Will woke up fully rested and relaxed. it had been the first time in months that Will could sleep like a baby. The bed was soft, springy, and just the right shape around Will's big curves, but it also had the light scent of cotton candy. Oddly enough, Will felt safe, even though a killer clown's feet was in his face during his time of sleeping. It was almost as if the Sandman had finally given Will a chance to have pleasant thoughts, and dreams. Will looked around the room, only to realise that Jack wasn't there. But that didn't fully concern Will, so he got up and went to bathroom. a part of Will's normal morning routine, much like every other human back on earth's morning routine. The bathroom had that cotton candy scent, but it was stronger in the bathroom than on the bed. It almost smelt as if someone had thrown 500 cotton candy scented bath bombs into the sink, and the toilet, but Will had quickly changed that.
Once Will came out of the tent, he could see Jack walking up to Will, with a excited look on his face. "Oh Will! One of my old professors from the Institution has invited us to volunteer on helping with the set up for their clubs and careers fair!! Wanna come with me to do this?? There's free food for the volunteers~!"
As soon as Will heard the word food, he instantly clicked in on the thought.
"Sure, you had me at free food!!"
Jack squealed in excitement, and smiled with glee.
"Okay! There's a pair of socks and shoes for you plus your jacket in the caravan."
"Ok, thanks!"
"you're welcome!"
Will walked to the caravan, putting on the socks and shoes that was inside of it, and grabbed his jacket. While Will was slipping on his jacket, he walked to Jack who was waiting at the front gates of the circus. Jack had a big grin on his face, and he seems to be doing a little happy dance.
"Ready?"
"Yep!"
Will walked out of the circus with Jack, who was almost skipping while he was walking. As soon as they got to the Institution, they where met with a few delivery vans with supplies and a few members of clubs setting their booths up early. The bright red eyes and fuzzy black exterior of Professor Pleasant, spotted both Will and Jack, then walked up to them.
"Oh! I see you picked my invite for the volunteering?"
"Yes! I always want help the lovely school that I got my best slaughtering techniques from"
"Oh Laughing Jack, that's why you were one of my favorite students"
Will looked a bit confused
"Professor Pleasant, are you the one who's gonna be hosting this fair?"
"Yes William, besides being a professor, I'm also the events director of this school"
"Ooohhhh.. but what is this fair exactly for?"
"Well, it is for the students of the Institution, and students of other schools in the Underworld to see what clubs there is here, and inspire students of what careers they would like to have!"
"Oh that sounds neat"
"Yes it does sound neat. Oh! you boys could start helping by unload the vans, if you don't mind"
"Alright professor, we don't mind!" Jack said with a friendly, but happy smile. And Will and Jack began to help unload the delivery vans. Some of the boxes were light, but the rest of them, were heavy as a 40lb dumbbell, any yet some how, Laughing Jack had the strength to carry them like they weren't even heavy at all. It made Will a little annoyed, since his strength was wasted away by food, and laziness.
