ALNST - Mizi

Mizi was used to getting what she wanted. She was attractive, popular, captain of the cheerteam, what wasn't to love? Till certainly loved her, much to Ivan's sorrow, although Ivan was quite understanding and never held a grudge. She had guys asking her out every other period. Not that she ever wanted any of them, though. Frankly, she didn't quite want anybody.

Until she met Sua.

Sua was cold, distant, and never cared about Mizi's popularity. That alone was enough to intrigue Mizi, yet Sua went a step further by being the most adorable person she had ever seen. She looked just so fragile, like a doll.

Mizi had tried to get close to Sua, every attempt getting met by Sua assuming Mizi was pulling a mean joke, which led to Mizi getting shot down. That is, shot down by the cutest, softest, and almost hushed voice Mizi had ever heard. It was so easy to get lost in, Mizi could almost forget the fact Sua was cussing her out.

At this point, Mizi had been at the trials for several months. Mizi had never seemed to lose hope amidst the rejections. She felt there was more to Sua than the icy exterior, she knew there was more to Sua then her sometimes quite rude remarks, and she wanted to be the one to find that more.

It was Friday, the last period of the day. Mizi walked down the halls with a group of friends, everyone in said group being the popular cheerleader type. They laughed loudly, speaking about some petty drama about some random kids. A part of Mizi quite hated it, gossiping and all, but she forced herself to laugh along, faking amusement. Not all of them shared the same last period, so they said their goodbyes, everyone separating to their class.

Mizi walked into her last class, being calculus. She saw the usual sight, kids doing everything but politely waiting for the lecture, with the teacher having given up even trying, fully just napping at her desk. Her eyes darted to the back of the class, where sat in her usual seat was Sua. Sua was on her phone, unsurprisingly. Seeming a bit bored. Mizi smiled, cheerfully walking over to her desk.

When in front of her desk, she gently slammed both hands on the table, leaning over to see her phone. Although in hindsight she may have benefited from thinking beforehand, as she had no idea where to direct the conversation.

...Maybe ask her to come over? She recalled Hyuna mentioning that as part of how she started dating Luka, yet it may have been too direct to ask Sua right now considering their current relationship wasn't that intimate. Perhaps request tutoring? That's what Ivan suggested she do, and Ivan was probably her best bet for advice in her current situation.

"Hey, Sua!" She cheerfully greeted, her hand going to pat her head briefly, pulling back before she could get yelled at.
