Steve didn't want to admit it, but he'd tried his hardest to stay up until Toni got back from her date. It was stupid, he knew, but he just wanted to make sure she was okay afterward and be there. Besides, he liked her company, and most everyone else was gone, so he didn't have anyone to talk to.
Of course, he forgot that Toni can stay up much later than him, and even though she'd left for dinner around eight, she probably wouldn't be back until at least one in the morning. (Or not at all, if what he'd heard about hte future was true. But he didn't like to think about Toni and that guy, the baseball player, doing that.)
So, unfortunately, he conked out around eleven on the couch in the living room, watching The Goonies on television. The call gave him a fright when it woke him, and he nearly rolled off the couch.
"Hello?" His voice was deep and scratchy. He was having some sort of dream about Toni and chocolates. Weird.
"Toni?" Steve sat up, more awake. "No, it's fine. Are you alright? What happened? Is there an emergency?" Vaguely Steve knew t hat if there were an emergency, it wouldn't be Toni calling.
