Since the day of (y/n)'s birthday party, the relationship between him and Celeatia had changed. Instead of avoiding each other's gaze, they seemed to try and meet eyes every now and then. It was confusing to their classmates, even though they were glad that there was no more fighting.

"Woah, have y'all noticed the vibe between Ludenberg and (l/n)?" Leon Kuwata crossed his arms behind his head, leaning back in his chair. "Yeah, I've noticed that lovey dovey acting." Owada let out a huff, closing his eyes for a split second. The Ultimate Biker Gang Leader seemed to be annoyed by it.

"I think it's really nice to see them like this!" The Ultimate Pop Sensation clapped her hands together in content. "And even if it's a little bit weird, it's better than having to endure fighting and an uncomfortable atmosphere in the classroom, isn't it?"

Her words made the grumbling male let out another huff. "Yeah, I guess you're right. It's just so... I don't f-cking know, man. It's not what I'm used to. I know that (l/n) has only been here for three weeks, but I swear I've gotten used to their grudge."

"You don't have a big vocabulary, do you? You repeated 'used to' two times in two sentences. Maybe you should stay here more often for class." Togami's words made the biker slam his fist against his desk. "What the f-ck do you mean by that, you f-cking little-"

"Guys, stop bickering already, will you?" The Ultimate Lucky Student seemed to be frustrated. "I agree with all of you when it comes to (l/n) and Ludenberg, but I don't think Celeste will let him into her heart, you know? Maybe she's still holding a grudge... I don't know..."

Now all eyes were focused on the brown haired male. "What makes you say that? I haven't noticed anything that would make it seem like Celeste is still mad at him. Don't you think their relationship has significantly improved?" Aoi tilted her head to the side, seeming a bit confused.

"I do think so...!" A sigh escaped his lips. "But I also noticed that Ludenberg always keeps her fair share of distance when they happen to have a conversation." Shrugging, the Ultimate Swimming Pro sat up. "Isn't that normal? I don't think you and Kyoko talk really close to each other!"

Her words made him blush. "Awww, Makoto, do you have a thing for Kirigiri?" Sayaka giggled, covering her mouth as she did so. "What?! No!" His face became redder by the second. "Let's not focus on me! Let's focus on those two! I feel kind of sorry for (l/n)..."

"Why's that?" Naegi stared at a wall, thinking to himself quietly. 'Should I tell them...? Then again, (l/n) would probably kill me if I spilled his secret... But I also don't feel too good about keeping secrets from our other friends... I'm sure they're trustworthy, right...?' He gulped.

"If you actually have something to say, then f-cking spit it out already and quit stammering around!" Mondo growled, crossing his arms. "Well... I talked to (l/n) a few days ago and... He told me that he was afraid of... Confessing his feelings to Ludenberg. He's in love."

If jaws would've medically been able to hit the floor, the whole group of students would have had to pick them up again. "Wait, are you serious? Is he really in love?" Nodding, the Ultimate Lucky Student sighed. "Yes, he is. Don't tell him that I told you, though..."
