A Semester with Portia

4

"Heh, they're supposed to be a prince."

I marveled my sleeping roommates, one almost thrown off the bed and the other slept in opposite way.

I woken up early to freshen up for the morning ceremony—no, not really, the wake-up alarm from the PA woke me up. It seems they've totally knocked out from staying up too late for them not to wake up from that.

It's already past seven and the morning ceremony starts at eight.

I made my way to the door and glance towards a button. I pressed it and it made a buzzing sound.

I waited as I walked to the mirror, studying my school uniform. It's a black suit with pink plaid waistcoat, matching it with pink tie and a blue school crest.

I suddenly remembered the schedule plan and made my way to my nightstand. I grabbed it and made it to my seat on the round table, it's just on the side of the room pairing it with three luxurious chairs.

Few minutes, a knock made me stop familiarizing on my schedule. I opened it to see a servant with food on a rolling tray.

I widen the door to let her inside. I watched her getting the plates from the tray to the round table. After that, she bowed and made her way out.

I made to my seat and saw three plates with–erm, fancy breakfast on it, you know eggs and bacons with french toast? And it seems they really granted our request yesterday, I have my tea beside my portion. I didn't specify the tea and they immediately suggested their own tea, which is the Gardania's aroma tea.

I immediately ate my breakfast as I glanced to my watch. Seven thirty.

I focus on my tea as I inhaled the sweet aroma.

A shuffling was heard as I glanced towards it to see them slowly waking up.

I sipped from my tea as I crossed my legs.

"Good morning."

I greeted as two pairs of eyes landed on me.

"Morning."

A groggy voice greeted back, Nathan slowly got up from the bottom part of his bed as he rubs his eye.

"What time is it?"

The other one slowly gets off the bed, using his hands currently on the ground.

"Seven thirty."

I simply said as I glance back to my schedule.

"The ceremony?"

Nathan added.

"Eight sharp."

They shoot up immediately as they looked at me.

"Why didn't you wake us up?"

Nick asked with bloodshot eyes on me.

"You were sleeping so soundly, it would be rude of me to wake you in such state."

I excused as I took a sip again. It's really sweet for a tea but relaxing nonetheless.

I heard them shuffle around and starts to head towards the bathroom.

"I'm first."

Nathan declared as they got to the door.

"We're in a hurry, let's get in together."

Nick compromised.

"Eww, no."

Nathan scrunches up his face as he made his way into the bathroom.
