Last fall, I had my first sleepover.
I slept over at my friend Steve's house.
It was so much fun!
"Jim, here is your sleeping bag.
Have fun!" said Mom.
"See you tomorrow, Mom," I said.
When I arrived at Steve's house, Steve said hello.
"Hi, Jim! Let's go outside to rollerblade."
"Okay, let's go," I said.
"Hey! Watch me turn around!" said Steve.
"Yeah! Watch me jump!" I said.
Later, Steve's mom called us into the house.
"Come in! Time to eat pizza!"
"This is really yummy!" we said.
After we ate pizza, we played a computer game.
"Come on! Come on!" we yelled.
Then we went to bed.
Steve's mom turned off the lights.
"Don't stay up and talk.
You will be tired tomorrow. Good night!"
"Good night!" we said, but we couldn't sleep.
We giggled and giggled, and giggled again!
Steve's mom came back.
"Shh! This time, go to sleep! Good night!"
"Okay, good night!" we said.
We felt very tired!
Suddenly, we heard a strange sound from the closet!
"What was that?" we gasped.
We were scared.
We heard the sound again!
"Ooh! There might be a monster in the closet!" I said.
"Oh no!" Steve pulled his blanket over his head.
I pulled my blanket over my head too.
"Did you hear that sound again?" I asked.
"I'm scared! I want my mommy!" said Steve.
He did not want to look!
Soon, it was quiet again.
So I peeked out from under the covers.
"Guess what? It's just your guinea pig!"
It was out of its cage.
We both laughed!
But soon, we both were snoring.
The next morning, my mom came to pick me up.
"Was it fun?" she asked.
"Terrific!" I said.
"Mom, can Steve sleep over at our house next weekend?"
"Yes, he can," Mom agreed.
"Thank you!" I said.
