just talk to her, easier said then done, how could he do that it was him. it was at times like this that armin would go to the one place he was always welcome, the university study rooms.
each room had an assortment of different things in order to cater to different subject, the science study rooms were filled with lots of lab equipment, the math study rooms were filled with all kinds of mathematics equations and tools, the music study room had a number of stands and even a piano, and finally the language room was filled with books this is where armin spent most of his time.
as he sat in a plush couch and read it suddenly dawned on him that it wasn't quiet like usual, there was the sound of a signal violin that could be heard echoing through the halls. each note seemed to be played with such pain and passion it almost brought a tear to his eyes.
armin in curiosity went in search of the music, following its sound to the end of the hall where the music room sat. in the room he saw a lone figure turned away from the door passionately preforming a part from what he could recall as a part of Mozart's 40th symphony. the figure seemed to be pouring all of themselves into the piece, adding in sections, replacing others swaying with each note, each count even.
so lost in there passion the figure didn't notice when armin slowly slipped in to the room for a better listen. he didn't know how long he stood there listening to the figures beautiful melody. it wasn't until the figure finished the peace and at the sound of clapping from armin did they tern notice he was there. the figure slowly turned around to see who was there revealing themselves to be Annie leonhart.
finally realizing who it was armin blushed under Annie stern questioning gaze.
"hey annie" armin stammer. "you played really well"
"oh ...a ... tha .. thank you armin" she replayed. his heart jumped when he realized that she knew his name"
"do you play?" annie asked after a short silence.
"well i know a little piano" armin said not sure what to do.
"could you play something for me; i mean if you want" she said brushing a lock of hair away from her face.
"uh ... well i guess i could play something" armin said confidence streaming into him as he made his way to the piano at the back of the room.
