Amity POV:

Edric walked off with Luz following behind him, taking her to show her how to correctly set up his drums. Boscha leaned onto the table, her eyes following what I was writing for a moment. 

Emira walked over as well, grabbing one of the bags of candy and pulling it open. "So~" She popped a few of them into her mouth, chewing for a moment before swallowing. "When are you gonna taste the rainbow?" 

"Can you be any less subtle?" I hissed, slamming my pen down on the table. Emira thought for a moment, tapping her finger to her chin. Boscha looked at her, then to me. 

"They could've said why don't you go kiss Luz Mittens?" The three eyed witch quipped with a smirk. "Wouldn't that be less subtle?" 

"You know, sometimes when I ask a question, I don't want an answer." I growled, punching the three eyed witch in the shoulder. She laughed it off, rolling her shoulder a few times. I then turned to my sister, pointing a finger at her. "And you're lucky I haven't put you two under the ground yet." 

"Aw c'mon Mittens, you'll thank us for this in the future!" Emira winked, placing a finger gun under her chin. 

"Which future? The one where Luz never wants to speak to me again because she hates me? Oh yeah, I'll definitely thank you then." Emira rolled her eyes and Boscha snorted. "I'm serious Em! I don't even know what she likes." 

"Drumming, magic, that book series you like..." Boscha counted off, her voice slowly turning to a murmur and she continued to list things off.  

"That's not what I meant!" I snapped back, Boscha put her hands up defensively. 

"Oh, you meant in that way." She muttered, looking at my sister. Boscha fake coughed, struggling to suppress a smile before breaking down into laughter. Emira placed a hand on my shoulder while Boscha fell to the floor laughing. 

"Mittens, sis..." Emira had to pause, clearing her throat to get her to stop laughing. "One look at that girl and I can tell you she swings for both teams." As if on cue, Edric and Luz walked back in the room. 

I glanced back at the two of them, watching as Edric made a few motions with his hands. Sighing, I turned back around and continued to write, listening as their footsteps both got closer. 

"What's going on here?" Edric questioned as Boscha picked herself up off the floor, wiping her eyes. Luz moved to my left, bending down and leaning on the table. My ears went down slightly at her presence, but I struggled to hide it. 

Boscha was still struggling to speak, her body overtaken by chuckles. So Emira decided to fill in for her. "Just Mittens being Mittens." Edric nodded, thankfully not asking any more questions. Luz leaned over, her eyes scanning over my notebook for a moment. 

"Are you writing lyrics?" She asked, her voice soft compared to Edric and Emira's voices as they struck up a conversation. I gave a bitter chuckle, lightly throwing my pen down. 

"Trying to." I muttered, staring down at the few lyrics I wrote down. 

"Mind if I try?" I looked up at her, noticing the suppressed excitement in her voice and the stars in her eyes. But, before I could give her an answer, Edric cut in for me. 

"Yeah Mittens let her have a shot at it!" He chided, leaning on the back of my chair. "It'd sure take a load off of your shoulders, and besides, wouldn't hurt to see things in a new light, right?" I looked back at him, noticing that his ears were flapping softly, barely enough to move the tips of his ears. 

It wasn't like he was wrong, it would take a lot off of my shoulders. But, I didn't want to just pawn that off to Luz, especially since she just started. Sighing, I turned to face Luz, who was bouncing up and down in anticipation.
