It was Christmas morning, it was like 3 O'clock in the morning, and I was the only one that was awake, (which was actually unusual because Dad is usually up), so I did what most rational people would do at that time of the morning and tried to get back to sleep, (which was actually a shocker because usually I just give up on sleeping), but that went to shit as soon as Mikey woke up 20 minutes later and came into Soph's and my room.

"Ro!"

"What do you want now Mikey?"

"Well is it time to get up yet?!"

"No, not yet you div, it's twenty past three in the bloody morning"

"Oh shit I didn't know that Ro"

"I didn't think you did know that to be honest with you here Mikey boy"

"So can we watch a movie then?"

"Fuck no Mikey, because that would literally wake everybody up you dumb arse and it's twenty past three in the fucking morning"

"Oh, what about if we play a game?"

"Mikey, that's a no for the exact same fucking reason, why don't you just go back to sleep like a normal person would you arse?"

"Because I'm all jittery and jumpy, like a little kid is when they are on a sugar rush after eating sweets"

"Oh fuck my life"

Mikey just started giggling at me, because apparently my lack of sleep was fucking hilarious to him, the little shit, so I sassed back, as I'm an Addams.

"Oi!, stop being a little shit Mikey"

"But I can't do that, I'm an Addams Ro"

"Oi, us Addams are stubborn and argumentative, we are not a bunch of little shits"

"Hey!, screw you and your smart arsery Ro"

"(Snorts), I might actually steal your line there Mikey boy"

"Well to be honest I actually stole the line from Uncle Georgie to which he probably stole it from Dad, because Uncle Georgie usually is the smart arse and he also struggles with comebacks"

"Yeah actually that sounds about right knowing Uncle Georgie"

Mikey then purposefully put his Afro in my face to see if he could annoy me anymore than he already had, which yes he did, because little brothers are like that sometimes and there's nothing that we can do about it.

"Mikey, I swear to the fucking Spaghetti Monster that hides under kids beds that if you don't remove your Afro from my face I will actually push you out of my bed"

"Alright alright alright, don't need to be so Grinchy"

"You obviously don't remember how Uncle Georgie was on Christmas Day, do ya?"

"No I don't, I just remember that we used to get Dad up at like 6 O'clock in the morning"

"Of course that's the part of Christmas that you remember Mikey, (sighs), ok well we always woke Uncle Georgie up at like 7 O'clock in the morning, which is actually a reasonable time considering we were kids, and he'd always be like 3x more Grinchy than I am right now at almost half past 3 in the bloody morning"

"Yeah, I guess I would be insulted too if somebody called me Grinchy when Uncle Georgie is like that"

"You don't say Mikey"

We chilled for a little while, as you do when it was too early to wake anyone else up, as it was still considered the middle of the night, you know.

It was about 5 O'clock in the morning, Mikey had fallen back to sleep while I stared at the ceiling, fucking typical, Mikey didn't get the insomnia genetics and I did, that is totally not fucking fair.

I heard footsteps going down the hall, which wasn't strange but it still had me on alert as the flat had been quiet, though it turned out to be Dad anyway.

"Hey Kiddo"

"Hey Dad"

"He didn't wake you up, did he?"

"Nah Dad, you do remember that I got my insomnia from you?"

"Yeah I remember, I was the one that got you that appointment-"

"Only because I made you get one for yourself too"

"Well maybe, but I do get a little bit more sleep than I used to get"

I chuckled, I wanted to ugly snort, like the proper gross sounding snorts that hurt your ears, I don't know why, but I decided against ugly snorting because I didn't want to wake everyone up with ugly snorting, as that would be weird as fuck.

"Oh yeah, so hilarious Kiddo"

"You love me though"

"Yes I do Buba, that I do, how have you been sleeping recently?"

"It has actually been better recently, I woke up at 3 o'clock today rather than 2 o'clock"

"That's good to hear Sweetheart"

"Dad"

"Yes Bambina?"

"Merry Christmas Dad"

"Merry Christmas Baby"
