The sun was already up when William opened his eyes, bright light pouring through the window and hitting him right in the face. He groaned and turned over, burying his face in the pillow.
"Ugh, seriously?" he muttered, trying to block out the light.
"You planning to sleep all day?" Kai's voice came from across the room.
William cracked one eye open and saw his roommate already dressed and organizing some equipment on his desk. Actual combat equipment this time, not books.
"What time is it?" William asked, his voice muffled by the pillow.
"Early enough that we need to leave soon if we're meeting Liam on time."
Right. The mysterious thing Liam wanted help with. William still had no idea what it actually was since Liam had been frustratingly vague about the whole situation.
William dragged himself out of bed and stretched, his back popping from sleeping in a weird position. He grabbed the first clean shirt he could find and started getting dressed properly.
