[hr][b]Location:[/b] Hallway
[b]Interacting with:[/b] Trevor[sub][@Silent Observer][/sub] and Josie[sub][@Kitty][/sub]
[/center][hr]Throwing her bag over her shoulder and slipping her phone into her pocket, Josie quickly made her way out of her homeroom classroom, regretting getting distracted by the text from her brother that kept her a bit longer after the bell. Once in the hall, she paused and looked in both directions, ignoring the complaints of the other students while trying to spot her other redheaded friend. Luckily, it was easy to spot his fiery red hair in the sea of students with boring hair colors. 

Dipping and dodging gracefully through the river of students heading towards their next classes, Josie made her way towards the boy as quickly as she could. When she was finally within a good range, she decided to call out to him, [color=blueviolet][b]“Yo Trev! Wait up!”[/b][/color] Hoping he would hear her, she continued making her way towards him as fast as she could.

Following their conversation in homeroom, Trevor and Damian had parted ways in the halls. The boys were in different grades, and therefore had different classes to attend throughout the day. This morning’s news still shook the ginger jock to his core. He felt awful for his friend, this punishment seemed unreasonable and unfair. How would the team even fair without him as their captain and quarterback? Trev only had a few seconds to ponder this as he walked, before someone called his name.

Trevor paused and turned to look over his shoulder towards the source of the sound. [color=c66600][b]“Oh, hey Josie!”[/b][/color] He slowed down and smiled warmly at her. Josephine was a friend of his, he’d talked to her about JROTC a few times before, and they share similar interests and friends in school, both being jocks. She even has a brother named Trevor, which was a cool little fun fact that he’d found out the first time that they talked. [color=c66600][b]“What’s up?”[/b][/color]

Finally catching up to her friend, Josie smiled at the redhead. [color=blueviolet][b]“Times like these make me realize how thankful I am to no longer be the short freshman I was. These hallways are seriously crowded.”[/b][/color] She joked with a grin spreading across her face. Her face then got a bit more serious, [color=blueviolet][b]“How’s Damian doing?”[/b][/color] She asked, remembering what she heard Damian’s mom say. She felt bad for Damian, he loved football, and she couldn’t imagine that this was easy for him.

His cheerful grin fell flat at that question, as Trevor’s mind was brought back to Damian. [color=c66600][b]“He’s being Damian about it, handling it with finesse and all that. But… it really sucks. The whole thing is pretty upsetting, but we’re gonna do what we can, you know, the team and I.”[/b][/color] Trevor talked as they kept walking through the halls, wondering if they were perhaps heading to the same class. 

[color=c66600][b]“Is that all you wanted to ask about? Because… I’ve been meaning to chat with you about… something.”[/b][/color] His nerves were getting the best of him now, made more obvious by the pauses in his sentence.

Josephine nodded in understanding, Damian has his way of dealing with things even, if sometimes it was not the best way to go about it. But who always goes about anything in the best way? When Trevor asked if she had something else to talk about, her grin returned and grew at his obvious nerves. 

[color=blueviolet][b]“I actually do have something I wish to talk to you about. If I am guessing right based off how you are acting right now… it may just be the same thing.”[/b][/color] Josie had a bit of bounce in her step, hoping her guess would be right as she looked at him. [color=blueviolet][b]“I believe we both wish to talk about a gorgeous southern belle one’s brother believes is just his type. Might I be correct?”[/b][/color]

[color=c66600][b]“Wait…”[/b][/color] Trevor’s eyes widened in shock. How did Josie know that? Was it that obvious? Maybe she was just referencing what Riley had said at the party, that must be what it was. Unless, of course, she knew that because of something Savannah had said. He felt sweaty all over suddenly. [color=c66600][b]“W-what do you mean?”[/b][/color]

[color=c66600][b]“I mean.”[/b][/color]

[color=c66600][b]“Yes. But how did you know that?”[/b][/color]

[color=blueviolet][b]“That’s for me to know and you to wish you knew.”[/b][/color] Josephine winked at him with a slight playful smirk on her face. The way he was reacting was good news for her plans on getting the two together. Ahh, the innocence of the two with the way they both got flustered at the mention of the other, it was pretty entertaining, but also just adorable.

[color=blueviolet][b]“So knowing I’m right, I first would like to know what you wanted to talk to me about regarding Savvy. I need to get an idea of what your thoughts are concerning my friend… mainly so I know I don’t need to whoop your ass.”[/b][/color] She joked.

Trevor’s eyes, which were still quite wide, grew even more so. He held his hands out in front of him non-threateningly and spoke in a rushed defense. [color=c66600][b]“No, i-it’s not like that. I swear. I just—”[/b][/color] His light brown eyes swept around the crowded hallway quickly, and then he looked back to Josie. He motioned for her to join him in a quieter alcove next to a water fountain and whispered his next words.

[color=c66600][b]“Listen, just between you and me, but… I kinda have trouble talking to her. I know, jocks are supposed to be like, super confident, and get all the girls and all that. But, that’s not me, I’m not like that. Savannah is, wow, she’s something else. I don’t know that much about her, but I’d really like to, but it’s like… whenever I’m around her, or talking about her, or thinking about her… I get nervous. Like sweaty palms nervous, and I swear I sound like a bumbling idiot when I speak. She probably thinks I am. But… you’re her friend, so I was hoping you could, maybe, help me?”[/b][/color]

Joining him next to the water fountain she listened to him, her heart warming at how utterly adorable it was that he thought and felt that way about Savannah. Josie just knew how right these two were, she sure as hell was gonna enjoy spoiling her little redhead godchildren in the future. 

[color=blueviolet][b]“First of all, I can assure you Trev, she does not think you are a bumbling idiot. The fact you aren’t like all the other jocks is why I want to help you. She’s precious, your precious. Bada bing, bada boom. Perfect match. So I’m going to help you because I love Sav and I love you. I want what’s best for both of you and your gorgeous selves. So anything you need, just hit me up.”[/b][/color]

[color=c66600][b]“Do you think [i]she[/i] thinks we would be a perfect match?”[/b][/color] Trevor asked shyly, his cheeks blushing a fierce red. Not even he could believe that he just asked that question. [color=c66600][b]“W-what should I say? Should I ask her out? What does she like to do?”[/b][/color]

[color=blueviolet][b]“Maybe.”[/b][/color] Josie winked at the boy. [color=blueviolet][b]“How about you start simple and ask her to the movie Friday? That way she can answer that question herself. Plus, for what to say Trev… Well, just say what feels right. Be yourself. The worst thing you could do is pretend to be someone else. She likes you for you.”[/b][/color]

[color=c66600][i]She likes me.[/i][/color] Trevor thought dreamily to himself as a stupid grin crept across his lips. A movie date, he could totally manage asking her to that. A movie date, on the roof of the place that his father worked at. No big deal, he definitely wouldn’t grill Trev for more information if he saw the pair of them there together or anything. Trevor’s nerves spiked, but he was also excited by Josephine’s encouraging words. [color=c66600][b]“Yeah, good idea. I can do that. I hope she likes Star Wars!”[/b][/color]
