Here we are, standing in front of the changing room, feeling very awkward each time a guy comes out, some looking at us strangely and some ... looking at us with their hormones activated. Where is Viktor? Did he leave already? Dang it. Just when I was about to tell Noelle to leave, Viktor came out wearing black jeans, an army green bomber jacket with combat boots and might I say he has a good sense of style unlike the guys that came out before. Although, "Armin" has an equally acceptable sense of style as he is wearing a grey hoodie, jeans paired with black trainers as well as a pair of black rimmed glasses. Simple. Casual. And chill.

Because he was rather occupied with his chat with "Armin", he didn't notice me and Noelle standing nearby, so I took this opportunity to scare him from behind. After giving my bag to Noelle, I slowly crept up behind him and,

"BOO!"

"AHHHHHHHHHHH"

"Hahahahaha, oh man! Y-your f-ace!" In case you didn't know, the one who screamed was me. While I tried to steady my beating heart, I can see Viktor bending over and holding his stomach, laughing his heart out.

"Oh man, your reaction was so adorable! Even your scream was cute!" Viktor said while laughing between a couple of words. I could my face turn as red as strawberry from two things: embarrassment and anger. But more embarrassment than anger. From behind me, I could also hear Noelle chuckling to herself, which made me more embarrassed! Curse you Viktor!

"Sh-shut up! How did you know I was coming from behind you anyway?" I retorted back at him. Viktor then replied,

"Actually, I didn't know it was you. I just saw a shadow creeping up from behind me, so I knew someone was trying to jump scare me although I thought everyone at school knew that I'm practically immune to them," after hearing that, gradually I turned around to face my friend of many years and said in a calm, threatening voice,

"I know you knew about this and you didn't tell me?" Noelle just shrugged her shoulders at this as if it wasn't her fault. Being the more antisocial one out of the both of us, I relied Noelle to tell me about stuff like this so I don't embarrass myself. Yet, she betrayed me and allowed me to make a fool out myself. Why is the world so cruel? Insert sad face here.

"Hey, hey, hey. It's okay, don't get mad," Viktor lightly grabbed my forearm and assured me. Now that he turned me around to face him, I can clearly see his titan green eyes and oh my gawd! They are so beautiful, I'm gonna cry.

"Fine, I won't get mad IF you accept my gift I got for you as a thank you, for inviting me and Noelle out, and for winning this match, YAY!" I responded merrily,

"What? Seriously? You didn't have to, you know. It's normal to invite a friend," as Viktor complained, I got the bento bag from Noelle and told Viktor,

"Don't worry, it's nothing expensive. It's just food. Plus, me and Noelle don't have an excuse to go out often, so this a good change. Now the problem here is where should we eat?" just out of habit, I started walking ahead aimlessly, with Noelle following me so I don't get lost.

"Armin", who was quiet the whole time, spoked up, "There's a cafeteria nearby, so we can eat there". Noelle then said,

"Great. Now let's gooooo! I'm starving," laughing at Noelle's antic, we strolled to the cafeteria while talking about random subjects. During the small talk, I learned that "Armin's" real name is Axel, which is a pretty dang cool name. Dragging me by the arm, Noelle brought us to the cafeteria in no time. Modern. That's one word to describe the cafeteria. It's even better than I expected. I thought it was gonna be like the school's cafeteria, which... I rather not think about. There were two floors connected by a staircase in the inner part of the room. They were filled with plastic tables and chairs, the area under the second floor was the kitchen part and there was a station where you put the dishes when you're done with them. Surprisingly, there weren't many people, so we got a table near the entrance. Noelle excitedly sat down on the table, before the rest of us got there, and waited for us to hurry up as well as shouting,
