Chapter 3: Red Blue Green Yellow

Robin is not a morning person. At all. Not once in his life had he liked waking up early. There was no demand for him to, either; school didn't start until 8:30, he didn't have a job, and he didn't work out because he was too lazy to. So when he was awoken at five in the morning by the sound of some weird alarm, he was barely functioning as a human being. He looked around for his glasses and put them on, sitting up a little. He saw Zelda scurrying around the room, fully dressed in her uniform.

"Zelda?" He said, his voice deep and raspy. She froze, turning to him with the best smile she could muster.

"Sorry, did I wake you?" She asked.

"It's okay. Why are you up so early?" Robin asked.

"Well," she hesitated. "I'll be back in about two hours, okay? I've got a doctor's appointment, so I, uh..."

"At this hour? I didn't know any offices were open this early," Robin said, rubbing his eye. He could tell she didn't want to tell him, and he wasn't about to pry either. So he settled for a little casual conversation, hoping it'd make her feel a little better.

"Oh! Yeah, haha, my doctor's a little weird. She's quite a cranky woman," Zelda smiled. "Anyway, I'll be back soon, okay? You keep on sleeping." As soon as she finished talking, she hurried and left the dorm. He was a little worried, to be honest, and awfully curious. But it wasn't his business, and he didn't want to make her uncomfortable. So to get his mind off it, he went back to sleep.

Back to sleep.

Sleep.

He couldn't sleep.

He groaned quietly and kicked the sheets off him, jumping carefully out of the bed. He intertwined his fingers over his head and stretched his back, his shirt moving up enough to reveal his belly button. He let out a low moan as he relaxed, slapping his mouth shut as soon as he realized what that sound was. His cheeks flared up as he scurried his way to the bathroom.

After taking a quick shower and brushing his teeth, he got dressed in his uniform and stared at himself in the mirror. His skin was in good condition, for once. Had he gotten paler? Usually his skin was a little darker than this, and while it was still a nice caramel color, he looked more... dead than usual. Maybe it was because he was a little nervous for today, being that it was the first day of school. Well whatever, not like anyone was gonna notice anyway. Hopefully.

He slipped on his comfort sweater and then came the debate of the century: glasses vs contacts. He bought a pair a couple weeks ago but had been too scared to wear them until now. Who knows, maybe it was time for something new. He put on his glasses and walked out.

School didn't start for another hour and a half, and Zelda wasn't back yet. He considered texting her, but he figured she was probably in the middle of the appointment, so he settled for reading a book. Something about Witchers. He felt his phone vibrate in his pocket, so he took it out and opened the messenger app. He figured it might've been spam, but his eyes went wide as he realized just who it was.
