Chapter 16

The following morning Melody bounced into Becki's bedroom and proceeded to jump on her bed till she woke up. Grabbing a pillow Becki threw it at Mel.

"Go away"

"nope" Melody grinned, jumped one more time and landed cross legged on the bed.

"Ugh, Mel what time is it?" Becki groaned

"Eight"

Becki's response was to pull the sheet over her head.

"Oh no you don't" Melody pulled the sheet down and continued "Do you have something to tell me?"

Becki glared at her friend "Ask me when I'm awake"

As Becki was pulling the sheet back over her head John walked in.

"Hello" Melody grinned

John raised an eyebrow as he looked at Melody "Hi! Why are you grinning at me like that?"

"No reason" Mel looked at Becki who was now completely under the sheet "See if you have better luck waking her up" Melody jumped off the bed and practically skipped out of the room.

John watched her leave with a smirk on his face. Once she was gone he turned to bump on the bed and grinned. He walked over to bed and slid under the sheet behind Becki, he wrapped his arm around her and pulled her against him.

"Good morning" he whispered in her ear

"Why are you awake?" she grumbled

"Good morning John" John mumbled then grinned as Bex turned around to face him

"Shut up" she said smiling as she snuggled up to him.

"Ok" he smiled as he hugged her to him

"You woke her up yet?" Mel called from the hallway two minutes later and nearly jumped out of her skin when Randy appeared at her side.

"Are you always so perky in the morning?" he asked rubbing his eyes

Melody stared at his bare chest for a moment then replied "Unless I'm hung over, yes!"

"Five words? An actual sentence? I'm impressed" Randy smirked as Melody stuck her tongue out.

"I'm hungry! Want some breakfast?" Melody asked as she bounded back into Becki's room, Randy laughed and followed.

Becki groaned and rolled away from John when she heard Melody charge back into the room. Both John and Randy laughed as Mel started jumping on the bed again.

"Bex get up"

"Someone gag her" Becki grumbled as she buried head under a pillow.

"What's all the noise? Its eight in the morning people, why are you awake?" Matt stood in the doorway rubbing his face.

"Exactly" Becki said from under her pillow.

"Who wants breakfast?" Melody asked jumping off the bed and heading to the kitchen.

"Food? Why didn't you say so?" Matt followed Melody.

Randy watched with a smirk on his face and went to follow them, before he left he turned to John and said "I like her in the mornings!"

Once John heard Melody banging around in the kitchen he pulled Becki back to him.

"Will no one let me sleep?" she murmured as she turned and buried her head in his chest.

"fine, go to sleep I'll go see what Melody's killing in the kitchen" he tried to move from under her but Becki threw her arm across his waist.

"You can't go anywhere, you're my pillow" John laughed as she tightened her grip round his waist, it didn't make any difference, he could still move if he wanted too….but he didn't.

"When was it decided that I'm your pillow?"

"Since I sort your crazy ass schedule out, the least you can do is be my pillow!" Becki looked up at him and smirked.

"Unless your gonna return the favour….don't get used to this!" he replied with a smile. Becki didn't say anything, she just snuggled up to him and got comfy.

Around five minutes later John had decided he didn't want to go back to sleep, looking down at Becki he grinned and poked her in the side.

"Hey! What was that for?" Becki turned onto her stomach and looked up at John.

"Get up!"

"When did you become bossy?" Becki laughed and tried to wiggle away as John poked her in the side again "Stop it!"

"Not until you get up" Becki continued to try and wriggle out of his grasp, as he reached for her she rolled onto her back, so he rolled with her and pinned her to the bed.

"How am I supposed to get up now?" she asked trying to free her wrists from under his hands.

"Suddenly I can think of better things to do!"

His lips were inches from hers when Randy coughed from the doorway, with a smirk on his face he said

"Melody can't find anything she would like to eat! So get up we're going out for breakfast"
