Miria opened her eyes with a blissful smile.
She was curled up against Asher, perfectly fine, perfectly happy.
Then she turned her head towards the nightstand.
—…
—…
— OH NO!
She stood up abruptly.
— It's Monday!!
Asher groaned.
— Mmhh… what…?
Miria jumped out of bed.
—I'm going to be late!
— Miria… it's too early to panic…
— Too late to discuss!
She stormed towards the bathroom, almost slamming the door. A few minutes later, she came out already dressed, tying up her hair in a hurry.
Asher, still half asleep, slowly got up.
"I'm going," she said, grabbing her bag.
—Wait.
She turned around, incredulous.
—Are you serious?
— I'm late and you're holding me back while you're not going anywhere!
"You're wrong," he replied, yawning.
— I'm coming with you.
- Pardon ?
"Me, Eiden and Bryan are supposed to keep you safe.
— We signed up.
She blinked.
— Have you already registered?
- Yes.
— Today is our first day.
Miria sighed.
- Awesome.
— But you're new, being late won't be a problem for you.
— Unlike me.
And she slammed the door behind her.
Asher was left alone.
Silent.
Then his gaze drifted towards the bed.
His eyes widened.
—…
He slowly raised his head to the ceiling, closed his eyes and whispered:
— She took my shirt...
A resigned smile stretched his lips.
— This girl is going to kill me.
Or worse.
Make him happy.
