Unlike her brother, Lily was the furthest thing from a night owl. She enjoyed going to bed early and rising early and it was necessary seeing that she taught a early morning yoga class. Lily could sluggishly stay up in the evening but even then she was relatively lifeless, sometimes cranky, and it took awhile to get her to really begin to act like a normal person. She had already been falling asleep when she heard Max enter the apartment. Good, her brother was home and safe, now all she had to do was fall asleep.
That wasn't a problem either, Lily was happily resting with no weird nightmares to speak of when she heard a faint call. She ignored it and rolled over but then felt her body shaking, the call getting louder and more insistent. "No," Lily grumbled into her pillow, wrapping her arms around it and holding onto it tightly. But the call continued and so did the shaking until finally Lily's brain made a spark of recognition. Max was calling for her.
She had to fight off the urge to continue sleeping and opened her eyes to the glow of... a green light saber? Yeah, it was definitely her brother trying to wake her up. "What Max? What's wrong?" she grumbled as she sat up in her bed with her curly hair a tousled mess.
