Napping Buddies Novels & Stories

When I woke up and opened my bedroom door, I came face-to-face with my buddy, Mason Lodge, who had clearly also slept in. We stared at each other for a solid second, then headed downstairs in a great mood. The moment we stepped into the living room, the housekeeper, Wanda Smith, frowned. "Mr. Seth, Mr. Mason, why are you still here? Why haven't you fled?" I calmly sat down on the couch and poured myself some coffee, while Wanda paced anxiously in front of us. "Is it because you don't know where Ms. Stella and Tanya have gone today?"

He pulled Ryan aside and hissed, "We had a deal. I get mornings. Janus gets afternoons. You get all of Saturday. That was the agreement." Ryan crossed his arms, indignant. "You two hog six days a week. I get one. An extra night isn't going to kill anyone." That's when I found out — the three of them had a group chat and a schedule.

I whispered, "You are so loved already, little one. You will have two extraordinary godmothers who will shape your life in the most incredible ways." The sun began to set as we made our way back to my apartment, the anticipation of an evening filled with horror movies and laughter filling the air. Natalie and Laila carried bags of snacks and drinks, ready to indulge in the ultimate movie night. As we settled onto the couch, cushions arranged in a cozy nest, I couldn't help but feel a sense of contentment wash over me. This was the perfect way to spend an evening with my two best friends.

Eighteen years ago….. Kaleb Luthor hurried on. He was on an errand for his father, walking down the gravel path that cut from his house when his eyes caught something. He stopped and stared for a moment. It was his sister's friend, Sasha. Sasha Sullivan. She was hanging upside down from an old tree, her skinned knees hooked over a low thick branch. She was swinging back and forth, so her long braids dangled like ropes. The whole time she hummed while she blew the biggest pink bubble he had ever seen. He didn't know you could hum and blow bubble gum at the same time. As he walked past her, there was a loud pop.

Luke said as he walked off to help Randal, who was being tormented by William, which was also not an unusual occurrence. The two men were the eldest of the friendship group and had been in the same high school. Randal and William were opposites, yet somehow ran in the same circles. Strangely, they had become friends even if Randal would jokingly call the other man the ' bane of his existence.' Meanwhile, the ladies chatted amongst themselves and almost missed the sound of a car parking just above the beach. They turned and noticed the cherry red SUV and its slender blonde occupant, who struggled with a large sun cap and beach bag. The figure worked a moment in the warm summer wind.

“I don’t know why I keep on missing this bed no matter what,” They gave them the same room just like always, and a big bed where they’ll both lay on and cuddle, watch movies till they fall asleep and wake up the next day to leave in a hurry. “I’m going to take a shower first.” Matthew called out as he entered the bathroom immediately. Elena laid there with her eyes still on the bathroom door. Everytime they came here and slept on the same bed, she didn't think about it or give any meaning to it. They’re just friends and she was comfortable with him, what could go wrong?

“Well I’ll tell you what. I know I’m not as good as your Mommy, but I’ll nap with you if you want?” He nods again, and I give him a squeeze, trying to pour all the love in my heart into his small body. I feel a tug on my dress, and I look down to find another pup hovering at my side. This one is a little girl around four, and she’s looking up at me like she’s not sure if I’m real. “Can I naps with you too?” She asks shyly, “I have bad dreams when I sleeps alone.”

"Nothing's going to happen. Marco and I are going out to dinner, that's all." "Right." She pursed her lips. "Well, if I were you, I think I'd still have a power nap. Put your head down for twenty minutes, take the edge off things. I'll come in and wake you up, if you like. Make sure you don't sleep too long. Or better yet... Ooh, yes." She appeared decidedly animated now. "You should have a caffeine nap. Rufus swears by them when he's got a late night gig." Rufus was the somewhat unlikely name of her latest boyfriend, a lean and wiry twenty year old who wore even more make up than Roxy herself and played drums in a local band. "A caffeine nap?" I repeated, not comprehending.

And the whole class started hooting for us. I smile at my boyfriend and then look to the left to see Javier glaring at Jacob hard, very hard.. The other thing which I didn't notice in the past 4 days was that Caleb and Jonathan were also In this class. Jonathan as usual was beside Jacob on his right as I was on his left. Whereas Caleb was sitting beside Javier. And just not sitting he was actually resting his head on his shoulder snoring peacefully. When did they get all Buddy Buddy? I was looking at Caleb with an Amused expression when my eyes met with Javier. He mouthed, "He Is too heavy.." with a cute pout and I made an Aww poor baby face, which made him roll his eyes but I didn't miss th

"She's my wife. If we're really friends, show her some respect. And divorce? Not happening." Noah's buddies rolled in, all fake chill, trying to play peacemakers. "Come on, we've been boys forever. Don't blow it over some girl." "Didn't she say she'd marry whoever stepped up at the wedding? You only did it 'cause you felt bad, right? It wasn't real." "Seriously, dude, you could pull any girl. Don't make things awkward for all of us." Every word hit like a slap—like I didn't even exist in the convo.
