The Need (Vi x Caitlyn)

The Need (Modern AU/School)

When it comes to Piltover High School, the name Caitlyn Reeve had always been known, especially when it came to the moment that Calum Reeve and Evangelyn Reeve decided to enroll their daughter there for her first year in high school. Not only was Caitlyn known for her striking appearance, but her knowledge greatly affected her reputation in the educational institute.

Caitlyn didn't even make a single effort, yet she was labeled by the students as the most popular student in the entire school. Of course with her manners and etiquette taught by her parents, mainly her mother, she accepted everything that was given to her as humbly and politely as she can.

All boys in school wanted to date her, while all girls wanted to be her.

Well... all, except for one.

This particular person didn't escape Caitlyn's attention though. Her name was Vi and literally everyone in school made sure to avoid her at all cost. Skin practically littered with tattoos, roughed up clothes that made it obvious she came from lowtown, the intimidating and rather menacing look in those vibrant blue eyes, everything about her screamed imminent danger.

Such features and aura didn't affect the young Reeve though. Her desire to sate her curiosity over and over again always came first. Ever since she knew how to walk and talk, Caitlyn had always been keen with the act of investigating and giving her curiosity what it craves for. Her parents had even claimed more than once that she's too adventurous for her age, especially since most teenagers her age are more focused in building friendships with fellow students and making sure their social life is stable. No, Caitlyn was not at all like that.

This is where it all began. It started with her subtly eyeing the female outcast. The latter wasn't hard to find in the crowd of students. What, with her bubble gum pink hair and signature red leather jacket, Caitlyn easily caught her in her sights.

The fact that Vi showed not a single attempt in engaging in any type of interaction with the other students somewhat bothered Caitlyn. Was the fault in the pink-haired punk's side? Or maybe it was the students? That's one of the things Caitlyn promised herself she'd find out.

The longer Caitlyn kept her interest towards the pinkette, the more she learned about her. She discovered that Vi was able to attend PHS thanks to one of the scholarships the school itself offers. What further intrigued our little student-detective was that the scholarship Vi was under in one of the rarely acquired types. Meaning, the entrance and yearly requirements it possesses are considered by many to be impossible to meet. Even Caitlyn, once she read about the scholarship, believed that even she would not be able to meet the scholarship's given expectations.

This particular fact obviously stated that Vi has quite a wide range of knowledge that greatly surpasses nearly all the students in the academy. Caitlyn may not be fond of gambling, but she would be willing to bet that Vi can even top her own intellectual skill.

Years passed too fast for Caitlyn. Next thing she knew, she was in her last year in high school and was about to graduate in less than a month. She was excited, yes, but was immensely disappointed at the great possibility that she won't be able to truly uncover who Vi really is.

The past years have been hard for her, most especially when it came to the times that she dug around about Vi and her past. It was somewhat easier to find out about some of the pinkette's likes and dislikes, bit those were just minor details. When it came to general information though, all she found out was that Vi has exceptionally high grades, that she only lives with her mother at the poor part of Piltover and that her father was considered nonexistent.
