"(y/n)? what are you doing here?"

hitch lifted designer glasses, showcasing those sharp almond-shaped hazel eyes. they were fierce but questioning, one of her thin eyebrows lifted in anticipation. she held a large designer duffle bag closely, hair a little frizzier than usual, most likely due to the cheer practice she'd just been released from.

on the girls right stood annie, hand gently gripping the guitar strap that laid upon her shoulder. the blonde could almost always be spotted around school with that same guitar, whether it was for aesthetic purposes or genuine interest nobody knew. this was because the female never actually let anyone catch her playing it.

annie was the type to find any human emotion embarrassing, including happiness. how she was friends with hitch you hadn't quite cracked that one yet. the two were like rock and water, substantially different but could make a good team in certain instances, like an aquarium.

what a coincidence.

smiling at the two kindly, it'd been a bit embarrassing being caught on an aquarium field trip aquatinted by arlert, the one in the sex-for-homework-answers rumor.

"armin."
"oh hey, annie."

the two blondes shared an awkward moment of greeting, naturally on a sociable footing due to a common interest in ap classes. she'd been smart, surprisingly for the likes of a delinquent. her eyes somberly watched over him carefully, then made their way back up to the full picture again.

"is this like a tutoring field trip or something? or maybe, a date!"

this is how hitch's, a gossip-hungry individual such as herself, mind worked. it was natural instinct, a second nature. there was no coming back from this now, the whole group would know within the next hour, and the school would've already elaborated the idea by tomorrow morning.

curse you for agreeing to go on this little outing, if this had just stayed in the library where no relevant people ever stepped foot in, this would not be an issue.

but no, the wheels in hitch's brain could be heard creaking, already planning several ways to come out with this shocking news:

(y/n) and armin are so totally going out!

you could already hear it, squeal and everything.

"are you guys together, together?"

"we're at an aquarium, hitch. not eloping."

what in the world was with your luck this afternoon? since when did delinquent almost-dropout and little miss popular have any interest in fish, on this day of all days. of course you two happened to be making a merry way out of this dump at the exact time these two were entering.

"i didn't know you were into girls like this, armin."

had you ever heard annie speak more than five words in a row, absolutely not. up until today her vocabulary was minimal, a few no's short of nonexistent. again, how in the world were these two friends.
