Geez is he still awake, he's excited about the Tooth Alien's visit but he's going to be exhausted in the morning if he waits up all night, I should go check on him.

It was late-night in his house on Knowhere and Rocket had just gotten settled ijto his big bed when he heard RJ still up and talking softly only his super-hearing could hear the cub talking and calling out making Rocket sighing getting up leaving his room entering RJ's seeing the male-cub hiding taking deep-breaths knowing he was tired needing his rest to charge up.

"Rocket Junior it's bedtime, not playtine, what the heck are you doing." he asked

"Hey daddy, just waiting for the Tooth Alien, but he's taking his time." RJ replied to him.

"Hmmmmm mayge if you go to sleep, he might come, plus I need to rest." Rocket told him.

"Oh okay, was I being loud." he asked his dad.

"A little but it's okay." Rocket told him as he was tucking him back ijto bed kissing his furry head leaving him be heading back to his room, sensing sokething was in the house invisibleto him smirking as it went to RJ's room as it was the mysterious visitor the male-cub had been waiting fir coming over to the cub's bed reaching under the pillow gently putting the fang in his satchel pulling outva gift package leaving before the cub stirred, or Rocket walked in or sensed him leaving the house grinning.

The next morning, Rocket was in the kitchen making breakfast, seeing Nebula join him wondering why RJ wasn't up like a hurricane like normal hearing Rocket telling her the cub had been up late surprising her, wondering why he'd been up late.

"He was up late waiting for the Tooth Alien, he might be cranky when he gets up." he told her as they were drinking coffee.

"… Morning daddy, Mama Bula… " RJ said yawning and tired bothering Nebula seeing him drinking chocolate milk through a straw and eating Groot Morning pancakes but sounding annoyed making Nebula and Rocket exchange a look knowing it might not be a good idea for him to go to school abd it was pre-school so missing a day wasn't the end of the world goingto the cub's room finding apackage under his cub's pillow putting it on the desk, for him to find later after he woke up then carrying a grumpy, tired RJ into the room tucking him in tellijg him a story. but kissed his head afterwards.

"He's out for the couht, but hope he'll be in a better mood when he wakes up, maybe he can go to after school Temple if he wakes up on tije." he told Nebula making her sigh knowing that might not happen knowing what happened when she tried wakijg her furboys up from naps when they didn'tvwant to.

RJ then stirred later that afternoon, forgetting he'd stayed up late and had been so tired, his dad had let him stay home from school noticing a package on his desk going over to it realising who it'd had came from opening it seeing a toothbrush, stickers and Go-Bots makijg the male-cub grin knowing the Tooth Alien had visited knowing he had the other loose fang that would be coming out soon, deciding to not think about this yawning.

He then was feeling hungry leaving his room but smelt dinner was cooking and guessed Nebula was helping his dad washing his paws which he knew he had to dombefore having dinner entering the kitchen relieving Nebula knowing food would draw him out or wake him hoping it would help wake Rocket up, because he'd taken an nap seeing said male entering feeling RJ hug him.

"Groot evening, hehehe." Nebula told them smirking
