"Guys, I think I have a crush on—"

"Wait," Yanfei interrupted, clearing her throat in the process, "Is this REALLY, someone you actually want to love?"

"W-why are you asking that!?" Y/N stammered, wildly confused.

"Because all you've had 17 crushes in the matter of a week!" Yanfei sighed, facepalming herself as Y/N still looked confused.

"Those don't count! Those were fake ones! This one is real, trust me!" Y/N protested, staring and pouting at Yanfei with big eyes, Hu Tao's laughing in the background making Yanfei slightly pissed. She sighed, defeated.

"Fine fine, if this one turns out to be another 'fake' one I won't trust you again!" Yanfei gave in, which made your eyes light up in excitement.

"Yay! So his name is—"
"We already know Y/N," Ganyu chimed in, seemingly calm as everyone at the table stared at her, "Well, at least I know already," Ganyu corrected, but everyone still continued to stare at her, "W-what!? It was very obvious with the way you kept staring at him the moment he arrived here." Ganyu quickly explained, slightly sweating.
"Oh? Then say his name," Y/N huffed, blushing slightly at how Ganyu, the sleepiest student you knew, managed to pick up on your staring.
In a calm voice, Ganyu replied, "It's Kazuha, isn't it?"
"W-what? How did yo—"
"Oh the new guy?" Hu Tao interfered, to Y/N's annoyance. She hated how she kept getting interrupted today.

"Yes, I believe so," Yanfei replied, "Y/N, tell me what you find interesting about him." She turned to look at your bright red face.

"W-well for starters, he's really pretty, and he also seems really nice, and he's really smart as well, did you see him? He got full marks for English class! In poetry!! The one topic that everyone hat—"

"That's quite enough Y/N" Yanfei interrupted, laughing nervously, "Didn't know you had so much to say about him, interesting," she added, keeping this information stored in her mind for future use.

"A-alright, but can you pleaseee help me talk to him?" Y/N begged Yanfei, Hu Tao, Ganyu and Keqing, with Keqing looking dumbfounded as to why she was being asked to join this. She was literally just eating her golden shrimp balls.

"Of course Y/N!!" Hu Tao and Ganyu simultaneously said, although Hu Tao spoke much more eagerly than Ganyu.

"Okay, okay!" Yanfei replied reluctantly. She only said so because Hu Tao kept nudging her stomach and kicking her shin under the table.

"I guess?" Keqing answered with her mouth full, making it hard to really understand what she was saying. But since she replied, you took it as a yes.

"Thank you guys!!! This is why y'all are my bffs!" Y/N grinned, earning smiles in return from everyone at the table.

Soon after, the bell rang.

"Come on guys lets go! After school you can help me talk to Kazuha," Y/N grinned.

Everyone nodded their heads, some quicker than others.

You walked off from the rest of your friend group with Hu Tao in the main hall, since you were all in different classes.

"Sooo this guy seems really interesting!" Hu Tao mentioned while you were walking to Math class.

"Yeah, to me he is," you replied, your eyes glazing over as you thought about him. The way his eyes were this beautiful shade of red, the way his hair was so fluffy and made you want to touch it, the pretty red streak in his hair, his perfect clear skin—

"Y/N! Earth to Y/N!!" Hu Tao called to you, waving frantically, "Maths is in the West wing silly! Not the East!"

"O-oh! So sorry Hu Tao!!" you rushed over to her, blushing out of embarrassment as a few students stared at you with confusion.

"Were you daydreaming about... you-know-who?" Hu Tao wiggled her eyebrows teasingly, making you blush harder.

"N-no!!" you replied, but Hu Tao still had that ridiculous grin on her face that made you want to slap it right off, "W-well, maybe! Ok?"

"I knew it! But it's fine! It's just that now we need to be focusing on remembering how to solve triangles, since we have that quiz today," Hu Tao frowned and squinted her eyes, picking the equations out from her mind and trying to recall them.

"Wait, we have a quiz for Maths??" you gasped. You had completely forgotten, "Shit!"

"Good luck to you I guess! Haha," Hu Tao laughed nervously. In all honesty, she had forgotten the equations as well, "Hopefully we get more than 60% of the questions correct?"
