The chitchat of your classmates muffled out the sound of your notebook's page being scratched by the mechanical pencil. Some of your classmates have been playing a few games in the classroom during lunch. You, who are not hungry have decided to skip lunch and sit at your desk, doodling a bunch of messy sketches in your notebook.
It isn't peaceful and quiet as you want still, you can bare with it anyway. But all things must come to an end just like when Hitomi skips over to your desk and ask if you want to join her on a game.
And of course, you agreed. Having no heart to decline as always.
But what you didn't expect is that Shousuke would join too.
Every student gather around the desk that got pushed together, creating enough space for everyone. You could see all of the people who are currently sitting around the desk eyeing Shousuke with a blush dusting on their faces. None of them even try to hide the fact that they are staring at him whatsoever.
The sounds of evil chuckles erupted from Hitomi's lips as she narrow her eyes slightly, carefully scanning every face of the participants of today's games.
"Today's game is a staring contest!"
You could feel your head spinning as your classmates cheers with enthusiasm. As much as you'd like to join them, you, for some reason can't look people in the eyes while talking or doing something. Just making eye contact with someone makes you feel uneasy.
So having you sit down and face your classmates isn't what you want to do.
The first round starts with Hitomi herself and the boy named Yamada.
It ended quite fast due to the brown hair boy getting flustered after the game started, but he still tried his best to keep his cool composure until he lose it. You think he looks cute with his face being beet red as he slumps down at the desk, defeated.
The next round is Shousuke and Katai Ai.
You couldn't say that it ended quickly, because before the game even started Ai suddenly run out of the room whilst cursing in a stern voice.
Everyone just stares at the open door where Ai runs off in silence.
The then game continues while Hitomi runs off to drag the blonde-haired girl back to the class. And when both of them came back-
It was your turn.
And your partner is Shousuke.
𝗢𝗵 𝗚𝗼𝗱.
ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ
You look at the ground nervously while fiddling with your fingers, finding the polished wooden floor more interesting than the gorgeous face of the boy in front of you.
The anxiousness swirl inside your guts endlessly like a whirlpool, all filled with negative thoughts. You restlessly stare at your own trembling hands which are sweating despite the tips of your fingers freezing cold.
"You can do it [name]-chan! We believe in you" Hitomi gives you a thumbs up- winking at you.
And that makes you panic even more.
Pursing your lips, you take a deep breath as you prepare your mental health for whatever is going to happen next.
"And... Start!"
You look at Shousuke directly in the eyes, hands clenching into a fist.
And you don't know how long have it pass, but probably didn't even last that long. Still, for you, it's like an eternity. Somehow you manage to maintain eye contact longer than you expect- or even more than you've done in your entire life, and you are very proud of that.
His purple irises are staring deep into your own, having no sign of backing off or giving up.
Your surrounding became hazy to your sense as you start getting lost in the pool of purple, glistening like Amethyst under the rays of sunlight. You could feel your lips run dry as your breathing became steady and your head stop spinning. But the sound of your heart beating rapidly inside your chest ring through your ears.
You finally snap back to your trance as you instantly move your gaze to the floor.
"Shousuke-kun win!"
As everyone is cheering and shouting for Shousuke's victory, your face heat up with embarrassment as you feel like the world is spinning. Your thoughts run wild whilst your body shakes aggressively, ready to pass out in an instant.
Hihihihihi I'm back! Sorry for not updating this book for a while. I'm having a writer block and I always felt very exhausted whenever I got back from school but I'm feeling better now so I'll continue working on this book!
