They all sat in the living room, watching the horror Odd had brought.

he was sprawled out on the single chair, Peter was leaning against the armrest, Aelita was cowering in Jeremy's arms, and Yumi was in Ulrich's.

Truthfully, Aelita was terrified, Yumi was scared, Odd and Ulrich were a little bored, and Peter was just a little scared.

Aelita buried her head in Jeremy's shirt as another thunderclap sounded and a woman in the movie screamed. Both Jeremy and Ulrich were past the point of just turning red. They both thought their cheeks would burst into flame.

Twenty minutes later, the movie ended, much to Aelita's relief.

"Cool. Can we do my movie now?" Peter asked.

"Why don't we take a break?" Yumi suggested. "We could use the bathroom, make more popcorn, and change into our pajamas."

"That sounds good," Jeremy agreed, who had been having to use the bathroom for some time, but not wanting to disturb Aelita.

He went straight to the bathroom while the other boys went to Yumi's room to get their bags, then to Hiroki's to change.

Yumi, Jeremy, and Odd wore their normal pajamas.

Aelita and Ulrich had gotten new ones, while they had never seen Peter's before.

Ulrich's pajamas consisted of a t-shirt with a soccer ball on it, and plain blue shorts to match. Peter's was a green sleeveless shirt with loose fitting camouflage pants. Aelita had on hot pink shorts with a matching shirt that had the word angel scrawled in gold cursive on it.

After a few bathroom breaks and a bit more popcorn, they all curled up on the couch in their previous positions. It was 8:52pm.

The storm was droning down to a light downpour, and the wind stopped howling.

Sometimes they whispered commentary that about parts of the movie that were relative to their adventures as Lyoko warriors.

"It's weird watching zombies when you've kind of already been one," Jeremy whispered to Yumi.

"It must be," she agreed.

"What do you think, Aelita? Aelita...?" Jeremy tried.

He was rewarded with a weight dropping onto his shoulder. She had fallen asleep, leaning almost on top of him.

Jeremy felt himself blush and hoped that they were all paying attention to the movie. No such luck.

"Aw," said Yumi softly.

Jeremy's cheeks glowed as she pointed it out to Ulrich. Peter had already noticed.

"How adorable," Odd gushed sarcastically in a mushy voice.

"Be quiet," Jeremy snapped in embarrassment. "She's sleeping."

Almost as if she had heard, Aelita shifted a bit and nuzzled her head into Jeremy's chest, clinging tightly to one arm.

Ulrich and Yumi grinned, and Odd and Peter put a hand over their mouths to stifle snickers.

Jeremy momentarily wondered if Aelita was doing this purposely for some reason, even though she was asleep. Sighing, he turned his attention back to the movie, but soon fell asleep, head on top of Aelita's in the most cliched position imaginable.

With a mischievous smile, Yumi closed her eyes and snuggled closer to Ulrich, causing him to redden and smile bashfully. They were both soon asleep.

"Sleepy heads," Peter muttered. "Don't you think?" he asked Odd. "Odd?"

The blond was sprawled over the chair, snoring loudly.

Peter huffed and rested his chin in his palm. His eyelids got heavy. No matter how many times the brunette convinced himself he wasn't tired, his eyelids still got heavier, until he fell asleep with the rest.

Around 3:30 in the morning, Peter shifted and hit the remote, turning the TV off.

It was really a cozy picture, all of them on the couch and chair. Aelita and Yumi were snuggled into their respective boyfriends, and Peter was leaning on the armrest. Odd was snoring loudly; it was a wonder that none of them woke.

"Breakfast, sleepy heads," Aelita laughed from the kitchen.

Odd stirred, sniffing wildly.

Ulrich rolled his eyes as Yumi yawned and rubbed hers. Peter looked almost as eager as Odd, and Jeremy was still asleep.

"Pancakes!" Odd exclaimed as he ran into the kitchen.

Yumi giggled as Peter got up to follow.

"I guess we'd better go, before Odd inhales them all," Ulrich said as he and Yumi got up and stretched.

Aelita stood, wearing her pajamas and a big grin, holding a frying pan.

Odd was already starting to gorge.

"Wow, Aelita," said Ulrich as he took a bite. "I never knew you could cook."

"Me neither," Yumi said, eagerly eating her own, as did Peter.

"Thanks, Odd taught me," she replied proudly.

Everyone (except Odd, of course) froze. Peter had a stuffed mouth and looked very much like a chipmunk, Ulrich was frozen in mid-bite, and Yumi slowly put her fork, along with her pancake bite, back down on her plate.

"I'm kidding!" Aelita busted out laughing, having to put the frying pan on the stove as she doubled over. "It's funny how one sentence can cause so much panic."

"Not funny," Ulrich shook his head as he kept eating.

Odd just seemed to notice the statement. "Hey, what if I had taught her?"

His only answer was laughter.

"Well, good morning sleeping beauty," Ulrich grinned as Jeremy walked into the kitchen, hair very unruly and still not fully awake.

"Nice hair," Odd snickered.

"Nice hair yourself," Jeremy yawned back, stretching magnificently.

"Hey, what's that supposed to mean?" Odd asked worriedly, feeling and apparently trying to straighten his hair.

"Good morning Aelita," Jeremy greeted her, ignoring Odd. "You made the pancakes?" His eyes strayed to the frying pan.

"Yep," she smiled proudly, handing him a plate.

Jeremy thanked her and took a bite.

"Wow, Aelita, this is really good. I never knew you could cook."

Aelita practically glowed with happiness and pride as she flushed under the praise. Sure, she was happy that the others liked it, but Jeremy was the only one she really sought to impress.

Her growling stomach reminded Aelita that she had yet to eat some pancakes herself.

After breakfast was over, they all took showers and changed. Then, they watched the movie they had fallen asleep on last night.

"Aw, it's over already?" Odd whined as the credits scrolled across the screen.

"My parents should be home in a an hour or so," Yumi sighed. "Jim will get suspicious if we're not at school soon."

With sighs and much reluctance, they all went up to get their bags.

"This was really fun, Yumi," Aelita said earnestly as they approached the Kadic gates, having parted with Peter at Yumi's house. "My first sleepover was really fun."

"Yeah. I had fun too," Jeremy admitted.

"I'm glad you had fun guys."

"Oh yeah!" Odd exclaimed.

"It was awesome!" Ulrich said. "Too bad it has to end."

"I know... Maybe we could have another one, sometime," Yumi suggested.

"I don't know if I could survive another," Jeremy snorted honestly.

Everyone laughed.

A bit late, but... There! Since this idea is obviously not original, you are free to do that which you will with it.
