The reader will have selective mutism.
(T/N):Teachers name

Tomorrow morning scared you, it made you nervous so now you were texting Keun Sup so he can calm you down. The first day of school always scared you, everyone expected a word out of you. But you could give nothing.

Keun Sup:You really don't have to be so scared, fella

You:Yes I do, people might wanna talk to me. Last year I tried going unnoticed but somehow the teachers wanted me to start talking and I was teased for my damn seletive mutism, it's not my fault damnit it's not like I asked for this

Keun Sup:Teachers and kids suck man, It's gonna be okay I'm here for you.

Keun Sup:Here's a sound more painful than talking :D (Btw take out your headphones if you have any in)

(Won't be putting the actual video of where I got the sound, just imagine that ringing in your ears you get when you're in a quiet room but louder)

The next day

You got your toast off your plate and took bites out of it, summer was over god damnit so that meant school and at school there were teachers, kids, lots of kids. "Don't be nervous, (Y/N), it's not like it's a whole new school, I've already met your teachers and they're lovely!"Your mother said in the morning, it was easier said than done to not be nervous. Talking, that's something everyone expected of you but you never could do it, everytime you opened your mouth it felt as it glue was on your lips and you just closed your mouth again. They always expected you to just, open your mouth and speak. But you couldn't, you didn't. You only could if it was someone you really really knew.

"Oh and (Y/N), remember what your teachers said last year, don't be scared to say anything if you need anything, okay?"Your mom said kneeling down to you as your father made his way down the stairs, "K..."You mumbled then got out your chair to walk to school "Bye, (Y/N)"Both your parents said as you waved to them, you walked out the door to school.

You began your walk to school, talking filled your ears as you made your way to the building. You found your classroom and sat down in your assigned seat, seat 4 and put your head down, you tapped your desk hoping Keun Sup would be here already, your phone sat in your pocket as your substitute for speaking. The door opened and revealed Keun Sup just coming through the door as the same time as the teacher, "Welcome class to 1st period English, I'm Mrs.(T/N)!"The teacher introduced herself to the class as Keun Sup went to his assigned seat in the front.

The teacher began talking then she turned to the class, "How about we introduce ourselves! You, in seat 4, how about you tell us about yourself!"The teacher turned to you. You panicked and stood up shaking, you usually typed on your phone to communicate but there was no way the whole class was gonna see your small phone. Keun Sup saw your panicking and snuck his phone and played the sound he showed you last night.

"What's that noise?"A kid stood up from his chair to look around, everyone got confused and started looking around "Who has that playing?!"The teacher said angrily that your introduction was interrupted, as the children tried figuring out where that noise came from you glanced at Keun Sup to make sure it was him who saved you from talking and he did a thumbs up at you leaning back in his seat. You smiled at him nodding, "Whoever has that on, you are being very rude! Oh I'm so sorry, I didn't think anyone would be so disrepectful..."The teacher went up to you with an apologetic look but you just nodded. You walked towards the board and got the chalk, you wrote down your introduction and sat back down in your seat. You were grateful Keun Sup saved you back there, when he saw you write your name down he finally stopped the noise. "I was starting to think someone planted a bomb at this school!"A girl said to her friends sitting back down. "Oh, nice to meet you, (Y/N)"The teacher smiled then went to the next kid to introduce themselves.

Time skip

After school you and Keun Sup walked to the library, your favorite place. No one to talk to you, just silence a need for talking was non existent. "Thanks Keun Sup..."You mumbled as you walked in the library "No problem man, I know how much you don't wanna talk, don't feel pressured to start talking okay?", you nodded as a response.

You and Keun Sup started looking through the books, as you started looking you saw Keun Sup in the manga section and you started following him. As you looked trying to avoid looking at the adult mangas you saw one that caught your eye, Komi can't communicate. You read the back and was immediately eager to start reading. Keun Sup smiled at the manga you chose and sat down with you, you heard this manga was good now to understand the hype.

Time skip

Keun Sup was rubbing your back and handing you a tissue, "It's okay, man..."Keun Sup said as Komi can't communicate was in your lap and tears went down your face. "She's just like my for real..."You tried to joke as tears went down youer face "S-She is..."Keun sup sighed.

Keun Sup's POV:Aw man, guess he got pretty emotional. I don't really blame him, Jackie was reading the same manga and he started crying the moment he saw the chalkboard scene...So many things Komi wanted to say, yet she couldn't the glue sealing her lips. Just like (Y/N), but he'll be fine, I just know it. No matter how he'll communicate I'll still be his friend.

I feel like this request was surprisingly good timing, I've been thinking of writing a story where the MC has selective mutism and I feel as if this was a good warm up to writing selective mutism. Dunno if I'll follow along with the story tho. Also, read Komi can't communicate now. I've read volume 1 and I am IN LOVE.
