[Yuuya's POV]
I was pretty skeptical about taking a music class, especially at a high school level. But I didn't have very many choices.
Just one more class after this, and I'd be home free. The music room was absolutely freezing. The people in this class all looked extremely serious. They all sat in the hard metal chairs, arms and legs folded, eyebrows arched, staring the director dead in the face while he talked about expectations...or something. I didn't pay much attention.
At the complete opposite end of the room was Armin, the awkward blonde that seemed to be everywhere I was. I wasn't complaining, he seemed very nice. None of my friends came to this high school, so I thought I'd be a loner for a while. Perhaps not. I wasn't sure what to expect.
Armin happened to look my way. I waved. He waved back. Was that weird? I asked myself. Whatever. If he thinks I'm strange that'll make two of us.

This class was finally over. These "serious" upperclassmen were making me nervous. As I made my way to the door, I felt a tap on my shoulder. "Hey. Seems like our paths never stop crossing." I turned and saw Armin walking behind me. "Uh... yeah. sure seems that way." As he stepped outside, the breeze hit his face and his glossy blonde hair blew behind him, revealing his perfect pale skin and really... beautiful blue eyes.
Like, wow.
His eyes were a blue brighter than the clearest Carribean ocean water. They were mesmerizing. "So why'd you take the music class?"
I realized he just asked me a question. "Oh, well, honestly, I have no clue what possessed me to take it. All the art classes were full, and this seemed like the only class that wouldn't bore me to tears. What about you?"
Armin kind of smiled. "Well you see, my grand-" He was cut off by a raven haired girl popping out of... nowhere really and grabbing him by the ear.
"Armin, where the hell were you at lunch?" she demanded. "Eren was worried."
Woah, she looks intense, I thought. Is that like, his girlfriend or something? (I was actually wrong about that, by the way.) "Ow! Mikasa... agh... excuse me a second," Armin said, nervously laughing.
A brunette boy appeared from around a corner. His face lit up at the sight of Armin. "Armin! My wittle blonde babu~"
"What is wrong with you people? Have the druggies at this school gotten to you already?" This girl's expression seemed to never change. "See? Eren was worried." "Oh, so you're only worried because Eren was worried? I see the friendship we share. Eren, stop hugging me, dammit."
The girl turned to me and looked at me with Evil Eyes. "Who are you?" she asked. "Me? Oh, I'm Yuuya Mochizuki." I held out my hand. "Cool," she said, completely ignoring the handshake I offered. Um, okay, I thought.
"I called you guys and no one answered me. So don't yell at me."
The girl turned to the two boys. "Whatever. You two are making me late. Be one time afterschool or you can walk home. "
"Yeah, okay 'Kasa."
"Geez. So uptight." Armin looked at me. "You'll have to excuse them. Theyre not quite all there. But she's right. We better go or we'll be late. "
I was a bit weirded out by the other two. "Oh, yeah. Well I'll see you soon."
"Sure."
(Time skip- 5 minutes)
As I sat in class, I realized that being in a music class meant I actually had to play an instrument. I vowed I wouldn't make this mistake next year and get into art at all costs.
All day Id done nothing but listen to people talk. I pulled out my sketchbook. I thought about Armin's stunning eyes. I'd never seen someone with a color like that. I drew a pair of eyes with wispy lashes.
I'd color them blue when I got home.
