volpishtfw SCENE but no WORDS
so ann is leaning against the side of her desk, akira is sitting in the desk behind hers. ann stares at the label of the soda her (now ex-)bf gave her, decides 'ah, fuck it, she hates this kind anyway,' and offers it to akira. akira is surprised, and accepts out of reflex with a quick 'thank you.'
whispers burst to life around them from the rest of the classroom, rife with implications of ann 'moving on too quick' and 'hitting on another guy ALREADY?' and 'ho, much?' which the two can hear. ann, sick to death of it all, leans forward, whispers 'hey help me out here' to akira, and then just. kisses him. right then and there.
it's kind of uncomfortable for how ENTIRELY UNEXPECTED it is. akira's just, 'uhhh my crush is kissing me but why?? there's something very wrong here,' which, you know. he's right. (additional details = smeary lipgloss, freshly applied. her eyes are bitter and sad and kind of defeated. she's aggressive and invasive and it's— not good but maybe not fully traumatizing for a number of reasons.)
ann pulls away and asks him out, no confession or anything, very plainly and having to stop to ask for his name in the middle of it because she literally has no idea who he is.
despite his previous decision to not go anywhere near ann because she would annihilate that goal of 'live an invisible and unobjectionable school life' that he's working for, akira accepts. he really tried to be a meek little nerd who followed the crowd, but this is too interesting to not accept. also?? she's sad. akira is a) very bad at saying 'no' to sad people, b) too much of a troll to pass up on the opportunity to fuck with people, and c) really curious about like... everything about her? she is a ~mystery~
ann bounces up and away, telling him they'll work out the details after school, and bolts, managing to not make it look like bolting.
and then her ex walks in, looking furious, and the whispers start up again about ann dumping him and why and etcetcetc everyone's got an opinion.
akira takes in the whispers, looks down at the drink ann gave him—the drink that her (ex)boyfriend always got for her—and puts two and five and seven together to get fourteen.
then he cracks it open, puts it up to his mouth, and tips it back in the most obvious and eye-catching way possible. because he's a troll like that.
(later, he runs into ann in the halls and he's like 'that drink was disgusting' and she's like 'RIGHT??!!?' and that's akira's first real glimpse at the Actual Angel that is ann takamaki)
