!! second pov obvi

"I see.." Arlecchino sighed, crossing her arms as the two of you walked rather briskly to your class. "Well, I suppose it's good I didn't really care about that shirt. Tell me again, why is Rosalyne so against us hanging out?"

You hesitate. Sure, you'd told Arlecchino that much- but you hadn't mentioned the secret relationship (if you could hardly call it that) happening behind the scenes. "She's..always been self conscious with our friendship, I suppose."

Arlecchino tuts and softly shakes her head. "The nerve of that woman," She turns to look at you. "Did you agree? It's fine if you did angel, it's your life. But I just," Arlecchino pauses and shakes her head. "You'd get in trouble if she saw you now then."

"I know," You murmur, looking away. "But..Rosie hardly ever goes to her classes. I'm sure she won't find out."

Arlecchino spares her a scoff. "It's a wonder she's passing."

"Right," You shake your head, reaching up to rub at your neck. "Arle...if- if someone was 'dating' you, for a few years, but still wanted to keep things secret, what would you do?"

"Dump their ass and find someone better," Arlecchino gives you a look. "Why?"

You pause. "Oh, friend from highschool is still having that happen to her."

"Poor girl," Arlecchino crosses her arms. "I don't understand why people do that," She looks back at you. "Speaking of angel, in all my years of knowing you..I don't think i've ever seen you with another person."

You offer a small shrug. "I guess I just..don't bother dating."

Arlecchino's eyes flashed slightly, you can't make out what emotion but whatever it is caused her to quiet for a few seconds. "But..if someone did ask, would you dismiss them?"

"Hm?" You furrow your brows and look over. "No, I don't think. I'm not sure. Why?"

Arlecchino offers you a smile and a shrug. "I was just wondering angel, that's all."

"Would you turn them down?" You question lightly, as you approach your classroom with few minutes to spare. Arlecchino stops you outside the door.

"I would not," She hesitates. "As long as I like them back anyway." She then leans down and pats your head. "Be good in class. Want me to pick you up? Or would Rosalyne see?"

You sigh softly. "She picks me up after classes...we can maybe, meet in the library?"

"Sounds lovely. I heard Lisa is in need of helpers, we should volunteer." Arlecchino pulls away and nods at you with a playful glint in her eyes. "It would surely be a coincidence if we both joined to help."

You grin and nod. "Oh yes, it definitely would."

The corners of her lips twitch up and she pats your shoulder. "Hmm, I suppose I won't be seeing you later then, right?" She murmurs softly.

"Right," You chuckle. "You're such a dork."

"And then Rosaria calls me out of nowhere, I swear I need to lose her number." Rosalyne hisses, crossing her arms and looking over at you with a look of skepticism. "What's up with you? You're so..giddy."

"Nothing," You smile. "I'm volunteering as a helper at the library."

Rosalyne makes a disgusted face. "Ick, that nasty old place? Heard Lisa's being extremely desperate and asking anyone to join. I wouldn't be caught dead there," She pauses, noticing your sudden frown. "Of course, you can do whatever babe!"
