𝖼𝗁𝖺𝗉𝗍𝖾𝗋 𝗍𝗐𝗈 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ unlucky partnership. ╱ season one, episode one.
EDEN WAS NEVER the one to enjoy sports, she never had an interest in them. The blonde saw them as something that would make her annoyed. She wasn't the best with hand-eye coordination so her options were slim to none sports-wise. She liked to stick to more indoor activities. Eden had a wonderful knack for art. It was something that gave her a chance to breathe. From a young age, she had a wonderful talent for it, and as she grew it only got stronger.
Creativity just came naturally to her, there wasn't a moment where her hand wasn't diving into her sketchbook. It was the only place where she showed her true colors. It wasn't the bleak and dark person she portrayed on the outside, this Eden was more complex, with layers that gave her depth and more character.
Growing up art was her favorite subject, any class that let her escape from the world around her was heaven in her eyes. Art class had always been a class that Eden counted on to give ease, it was a place where she could go off and forget about everything around her for an hour straight. Eden's room had always been covered with art supplies, and even with being here for only a few days, Eden's desks and dressers were already covered with materials she planned on using for her art projects.
Everyone admired that soft and vulnerable side of Eden that came with her artistic vision. All her family was envious of her talent, it was a thing that took up most of her time. Her favorite thing to do was drop everything after school and lock herself in her room while she was splayed out on her floor, drawing and making the ideas that flooded through her brain come to life. Eden had already masked the plain white of her walls with her painted canvases and tapestries, but still, boxes remained unopened and spread across her room.
Eden wished more than anything to be sprawled across her carpeted floor, but instead, cold air washes over her body as she sits between Piper and Allison as they watch a sport Eden has no interest in. And to make it more confusing, it wasn't even a game, they were watching a boring practice. Eden blocked out all the yells from the coach and groups of people that remain in the stands. Her eyes were focused on the page of her sketchbook, finding that much more interesting than the events around her. She huddled more into her leather jacket, regretting the decision of wearing a skirt today.
Piper looks equally disinterested as her eyes constantly waved from the field and back to her book. Eden actually didn't mind the girl sitting next to her, she was surprised at that. With the way Lydia instantly annoyed the ever-loving shit out of her, she expected Piper to have the same energy. But the brown-haired girl was different, she was actually quite funny and made Eden laugh throughout their conversation. Allison seemed a little preoccupied with Lydia, which Eden was happy with, as she didn't have to deal with the high-pitched bragging she does when she talks about Jackson. Eden already hated Jackson, from one look at his smug features she knew they would never get along.
Eden felt eyes on her, the gaze made her tense up. Glancing up, she was met with Piper's eyes glued to her sketchbook. Without thinking Eden sent her an exaggerated look, "Need something?"
"Huh? what?" The brunette snapped out of her trance and met Eden's slightly hostile gaze. The girl shook her head and gave the blonde a soothing smile, "I was just looking at what you were drawing, you're really great,"
"Thank you, Piper," The blonde sent her a grateful smile before looking down at her page again.
"Yeah, no problem!" Piper gushed, her lips twisted brightly upward as she looked at the abstract flowers drawn across the page, "I wish I could do that, but I can barely draw a proper stick figure,"
Eden snorted, eyes filled with amusement, "Sometime, I'll teach you some simple techniques I learned when I first started,"
Piper gasped excitedly, a hand clasping her chest lightly, "Wait seriously?"
Eden nodded in response, giving Piper an amused smile, "If you'd like,"
"I would love to, oh my god, I can't wait to do it,"
"Well, just tell me when you're free and then we can plan," Eden mentioned, eyes still glued to her page as she created a swirl with her flower stem.
Piper nodded eagerly even if Eden couldn't see it, "I'll have to talk with Lydia to see if we have any plans this weekend, but if we don't, I'm so coming to your house,"
"Sounds like a plan Piper, I'm totally cool with that," The blonde responded as she sent Piper a smile in return.
Eden's chest was filled with slight excitement, it had been a long time since she had made a friend, and she hoped that Piper would like to be friends with her. There was something about Piper being interested in what she was making that made her mood completely change. Piper had made her feel grateful that someone was drawn to something she liked. Usually, with talking to someone, Eden immediately wanted the conversation to be over, but Piper seemed so genuinely interested in what she had to say that it made Eden wanna keep talking to her.
But unfortunately, the conversation ceased to nothing, only the light cheers from the crowd filled Eden's ears. Her hands began to get cold and it was too much for her to bear, so she ended up shoving her sketchbook and pencils into her bag right before she tucked her hands into her jacket. Her eyes wavered between the players on the field. She could hear the conversations between Allison and Lydia, but she didn't bother paying attention. Eden tuned them out as she watched the boy in goal continuously catch the balls getting chucked at him. Without knowing anything about the game, Eden was already impressed with the boy's skills.
Eden nudged Piper's shoulder lightly to get her attention, "Hey who's that?"
"That's Scott McCall," Piper replied, eyes still on the boy who continued to catch the ball like it was absolutely nothing. "Our mothers are really good friends,"
"So you guys are close?" Eden questioned.
Piper snorted, causing a look of confusion to cross Eden's face, "Not anymore, Lydia would have my head if I hung out with people like him, he's very low on the social ladder, along with his best friend Stiles,"
Eden had a guess as to who he was, as the buzzcut boy from her English class trailed behind Scott as soon as class ended. "The buzzcut kid right?"
Piper nodded, slight surprise gracing her features, "How'd you know?"
Eden shrugged, "BuzzCut and Scott are in my English class and he was immediately up Scott's ass as soon as class ended,"
Piper laughed lightly and nodded, "Sounds like Stiles, him and Scott are pretty much a package deal,"
