Augustine didn't plan on staying for long. So far, she had meet her other roommates, Musa and Aisha but wanted to find Stella who was the only person she really knew at the school.

"-I always do." She heard Sky say.

Augustine sighed to herself hoping Stella wouldn't be with her. She looked at the size of students huddled in a group surrounding Sky. As he left, she walked up and found Stella glaring at the group of students.

Stella scoffed.

"Enjoy the show?" She spat.

She walked away and Augustine cut through the crowd and followed, "What happened?"

Stella looked visibly irritated when she responded, "Listen, I am not your baby-sitter, you don't have to follow me around."

Stella snapped at her and stormed off in another direction leaving Augustine confused. The students in the corridor looked at her weirdly to which she snapped. "Buzz off!"

Augustine walked to her dorm to finish the painting she had started before leaving Astérix when someone caught her arm.

"That was quite the scene there."

She spun around at the voice of Riven.

She tugged her arm away from him slowly,

"Stella's in a bad mood." She shrugged her shoulders.

Riven nodded, "I can tell. It was something to do with that ginge, what's her name again?"

Augustine rolled her eyes at his nickname for Bloom. "Her names Bloom."

"Shouldn't you be off getting high or something." She snapped suddenly. Her eyes widened at how rude she sounded and went to apologize.

"Sorry, I didn't mean tha-,"

Riven shrugged and ignored her apology. "I was thinking about it but then a very annoyed fairy caught my attention. Mind explaining why?"

Augustine pursed her lips, "I wouldn't say I'm annoyed, just, happy to see my old friend."

She added a cheeky smile at the end.

He had fallen into rythme with her as they walked to her dorm. Augustine looked at him, his eyes shone in the dim light and she couldn't help but admire them.

Realizing that she had been staring for too long, her gaze fell from his eyes to his lips that held a smirk.

"Old friend?"

"Isn't that what you call a friend you haven't spoken to in a while?"

They arrived at her dorm and Augustine briefly wondered how Riven knew where her dorm was. She placed her hand on the door handle and pushed the door open.

"You don't have to stay you know."

Riven shrugged once again, "I have nothing else to do, no else to bother."

He waltzed into the suit and followed Augustine as she went into her room. He watched as she waved her fingers and painting supplies came out.

"You paint?" He asked, looking around the room.

Augustine hummed as picked up a painting mock and put it on. "I use it as a distraction."

She sat on the floor with her legs closed. The half finished canvas in front of her with the paint palette on the side.

Riven wandered over to her vanity and found the frozen purple flowers. His fingers grazed over the flowers, feeling the cool air surrounding them.

"Its still frozen." Augustine said from the ground.

Riven looked at her, "And you still kept it."

He took a seat next to her watching as she started to paint an old willow tree.

Riven recognized it as the willow tree from his childhood.

"Impressive." He mused.

Augustine airily said, "When I left I took some hobbies because it was hard to adjust to everything."

"Hobbies?" Riven echoed.

Augustine tilted her head to her closet door where a pair of skates hung.

"I ice skate too."

They feel into an calm silence before Augustine stood up.

She walked over to get a blank canvas and placed it in front of Riven.

"What?" He asked.

"I think you should paint something." She stated, determined to have him paint.

Riven raised his eyebrow and Augustine just looked down at the blank canvas.

"I dont paint."

"Why not, it's very peaceful."

Riven threw his head back, "I'm not doing this." He groaned.

Augustine took a seat next to him and placed her hands in the paint she had brought. She took her finger which was dripping in paint and drew a line.

"There now you have somewhere to start."

"This is stupid," Riven mumbled as he did the same.

Augustine smiled.

Together, the two of them painted the blank canvas into a colorful blue and purple mess.

"By the way, never tell anyone you were here. Or i'll drown you." Augustine threatened, painting a blue finger at him.

Riven smiled. "My lips are closed."

He watched as Augustine smiled satisfied and returned to painting messily.

This wasn't how he expected to spend his evening but it wasn't a bad turn out for him and he hoped she felt the same.

Authors POV:

the shortest chapter yet! interesting.
Hi everyone, I just came back from vacation procrastinated a bit and decided to write. I actually had no clue how to write Riven and Augustine meeting again like at all. So this is was pulled right out of the blue and it's very sweet and like would never happen in the show but that fine bc this is a fanfic!
Also I was like so tempted to change her outfit that way it would be more fitted for painting but I already described it in the last chapter and i don't wanna edit anything

Tell me what you think!
