With a nudge of her foot she opened the slightly ajar door. Well technically she had expected her roommate and her girlfriend to be up and at something productive, not still cuddling at 6:55.
That was a total yes on a weekend but sadly, it wasn’t that time of the week.
Dropping the towel from her wet hair to her shoulders, Nat shook her head.
“You know that you girls should be waking up right about now?”
A few groans of course came from both the girls—not particularly because they were reminded of the obvious, but rather Nat took it into her good will and opened the curtains—obnoxious.
Popping her weight on her elbow Kerstin faked a cough about several times, then innocently glazed at Nat’s direction.
“I am sick.”
Not long after that did Sunny mimic but a bit more dramatic. A forced cough here and there then she hugged the duvet as though she was freezing.
“And she gave it to me.”
Cuddling again, they were.
Nat shook her head as she giggled, these two were quite the couple—very entertaining.
“So no classes for both of you?”
An obvious question of course but she asked it anyway, a little bit of conversation before she went to do this devilish thing called school.
“Yes!” Kerstin cheerfully shouted but soon after covered it up with a cough as Nat questionable stared at her.
“Lazy little couple!” she joked grabbing her bag pack from beside the her study desk.
“I wouldn’t agree more.” agreed Kerstin comfortably placing herself closer to Sunny’s body—if that was at all possible.
“If you keep talking fool, I might just as well get up and force us to class but then again I need my beauty sleep.”
“You don’t need beauty sleep.”
“Because I’m already beautiful?” Sunny questioned batting her eyelashes.
Just her being well her, Kerstin quickly disagreed with a strong head nod. “No, because it doesn’t work on you.”
Soon after that she was falling off the bed tangled up with the duvet.
“i***t!” hissed Sunny.
Kerstin was surely pouting as soon as she stood. Hugging the duvet the girl whined. “Cuddle me!”
“No. You indirectly just called me ugly.”
True, but not very very true because if a person did bring up the topic of them wanting more beauty sleep—and another person objects stating it doesn’t work on them—they both indirectly called the person or themselves ugly.
Generally not that anyone was ugly.
In other terms if humans need beauty sleep to enhance their beauty, it states out they weren’t as beautiful as they hoped.
Anyway enough about that—very useless—forget about it.
“I meant you don’t need it because you are extremely beautiful!”
A great save by the girlfriend of the month—and how? Sunny was furiously blushing
“I hate you!” groaned sunny blushing even more as Kerstin rapidly kissed her cheek.
“Nop! My baby loves me.” she cheerfully piped cuddling the red Sunny.
“Love birds goodbye.” swinging her bag pack over one shoulder Nat announced before checking the time.
“Bye Nat!”
Not very similar to her girlfriend’s response Kerstin checked the time on her phone then stared up, glancing over to Nat.
“You are really early.”
“I need to type an assignment real quick before my first period.”
Yes, she also didn’t do most work because the assigned time rather the last minute.
“That type of lecturer?”
“No I am just that type of student doing it last minute. She gave us the assignment last week Friday.”
Giggling Kerstin shook her head. “See you around roommate, have a blissful day because I will!”
Blissful indeed.

Walking down the aisles in the library, Nat kept adding books into her stack. Different sources were very helpful mostly because she planned on coping and pasting the content—whatever she got as the mark, was that.
It is what it is.
Adding an additional fifth book into her arms she turned to find a place to seat—she didn’t exactly have hours to do this assignment.
Just her luck actually, a familiar face so early with a vacant seat felt delightful.
Steadily she placed the books down on the hard surface. With a bright smile she greeted the girl engrossed in writing, whatever that was.
“Hey Petronella!”
Staring up from the notebook, the girl smiled back. “Hello Natasza!”
“Studying?”
“Well sort of?” pursing her lips she hit the tip of the pen against the surface of the desk. “I have a presentation today and as you can see, I am not that prepared.” she explained pointing at everything.
“Team last minute?”
We at least she wasn’t alone.
“Definitely and my partner kinda left me stranded.”
“Didn’t help with research?”
“Yeah and she is skipping today.”
Seeing the time on her wrist watch Nat turned on her laptop before saying;
“Well what you doing talking to me get back to work. We both don’t have much time.”
Giggled a bit was what Petra did before she was engrossed in her own work.
It hadn’t been long before a hand appeared over Petra’s shoulder—of course she was watching her, the girl sat right in front of her—leaning closer to her ear and whispered something, maybe funny because Petra loudly laughed.
Quickly covering her mouth she pushed the short haired guy away and partly whispered;
“Five minutes and I’ll be done.”
“Can I wait?” he asked already taking the seat beside.
Happily Petra said, “Sure!”
And it was five minutes before Petra packed up all her belongings and stood about to follow the guy, she still didn’t know his name but turned to Nat smiling.
“See you around?”
With a low hum she averted gaze from the guy to Petra. “Of course.” she smiled waving.
The every last thing she saw was Petra ridiculously trying to snatch her bag back from the guy. He had it in his hands over his head running, as Petra chased after.
