Amber was walking to school with her friends. They were having a conversation, but she couldn't concentrate on what they were saying. Her mind kept drifting off to the encounter with Eula yesterday.
She's so goddamn attractive. Amber knew that, but she also knew that Eula didn't take love very seriously and liked playing with people's emotions. Amber felt stupid for wanting to get to know her better.

"Hey Amber, what's up?" Someone touched her shoulder. "Kaeya! Gosh, you scared me..." Amber laughed fakely. "Everything's alright?" "Yeah... Just thinking."

They walked together to their class and Kaeya sat next to Rosaria. There were only two seats left. Next to Pallad and... Eula.
Nobody likes Pallad, but nobody likes Eula either. Amber smiled brightly as she confidently walked up to Eula and put her hands on the table to get her attention.
"Hm? Oh it's you. You can sit here. It's not like anybody else would." She smiled and gestured to the space next to her. Amber grimaced and let herself fall on the chair.
"What are you drawing?" Asked Amber and leaned closer to her classmate.
"You." Said the blue haired girl amused and leaned closer, their noses almost touching.
But before Amber could react, Eula was already in her prior position and continued drawing strokes on the paper Amber's eyes.
"I- wow. You're pretty good." Her face was as red as a ruby as a shudder went down her spine.

Eula smirked and the teacher, Mr. Albedo, entered the classroom. Science isn't really a fun subject, but some kids seem to enjoy it. Cough sucrose cough.
"Alright, you'll be doing a group project about any substance we've learned about in this school year. The group can consist of two to four people-" everyone began talking loudly, drowning the short males voice. He sighed.

"Hey Amber do you want to join our group?" "Hey I wanted to ask that!" "Can you please join mine? I'll buy you a coffee at lunch!"
Amber laughed. "Eh... Actually-" "she's working with me." Eulas cold voice cut through the enthusiastic atmosphere. The students students looked at her and then retreated to their seats, mumbling phrases like "I would've been better..." And "why her?"

"Eula, do you really want to work with me?" Amber turned to look at her classmate. "Yeah sure. but I don't know, depends if you're ready to sacrifice some of your popularity for me." "Hm.. It'll be alright!" Amber grinned.
"Oh yeah, here's my number, we can make a date then," Amber giggled. Eula raised her eyebrow, "oh?" "Like for the studying and stuff-" she hid her face in her hands slightly. "'And stuff'?" Eula smirked and leaned back in her chair. "Amber stayed quiet as her mind went bdjsvsudg.

The bell rang and the blue-haired girl stood up and grabbed the paper with Amber's phone number and her bag. "See ya around, bunny." She ruffled the cheerleaders hair before going out of the classroom.

A dark-skinned male walked up to Amber, "hey Amber, is this bitch bullying you!? If yes you can tell me, I'll make her stop in a heartbeat." "Wha- no, no she's not..?" Kaeya looked skeptical at his friend. "Sure..."

After school Amber was exhausted. First science then maths and P. E. in the end aren't exactly fun.
She opened Instagram on the way home.

The cat's tail 🐾 and 4 other people posted in their stories...

She swipped through the profiles. Diona got another cat... Barbara made an ootd... Rosaria drinking... Oh. She stopped.

Vengeance_4evr posted a shacky picture of a hand holding a cigarette with a sentence written in white: bruh my parents kicked me out again 💀

Amber squinted her eyes at the display and could make out some plants and concrete on the floor.

Today? Amber frowned and decided to send her a message.
-

Hey Eula, are you okay? :(

To no surprise there was no answer. She was probably asleep.

Amber put her phone in her pocket and walked the rest of her way home, thinking about the Lawrence daughter.
