Hello again I'm glad I'm getting these out as fast as I am I'm looking at the profile and its saying I published it nine hours ago and I had a nap in between that so yay!
Chapter 3:
Cerys woke yawning as she tried to see what the time was on her phone…10:30 flashed at her…10:30! She jumped out of bed in a panic, raced to the bathroom to throw off her clothes, brush her teeth and hair, race back into the room and grab her clothes pulling them on, straightening them, checking herself in the mirror she wiped sleep from the corner of her eye, her panicked brown eyes looked back at her and she slipped into her shoes. Taking only a pen and her key with her she raced out into a deserted hall and jumped down the stairs and ran for the auditorium.
This would be a lot easier if she knew where it was, she decided as she looked around.
"Hey!" someone called in Japanese, Cerys turned to it, a girl was coming up to her.
"Are you going to orientation?" she asked still in Japanese.
"Yes do you know where it is?" Cerys asks the girl nods with a smile and motions for her to follow. They make it into a packed room, they find two empty seats almost at the very back, ignoring the looks she was getting she sat down with the blonde haired girl as the headmistress Ms Yukamara begun her address in Japanese.
"Welcome all to another year, for some this is your first, for others this is your last, some of you have travelled a long way and some still have a ways to go. But no matter your goal you can achieve it, nothing is out of reach when you put your heart into it and most importantly you are never alone and so with this I say enjoy your time while it's here!" the auditorium clapped along with Cerys it was a lot easier to hear Japanese rather than read it for her.
"By the way I'm Sayori" the girl next to her says.
"Hey I'm Cerys" Cerys says with a smile which was returned.
"Are you staying at the dorms?" she whisper asks.
"Yeah are you?" she nods.
"What room?"
"Level 2, Room 12, you?"
"Level 2, Room 13 we're right across the hall!" she says excitedly. The rest of orientation continued as normal a few adults made some speeches and afterwards people could go out to the entrance to collect their schedules once their name was marked off a list. But before they could go, Sensei stood up to mark the roll of people who were here. There where hundreds of people here though so it would take a while but once he called your name and you answered you could go. Cerys and Sayori quietly chatted in the back since Cerys's name wouldn't be called for a while, even by the time they reached L's there was still more than half the auditorium left.
"Light Cerys" she heard called.
"Here" she called back in English by accident she'd forgotten to switch languages and she blushed when someone chuckled. Sensei looked up seeing her in the back and gave her a smile which she returned.
"Wait for me will you?" Sayori asks, Cerys nods remaining in her chair.
"What's your last name?" she asks as Sensei continues.
"Yoshedo, yours is Light?"
"Yeah from my dad"
"So where are you from?" she asks.
"Australia, New South Wales actually"
"Wow what's it like there?"
"Very different to here" she admits, Sayori chuckles.
"Well don't worry I'll help you and you can help me with my English"
"Deal" Cerys agrees with a smile as the list continues. Eventually Sayori's name was called and they headed out to the entrance, students were lined up at booths to get their schedules, Cerys headed for hers.
"Cerys Light" she told the person, they looked at her oddly for a second then realised she had said her first name first and found her, her schedule.
Cerys went back to Sayori who was in a longer line as she skimmed her schedule, the schedule also told her who her teacher would be so she smiled when she saw she had History and Texts with she had to guess that was Sensei. Cerys continued looking at her subjects she only had four, one had to do with writing, another with Japanese Studies as that was her sub major and the last was Ancient History with again! Of all the luck! Cerys smiled brightly she was really going to love this Uni.
"You look happy" a familiar voice in English says to her, Cerys turned to Sensei.
"I'm surprised you can still talk after reading out all those names" Cerys says, Sensei chuckles.
"I had tea this morning so my vocals would survive" Cerys smiled as Sayori came over with her schedule.
"Hey Cerys-chan! What classes do you have?!" she asks not noticing Sensei, Cerys hands over her schedule and Sayori inspects them both.
"We have three of the same classes!" she cheers.
"Cool" Cerys says with a side look to Sensei who doesn't mind being ignored.
"Hey look we have the same teacher for two classes, I wonder what Sensei Shishio's like?"
"You should ask him" Cerys says, indicating to Sensei, Sayori looks to him now realising who was here.
"Oh! I'm sorry Sensei" she says with a bow.
"There's nothing to apologise for, look after that one will you? She's a reckless one, I'll see you both in class it seems"
"You bet you will" Cerys confirms with a smile which was returned before Sensei disappeared into the crowd.
"Wow do you know him?" Sayori asks back to Japanese.
"I met him yesterday he and Ms Yukamara picked me up from the airport"
"Oh that's so cool! Do you know how many girls have a crush on that guy?"
"I'm guessing a lot" Sayori nods handing back Cerys's schedule.
"Oh yeah most of the seniors have called dibs" Cerys shock her head trying not think about it.
"Want to get some lunch?" Sayori asks.
"Yeah that sounds nice"
"Anything in particular you'd like?"
"Nah, you can pick I need to get used to going to different places"
"Have no fear my friend I'll take you everywhere worth going, stick with me" Sayori says with a flick of her hair, Cerys smiles. Yeah she really was looking forward to being here.
