A/N
thank you so much for reading this it means a lot. My spelling and grammar are trash.
It was the next morning and the only reason Sarah knew that was because the clock read 7:30 a.m. EST, 11/12/23. She felt very tired even though she had over 12 hours of sleep. Plus, she had probably had even more sleep before that.
"I should probably admit that I may have sedated you this time," Julian said in that annoying way of his. Sarah looked up at him. She hadn't noticed him sneaking up on her and at that point he was looming over the bed that she was lying on. Then she noticed his eyes. They were a gorgeous light blue color like the sky; no, the place where the sky meets the sun. His skin was also a beautiful tan.
"You scared me," Sarah exclaimed in a way that she hoped made her sound like someone not to be messed with instead of someone who would fall over at the drop of a hat. (since she probably would have)
"Wait, what? You sedated me!" Sarah said while thinking; So that's why it had been so long.
"Yeah you needed the sleep," Julian replied.
"I don't think I did if you had to sedate me." Sarah snapped back.
"Well it doesn't matter now. Put some clothes on," he said as he tossed what at first appeared to be a school uniform onto Sarah's bed, "You're getting the tour."
He left and Sarah got dressed. It was your typical fancy private school uniform.
"Is this a school uniform?" Sarah questioned, genuinely curious.
"Probably or it is at least your temporary one." Responded Julian, and as if he could read her mind,"your godly parent chooses what you wear for school but when you are not in school you are allowed to wear almost whatever you want. They still tend to give us kids a dress code but they are usually not too strict."
"Do you know what my dress code is?" Sarah inquired.
"Considering I don't even know your name, no. I do not know what your dress code is." He responded with that irritating, almost teasing tone from earlier.
"Then how did you know to give me these clothes?" Sarah continued hoping to eventually get him at a loss for words. Unfortunately, that was not what transpired.
"Well,actually," Julian continued, seeming to do it only to annoy her and in a tone that made it seem like he believed he knew everything. "These are the clothes that appeared with you on top of your bags when you materialized out of who knows where. When that happens we tend to think that is what your godly parent wishes you to wear." Julian finally finished.
"Did you search my stuff!" Sarah nearly screamed.
"No, but they did go through a magical screening." He continued, " however were not tampered with. If they were not permitted on the property then they would not have even opened your bags. By the way, the bags passed the screening and are waiting for us once we get to the front office."
"Boy! You really hate talking," Sarah said sarcastically in a way that she was finally satisfied with.
"Uhf..." Julian said exasperatedly but Sarah could still see a hint of a smile on his face.
At that point, they were standing in front of a dark wood door. It seemed very sturdy and Julian stopped in front of it.
"This is where I leave you for a minute. But, I am curious as to what your name is?" Julian questioned with what seemed to be genuine interest.
Then Sarah, trying to be dramatic, pulled open the door and right before it closed behind her said "Sarah. My name is Sarah."
Once Sarah closed the door behind her, she looked around. There was an old man sitting behind the desk in the center of the room.
