The poker game didn't end until midnight. Finally, Blaze got stickers on his face too.
Alison boldly took out her phone, surprising both boys. "Blaze, Luis.”
She called out their names and then quickly took a photo the moment they turned around.
Luis cocked an eyebrow. "Let me take a look."
Alison looked at Luis suspiciously. "I'll send it to your phone."
Blaze couldn't help but chuckle. "You're getting sly."
Alison blushed and sent the photo to Luis.
It had been a long time since she stayed up so late. She was a good student who kept good hours. The light in her room went out before eleven every night.
Now it was 00:30, and Alison yawned several times.
Blaze noticed it and said, "Go back, wash up, and sleep."
Alison refused, reluctant to leave the mess for Blaze to clean up.
The three of them worked together to clear out the trash, which was not too much. The adults had put the racks away. All that they needed to do was put away the unopened drinks and get rid of the garbage.
They finished the work in 15 minutes.
Alison could barely keep her eyes open. She yawned, went back to her room, had a shower, and hit the sack.
At 1 a m., the Lynch family's villa was all quiet.
