44 Pancakes and Nightmares

Chapter 44: Fluffy Stacks and Nightmares

Zoe woke up with a kink in her back, groaning as she stretched and rolled out of bed.

"Should've stayed on the couch," she muttered, popping her neck as she headed to the bathroom.

Teeth brushed and hair somewhat tamed, she walked into the living room. 

Quinn sprawled across the couch, hugging a pillow while a few others lay scattered on the floor, kicked away in sleep. 

They snored loudly, like a chainsaw. Zoe had tried covering her ears, even considered sleeping on the balcony, but she couldn't leave Snacks alone.

Snacks snuggled up against Quinn, pressing close while keeping an eye on everything. His eyes glowed faintly as he tracked Zoe's movement.

She paused, taking in the sight of Quinn snuggling a pillow, face half-buried, with Snacks nestled beside them.
