THOSE MITCHMATCH beauty came in contact with gleaming [e/c] eyes that were already casted on to his figure first. the girl's heart skipped a beat as they made eye contact— her face felt like flaring up. she quickly tear her gaze away. 'he's so damn gorgeous!' she thought silently in her head.

the bell rang loudly into everyone's ears. "alright then, you are all dismissed," the teacher announced monotonously before packing his belongings—leaving the class as fast as possible, unable to withstand the troublesome students.

"well that was unbearable," a voice spoke as [name] jumped a bit in surprise. she turned on her heel to meet her best friend's face, iguro obanai, up close. her eyes widened in surprise as she insert a distance between them. "do you wanna go to the cafe next door to get some ice cream?" the boy asked cooly, but inside his heart was writing like crazy. he was beyond anxious when asking that particular question.

it took him a few days to muster up the courage to ask her out. it was never easy for the boy— as he was known to be an icy person, it's no surprise that he takes his time to muster up courage. [name] was the only girl that he had set his eyes on, ever since they first met, he was enthralled with her charming beauty.

he knew it was impossible. it was an impossible dream to capture— sharing a relationship with her. she was too good for this world, too sickeningly perfect. no wonder hundreds of men are lining up for her, and a countless amount of girls are insanely jealous over her. obanai knows too well that amongst the hundreds of boys lining up for her, including himself, she wouldn't pick him. the problem was clear; she's higher than him.

he felt like she didn't deserve a low blood boy. she deserved more than that. she deserve a rich and handsome man, something he's not. he knew she would never love him just the way he loved her. it was impossible.

[name]'s heart fluttered at the words that invited her to obanai. it felt so warm, she wanted to feel this feeling forever. it was tragic how she's never got the chance to express her feelings towards her childhood friend. she's a meek person– often having social anxiety, but her beauty outshines everything else. despite being a meek person, she's got plenty of friends.

"of course! that sounds– lovely," [name] smiled giddily. "alright then, let's get going before it gets hotter," obanai smiled behind his half-hidden face. he wore bandages to cover the gargantuan scar behind it. obanai looked at the table that was in utter disarray before sighing. "your table is always the messiest one, huh," he commented. "well, it's not my fault that our beloved classroom teacher had chosen me to be the class leader," she said with an annoyed expression.

she hated being the class leader, it was an absolute nightmare. her table is always a complete mess due to the agendas that were stacked up on the corner of her table, and the countless worksheets that teachers have entrusted her to give back to her classmates. though this time, it was just messy due to many of her books carelessly scattered everywhere, even some of her paper slipped under some of them too.

obanai collected the papers from her table swiftly and arranged them nearly. only the score, '80', filled his vision as he arranged them cleanly. [name] placed her books bag in her bag one by one with a fast speed, eager to get this over with and go on the 'date' with obanai. perhaps this wasn't a date, but she'd love to call this as one.

they quickly packed her bag and left the classroom, turning off the light due to being the last people in the class. [name] and obanai walked side-by-side in absolute silence, but that silence was comforting, it felt like home. "how's you and mitsuri?" [name] aske with a soft voice, though her heart clenched a bit.

"are you still shipping me with her?" obanai asked with furrowed eyebrows– a quite visible frown was painted on his face. only [name] could read his expression. "that girl's been latching on to you a lot lately, she's adorable!" [name] exclaimed with a tint of fake cheerfulness in her voice.

that fact is indeed correct, a charming junior named kanroji mitsuri has befriended obanai very quickly, they didn't need to wait for a confession to know that kanroji has fallen deeply in love with obanai.

"tsk, i told you, i don't like her," obanai claimed the obvious. [name] fell silent. she opened her mouth to say something but closed it once again, perhaps it wasn't necessary to talk about it. worry drenched her heart for the junior. what if kanroji starts.. coughing up flowers too?

[name] bit into the cone of her raspberry ice cream with merriment. forgetting all of the worries that spurred earlier. [name] heaved out a sigh of tranquility. "thank you for the treat, obanai-san!" [name] exclaimed with a sweet smile that send hundreds of butterflies loose in his stomach. "oh," he mumbled. "your welcome," he said meekly as he got himself bubble tea instead of an ice cream.

"obanai-san," [name] started as she grabbed a tissue out of her tote bag to clean her hands and lips. "say, you told me you had a crush on a girl right? give me more hints about her," she said with a curious gaze settling on to her [e/c] eyes, yet mixed with a hint of jealousy. "oh gosh, this again," he said with a cold voice. "why are you so invested about it?" he asked. "i'm your best friend! i need to know everything about you," she whined playfully.

obanai huffed a sigh. "alright then," he said silently. "let me give you a hint," he said with a teasing voice. curiosity stirred in her [e/c] eyes. waiting in anticipation. "she's beautiful," he said. [name] whined loudly as she stomped on her feet. "that's so not fair! your hints are too wide-ranged!" [name] exclaimed in protest—the thing is, the only girl in obanai's mismatched hues that was known as a beauty was only [name].

and it will forever stay that way.

or will it?
