The Hidden Secrets

Ryker's Birthday

It was May 29, just a couple of days after Andrea and all her friends were hanging out. Ava had already taken out Andrea's stitches and her cut was healing at a faster rate than normal, however Andrea wasn't complaining about it. It was finally Ryker's birthday, it was also coming to the end of the year. On June 6 is when they would leave Black Academia and go back to their families. However they decided to not worry about them leaving until they would be on the train. Right now all they are worrying about is having another best birthday yet, Ryker's. His birthday was very simple since they were going to be quite busy throughout those times. Ryker didn't want anything big either way so they respected his decisions. It was finally the day and Andrea was once again, the first one to wake up after a very tireful Friday.

Andrea fluttered her eyes open to only see the darkness that was within her room. Reaching over she turned on her desk lamp, which only blinded Andrea even more. Andrea was exhausted and saw it was 9:30 in the morning, just an hour before they would have to leave for Ryker's surprise. Sitting up on her bed she stretched her arms upwards, just trying to wake herself up before doing her routine. Andrea didn't feel like putting on her contacts just yet, so she sluggishly placed on her glasses, something that was very uncomfortable for her. Standing up out of bed, trying not to give herself tunnel vision. Andrea walked up to her dresser where she had a mini mirror, though tired she had no eye bags. Andrea took out her hair and placed it into a neater ponytail than what it was when she woke up. Walking to Asher's bedroom to wake him up first, after that would be Ryker.

Andrea wasn't sure if Asher was awake yet, so she first knocked on his door to see if she would get an answer. Knocking on the door it was just what Andrea expected, Asher was still sleeping. Andrea slightly chuckled to herself that even though she falls asleep later than them, Andrea is always the first one to wake up. Opening the door on her own she saw Asher peacefully sleeping, smiling to herself she walked over to him. Putting her hand on Asher's shoulder she started to shake him, trying to wake him up. Asher groaned and turned around to lay on his back, he opened his eyes to see Andrea standing over there. "Morning sleepy head" Andrea said, making him chuckle under his breath. "Morning" Asher said in his sleepy morning voice, making Andrea laugh as well. "Come on, we have a birthday boy that won't wake up" Andrea said, pulling him out of bed, shaking his head.

"How do you have so much energy?" Asher said, rubbing his eyes, still in his pajamas, Andrea grateful that he had shirt on. Andrea just chuckled, she really wasn't a morning person however her body was just used to it. "Ash I've been waking this early forever. My body is used to it, and I'm exhausted. Just don't show it" Andrea said. Asher just rolled his eyes, still feeling tired after finishing up all of his schoolwork. Andrea was still in her long, plaid pants with a gray cropped shirt. While Asher had on some black pants with a black shirt on while he was sleeping. "Well we are both tired" Asher said, Andrea agreed. Andrea was exhausted and couldn't stop yawning, tears in her eyes because of it. Looking at the time it was already 9:45, they had to leave soon if they wanted to make it when it opened. "We better wake up Ryker and get ready," Asher said, Andrea nodding her head as they both went to Ryker's dorm.

At first, they knocked at the door and thought they heard motion, so they waited outside for him to open the door. "I think I heard some motion, maybe he is awake already?" Andrea said, her head to the door listening in. Asher also put his head to the door, their faces just inches away from one another. "He might be awake, however when is he ever up early?" Asher said, making Andrea chuckle. It was true, Ryker was never up for anything early, however they were both hearing some movement throughout his room. Not moving their heads from the door the maneuvering stopped all of a sudden. Andrea knocking on the door once again they didn't hear any activity going on. "I told you, he isn't awake" Asher said, making Andrea roll her eyes and move her head away from the door. Asher moved his head as well, him looking at Andrea. "Come on, we have to wake him up," Andrea said, with a blank face as she opened the door.
