And the time goes tic, tic, tic, tic.....tock

Wanna wake up at 3 a.m? then again at 4? how bout' again at 5?
Just have this conversation right before bed and you'll be guaranteed a sleepless night.
Gecko: Jeeez, is that another tic? Goddammit. (he says as he impales it with a screwdriver.)
Andriana: Jeeez, that's like the fourth one today. WTF. Where are they coming from?(she says from under her covers, tucked in for the night, her eyes honing in on any and all small black dots including her very own pupils)
Gecko: I don't know. Maybe we're carrying them in. (he says while getting settled into his bed.)
Andriana: That many? Can't be. (she says, itching and scratching)
Gecko: You know, I think they are probably coming in from the wheel well. Yeah, that's probably it - the wheel well.
Andriana: What's the wheel well?
Gecko: It's that space right under your bed where the wheels are stored. Anyway, goodnight.
