have to sit through six or seven hours but then to have to lug home another two hours of work, it was awful."
I grabbed my backpack from beside the door and went through it, making a pile next to it of the homework that had to be done.
"I don't have a lot to. Just a math work sheet and a paragraph about Independence Day." I mumbled as I zipped up my bag and tossed it by the door.
"Do you want me to turn off the television?" Matt asked, looking up. I shook my head.
"I'll be okay."
I took a seat between Matt and Gabby and used my science textbook to do my homework on. The math sheet was a review so I breezed through that one. The paragraph was a little more challenging but I got everything done in about a hour.
"Done." I announced as I stood up to put my homework back in my backpack.
Gabby smiled, "That was fast. You're one smart girl."
"Naw, it was easy stuff." I replied honestly, "I'm not very smart."
Matt wrapped an arm around me when I sat back down. "I don't believe that, you're very smart."
"I agree." Gabby said, tickling my foot. I squealed a little bit and yanked my foot away. Gabby laughed at me.
"She's ticklish Matt!" Gabby said and tickled me again. I started laughing, trying to get away from Matt who had also started tickling me now.
"Stop." I coughed out, still laughing, "It tickles!"
Matt and Gabby laughed but stopped tickling me. I let out a sigh of relief.
"Do you have a shift tomorrow?" I asked, although I had a feeling the answer would be no. Matt and Gabby shook their heads.
"Nope, we have all day with you." Gabby said, planting a kiss on my forehead.
Matt started to flick through the channels on T.V. though there was obviously nothing good on. "Is there something you wanted to do?"
"No, not really." I answered, watching as the channels changed on the screen. With a full stomach and all of my homework done, I was starting to become sleepy. It had been a long day.
I leaned against Gabby, letting out a content sigh. My eyes closed as sleep started to overcome my tired body. What time was it now? I had no idea, but it was definitely late.
"We'll find something to do tomorrow." Matt told me. I nodded but didn't open my eyes.
Within moments, I was asleep.
