I should probably address that Tanjiro's name spelling keeps changing!! I've decided to officially keep it as Tanjiro to avoid confusion. ((I edit this story on my phone a lot so it autocorrects to 'Tanjirou' on there. My apologiess!!))

Due to the fact that you've been away from school for a week now, it's hard for you to focus in class. It was already a challenge, but now it's nearly impossible.

To your right, Makomo is diligently writing notes on a piece of lined paper--she hasn't even looked up from it since class started, so you can't just distract yourself with frivolous chatter at this time

Hmmmmm...I hope Sabito's okay. Tanjiro too

Mr. Shinazugawa's voice seems to fade in and out as you stare off into the far corner of the class, entangled in a daydream about your two favorite redheads

I wish those two could get along...I don't know why Sabito would dislike someone before meeting them, that's very immature and unlike him.

Your gaze wandered off to the side a bit, staring at the heads of the other students lined up in front of you

And Tanjiro still hasn't been formally introduced to either of them. He only wants to hang out with me alone...could it be that Sabito's noticed this? How would he even know?

mid-thought, you noticed someone who sat a few desks ahead of you that you hadn't noticed before

The little yellow tuft of hair was all you could see, but you knew it was Zenitsu.

He probably knows something

But why is he seated so far away? I have to find a way to talk to him

Makomo stomps on your foot under the table--with gusto, too. You can feel a stinging pain lingering in your toes when you snap back to reality

"What was that for??" You whisper, convulsing

"Pay attention in class. We have a group assignment coming up, and I am not going to let you slack off again" Makomo says simply

BITCH!

You glared at her "You didn't have to stomp on my FOOT. I'd have been fine with just a tap."

Makomo scoffs without looking at you "Relax."

"WH-Makomo are you serious!?" You said without realizing your voice was getting louder

"Oh noooo, (Y/n) is hurt again! Time to disappear for the next few days and sneak around with boys." She mumbles into her paper

"THAT'S NOT EVEN--"

"(Y/N)." Mr. Shinazugawa yelled, his eyes fixed on you

You jumped at the sound of his voice hitting your ears like a crack of thunder

"This is the SECOND time I've had to remind you. PAY ATTENTION."

You shrank in your seat under his intense stare.

But, Makomo started it, you wanted to say, but you could tell Mr. Shinazugawa was losing his patience; nobody likes to see Mr. Shinazugawa lose his patience.

"Yes, sir" You managed to squeak

Fine. If that's how she wants to be, FINE. I can't let anyone ruin MY day, I won't.

Everyone's either looking sideways at you or trying not to look at all. It seems like most of the class has caught on to your bad luck

Among them, Tanjiro stares curiously from the complete opposite side of the room
