Arcane, Highschool AU

A New Place.

Caitlin's POV

Vi and I were packing up the last of her things when Jinx came in and looked around the room. She lent against the door frame and asked. "So do I get to redesign?" Vi looked over to her sister and nodded before hugging her. "Be as creative and crazy as you want. This is your room now. Powder." They hugged again, and I picked up a small rabbit toy. "Oh, we don't need to bring him. Here Jinx." Vi said before giving the toy to Jinx. "Look after him." Jinx nodded and hugged the rabbit.

We finished up packing Vi's clothes and then carried them down to Vander's truck. We got in, and I held Vi's hand. "It's not forever Vi, we will come back for holidays and after my two years." I said, smiling. "I know. I'm looking forward to our new home."

I smiled and hugged Vi before starting the truck.

Vi's POV

Once at our flat, we started to load the boxes in. "This is very nice. It's bigger than I thought it was going to be." I said whilst exploring the kitchen and living room. Cait opened the door to the bedroom and squealed. "Vi! This mattress looks so comfy!" She then jumped onto the bed and sighed. "Amazing!" I smiled and crawled onto the bed next to her. "This is nicer than your old bed." I said as I rested my head onto her chest. "Why's that Vi?" She asked. I smiled and showed that my arm went over the bed. "It's smaller. So I get to hold you, and you can't role away." Cait laughed and kissed my nose. "You are so cute." I blushed a got up.

"It's time to unpack." I said before picking Cait up and carrying her back down to get boxes. "We only just finished unpacking." Cait whinned, and I put her down. "Fine, but lets put them in the flat, then unpack what we need for tonight. Then we can get takeout."

"Sounds like a plan."

The next day.

Caitlin's pov

After we upacked our personal items, I grabbed the list of things we needed, such as kitchen ware and food.

"Hey Vi want to go shopping with me?" I asked as I checked the list over. "Yes...! We need to paint these slickly green walls!" She beemed before putting her shoes on. "Okay, but essentials first." I said and kissed her quickly before we headed out.

Once at the shop, we grabbed a cart and made our way around the isles. "Okay, let's divide and concer. You go get the items on this half of the list, and I'll get the others." I said and then handed Vi her half. "Okay, Cupcake, I'll be back in a minute." Vi kissed my head and left. So I found the bread section and grabbed Vi's favourite. "Hey, good looking." I heard someone say from behind me. "Hello, sweet cheeks." He continued after I turned away. "What do you want?"

I asked him and started to walk off with my trolly. "I just want to talk to you, Sweetie." I rolled my eyes at him and carried on shopping. He's just a perv. He'll walk away if I ignore him. He kept throwing 'compliments' at me until he got inpatient.

The man grabbed my wrist and pushed me up against the shelf. "Listen here, Sweetie, I don't like not getting what I want, and right now, you are that thing." I tried to push him off, but he was too strong, so I called out. "Vi! Help me!" The man covered my mouth, but it was too late. A fist came racing by me to punch him in the face. But it was not Vi's hand.

A tall man stood before me and gave me a caring smile. "Hey, it's okay." He said as I started to cry. The man got up and laughed. "Oh, come on, then tubby, let's fight." He said whilst getting into a fighting pose. "Two against one, buddy." I heard Vi say as she rushed around the corner. I grabbed onto her and hugged her close. "Vi! Please never leave me alone again." I pleaded as tears rushed down my face. "I'm here, Cupcake, you're okay." She said as she soothed me.

"Ugh, you're gay? I don't want that tainted shit, I'm out of here." The Perv said before leaving. I held onto Vi's jacket so tight that my nuckles went white. "He's gone now Cupcake, he can't hurt you." I stopped crying and looked over to my rescuer. "Thank you for saving me there." I smiled, and he answered. "I had just come into the isle and was going to take him away from you, but when you called out for your girlfriend, I knew I had to act."

Vi shook his hand and smiled. "My name's Vi, and this is my girlfriend, Caitlin." The man grinned and said. "My name is Clagger. It was lovely meeting you two, but I have to rush. I have a class in an hour." Vi nodded, but I asked. "Do you go to the Enforcers Academy?" He nodded, and before I knew it, he was gone, and we had his number.

Back at their flat.

Caitlin's POV

I made dinner for the two of us whilst Vi was painting our bedroom wall. I started plating up the pasties and chips and then put them on the table. "Vi, dinner's ready." I called, and soon enough, she appeared, covered in paint of all different colours. "Couldn't pick a colour for our walls?" I asked which Vi was going to answer, but her notification went off, and she looked at the email.

"Sorry, but we are not accepting people without a full education list. Hope your job search goes well." Vi read out to me.

Wait a minute. "That's a nice way of saying they don't want you because you are from Zaun." I sighed and ate my food. "Yeah, a lot of places are saying that, or something similar." Vi agreed with me and ate some of her food. "Hmm, this is very nice, my wifey." Vi said with a smirk on her lips. "I'm not your housewife, Violet! So wipe the smirk off your face." Vi laughed and then continued. "No, it's really good, Cait, but it looks like I'll be the housewife and this rate."

"You'll find something." I frowned and moved over to Vi and sat on her lap facing her. "Need any comforting tonight?" I winked, which made Vi blush. "Hmm..." Was all Vi could muster out. "You'll have to clean that mess up first, and we'll have to wait until the room doesn't smell like paint." I said as I got off of her and ate more of my dinner. "But that takes effort!" She whinned.

I just laughed and finished up my dinner. "Okay, whinny bum, I'll help you clean up if you will be my pillow princess." Vi nodded eagerly and finished up her food.

Once we cleaned the plates, I entered our room to see a beautiful tree with multi-coloured leaves on it, painted onto our wall. "Wow, Vi you did this? I knew you did graphite, but this is insane." Vi blushed at my comments, so I teased her by saying. "So cute when you are embrassed." Vi goaned and started to clean up the paints.

I quickly took a picture of the wall and put it on my Instagram. I then helped clean up the mess, and Vi waisted no time in getting me undressed.

Vi's POV

The next morning, I woke up entangled with Caitlin's body and the sheet to the sound of her phone buzzing. She was getting a lot of notifications, so I nudged her awake and gave Cait her phone. "Oh my, Oh my, Vi! Your tree has blown up! You're vrial. And look, an email from a cafe owner says they want you to paint a mural for them."

We were both so excited, and I couldn't wait to start painting for money. I kissed Cait and rolled myself into her, and stared to mould her skin. "Mmm, Vi come on, we both need a shower."

I nodded and went to stand up, but my legs were so weak, so I fell back onto the bed. "Sorry." Cait said before laughing and helping me up and towards the shower.
