Andy woke up the next morning, his face mashed into a pillow. He blinked a few times, taking in his apartment. Bill was passed out on the floor, his body spread very awkwardly on the ground. Looking around, he spotted Adley, curled up in the tightest ball possible on their recliner seat.
Still in his sleepy state, Andy realized it was only six in the morning. Still enough time to get around and do something with the day. Andy had always been a morning person… well, sort of. He wasn't jubilant by any means but he definitely didn't like sleeping in. He felt like sleeping in just took valuable time away from him.
Then he realized that he had no clue how he got to the couch. Last thing her remembered clearly was dancing in Kristen's apartment. The pieces seem to come together quickly though. He must have fallen asleep in the car because that's were everything was permanently black.
Swinging his feet over, Andy sat up, rubbing his eyes. He stood up, going to Bill first and waking him up.
"What?" Bill said in his sleep, his face pushed into a pillow as well.
"Time to get up." Andy informed him.
Groaning, Bill rolled over on his back, his limbs spreading wide. "That time already?"
"You bet." Andy replied, headed over to his cousin.
"Want me to make pancakes?" Bill asked, still sprawled out on the ground.
"Sounds delicious," Andy said, watching as Adley slowly awoke, "but I had doughnuts in mind."
Bill made a sound of approval. He got up, revealing his messy hair and clothes. Pointing towards the shower, Andy demanded he go first.
"Thanks Andy." Bill smiled warmly, hiking his pants up on his hips.
"Yeah, yeah. I'm only letting you go first because I know you get fast showers." Andy said, straightening the room up so it was presentable.
"Okay, I'll be back in a bit." Bill jumped down the hallway and into the bathroom.

The three were now showered. Standing in the doorway, everyone made sure they had everything they needed before they left for the doughnut bakery.
When they made it there, there were thousands of doughnuts out on the racks. Each were freshly made that morning and it amazed the boys. The only time they ever visited the bakery was late in the afternoon so barely anything was left and the stuff that was left over was stale.
"Wow," Bill whispered, sticking his hands in his back pockets.
Andy nodded, laughing. "I think we need to come here earlier from now on."
Adley agreed by nodding, staring wide-eyed at the treats. "This is my heaven."
Bill chuckled, watching Andy pick out the doughnuts. The three split the bill and left with their sweets.

Bill was behind the two as he walked into to the apartment. They ventured into the living room while had stopped in the kitchen to drop of the car keys. He had a glazed doughnut clasped between his thumb and forefinger. It was still whole since he hadn't gotten a chance to dine on the sugary object.
Walking into the kitchen, he met up with Andy and Adley. The boys must have paused sometime in the hallway. Whatever it was it was funny since they were chuckling, still looking in the direction the thing was.
"What's so funny-"
"BOO."
Bill jumped, his eyes squeezing shut. At first, he was terrified. But then he recognized the voice.
"Seth! You asshole. What the fuck are you doing in my apartment at six thirty in the morning?" Bill questioned, turning around to push a pointed finger in his chest.
Seth's mouth turned up in the corner and he put his hands up, as if a police officer would have asked him to. "Jason brought me here against my will."
Bill's mouth scrunched up in anger. All he wanted to do was simply punch that bastard across the face. But he knew he wouldn't be granted that wish. So, instead, he pushed roughly on the man's chest. "Fuck off." He growled, heading back into the kitchen.
Adley and Andy meanwhile watched the exchange in bewilderment. They were confused because of two reasons. Reason one, Seth was in their apartment, claiming that Jason was too. Reason two, Bill just responded very rudely to him. It was the first time Andy actually saw Bill angry when he conversed with Seth. Normally it was playful banter. But that was pure anger.
"What'd you do?" Andy mouthed at Seth.
Seth shrugged, moving into the living room to no doubt find Jason. "I'm not quite sure."
"I haven't seen Bill actually snap at someone in forever, with the exception of the homophobic assholes." Adley added, following them.
Shrugging again, Seth looked at Jason.
"Oh well. It's morning. Everyone gets crabby once in a while." Jason then turned his attention to Andy. "Morning."
"Why are you here?" Andy blurted out. The glaze doughnut in his hand was becoming cold and sticky. The icing was running down his fingers.
