We are all unfortunate

Chapter 8

AN: Homestretch!

Short POV change: It's again fluff before the game starts. Hey want to give them as many peaceful times as possible before the main events.

Sorry for the late update, life has been busy.

"This wasn't how I'd expected to spend the last day of the school year."

That was the thought that had ran through my mind at that moment.

It'd been a fairly normal day, other than the fact that finals were done and today was really just a day to finish up all loose ends. Arlan had woken me up, jumping on top of me and tickling me. Deferentially regretting him finding that one out. He'd been a great help the last few months, making sure that I wasn't over sleeping. He'd noticed I'd started to deteriorate, sleeping eleven hours straight at night and often falling sleep during the day time as well. In classes that we had together he would keep me awake, but also made sure that I would sleep every few hours almost like a set nap time.

Dixion was also worried and would let me sleep during lunches. He'd first been wary of Arlan continuously hanging around me; as I got worse it was hard to miss them working together.

Noah, who'd already brought a pillow with him everyday started bringing an extra. Even going as far as to help me with Oliver's tutoring lessons when I was to tired to go.

As for Lydle... I had barely communicated with him. He did check in on me on occasion, like checking to see if I was still alive. There was disappointing news on Draconia-san's side. He hadn't gotten any useful information about the reason why Lydle was acting like this.

Anyways, Master Crewel had dismissed class early. Saying, "You puppies are too excited to get out of here, you'll make a mess of any assignment I give you." So a class of twenty students were not roaming about the grounds doing who knows what. Well, no. They were probably packing or going into town for souvenirs to commemorate the end of the year.

I lay there in the shade of a tree in the court yard, staring through the leaves and branches into the light of the summer sun. Hands resting behind my head, creating a pillow for it to rest upon. Unlike here where it was warm, my home was cold year round. Meaning that for majority of the summer this would be one of the last times I could enjoy the warmth.

POV:???

Class had gotten out early, allowing me to roam about the campus for the next hour in peace. It was nice, seeing the campus in day-light yet not rushing from place to place. It had a different feel than from at night. The uniform's loafers made no noise under foot.

Making my way out to the court yard, a rush of air blew dark locks away from my face, the rustling of leaves. The warm summer sun contrast to my pale skin, it was warm yet this side of the island was cooler than the other. Thus we got cool winds. Vibrant green of the trees under the sun shown with intensity, I leaned against on of the archways sighing in contentedness. I could hear the classic music class preforming their last lessons, it was mixed with the hum of talking from other classrooms.

Walking farther into the courtyard, there beneath the apple tree, laying in a doze, as a child. Well perhaps that would be offensive to some, it was the child who'd saved me the other day after all. Although, 'save' was an odd word to say even in my head. I'd been injured in my runes class, so was sent out of the class in order to receive medical attention. Neither Professor nor my classmate Speculum could accompany me there due to the nature of the class and possibly revealing identities. I'd only managed to make it so far before collapsing in the hallway, class was still in session so there was no way some one would be on their way to help me any time soon. Or that was what I'd though.
