Chapter Forty Seven:
Mikey was up tossing and turning, he thought he was tired enough to sleep, but he was to busy thinking about Sam. When he looked out his window he saw the sun was beginning to rise, so he got out of bed and decided to see if Sam was awake. While walking down the street he was trying to think of something to say, he even had to circle the block twice before he came up with a good enough reason to be at her house.
He walked over to her window and started throwing pebbles at the glass, hoping the noise was loud enough to wake her if she was sleeping, or to at least get her attention if she was awake. He felt excited when he heard the window being opened, but his hopes were short lived when he saw Chad stick his head out and look around.
"What the hell are you doing out there?" he asked still groggy from being woken up for no apparent reason.
"Uh, I was just trying to umm...nevermind." Mikey stammered and started walking away.
"Well I just happen to know that Sammy is - in fact - awake and that her window is the one to you're right." Chad answered before closing the window.
Mikey grinned to himself and grabbed more pebbles, but instead of throwing them to get her attention, she actually got his when she poked her head out her window.
"What the hell are you doing throwing rocks at Chad's window? Is there something going on between you two I should know about?" she asked smiling.
"Sorry, I got the wrong window. I forgot you were over here, I haven't been in there in a while now." he answered smiling as well.
"Well the one time you were...well, you should know, you were there as I recall."
Mikey started blushing and looked down, his head shot up when she closed and locked the window. His first thought it was something he had said that pissed her off, but he couldn't imagine what, he jumped when the front door opened and she stepped out.
"I thought I pissed you off or something." Mikey said sighing in relief.
"Yeah, like I'd be quiet about that." she said rolling her eyes. "I just didn't wanna wake up the parental units." she finished leaning in and hugging him.
They both got quiet and Sam walked into the tiny back yard, Mikey followed her and was shocked to see a little swing-set back there. Sam sat down on one of the swings and Mikey did the same.
"So, why'd you come over here?" she asked starting to swing.
"I dunno, I was bored and couldn't sleep." he said following her lead.
"Oh, so all I do is entertain you?"
"Pretty much."
They both got quiet again and they each started swinging higher, for once it was the comfortable silence. Sam started yawning and Mikey caught sight of it.
"I didn't mean to wake you or anything, you can go back to bed if you'd like." he said looking down at his shoes.
"I'm not getting enough oxygen to my brain, it doesn't necessarily mean I'm tired" she answered matter-of-factly. "Besides, when do we get to spend quality time together saying nothing?" she chuckled.
They stayed out there for a little while more, before Sam just got up and walked to the front of the house again, Mikey was confused but followed her like the puppy he acted like. He followed her into the house, but stopped at her door. She walked over to her bed and sat down, she looked at Mikey and cocked her head to the side.
"I don't bite." she chuckled.
"Yeah, but you're mom's in the other room." he said shifting his weight from one foot to the other.
"Good, I'm not planing on having sex, I think you've done enough. Besides, I'm tired and can only imagine you're tired to, so lets catch some shut-eye before we have to leave for school. Every minute you're standing there, is one less minute we get to sleep." she finished out of breath, she then layed down and faced the wall.
Against his better instinct he felt tired, so he walked over to her and layed down on top of the covers. She soon rolled over and stared at him.
"It's not a 50's tv show, take off you're damn shoes and get under the covers, I'm freezing." she said pulling the blanket out from under him, knocking him off the bed."See? Even fate wants you to cover up." she chuckled.
Mikey sighed but did what he was told, arguing with her was pointless and wasted to much time. He got in bed and she snuggled up against him, he didn't quite relax until her breathing became more regular and he soon fell asleep as well.

Donald woke up at 7 o'clock cause he had to drive Sam to school, he went into the kitchen and started making coffee, he jumped when Chad came out of his room.
"Hey." Chad said sitting down at the table.
"Hey, what are you doing up?" Donald asked turning to face him.
"I haven't been able to get back to sleep since Mikey stopped by this morning."
"When was he here?"
"He was throwing things at my window at about 5:30."
"Do you know if he left or not?"
"No, I think I might've dozed off."
"Oh, alright."
---
Mikey rolled over and noticed that Sam was no longer next to him, he sat up and looked around, he jumped when he saw her sitting at her computer.
"What time is it?" he asked yawning and throwing his legs off the side of the bed.
"It's 7, but you can go back to sleep." she said typing something.
"What do you mean sleep? I've gotta get home and get ready for school."
"Forget school, I heard Chad go into the kitchen, he'll tell Don all about this morning then he'll be nice and let us sleep."
"What are you typing?" he asked getting up and walking over to her.
"I'm talking to an old friend that I haven't seen since her family moved to Nebraska."
"And what are you talking about? Could it be me?"
"No, we're talking about school, she wants to be an interpreter and a paramedic."
"That's cool, what's her name?"
"Sarah, but her nick name is Ducky."
"And why is that?"
"When we were younger she was obsessed with ducks, she had a rubber duck, ducks on her PJ's and little duck figurines all over the place."
"Oh, tell her I said hi." he said walking back over to her bed and covering up.
"Yeah, I will." she chuckled to herself and continued talking to her friend.

Sam signed off and turned in her chair to face Mikey, he was sound asleep again she got in bed with him and watched him sleep. She must've watched him for 20 minutes before she fell asleep.

Donald walked down the hallway and quietly opened Sam's door, sure enough there was Mikey soundly asleep in the bed with her. Donald thought it best to just let them sleep, he wasn't sure when they got to bed, but he'd write a note for Sam to take to school tomorrow and explain that she was sick or something. He quietly closed the door and went back to bed, no way in hell was he going to stay up if he didn't have to work.
A/N: I don't own the screen names Duckyduck or Gothchick, they were just the names I thought would fit. Duckyduck is truely a friend of mine, but I don't think she lives in Nebraska, all the other little facts are true.(as far as I know)