"Not exactly the response I was looking for-"
"Sorry," Andy moved forward, pressing a sticky kiss to Jason's lips.
Laughing, Jason pulled back, "Thanks for the breakfast."
Blushing, Andy took another bite of the doughnut. "That reminds me. Doughnuts for everybody in the kitchen-"
"Nope, living room." Bill suddenly appeared behind them, a white box in his hands. He set it down on the coffee table so everyone had access to it.
The group sat around the doughnuts, prepared to chat.
"So, why up so early?" Andy asked again.
"I felt like it." Jason responded, grabbing a doughnut from the cardboard box. "Thanks again for breakfast, guys."
"No problem." The three muttered in unison.
Adley had taken the recliner and Andy and Jason occupied the other. The only seat left for Seth was on the couch next to Bill. He sure as hell wouldn't let Bill's attitude affect him or embarrass him so he plopped down next to him. He watched out of the corner of his eyes the boy go stiff but ever so slowly he relaxed.
Taking another hearty bite of his doughnut, Andy moaned in pleasure. "These are so good… Where's your doughnut?" He asked Bill, motioning at the box to tell him to have one.
"It's in my stomach." Bill said and denied another doughnut.
Andy simply shrugged, shoving the rest of the doughnut in his mouth. He brushed his hands together to get the crumbs off while he tried his best to chew the huge piece. "What are we going to do today?" Andy asked around the sweet.
Jason shrugged, "Let's just hang out here for a bit." He suggested.
That made Andy quite suspicious, but he pushed the feeling away as soon as it appeared. "Okay. Sounds fine to me-"
"Shit. Weren't we going to go to the store so we could get food?" Bill asked, throwing a thumb in the direction of the kitchen. "We're running low my friend."
"Oh, right! I guess you and I could go do that. Does anybody want to come?" Andy asked, looking around as Bill left to retrieve the keys.
The three left, Adley, Seth, and Jason, all shook their heads no, smiling apologetically.
"Okay," Andy stood up, blushing when Jason lightly smacked his ass. "We'll be back in an hour or so." He moved to walk away but was pulled back by the wrist. Gasping, he tried his best not to crash into Jason so he ended up basically straddling him.
"I love you." Jason said grinning, trying his best not to laugh.
Andy growled but pressed a kiss to his lips, "I love you too. Bye." Andy turned around, spotting Bill in the hallway.
"Let's go!" Andy gave him a big, excited grin, running past him.
"Behave!" Jason called after him.

Jason and Seth awkwardly sat in silence, watching television. Bill and Andy were gone for about thirty minutes and the boredom was killing them. Adley meanwhile had started dozing off, his head slipping out of his hand every now and then but eventually returning to its place.
Then the door cracked open.
All three looked towards the door, waiting for the two men to walk through. But instead that got a short, dark haired, curly headed woman.
"Hey Mills!" Adley said excitedly and jumped up from his seat to hug her.
She grinned happily, hugging him back. "Hey, are Bill and Seth here?"
"Nope. They left about half an hour ago to get some groceries." Adley informed her. Then he pointed his finger in the direction of Jason and Seth. "That's Jason and that's Seth. Jason is Andy's boyfriend."
Mills moved forward and shook hands with both boys. "It's nice to finally meet you two."
"It's nice to meet you too." Jason said, suddenly extremely excited.
"I brought the tapes." Mills smiled, pulling out a few VHS tapes out of her bag.
Adley looked at her in astonishment. "Mills… I don't think Andy will want you to show him those."
Mills rolled her eyes, turning back to Jason. "What are sisters for? Okay, I have one when we went to the carnival, when I forced them into women's clothing, when they pole danced-Oh, that one's my favorite. I highly recommend the pole dancing." Mill smiled evilly, handing over the tape.
Jason was about to grab it when it was ripped out of Mills' hand by Adley.
"I can't let you show him these…" Adley said. He began backing into the corner with the tape held tightly against his chest.
"Adley, hand it over now. You know I'll get it from you anyway." Mills threatened, her hand held out in front of her.
Adley seemed to think that over. But he shook his head no, dropping to his and curling up in the corner. Seth and Jason watched in amusement as the petite brunette sat on top of her cousin, forcing him into submission. She got the tape and pulled Adley up; forcing him into the chair he was in earlier. Opening her bag again, she pulled out a roll of duck tape.
