The sunlight beaming through the window wakes me up. Two arms are wrapped around my waist, making me feel safe. Oh, Larissa, my love... I never want to get up, I just want to lay in bed with her, in this exact position until the end of time. I love her so much. My head is on her chest, I'm clinged onto her body. This is the best feeling ever.

She places a kiss on my cheek, whispering; "Wake up, little one. You have classes today."

"Mmh, no... I want to stay here with you. Can't we just lay like this for the whole day?" I say with my morning voice.

"Darling, you know we can't. I have work and you have classes. We have to get up, we can lay like this later." She says with a low voice.

"No, please... Just five more minutes. I'll do anythiiiing..." I groan, earning a chuckle from the older blonde. Why does her voice sound so different?

"Y/N, dearest. As much as I want to lay like this with you, we'll be late if we don't get up." She says with her normal voice. I widen my eyes as I realize;

That's not Larissa.

I quickly get up, looking at the woman in horror. "Ms Thornhill?"

And it all makes sense. I fell asleep in Ms Thornhill's arms.

Fuck. Shit.

I gasp and slap my hand to my mouth. "Yes, is something wrong?" She asks innocently.

"U-uh, did I fall asleep? What time is it?" I ask in slight panic.

"Yes, you did fall asleep. I told you that you should go back to your dorm, but you insisted in staying," She says with an amused chuckle. "And it's 7:38am."

"Oh, well I'm sorry, uh- I should go now." I say, still not quite understanding the situation. I grab my purse and storm out of her room. I waste no time in going to Larissa's office. I must look like a mess right now. On the way there, I take my phone out of my purse. I have several missed calls and texts from her. This is really bad.

What if I had accidentally said Larissa's name to Thornhill?

I knock on the door and hear a faint "Come in." I go inside, to meet Larissa, who's sitting down with her head buried in her hands. "Rissa?" I ask, and she immediately shoots her gaze up to me. "Y/N!" She sighs in relief, getting up and almost running over to me, hugging me.

"Oh, I was so worried about you. Thank god you're okay." She says as she buries her face in my neck. We pull away and I cup her cheeks, kissing her tenderly. "I am so sorry, my love." I whisper, wiping a tear that's rolling down her face.

"What happened?" She asks as we go over to sit down on the sofa, she lays her head on my chest and I stroke her hair.

I sigh, contemplating if I should tell her or not. "I- I called you and texted you, I also went to your dorm and you weren't there. Yoko said she didn't know where you were. I even called Ms Thornhill, but she didn't answer."

"Well, I think I know why Ms Thornhill didn't answer your calls." I say and she raises her head to my level, now looking confused. "I accidentally fell asleep in her dorm."

Larissa's jaw drops slightly and her lower lip starts shaking in the way that shows she's about to cry. Her expression is filled with disbelief, disappointment and betrayal.

"N-no, Larissa I didn't mean to do that. I swear! I'm so, so sorry."

"I think you should go." She says, clearly hurt.

"No... Please, just hear me out!" I beg.

"Y/N I SAID GET OUT!" She screams, making me flinch, tears welling up in my eyes, too. "Rissa..." I whisper, trying one more time. She just shakes her head and says, now in a much calmer tone;
