Studying. Preparing. Memorising class schedule.
That's how you should have been spending the day before you're new semester at Coruscant University, one of the most prestigious universities in the country, but no.
Your friends had other ideas.
"ALICE" came a gang of shouts from the other side of your door. You didn't need to open it to know who it was.
"REY, FINN, POE" you screamed back as you opened the door, they'd been your best friends for as long as you can remember, going through everything with you. Your first heartbreak, when your parents split up, everything and now they were here with you.
You all wrapped each other into one big hug. Then the realisation hit, they were here.
" I thought you were going to the university across the water, why are you here?!" not that you were complaining but it was a shock.
"You didn't think you were getting rid of us that easy did you king?" Poe said while pushing his way inside the dorm.
"Exactly, as if you could survive without us, the fearsome foursome" you giggled at the memories of you all as kids, all growing up wanting to be superheroes, giving yourselves that nickname.
"Oh shutup, I could too!" you protested.
"Okay you three enough with the bickering, to celebrate us all being here together, I think we should go to the new club that opened around the corner, apparently its very hip" we laughed at Rey's choice of words.
"I don't know guys, my classes start reallyyyyy early tomorrow and I wanted to start reading the material" your first class was only at 11AM but you didn't want to be late, there's rumours that the new English professor was strict and it wouldn't be the best way to start the year.
"A few hours at the most and you know you'll have fun if you go, so come onnnn, you know you want to" they all gave you knowing looks, it was a fact you loved dancing and always have done.
You gave in.
"Okay, okay I'll go!"
"I told you she'd say yes" Poe knows you too well, "Be ready in two hours, we'll come pick you up at 7" at that they all started leaving your dorm to go get ready. Which leaves you with the biggest decision of the night, what to wear.
You had plenty of time to get ready so you jumped into the shower, using your favourite shampoo, the smell reminds you of home.
After finishing up in the shower you realised you only had an hour left to get ready, doing your makeup you decided on a dark smokey eye with a hint of glitter, rummaging through your closet you picked out the perfect dress. Black, mid-thigh and tight, just how you liked it. Slipping it on it hugged you in all the right places. Curling your hair you were finally ready.
Your phone went off, a text from Poe.
