Prompt: After seeing Claude stealing Fanny's phone to get her attention (and a kiss too!), Granger thinks he can do the same to Guinevere despite his insecurities. Too bad the ginger has a death grip and isn't what she makes out to be.

Dismissal was a blur. Soon enough Granger reluctantly found himself with his so-called 'friends' against one of the many pristine walls of Moonton Academy, the distinct smell of smoke tainting the air around their vicinity. Their usual spot was under the skyway of their university, near the east wing. The teachers rarely pass by that area anyways since they go out their separate exit, so their hangout under the glass bridge was chosen, making them look like a group of leather-bound trolls.

Granger scrunched his nose as Alucard lit another stick, his previous reduced to a small stub. Out of all his other buddies (who were only Gusion and Claude, save for Zilong who rarely joined their escapades), Alucard seemed to take the phrase 'Happy Friday' to a whole 'nother level, getting higher than the others. 

Right now, only Alucard, Claude, Fanny -- Claude's current girlfriend who was somehow looking at Alucard with a look of pity, disappointment, and wonder at the same time -- and himself were present. Miya could've been there too, except she and Alucard seemed to be in one of their 'off' moments. Oh... So that's why Alucard was like that.

The raven haired guy turned his head away from the scene of Alucard making friends with the floor-- or grass?

In the distance, Granger could make out the familiar silhouette of a certain ginger haired girl; her oversized light purple knitted cardigan covering the majority of her simple uniform. Granger remembered one of the few times they interacted, one of the times was when she corrected him saying that her special cardigan was "lavender" and not just "light purple". As much as he didn't want to admit it, he found it cute when she would make little sweater paws... And her giggles... Argh! No!

He shook his head to clear his thoughts. Maybe the pot got to him. She was way too far up in the social spectrum for him.

"Hey! Give it back, asshole!" Fanny's annoyed voice cut his self thoughts off. Turning his head towards the pink tipped blonde's voice, Granger saw Claude holding her phone above his head, making Fanny jump to try to get it back.

"You forgot something." Claude smirked down at the self proclaimed 'punk princess', lazily waving her phone above her head.

Fanny kicked his shin, "Please?" She said through gritted teeth but he shook his head and bent down a little, pointing to his cheek and making smooch sounds while tucking Fanny's phone in his back pocket.

Rolling her eyes, she cupped Claude's cheeks roughly and pecked his lips. One of her hands slid down and snatched her phone from his back pocket.

"OOOOHHHH!!~" Alucard hollered like a schoolgirl, ruining the moment. But the other two just kept shoving their tongues in each other's throats.

Turning away from his 'friends', Granger looked at Guinevere who was currently at the side of the road, probably waiting for her ride home. Not that he was a stalker or anything, but he knew that she should already be driving off by now with her brother who graduated a few years ago.

The raven-haired guy then remembered his motorcycle that was parked nearby. Maybe he can give her a ride?

But Guinevere is too out of your league. A little voice inside his head reminded him, but Granger continued to stare at the girl in the distance.
