Flopping his head onto the other side of his pillow Knox slowly let his eyes close again until his brain registered what it had seen, the clock that sat on his bedside table read 8:25.
“Shit!” came flying out of his mouth as he attempted to untangle himself from the sheets. As he stumbled out of bed his foot got caught in his blankets and he went crashing to the floor. “Holy mother of fucking Jesus!” he yelped as he got up and pulled on his pants and his button up school uniform shirt. He thought screw the tie and socks, Knox pulled on his shoes and haphazardly made his way out of the dorm heading towards his first period with Professor Atheris.
Hurrying down the hallway he tried to push his hair into submission while he thought why this always had to happen? Without meaning to he would end up late for class at least three out of the five days of school. Knox wasn't cut out for early mornings, he was an insomniac and so he naturally always ended up snoozing in late or during class. The sun (more accurately the artificial sun) always made him sleepy and he knew why. Knox had the power to control darkness he just wasn't very good at it.
