a grand army story
it all started with a little art history
after everything joey went through at her old high school she tried to stay as invisible as one can be in a situation so complicated but she fails, after getting paired up with malakai ev...

when i turn my head to look at joey i see her already looking at me
"what?" i question starting to get a bit flustered
she just shakes her head, chuckling and starts walking away to the art class. art is a optional course but the teacher is amazing and honestly who doesn't love art.
i widen my eyes and start walking a bit faster to catch up to her
"wait joey is there something on my face" i ask sounding a bit frantic. she stops walking and turns to me
"no dumbass" i furrow my eyebrows while she grabs my hand and starts dragging me to the class we both share
"come on hurry up" she groans. i scoff lightly at her
"we have like ten minutes to get to art class" i glance at the clock to make sure im correct
"yeah but we have to get the best seats" she reminds me sounding offended i didn't think about that
"okay but it's literally just us and vee and they always sit at the front of the classroom" i say squeezing her hand and when she looks at me i just smile at her. vee is the first person i met her. they were sitting alone at lunch and i was the new kid so since then w always sit together, michelle joined our little group a bit later and now joey's joined
"but what if there's someone new who joined" she raises her eyebrow at me "bet you didn't think of that option huh?" i give her a playfull glare
"as if anyone would be as cool as us" she just rolls her eyes and we finally reach our destination.
she let's go of my hand to open the class door wide enough for us to go inside
"girls" miss dyer exclaims "i thought you two weren't coming" the small, older womengives us a soft smile as her green eyes shimmer from the sun that's shinning though the multiple windows in the room.
"how could we skip our favorite class" joey says walking to the back of the class where we normally sit so we can talk and listen to music
miss dyers just laughs while i stop by vee and give them a hug
"hey vee how's your day going" i ask while glancing down at their small notebook filled with pencil sketches
"today's actually been decent. what about you?" they ask while resting their head on their palm
"i didn't get much sleep but other then that pretty great" they mumble a im glad and i start going to the back to where joeys sitting.
i start taking out some things from my bag after glancing up to make sure miss dyer hasn't started the class yet. i grab my small sketch pad, a pencil case,some paper and my teal water bottle that's plastic so you can see how much waters inside.
i put all of my things on the table and turn to joey to see her looking out the window
i softly hit her leg under the table to her her attention. she turns to me slightly confused
"here" i hand her the water bottle.
"what for?" she asks taking the bottle with hesitation
"i know you've probably not drank any water today so please drink some" she looks slightly taken aback
"thank you" she says softly looking at me
"any time" i playfully wink at her and turn my head to look at the teacher in front of the class, missing the way joey looked at me with so much appreciation
"alright class let's get started. today i want you to make a sketch of absolutely anything you want and then next class we're going to use watercolors to add the finishing touches" miss dyer says and writes some keywords of what she said on the white board in front of the class
"i suggest you make a small sketch in your notebooks to gather your ideas and then you can get started on A4 paper, if you need more supplies you can get them right here" she says while tapping the cabinet under the white board "and as always feel free to listen to music and use your phones for inspiration as long as you do it quietly oh and if you have any questions just ask" she adds and sends us a wink.
she goes back to her computer to do some work and joey bumps her shoulder into mine and offers me one of her earphones that are plugged into her phone i take it from her and put them in my ear while she goes on spotify and shuffles the playlist she specifically made for art class.
i get stared on a small skech of a senary of the great salt lake in utha and find some inspiration pictures on pinterest
the class passes pretty quickly as it always does
i guess drawing and talking to joey while listening to music is a great pass time
