Nick never thought he would be in this predicament.

Never.

It wasn't even funny.

Ellis smiled at him. "Hey" he smiled. "Y'know, I know a song like this."

Nick groaned. "What are you talking about?"

"You'll know it once I start singin'."

"Please refrain."

"There were three in the-"

"Goddamn!"

"-bed an' the little one said-"

Rochelle, who was on the other side of the annoying hick giggled, basically encouraging him, only to end up saying, "But I'm smaller than you Ellis-"

"How about you lie in the middle an' then you can push us out of the bed?" Ellis suggested.

"NO!" Nick grouched. He was comfy and wanted sleep! Was that too much to ask?

"I think that is a great idea Ellis. I will push Nick out." To which Ellis and her chuckled.

Nick groaned. "Goddammit."

But before any singing and pushing of comrades out of the bed could happen, a grumpy, sleep-deprived Coach yelled out from across the hall. "Quiet ya'll, I'm tryin' to get some sleep in here!"

Which made Ro and Ellis laugh all over again.

At least Nick was safe.

For now.
