The crowd of students slowly started heading to the open space in front of the temporary stage. It was less than an hour before the sun would set and it was finally time for medals to be given out to the winners of the various competitions.
This also meant that all the students were heading back to the Field again, even those that had gone as far out as the college grounds.
Alois fell into this category, he had to return to the Field to accept his reward so reluctantly he dragged himself out of bed to get dressed.
Cecil rolled over drowsily when Alois left the bed they had been sharing. "Where are you going?"
Alois looked away from his wardrobe with a pleasant expression. "Did I wake you?"
Cecil was dressed in his silk shirt and lying in his bed with his marks all over him. It made Alois want to forfeit his medal and just get back in bed with him but he couldn't do that.
"No." Cecil yawned and stretched, still looking sleepy.
