We're a Family

(2) Good Morning to You too!

Julie's POV

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

I shut my eyes tight and pull my pillow over my head to try to silence the obnoxious noise disturbing me from my sleep.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

"Ugh!" groans Morgan loudly, "Make it stop!"

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

Finally having enough, I turn back and slap my hand down on the stupid thing to make it quit. I roll out of bed and make my way to our bathroom to brush my teeth. I go through my whole morning routine, minus getting dressed, and find Moe still cuddled up in her blankets. I pick up my pillow and throw it at her. "C'mon we have training today, and we only have half an hour to get down stairs for breakfast."

"We'll take the elevator." she sleepily mumbles back. I chuckle.

"Moe, you have to get dressed." I point out taking out my training gear from my bag.

Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock! Knock!

"Brush your teeth, comb your hair, make yourself not look like an alien..." I trail off as I answer the door.

"Hey! Is Moe here?" ask Kling.

"Yeah." I say moving so she can see. "She won't get up." Meghan shakes her head before running and jumping on top of her best friend.

"MOE! GET UP!" she shouts making me laugh. "C'MON MOVE IT ALREADY!"

"Kling! Shh!" yells back Morgan. Meghan gets up and yanks the covers off of Moe's bed. "KLING!!!"

"What?" she ask back innocently. I roll my eyes as I go back into the bathroom to change. I slip on my shoes and grab my stuff before heading down knowing that Meghan will take care of Morgan. As I wait for the elevator, Christen comes out of her room.

"Hey Pressy!" I greet.

"Hey Jules!" she says with her huge smile. Only her, Mom, and Mama are allowed to call me that. Well really only her, but I can't exactly tell them no. "How has your day been so far?"

"Fine except that Moe won't get out of bed. How's your morning gone?"

"Good, but what do you mean she won't get out of bed? Is she alright? Do I need to get Tobin?" she ask worriedly.

"No! She's fine!" I say quickly to calm her down. "She's just being lazy. Kling's down there now dealing with it."

"Oh alright!" she says smiling again. The elevator finally comes so we take it down to the bottom level where all the dining rooms are. We walk in and I immediately get called over by Mom.

"Ma'am?" I ask when I get to her.

"Good morning JJ. Did you sleep good? Oh here, Mama got your food." she says and asks while handing me a plate.

"Thanks and yes I slept good." I say a little annoyed. She knows I like to get it myself and they need to stop worrying about me sleeping. It's my body. I know when I need rest.

"Hey no need to get an attitude." states Mama not taking her eyes from the paper. I look down and roll my eyes earning a disapproving look from Mom.

"Sorry Mama." I say sheepishly, uncomfortable under the glare of my mother.

"It's alright kid. Just go eat. Love you." Whatever she's reading  must be really interesting because she still hasn't looked up.  

"Love you too." I mumble walking away to Press' table. "Those two get on my nerves."
