Tristan was woken by the sound of static coming through the public announcement system.
He groaned as he noticed the sun was not yet up, and retrieved his watch from the nightstand.
4:53AM, it read.
He threw the watch back on the stand and rolled over for another seven minutes of sleep before his alarm went off.
The static stopped and music started to come on.
"What the…?" Marcus complained. He shoved his pillows around his head to cover his ears and buried himself under the covers.
Then a familiar voice started singing.
"The night we meet I knew I…NEEDED YOU SO.
And if I had the chance I'd…NEVER LET YOU GO."
Marcus, Tristan and Kate were now all sitting up in bed and wondering what was going on. The singing continued.
"So won't you say you love me?
I'll make you so proud of me.
We'll make them turn their heads,
Every place we go.
So won't you please, BE MY, BE MY BABY
Be my little baby, MY ONE, AND ONLY BABY
Say you'll be my darlin', BE MY, BE MY BABY
Be my baby now, MY ONE AND ONLY BABY
Wha-oh-oh-oh."
Tristan looked down at Kate and she shrugged in return.
"I'll make you happy baby
Just wait and see."
Their door crashed open, and their stood Rory in her pyjamas, with Madeleine and Louise behind her, singing back up.
"For every kiss you give me,
I'll give you three.
Oh, since the day I saw you,
I have been waiting for you.
You know I will adore you,
Til eternity.
So won't you please? BE MY, BE MY BABY."
Louise and Madeleine continued singing without Rory. Tristan had taken the microphone out of her hand and threw it away.
"Hey, free mic!" said Marcus, catching it. He took over Rory's part in the song.
Tristan took Rory's face in both his hands and kissed her.
"What a wake up call," he said as they broke apart.
"Thought I'd let you know how I fell about you. Oh, and I'm sorry Kate," said Rory as she looked down at the smiling girl. "But Tristan's mine!"
