"You know, if your mom finds out that I fed you pizza I might get in a bit of trouble," I said as I took another bit of my slice.

Justin smiled as he stuffed his face with another slice. We were sitting on the floor in front of the tv with a large box of pizza in front of us.

"Do you want something to drink?" I asked.

Justin looked up at me with chubby cheeks filled with pizza then he nodded.

"Soda?" I asked.

He rapidly nodded before I walked over to the fridge to grab whatever can of soda there was. I brought it back and opened it for him then handed it to him. He took a long sip from it before placing it down.

"M-momma n-n-never l-lets me... so-soda," he said.

"She never lets you drink soda?" I asked.

"N-n-no," he answered.

"Maybe it's because it's unhealthy for you and she wans you to be healthy," I said.

He shrugged and continued eating. He was adorable; it was hard not to smile when you looked at him.

After we finished eating, I threw the pizza box away and sat back down next to Justin as we started watching another one of his favorites, Monsters inc.

He watched in awe and when boo showed up in front of Sully he gasped.

Justin rested his head on my shoulder and I could feel his soft hair rubbing against the skin of my neck ever so gently. I rested my head on top of his.

Within a few minutes his weight had shifted into me. Most of his body was resting against my side and when I tapped on his shoulder he wouldn't respond. He was peacefully sleeping. I leaned back until he was fully resting against my chest.

Guess we'll have to sleep on the floor tonight.

A few hours later

"C-c-Camila..."

Soft whispers woke up me. The instant I opened my eyes I saw Justin's face as he tried shaking me to wake me up.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"We f-f-fell as-s-sleep," he stuttered.

"I know," I said, "now that you're away we should get you to bed."

"O-okay."

I got up still half asleep with him following behind me as we walked into his bedroom. He grabbed his pj's and started taking his jeans off. I yawned as I sat on his bed waiting for him to finish. Once he had his pants on I helped him with his shirt.

"Ready to brush your teeth?" I asked.

He nodded before we started walking towards the bathroom. I put toothpaste on his toothbrush then handed it to him and watched as he slowly and carefully brushed his teeth. I rested my head against the doorframe and my eyes kept slowly trying to shut back up.

Once he was done we walked back to his bed. He got into bed amd looked up at me.

"Okay, good night, sleep tight," I said as I started turning around.

"W-wait."

"Hmm?"

He patted the spot next to him.

"I really shouldn't," I started, "I need to sleep in my room you know? Oh what the heck!"

I slid my sweater off and took my shoes off before slidding into his bed next to him. I reached for the light and turned it off. The instant my head hit the pillow my eyes started closing up again.
