That Wednesday morning was just like any other morning. I rolled out of bed with a grumble regretting as I always did how I late I stayed up talking to my friends on the phone. The lateness of the night never bothered me. The earliness of the morning always did. I contemplated letting myself sleep in for just one day. Then I forced myself to remember how much I hated dealing with the congestion if I didn't get to the school before the buses. The extra rest wasn't worth it. I took a quick shower, got dressed, made sure to take my medicine, went downstairs to have breakfast, chatted with Eden, played with Button, and was then on my way. The roads were calm, and I got an even better parking space than normal. My mood had increased decently by the time I reached the halls. When I turned the corner to approach my locker, I found out it was a rather good thing I hadn't delayed. Sap was clearly waiting for me as he stood right next to it. I was still sleepy, but he looked even more out of it. I couldn't help giggling quietly as he yawned a massive yawn- his expression shifting into something quite amusing.

However, my smile quickly dropped. That was because I was horribly perplexed. I thought it was Sap who had been standing there, but the closer I got the more my brain told me the person wasn't Sap. It was clearly him though, and it thankfully only took the brief second when he turned my way for me to figure out what was causing the confusion.
"Did you forget you glasses at home?" I asked.
"Nope. My sight has been stable for a long while now, so after a few weeks of bothering my parents they finally allowed me to get some contacts." Sap explained, beaming happily.
"You look entirely different." I remarked in awe, almost unconsciously reaching up to lightly touch the side of his face as I stared taking in the new sight.
Embarrassed, I quickly dropped my hand down. Sap didn't linger on it just like normal.
"Bud and 'Chio have been saying the same thing. 'Chio even teased me about it all the way here this morning. She says I am somewhat good looking now." he said with a lighthearted roll of his eyes.
"I like you either way," I smiled, "Did all three of you come to school early then?"
"Yeah. 'Chio had a meeting before school for one of her activities. We share one car between the three of us. Neither Bud or I wanted to take the bus, so we opted to come early with her instead. Bud's definitely regretting it. She's crashed on one of the couches in the library."
"I saw you yawning pretty big too." I revealed teasingly.
"Yeah, I'm not a morning person either. I don't get how you can stand coming at this time everyday."
"You get used to it." I shrugged.

We talked in the hallway for some time before moving to the room where I had my first class. It seemed there were multiple extracurriculars having early meeting, for there were decently more students roaming the halls than normal. Sap and I wanted to chat with a bit more privacy. Not that we talked about anything monumental. We chatted about what seemed like normal high school gossip at the time.
"You know, it's not only getting up early that's made me so tired. My sisters kept me up all night too with their constant phone calls." Sap revealed.
"I thought you were in your own room?"
"Oh, I am. But mine is right next to theirs. The wall isn't the thickest in the world, and those two have no consideration in keeping their voices quiet when the hour grows late."
"Why were they talking so much?"
"They caught wind of some rumor that began to spread around the halls during the last few periods yesterday. Apparently, it's 'scandalous.' Bud and 'Chio, the gossip-lovers they are, were desperately trying to find out exactly what it was all about. I don't think they managed to dig up much. They sure loved speculating though."
"What a ridiculous thing to waste their time on. Those rumors are never real anyway. It's all just immature people making up immature stories."
"And my sisters wonder why I'd rather spend time with you than stick around with them." Sap laughed.
