"HARLEY! WAKEUP! NOW!" Jenny yelled.

"What is it?" I asked not opening my eyes.

I had a déjà vu feeling right now. The day we got that golden ticket, the day that changed our lives.

It's been more than a week, training in this strange place and I dare say we've improved. We even learnt simple magic spells like levitating, teleportation, invisibility and much more. I can also fight, well sorta.

And I finally got a sword that was just right. I'm thinking of a name.

Yes, I'm gonna name my sword.

"Come on what normal person still sleeps by this time." She whined.

When will they learn?

"You know what?, don't answer that." Jenny let out an exasperated sigh.

"Wasn't planning to." I groaned, snuggling deeper into the bed. It's still surprising how comfortable this bed is. What's this made of?

My bed has competition.

"Just five more minutes," I begged with my eyes still closed.

"No." George said. "We're gonna be late for the—"

"I don't care." I cut him off

"Is she always like this?" Tom asked. That means Jacky's here also. Great.

I've been trying to get some space between us. Lately, the smallest gestures and compliments he gives me seem to make me blush like crazy. Jenny and Isabel have noticed this and they aren't going easy on the teasing.

"You have no idea." Isabel told Tom.

"So what do you guys usually do to wake her up, cause we're going to be late for the summoning." Jacky asked curiously.

There were hushed whispers and I didn't bother trying to find out what they were talking about. I was slowly drifting back to sleep.

"And the honour's all yours Jacky" Isabel said loud enough for me to hear.

"Really?" He asked.

"Yeah, sure. You and Tom need to know how to do this things and you're first." Jenny reassured him.

What are they talking about? It would be smart of them to just let Isabel use ice on me but it would also be disturbing.

Soon the bed dipped and before I knew what was happening, I was being tickled.

"No...oo..." I screamed, laughing. Why does this always happen to me?

"I'm u...up." I managed to say. I was in tears now and Jacky still didn't stop.

"Please!" I begged, rolling away from the covers and landing on the floor with a thud.

I groaned and they visibly winced.

"This happens a lot too." George laughed helping me up.

"I'm surprised I'm not losing some screws yet." I glared at him, sitting down at the edge of the bed.

"How come you're still asleep." Tom asked me, raising his brow slightly.

Well I'm not anymore.

"Well if you haven't noticed, I'm not a morning person." I yawned. "And I was out last night putting out a fire at the bakery. You know water elemental stuff."
