"Does she sleep a lot even at home? " Irene asked.
"Since she got pregnant her sleeping hours increased " Arthur said
It was already dark they were seated around the fire as Alex and Ralph made barbeque.
Rose had fallen asleep beside Arthur.
"Usually pregnant women became tired easily so they sleep a lot. It's not easy to carry another human being in you " said Ralph who brought the ready barbeque to them.
Arthur excused himself and took her to there room, then joined them again.
"So Arthur when do you plan to tie the knot with her?" Alex asked.
"Her baby bump is now visible how will she fit in a wedding gown, " Irene asked.
"Rose wants to do it when the baby is born " Arthur exclaimed
"The little angel will be able to witness its parent's wedding," said Alex.
As they chatted, Sean arrived looking exhausted.
"Next time when you decide to take a trip please tell me before the real day. I had to finish all the important work before I could come " He complained.
Arthur patted his shoulders saying "All you do now days is complain, you should use this chance to relax and rest okay "
Sean moved to the fire making himself comfortable he took a piece of beef from a piece not knowing it was Irene's.
"You exhausted pig, what do you think you're doing " She screamed shocking them.
"I just took a piece don't be stingy," Sean said.
"Do I look like I love sharing, put it back right now " She commanded
Sean had never met such a woman in his life. She was aggressive and angry.
Her brown eyes looked at him with anger. It was when he noticed how perfect her body was.
Her hair was curly but short, her lips were so red they looked like they were bleeding. His eyes moved down to her chest which was matched perfectly with the rest of her body.
Before he could finish his analysis, she snatched the stolen piece from his hands and put it back on her plate.
"Crazy pig " she murmured at him.
Sean was stupefied at this encounter. Arthur came closer to him and whispered into his ears.
"She's the crazy one and Rose bestie, so I can't take sides "
Don't think every woman is like the ones you date who are stupid and naive giving In so easily" Alex giggled.
Sean had to wait until they finished to get his share. He was so angry that he went to his room after without saying anything more.
After putting out the fire, they retired to there rooms.
"Am happy my brother met your sister they really complete each other " Alex said when they were In there room.
"My sister is happy and safe that all I care about and your brother is doing a wonderful job " Ralph commented.
Arthur slid under the warm covers wrapping his arms around Rose who was already in deep slumber. He took in her familiar scent as he slowly dozed off.
In the late hours of the night, Sean heard someone at his bedroom door. He woke up wondering who it was. They all had got individual rooms so why was someone at his door.
The door opened and a slender tall feminine figure appeared. She moved to the bed where Sean was.
He switched on the lights, his eyes recognizing the intruder.
"What are you doing in my room ?" he asked.
"This is my room " she answered.
Sean moved to the door telling her to leave.
"You got the wrong room, yours the one next to this. Now leave my room, you spoilt my mood the moment I saw you "
Irene moved around the room, landing on the bed. She crawled into the covers showing no signs of leaving.
Sean came closer and tried to pull her off the bed.
"Get out of my room you crazy woman "
But Irene pulled him instead, his face directly landing on her breasts. She wrapped her legs around his body not letting him go
Sean felt his body being squeezed he tried escaping but her grip was strong.
"Let me go or I will scream " Sean protested.
"Why are you so stubborn today my dear teddy bear., let's go to sleep " Irene mumbled
Sean was more surprised when he heard her call him a teddy bear. Her eyes were still shut indicating that she was sleepwalking.
Sean realizing the situation shouted "What! don't tell me you sleepwalk and in all the rooms you choose mine "
Irene didn't respond but pulled him closer as she drowned back to sleep.
"Why me ?" he cried.
He was too overworked to quarrel with a sleepwalker, He let her hug him as he also fell asleep
Rose woke up to the smell of breakfast, Arthur wasn't I bed it seemed he was already up.
She washed her face and headed to the kitchen.
Alex was preparing the table as Arthur and Ralph prepared breakfast.
"You both look good in aprons," she said.
Arthur smiled and gave her a morning kiss.
"How did you sleep butterfly ?"
"Peaceful " Rose said.
She greeted her brother and Alex. Not seeing Irene she knew she was still asleep.
"Irene is a heavy sleeper, I don't expect her to be awake right now," she told the others.
They sat down to eat but in the middle of it, they heard a scream from one of the rooms.
"That Irene's scream, why us she shouting," Rose said.
They all moved to the source of the sound, which wasn't her room but Sean room
"Did Sean come last night ?" Rose asked
"He arrived when you were asleep "
They opened the door which revealed Irene on top of Sean hitting him as she called him a pervert.
Rose and Arthur pulled them both apart.
"Why are you hitting him ?" she asked Irene.
"I woke up and found his hands around my waist" Irene screamed
"I never did such a thing, it was you who came into my room last night wrapped your self on me but now you're calling me a perver". Sean defended himself
Rose asked her friend " Why are you in his room, perhaps did you sleepwalk last night?"
"But it looked like my room, " Irene said embarrassed
"This is his room yours is next after his " Alex explained
Irene pulled away from Rose 's hands and rushed out of the room.
The rest followed her leaving Sean alone in his room.
He was so annoyed , his face was red from her slaps. She was really a crazy woman he thought.