"Mil, you're fucking kidding, right?" Adley asked, pulling his hands out of her grasp.
Shaking her head no, she grasped them again and quickly wrapped his arms together. "If I let you go you'll just go call Ando and Bill."
The door cracked open again and in came an unrecognizable man carrying a lot of luggage. He smiled and nodded at Mills, "Hey babe. Here's our stuff… Uh, what are you doing to him?"
Mills shrugged, pushing Adley down in the seat when he tried to get up. She hurried to his clothed legs and wrapped the duck tap around the left leg and the leg of the chair. Mills did the same thing for the other one.
"You can just set the stuff in here. Next to Adley." She said, nodding towards her cousin. The brunette walked over to the TV, looking for a place to put the tape in.
The muscled, model-looking dirty blond walked over to Adley, letting the luggage fall to the ground to his left. Smiling apologetically at Adley, he extended his arm to shake hands. Adley slowly took it with two, since they were tied together. "I'm sorry about her. I'm Clayton, her boyfriend."
"I'm Adley, her cousin, sadly."
"Adley, don't make me put tape around your mouth." Mills said, not bothering to turn around. "Ah! Here it is."
"Mills, you can't show them these. Andy will blame me since I was the one that brought them up. He'll hate you!" Adley spluttered off, trying any reason not to show the men the clips.
Mills sighed dramatically, walking over and ripping a piece of tape off. She placed it over Adley's mouth, smoothing it out. "I told you I'd do it."
Adley glared daggers, lifting his hands to flip her off. Mills rolled her eyes and turned around, grabbing the remote.
"Hey, Clay, if the boys come home then block them." She threw the tape in his direction. "Use this if you have to."
Clayton was about to object when they heard a loud thump. He turned to his right, realizing Adley had struggled so much that he fell backwards in the chair. Moving to help him up, Clayton dropped the tape but Mills quickly said no. Straightening out, the man looked conflicted.
The video started and the four were in a bar. The camera was panned at Bill, Andy, and Adley, meaning Mills had the camera. The bar was nearly empty from the point of view of Mills, but when she turned around there were tons of girls, all in skimpy outfits. They were strippers. When she turned back, Bill lifted his beer.
"The advantages of having strippers as friends!" He chuckled and took a swig, His voice sounded odd, like he had an accent.
Andy chuckled next to him. "I'm waiting till you go up there and dance." His voice sounded odd too. Just like Bill's.
"What's that?" A new voice said. The camera panned around to reveal a tall blonde. She was extremely tan and had purple lingerie. "You guys wanna dance?" The accent was clear now to Jason. She had a thick southern accent while the Bill's was slightly heavier and Andy had a very light one.
"No thanks, darlin'." Andy responded, raising his beer to the girl. "I like where I'm at."
"I want to dance!" Mills exclaimed, handing the camera over to Bill. Bill turned the camera so it followed Mills. She fixed her hair and ran her finger across her lips to smooth out her lip gloss. "Here I go boys!"
Mills had gotten up on the bar with help from the blonde and the song Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leppard suddenly turned on. The blonde seemed to be giving her pointers when Bill turned the camera to himself and Andy. "How pissed would she be if I didn't record this?"
Andy laughed, "Really pissed…" and then he got that look that Jason recognized as the evil idea look. "Give me the camera." Andy said, smiling. He placed it so the viewer was looking at Mills again. The screen shook when Andy and Bill began climbing out of the booth with Adley, and they joined her up on the bar. Bill pressed his back against Mills while she clung to the pole shaking her bum. Andy and Adley were dancing together, shaking their hips slightly.
"Wait, wait!" The blonde stripper said. "Like this!" She slapped her hands on her waist and rolled her hips around while flipping her hair.
"What the fuck is going?"
Everyone turned around to see Andy and Bill standing in the hallway looking royally pissed. Andy had been the one that spoke up.
Mills laughed, "Just showing some footage."
Andy walked towards the TV and instead of taking the tape, he wouldn't be able to anyway because Mills was blocking it, he just ripped the plug out of the wall.
Andy shook his head, limply throwing his hand in the direction of the door. "Out. Let's get out." It was clear he wasn't angry, just aggravated.
