Avi wakes up shivering as he tries to cuddle up next to Kirstie for warmth. But she wasn't much better.

"Why is it so cold in here?" Kirstie whines as she snuggles to Avi.

"I don't know but this room sucks." Avi mumbles as he reaches for some clothes.

"Where are you going?" She asks, missing his warmth as he gets out of bed.

"I need to see if I can find out what's going on with the heat." Avi says as he quietly opens the door and looks out into the empty dark hallway. "I don't think it's just our room. The hallway is cold too."

He tiptoes quietly over to Tim and Adam's room and gently taps on the door.

Adam unwraps himself from his lover and starts to ease out of bed, being careful not to wake Tim. He gasps as he feet hits the cold floor. "D*mn." He whispers as he grabs his boxers and a bathrobe.

He opens the door to a shivering Avi.

"Do y'all have heat?" Avi asks, hugging himself.

"No." Adam answers, stepping out into the hallway and pulling the door to behind him. "I don't think we even have power. Ain't there suppose to be lights lighting the hall."

Avi walks over, feeling around on the wall in search of a light switch. Finding a switch, he flips it but nothing happens.

"If that is a light switch, then the power is off." Avi says.

They hear a door open down the hall and someone comes out with a flashlight.

"I thought I heard voices." Chris says in a soft voice.

"The power is off. There's no heat." Adam says through chattering teeth.

"I think we need to get everyone up and head down to the living room. The fire we had started in the fireplace may still be going." Chris says. "There should be a flashlight in your nightstand. That's where I found this one. And grab you some blankets."

The guys nod and go back to their rooms.

"Hey, Kirst?" Avi says as he tries to feel his way through the dark to find the nightstand.

"Hmmm?" She answers but sounds muffled. 

He finds the flashlight right where Chris said it would be. He turns the light on and chuckles at the human burrito in the bed.

"Come on, Baby Doll. Get up and get some warm clothes on. We're all going downstairs. The power is out." Avi says as he starts to put on warmer clothes.

"Don't this place have a generator?" Kirstie says as she raises up and catches some clothes Avi pitches to her.

"Apparently not. If it does, it ain't working." Avi says.

Adam walks slowly toward the bed trying to remember where Tim's clothes and all the candles were on the floor. He successfully finds the bed without tripping and breaking his neck.

"Timmy? Babe, wake up." Adam says brushing the hair from his face.

"Hmm." Tim answers in a low growl but not moving.

Adam turns on the flashlight. Tim moans and covers his eyes.

"Come on, wake up. We need to go downstairs to the fireplace." Adam says as he gets dressed.

"Isn't there a fireplace in here?" Tim groans in pain as he tries to roll over.

"Yeah, but they're electric and the power's off." Adam says going to the dresser to get Tim some boxers and some jogging pants.

"Oh, God. I'm dying." Tim groans as he tries to sit up. Pain shooting up his back side.

"Sorry." Adam chuckles handing his lover a sweatshirt.

"What time is in anyway?" Tim asks slipping on the shirt.

"Uhm." Adam answers checking his phone. "3:15."

"Well, this sucks." Tim moans.

Tim smiles at Adam down on his knees slipping a pair of socks on Tim's feet.

"You're such an angel." Tim smiles.

"Well, I figured you wouldn't be able to bend over to put them on." Adam says with a light chuckle.

"You are so right." Tim yawns.

Chris wakes Rob, Eddie and Esther and then Chance. He figured Chance would go wake Austin so he heads downstairs to revive the fire.

Chance goes into Austin's room. He smiles down at the smaller man, curled up in a ball, covered from head to toe in blankets.

"Let's go, Tiny." He reaches down and scoops Austin up into his arms.

"Chance?" Austin says softly uncovering his head.

"Yeah, it's me." Chance answers.

"I'm cold." Austin says as he lays his head on Chance's shoulder.

"I know, Sweetie." Chance says, giving him a kiss on the forehead. "We're going downstairs to the fireplace where it's a little warmer."

Austin nods burying his face in Chance's neck.

"Looks like we're having a sleepover." Avi chuckles as he spreads some blankets out on the floor.

"Not quite as comfy as the bed but at least it's a little warmer in here." Eddie says as he and Esther get comfortable.

Everyone was busy making their pallets on the floor. 

Tim tried his best to act normal even though he was in great pain. Chris threw a couple more logs on the fire as everyone begins to settle down.

As Tim begins to try to get down on the floor he lets out an accidental groan of pain.

He freezes in place as everyone raises their heads to look at him. Adam giggles quietly and covers his head with the blanket.

Tim's eyes slowly raise to me the green eyes that were staring at him.

"OH. MY. GOD!" Avi laughs as he sits up from his pallet and begins to laugh. "THE GUNMAN GOT BANGED!!"

"OH, SHUT THE HELL UP." Tim growls as he grabs a pillow from the couch and throws at the hysterical man hitting him in the face.
