INT. CARTER HOUSE - 5 AM

Neal is waking up. He looks at the clock beside him. 5 a.m. Softly, he turns his head. Morgan lays sound asleep beside him.

Neal taps her.

NEAL- Morgan....you up?

Morgan with her eyes still closed.

MORGAN- No.

Neal laughs a little.

NEAL- Come on you are up, and I gotta be at practice in like a hour.

MORGAN-(eyes still closed) okay bye love you.

Morgan puckers her lips.

NEAL- Morgan.

MORGAN- Neal.

Neal kisses her neck.

NEAL- get up. Don't you want me to have some extra motivation in practice?

MORGAN- Neal we didn't finish filming until like ten last night and then your daughter had me up until almost midnight because she didn't like her hair.

NEAL- did you fix it?

Morgan sits up and glares at him. Neal clears his throat.

NEAL- I mean um....what she had you up that late?

MORGAN- Neal I'm telling you once she turned eight it's like she's a different person she doesn't like anything I do. And all she's been talking about is this Zoey girl from that Disney show.

NEAL- Come on she's just at that age, don't take it personally.

Morgan lays back down.

MORGAN- My son doesn't act that way.

NEAL- oh he's your son but Alexis is just my daughter.

MORGAN- Yes.

Neal laughs and lays down and hold her.

NEAL- you know what would make you feel better.

MORGAN- not sex because that's how they got here in the first place.

NEAL- We had so much fun.

Morgan turns to him.

MORGAN- We did.

They share a kiss until:

WILLIAM- Dad are you up?!

Morgan laughs.

NEAL- No scrub I'm still sleep.

WILLIAM- then how are you talking?

Morgan hits Neal.

MORGAN- and don't call my son a scrub ever in your life.

NEAL- What's wrong Will?

WILLIAM- I was just wondering can I go to practice with you and uncle K?

NEAL- You know you can't sit in with this type of practice kiddo.
