"What about parties?" I asked.

"We all know you two are way too lazy for that." He laughed, and left with my mom.

He wasn't wrong.

Soon Bailey and I fell asleep, and it was dark in the house other than the glow from the tv. I didn't know if anyone was home, but the only sounds were coming from the tv and Bailey's snoring. I checked my phone, seeing a couple messages.

L: Staying over at Soph's, see you tomorrow ugly

Me: good stay away

Jonathan: Do you work tomorrow?
J: Do i work tomorrow??

Me: why don't you know your own schedule?
Me: no i don't work tomorrow
Me: im not sure if you do
Me: dummy

With that, I decided to go to bed. It was late. Getting up, I threw a pillow at Bailey and she grunted.

"If you want to sleep in a bed tonight you better come now because I'm locking my door." I called.

She groaned and got up, dragging her feet up the stairs.

Bailey and I slept in till 4 and it felt great. I had no idea who was home or what anyone was doing, but it felt good to be unbothered. I grabbed my phone, looking at the time. Bailey got up and stretched.

"Good afternoon." I laughed.

"What time is it?"
