School, September 18th, 11:30am

Mr. Krei was taking attendance, Hiro sat on the floor by himself, twiddling with his thumbs.

Penny and Violet were talking, and Hiro was desperate to know what they were talking about but he didn't eavesdrop.

Krei clapped his hands together, standing up. "Okay class! Today we're starting with improv exercises! I need two volunteers!"

"I'll do it!" Hiro and Violet yelled in unison.

"Okay perfect, You two get up then."

They look at each other nervously.

Both awkwardly stood up and walked to the front of the class.

"Now, you two improvise. Before you start, class We need you to call out a place, a thing, and a situation."

Penny thought for a moment and raised her hand.

"Yes penny?" Krei looked at her.

"They're at school, with nothing, making up after a fight."

Hiro and Violet shot a look at Penny, and looked back at each other.

"Okay, Begin."

"Hey. Vi- I'm so sorry about what happened." Hiro looked at her,

Violet looked away. Biting her lip.

"Violet. Please listen to me."

"Why would I apologize to you. You keep saying everything is okay. But it isn't. You keep lying to me." Violet looked at him.

"Okay fine! I'm not okay! I just don't want to admit it! I'm really scared!"

Violet looked at him, she frowned.

"I know.." she replied. "I am too."

Hiro looked at her, his hands were shaking.

Violet grabbed his hands, "I... I forgive you. Just please don't lie to me ever again."

"Thank you." He hugged her.

Violet looked surprised but slowly hugged him back.

Penny smiled, and sighed in relief.

"Wow- good job you two- that felt really real-" Krei blinked, surprised.

They stopped hugging and looked at the class. "Thanks I guess-" Hiro laughed, as Violet laughed along.

Violet and Hiro went to sit down beside Penny.

"Your welcome." She smirked.

"Oh shut up." Hiro laughed a bit more.

Violet smiled.

Class had ended, and they left the portable.

"So... Hiro. Tell us. What's been bothering you."

Hiro looked down, "Vi, Penny, I think it's time we talk."
