James woke with a start, rolling out of his bed. His elbow smarted, but he could deal with it. There was screaming. James listened a moment, wondering if something bad had happened. He stood, legs bent arms out, ready to move as required. He smiled, relaxing when he heard the giggles within the screams, realising it was Lacie and Amber, no doubt giving the flatmates a morning wake up call. He cast a look to his phone, seeing several notifications were already waiting for his attention. He reached for his phone but let his hand drop before he could pick it up. He knew himself well enough to know that if he picked up his phone, breakfast would be long forgotten.
James rubbed the sleep from his eyes before padding into the main living area. His hair was a mess and he could could barely figure out what two plus two was, but he didn't really mind when he heard Amber giggle. He gave Lacie a mock disapproving look.
"Hey there tiger,"he ruffled Amber's hair, sitting at the table. The smell of coffee was gradually getting stronger and James was debating if he really wanted a cup. If he didn't get one now, he definitely would later. Caffeine was an incredible discovery as far as James was concerned, even more so when deadlines were rapidly approaching. " what's my favourite girl up to today?" He asked Amber, letting himself forget work for a moment.
