For some reason, this made Vera go even redder. She shrugged, attempting –and horribly failing– to fein noncholance. "You choose.", she told him, echoing her words from the night before.

Tay nodded and broke into a smile, "I'll play Sweet Caroline, it's my favorite." he closed his eyes and put the bow to the strings, and started to play, melting into the music.
Vera swayed slightly, a ridiculous smile on her face. Enraptured by Tay’s beautiful playing, she glued her eyes on him, leaning forward and resting her chin on her fist.

Tay made the violin sing, it captured his troubles and pain, but also his love and his joy, and he poured all of it into this song, for Vera to listen to.
Vera could tell how much effort and emotion Tay was putting into his playing as she was spun around in a gentle blaze of harmonious notes, all strung together in what seemed to her like a masterpiece. She sat, mouth hanging slightly open in awe.
Tay finished his song, cheeks pink and flushed and grinning. He took a small bow and put the violin back into the case.

Vera clapped as hard as she could, a ridiculously wide smile stuck fast to her face. “That was amazing! How long have you been playing?”
Tay blushed, "Since I was five." he clicked the lock shut and brushed his hand on the case lovingly, "It was a nice escape from..stuff."
“That was beautiful.”, Vera said earnestly, although worried by the end of his sentence.
"Thanks." Tay patted Vera's head, "Class should start any second now, we should go."
Vera nodded, tensing up ever so slightly when he patted her head.
Tay pulled his backpack on again and walked towards French class when the bell rang.
Vera's first class was Math, so she went there first, slipping into her seat before anyone else got there.
Tay pulled out his French textbook, ready to face another period of totally butchering French words.
(wanna skip to lunch?)
(sure, I don't want to write about Tay going, "Cest la chat min on?"
(I just died laughing omg)
(I love French. Idk why, it's fun tho)
Vera scanned the packed cafeteria for Tay, poeple swarming around her as the screams and shouts of the Lunch Time: a stupid highschool version of the Hunger Games began.
Tay spotted Vera in front of him and enveloped her in a hug, "Let's go find a seat?" his voice came out muffled as his face was buried in her hair.
Vera could feel stares boring into her back as Tay hugged her. "Um, sure.", she replied, clutching her sketchbook (which she had brought to work on her rough draft for an art competition) to her chest.
Tay smiled, "Can you feel the stares?"
Vera blushed. "Unfortunately. I'm afraid you're too popular to be seen with someone like me.", she said jokingly.
"I am a shoo-in for valedictorian of the school, but I'm not exactly popular," Tay said as he led Vera over to a table full of popular kids, a.k.a. his friends, "I'm more of the smart kid at school."
