"Rise and shine, everyone!" Biana chirped, clapping her hands to flood the room in light.
Groans echoed throughout the room. Biana sighed. "Okay, let's do it this way: If you don't get up now I'll have Ro give me some bacteria; and I'm sure everyone knows she will have lots of interesting ideas."
Nearly everyone instantly got up.
"Biana!" Sophie mumbled, her hair definitely not looking good. "It's seven in the morning!"
"All the more reasons to get up," Biana replied, putting her hands on her hips. "Besides, you'll need more than a few minutes to tame that hair of yours." Sophie self-consciously patted her hair before grabbing the bag of clothes, and other things she brought with her, and walked out to find a changing place.
"I expect everyone to be here in...two hours at most," Biana announced, heading towards the door.
Tam coughed. "Why do girls need so long to get ready?" He mumbled quietly.
Biana ignored this, but called out over her shoulder, "Beauty cannot be rushed!"
An hour later-
"Finally!" Sophie said, throwing up her arms. Sophie's hair was now in silky and smooth, with a clip to pull the hair out of her face. She wore a red tunic and black leggings with brown boots. Red is definitely her color, Biana thought.
Biana smirked as she sat beside her. "How'd you get your hair done so fast? I thought two hours wasn't even enough!"
Sophie scowled. "Edaline made me bring some elixirs." She grumbled.
Marella sighed. "Can we please just go eat something now? I'm starving!"
"Same here!" Multiple voice called out.
Everyone raced downstairs and into the dining room only to find a giant plate full of mallowmelt and butterblasts, also some bottles of lushberry juice.
Everyone thanked Della, who was standing to the side with a somewhat pleased expression on her face, and grabbed more than their fair share of food, before racing up to the sleeping room again.
Everyone let out pleased sights as their stomaches were filled and not a crumb was left on the floor.
"Hey, Sophie," Marella asked. "What was that thing you were talking about when Biana was getting her hat yesterday? Oh what was it? Oh! Wasn't it Seven Minutes in Heaven or something?"
Sophie groaned. "Can we please not play that game?" She begged.
"Foster, Foster, Foster," Keefe said, wagging a finger at her. "Once you say it like that," he grinned, "then of course we have to play! Now would you be so kind and explain the rules, Miss I-Hate-This-Game-So-Much-I'm-Going-To-Tug-On-My-Eyelashes?"
Sophie sighed. "Seven Minutes in Heaven is where one of us picks a name out of a hat, then we each find a closet and spend seven minutes with that elf. It almost always ends really...weird? I dunno how I can describe it, but...I think the word is romantic." She wrinkled her nose.
"Great! Sounds fun! I'll go get my hat!" Biana squealed, running down to her room.
Just as they did yesterday, the boys wrote their name and and dropped it in Biana's hat.
"I also grabbed my dad's timer," Biana explained as she set a light blue crystal cube on the floor. "It'll beep once seven minutes is over. Now, girls please pick." She held out the hat.
Lihn peeked in the hat and picked out a name. "Wylie," she said softly, surprised.
Marella went next and announced, "Fitz."
