ONLY PACKING THE NECESSITIES

━

Blake's eyes slowly opened and she groggily glanced around her bedroom, which was in a state of complete disarray. Different articles of clothing were scattered everywhere amongst the room — the floor, atop her desk, tossed lazily over her office chair — it was a disaster and the mere thought of having to clean it up made her want to cry.

With a tired sigh, she sat up and threw her duvet off of her. Her cat, Marvel, was sleeping on the bed next to her head, and Blake pet him for a moment before turning the other way to grab her phone off of her nightstand. It was just past ten in the morning, which was a lot later than she normally woke up — though she wouldn't complain. She's had a very busy couple of weeks, and she knew that it was only going to get busier as the days passed. Excited was a drastic understatement, but so was nervous.

Luke had sent her several snapchat messages earlier in the morning, and Blake was truthfully surprised that he was awake at that hour. Does this guy ever sleep?
