"30 Days"
Chapter Three: August 31st
Luz rolled over, hitting her alarm clock and sitting up. It was her first 'official' day at Hexside, despite being there since yesterday. She glanced around the room, her eyes adjusting to the morning light streaming in through the blinds.
"Good morning." Luz said, seeing Amity get out of her bed.
"Why is your alarm so loud?" Amity grumbled, yanking the blinds open.
"That's kinda the point." Luz closed the blinds back and flicked the light switch. "It's too early for sunlight." She added jokingly.
"Whatever." Amity said, grabbing a neatly pressed uniform from off her desk. "Go wait outside." She instructed Luz.
"You can't kick me out just to get dressed." Luz said, grabbing her clothes and pointing to the closet. "Just do it in there." Amity glared at her and seemed to debate arguing about it, before going in.
Luz put on the basketball team's uniform, a blue and yellow shirt with no name on it, solid blue shorts, and yellow pair of sneakers. Everyone had been given the uniform with their letter of admission, and were instructed to wear them until the school had an accurate count of how many official uniforms they'd need.
"Are you done?" Amity asked, still standing in the closet, presumably changed into Hexside's mandatory uniform for non-sports students.
"Yeah." Luz replied. Amity stepped out, immediately catching Luz's attention. A grey jacket was buttoned over her white shirt, the collar slightly askew. She wore black dress pants that matched her shoes.
"Speechless?" Amity said cockily as she looked in the mirror that hung beside the door. For a moment, Luz was. She wasn't expecting the uniform to look so.. good. Especially on Amity.
"No." Luz said, stepping forward to fix Amity's still crooked collar. "I was just going to congratulate you for coming out of the closet." She said with a wink before slinging a drawstring bag over her shoulder and slipping out the door.
Luz checked the time and slowed down a bit, team tryouts were at 8:00 and it was only 6:30. She walked down the dorm hallway and to the right, arriving at the bathrooms. Luz heard chatter as she walked closer, and stepping into the bathroom she found why.
"Good morning." Luz said as she stopped by the sink, pulling out her toothbrush from the bag she'd brought.
"Oh good morning Luz!" Willow said back. She wore the same uniform as Amity, except it had dark green jacket instead of a grey one. Boscha, who was wearing the same uniform as Luz, groggily waved and made an unintelligible string of sounds, partially because she was still half asleep, and partially because she had her toothbrush in her mouth.
"So who's your roommate? Did you two meet well?" Willow asked, leaning up against the counter.
Luz vaguely gestured to her toothbrush and shrugged her shoulders. Boscha, who looked bound to fall over at any second, spit in the sink beside Luz. "Morning."
"You weren't joking when you said you weren't a morning person." Willow laughed.
"Why'd we have to get up now? Luz, when are tryouts?" Boscha asked. Luz held up an 8. "It's at 8. That's in a while, I could've slept longer."
