Will spellcheck tomorrow


Waking up to feel a weight on me is what alarms me first this morning, until I realise that weight is Pat.


Still sleeping after his emotional night, I decide to let him sleep a while longer. Looking around, I can't help but notice the blankets that are wrapped around our bodies.


The warm fuzzy feeling flows through me at the thought that one of the guys did that.


Looking down at the sleeping boy on my lap, I can't help but look over his sweet face. This is by far the most relaxed I have ever seen his face. Combing my fingers through his hair, I enjoy watching his mouth curve into a sublte smile.


A door opening breaks me from my trance as I see Remy quietly walk out of his room, silently shutting the door for Edsy. When he looks up, he sees me looking his way from the couch, jumping a foot in the air.


I can barely hold my snicker at his startled reaction, making him playfully glare before he sits on the arm of the couch next to me.


Watching as he gets lost in watching the rarely peacefully sleeping Pat, I can't help but see the love he has for the kid that we all share.


"I don't think I've ever seen him look so relaxed when he sleeps." Remy whispers, careful not to wake Pat up.


"I know. I just hope he doesn't have a sore back today." I lightly chuckle.


He goes to make us both a coffee before returning to his seat, handing me the hot cup. Mumbling a "thanks" before drinking, I can't but close my eyes for a moment and just take all this in.


Working with people I like, food daily with struggle, friends that are quickly becoming my family, and class work that I'm picking up quickly.


"I'm going to go grab some breakfast for everyone." Remy whispers to me, leaving after I nod his way.


As soon as the door closes, Eddy emerges from his bedroom.


"Morning." He grumbles, making a beeline for the coffee.


He does a double take at Pats figure on my lap, smiling over at me when his eyes land on my fingers coming his hair.


"So, I thought today we could go see a movie? The four of us?" Eddy says once his coffee is finished.


"That sounds good to me." I smile at him. "How about Deadpool 2?"


At the mention of the movie, Pat opens his eyes amd sits up. Looking at me for a moment, his face splits into a smile so big it melts your heart. Of course, to add to his joy, Remy steps in with breakfast.


"Come on let's dig in." He tells all of us.


Taking a moment to stretch my back, I grimmace as I hear it pop a few times.


"Shit! Sorry Ari, I didn't mean to sleep on you." Pat splutters out.


Waving him off, I join the boys for breakfast. When we're all finished and satisfied, we go to our rooms to change.


Walking with Pat down to the computers, we spend a good few hours here doing as much school work as possible.


Not realising how much time has passed us by until Remy and Eddy tell is to pack up for half an hour. Gumbling as we do so, we join the other two for lunch. Agreeing in a time for the movie, the boys leave us to continue our work.


"Hey, how are you going today." I gently prod Pat.


"Honestly? The besy I've ever been. I like that I got some of my stress off my chest, and honestly I slept better than ever." He beams, a whole new level of happiness radiating from him.


Nodding with a smile, we keep going until It's time to go get freshened up fot the movie.

Walking into the cinema with three men at my side certainly drew attention, but it was nice to do a normal activity.


Remy and I get the tickets, while Pat at Eddy go get the snacks for everyone. Meeting up at the ticket collector.


I end up sitting between Remy and Pat, with Eddy on his other side.


A weird sense of giddiness washes over me at the thought of being in an actual cinema to see a movie. You really can't help but appreciate it.


The movie starts and I find myself unable to barely blink as I'm blown away by it all.

"That was incredible!" I practically shout on our way home.


Pat bouncing next to me as we talk about what we loved from the movie, which was suggested because of him.


We both have a skip in our step, and a smile of faces.


I try to ignore the holes being burnt into the back of my head by Remy, refusing to let my brain  entertain the idea.


When we're all back in the room and calm, Pat suggests showing me a TV show.


The boys all agree before we all settle in for a relaxing nighr, or so I thought.


Right up until I realised we're watching  zombie show, called The Walking Dead I think.


Okay, I'm definitely going to be addicted to this show.


I love zombies!
