I'm gonna keep this short cos I know most of you will just skip it and go straight to the story anyways... THANKS FOR THE SUBS AND PLEASE REVIEW SO I KNOW WHAT TO CHANGE AND OR FIX :D
"Briiiiiiiiiiiing!"
"Please shut up Alek," I grumble and tuck my head under my pillow.
"You've got to admit, I make one hell of an alarm clock."
"I hear those things are in great demand," I mutter from under the cloth. "Why don't you go to Best Buy and see if someone will take you?"
He plops himself down at the foot of my bed. "Eh, I think you'll do. Ready to keep me?" I don't have to look at his face, that smug smile is etched into my brain and I know he's wearing it now.
"Wipe away that stupid smile, Alek," I say while flailing my arm in an attempt to hit him. "No one's falling for it around here."
"That's only because you aren't looking," he teases, grabbing away my pillow with lightning speed.
"I hate you." I retort sleepily, trying to pull my covers over my head. Just as I'm about to emerge into darkness, its pulled away.
Alek stands over me waving it in my face. "You wish that was even possible," he chuckles. "Up and at em, kitty." Ever notice how British people over pronounce their double t's? Kit-tee. I'd giggle if I wasn't so exhausted. "It's time for another glorious night of me kicking your tail till tomorrow!"
So much has changed yet he remains exactly the same. My mom's near death, the funeral of the Mai's leader, Jasmine slowly recovering, my kiss saving Brian...none of it seems to faze him. I'm glad. At least one of us is remaining sane.
I toss my feet over the edge of the bed and take in a deep yawn. Then another. And another...
"Stop it. You're making me tired." He complains, stifling his own yawn.
"Great. Then maybe I'll finally get some sleep tonight."
"Cute. Let's go. Time to teach the Uniter how to fight."
He leaps up and in a flash stands outside of my window. Without glancing back he begins to pounce
across my neighbors roofs.
I pout, staring at where he was.
"I know how to fight..." I say defensively then sigh. Everything but my emotions.
I quickly change out of my pajamas and get ready to meet at our training field.
Another exciting day in the life of Chloe King.
