I was woken up by the sound of my phone. I grunted at having an alarm ring in my head. I switched it off and went back to sleep. But it rang again and again and I repeatedly switched it off.
On realising that someone had pranked about with my phone, I opened it to find that there were no active alarms and I hadn't snoozed any. I scowled at the phone at having disturbed my sleep. The sun was just starting to rise and it being a Saturday, I wanted to sleep in.
Then the upside-down phone rang again and I turned it around. Seeing Aidan appear on it made me wish for a curse to befall him.
"What?!" was the first thing that came out of my mouth as I put the phone in speaker mode.
"Whoa," he said in a half-laughing voice. "What's up?"
"You just broke my sleep. Do you have any idea what you have asked in return?"
"A death wish, I suppose?"
"A torturous life before death came about. What was so important that you were calling me for centuries?"
