Sleepy Piper

One day after tour, Elliana had gone to Piper’s house to hang out there. She called Piper to let her know that she was coming, but she noticed that she had to call his name every time she tried to talk to her.

When she arrived at the house, she immediately went to find Piper. When she walked to her room, she knocked on her door to see if she was there. She once again had to knock several times to get her attention. When she opened it, Piper didn’t have her make-up on like she usually does.

“Oh Piper, are you okay?” her worried friends asked her.

“I’m fine,” Piper replied. “I’m just…tired.”

“Well Piper, I can return home so you can rest,” her bestie said. “I know that we’ve been busy with tour and I know it’s hard to stay up for a long time with concerts.”

“No no that’s okay,” Piper said fastly. “I’m okay to hang out and do vids!”

After Elliana left to go to the living room, Lev showed up for another monthly celebration for him and his girlfriend. Piper hadn’t shown up despite her clearly saying to Elliana that she would be fine for the day. Lev thought that they had come at the wrong time and that she wasn’t feeling well, but before making a decision, he walked up to her room to ask what was wrong. Found her laying down looking at her phone looking sleepy.

“Hey, Piper are you alright? The group is waiting for you downstairs,” Lev said.

Piper looked at him slightly. “Yea I’m fine.”

“Are you sure? You usually have make-up on and you don’t have that applied,” Lev replied.

“I’m coming don’t worry,” Piper said.

With that, Lev left and went back to the group.

It was about 10 minutes after someone had seen Piper, and now Emily was worried. Then, Piper finally came downstairs much to everyone’s amusement. Emily tried to hug Piper, but she didn’t hug her back. “Oh my gosh, Piper! Are you okay?”

“Yes!”

“Why are you acting so strange?” Elliana questioned.

“What do you mean? I’m just me, normal day-to-day Piper.”

“You are usually cheerful to see us, especially Emily and Lev, but today, it seemed like you changed or had a meltdown.”

“Guys, I’m totally fine! I don’t know what y’all are talking about.”

Everyone then sighed. “Piper if you don’t want us here, you can just say so,” Emily said. “You don’t have to act a certain way just to tell us to leave.”

Piper didn’t say anything and the squad decided to leave. Piper then ran to her room to pick up something and managed to reach the group before they left entirely.

“Guys it’s a prank!” she shouted. “I pretended that I was very sleepy!”

Emily and Lev were both relieved. “I’m glad that it was a prank,” Lev said. “Because I wanted to celebrate our special day even though the 13th passed already, but I wanted us to hang out at Squad World and the usual place we go to.”

“Thanks, Lev,” Piper replied.

“Yea I’m glad it was a prank too,” Emily said to her bestie. “I didn’t want to bother you if you didn’t want company, because I know how easily you get frustrated and I didn’t want to make you upset at all.”

“When did I ever get upset with you Em?”

“Um, when I and Gavin were ‘dating’ last week and you went full-blown nuts!” Emily reminded her. “Do you not remember that?”

Piper looked at Emily looking rather upset.

“Did I say something wrong?” Emily questioned. “Remember the video that we did that premiered on the 11th? Piper?”

“You–did–what?” Piper shouted as she got close to a scared Emily. “How could you? I thought that was just for the video and y’all were pretending to do that! Emily, how just–how could you?”

“I’m sor–”

“No, leave, please! Just leave!”

Emily decided to call Gavin so he could tell her, and Gavin also told the truth.

“I and Emily were only getting you gifts and everything was just a setup to see how you would react. I would never do something like that for real unless you are there because I know how protective y’all are and y’all like to do things together. Sorry if you got upset though. Didn’t mean to hurt your feelings.”

Piper then smiled. “I’m just kidding y’all. But still, if y’all do decide to date, please let me know. Because we get happy and would like to help you out to make the date a success!”

“Well, for now, I and Gavin aren’t doing that. So, you can stop it right there.”

Gavin was surprised. “For now?”

“Well, I meant to say was.”

“Ohh!” Hunter yelped. “Tea!”

“No no no! It’s not like that!”

“Guys, Emily might have a crush on Gavin!”

Emily waved her hands with a ‘no’ gesture. She then took Hunter’s camera and ran away with it still recording to Piper’s room.

“Ok, I’m sorry, give me back my camera back please!” Hunter said running upstairs following Emily. She accepted the apology and the squad went to film a video for the day.
