Him

I guess this is the beginning...

-females are the problem in the world today. Nevertheless, they make life worth living.

6:30 am

Briiiiiiiing, briiiiiiiiiiiiing.
Stretching lazily, I smacked the hideous alarm clock right down from the dresser- the damn thing really was ugly.

It landed with a satisfying thud as it made contact with the wooden floor, immediately falling silent.
I smiled widely. If Grace had been here, she’d have said to shut the f****** thing up anyway.
She cursed too much. I found it quite adorable.

It was one of the many things I loved about her.

I allowed my eyelids droop close halfway as I observed the breaking dawn through a crack in the window. It’d nearly be time to get up and get to work bossing people around.

Ridiculously satisfying, that.

I had to grin thinking about what Grace would say to that. God, I loved being around Grace. I wondered idly how many times she’d tell me to off myself today. I made a calculated guess.

Stretching briefly, I eased out from under my bunk, careful not to wake my bunk mate- yet anyways. Even in the semi darkness I made my way easily to the door. Pulling on my boots, I stepped out, into the dawn.

My name is Alyx and this is my turf.
