2006:

After staying up until two in the morning, watching the entire second season of Spongebob, which my friend had rented at the DVD store, Emma and I somehow managed to wake up somewhat early the next morning.

Since today was her day to make breakfast, I helped her out, cutting up vegetables for a salad, while the blonde cooked some bacon and eggs.

Emma turned back to face the older man, who was reading his newspaper. "Grandpa, wake Mikey up for me."

We waited a few minutes, but my boyfriend was taking forever, so we started to eat breakfast without him.

"It's about time!" Emma huffed, leading me to look behind me, after taking another bite of my egg.

Mikey was quiet, still wearing his pajamas and carrying his small blanket, as he sat down. His messy hair and sleepy expression made it obvious that he had just rolled out of bed.

"Morning, Grandpa. Morning, (Y/n)." He took one look at his eggs, before puffing his cheeks. "Emma, I told you I like my eggs over easy with the yolks crushed."

"Maybe you should've done it yourself then," I giggled.

"Toss out that old towel already!" The blonde girl rolled her eyes, as she watched her older brother stretch it in his hands. "You've been fiddling with it since you were little!"

I honestly think it's adorable.

"No, it's my life. Pass the soy sauce."

Suddenly, the doorbell rang, causing Emma to jump, taking out her ponytail before trying to fix up her hair.

"I'm here, Mikey!" Draken shouted from outside, just like he does every other morning.

"Go wait in my room, Draken!"

"I ran into Takemitchy on the way. Can he come in too?"

"Sure."

Just as we finished up at the table, I got up to help my friend with the dishes, but was pulled away by the other clingy blonde.

"Hey!" Emma shouted. "We're supposed to be having a sleepover here!"

"You had her all night; it's my turn now."

Without even asking for my input, my boyfriend led me to his room, where Takemichi and Draken were waiting for him.

The younger blonde was marveling at the boy's room, while the tattooed male spoke to him. "Well, most of the stuff belonged to Shinichiro."

"The bed's the only thing that's mine," Mikey chimed in.

"Mikey!"

"Quit yelling; it's too early for that."

My boyfriend sat on the couch, so I stood behind him, brushing out his messy, golden locks, and tying it back into his signature half up, half down hairstyle.

He claims that he can't do this himself, but I've literally seen him do it before. This is just his subtle way of making me play with his hair without him having to ask.

The First Division captain seated himself on the floor, as he asked about the guy who Kakucho had asked him to save the other day.

"I see." Mikey thought to himself for a second. "Izana Kurokawa... The guy who approached me."

"What? You've met him?" Draken questioned.

"Yeah," my boyfriend nodded. "So, he's Tenjiku's leader, huh?"
