It was decided that Hoshika and Mikan would temporarily stay with Hotaru in her room, just until both girl's star rankings were evaluated. Hotaru, being not so gracious, kept the bed to herself and had Hoshika and Mikan sleep on a futon on the floor. Hoshika wasn't that bothered by this, she actually was used to sleeping on a futon, since she did it back home, but Mikan wanted to sleep with Hotaru.
"Hotaru!" she whined, "Please, there's enough space right next to you!" she pointed to the empty space near Hotaru.
"No, there's not." Hotaru spread out her body so she took up the extra space.
"Wha?! But--"
"Mikan, just come sleep on the futon next to me, we're all tired after today." Hoshika called tiredly, waving her arm for Mikan to come over.
"Hmph! Fine." The girl pouted and plopped down next to Hoshika.
The girls on the floor conversed a bit before a duck was thrown at them by Hotaru, who yelled they were being too loud. They giggled a bit but said goodnight to each other, and once they actually closed their eyes, the girls fell asleep in no time.
"Thank you, everyone! Thank you, everyone! Thank you for celebrating my enrollment!" Mikan giggled loudly in her sleep, accidentally waking up the other two girls in the room. Hotaru pulled out something called an 'Idiot Gun' and shot her with it until she woke up.
Mikan woke up, looking around confused. She decided that she would braid her hair the night before, and even put small braids in Hoshika's hair, leaving the majority of it down. Mikan melted when she saw Hotaru, and yelled her name dreamily before getting shot in the face with another one of Hotaru's weapons. She landed on the other side of the room, and hit the ground with a thump.
Hoshika rubbed the back of her neck with a sigh, So early in the morning... Hoshika was many things, but a morning person was not one of them.
"You lack common sense, waking me and Hoshika up with your sleep talk after I let you sleep in my room." Hotaru got up off her bed, "Hurry up and get dressed, you two. If you're late on your first day, they'll cancel your enrollment."
Mikan beamed up at her and hurried to get dressed. Hoshika took her time, but somehow was still done before Mikan, who was busy looking in the mirror at her appearance, and psyching herself up for the day.
"Let's go, Mikan, you heard what Hotaru said." The girl called, already out the door.
She walked down the steps before accidentally bumping into someone, "Oh, I'm sorry--" she looked up to see Natsume, who simply 'tch'ed at her and walked ahead with his hands in his pockets. She frowned at his appearance, he looked half-dead. Hoshika heard footsteps behind her and Mikan ran up.
"You ready?" Mikan asked, "What's wrong, are you okay?"
"Nothing, it's fine." Hoshika gave her a reassurring smile, "Let's just go."
Just as they began walking, Hotaru showed up on her scooter and Mikan began to run after her, dragging along Hoshika with her.
"Wait! Wait for us Hotaru! Take us with you!"
"No, it's a one-person ride." she said, speeding off.
Mikan's feet tangled together and she hit the ground, "Ow... "
Hoshika sighed, helping Mikan up to her feet and briefly touching her friend's hurt knee with her fingertips, activating her Alice. "Silly Mikan, always tripping everywhere... " she grumbled.
