"Hi students, I'm Matsuura, Kazuma and I'll be you're substitute teacher for the rest of the year! Which is only 5 weeks but that's a whole lot of time for learning! Haha... Anyway, We will be bla bla bla bla...."

That's all I heard after being fully hypnotized by him, him being my subsatuite teacher. For that whole class I was basically GAWKING AT HIM!!! Why? I don't even know... Everything I guess. The way his brown hair perfectly swayed with every movement, or the way his perfect brown eyes looked so comforting and mysterious at the same time, or how his skin glowed in the morning light, or even his cute lisp he had that drove me crazy. Then again, I could have just been sleepy since it's still early morning, but I was certain that wasn't the reason.

***TRAIN ALERT FOR NEXT STOP***

"AHHH YES I'M AWAKE!" I burst up from my seat on the train. "Oops..." I look around and everyone stares at me like I'm some retard.

"Ughh... Fell asleep on the train for the first day of school, how lovely." The train doors open and I get off my stop to start walking towards the direction of my school. "Why was I even thinking about Mr. Matsuura? He was only a sub, not like I'll ever have him again..." I have to mentally slap myself to stop daydreaming "NO! Stop! You almost failed the assignment he gave out BECAUSE of him! I don't want him again, I'd be too distracted." All these unwanted thoughts built up in my mind and I found myself at school in almost no time.

***SCHOOL BELL RINGS***

"Just in time for assembly, hope this year will go by as quick as the last one."

~After assembly~

"Let's see... First I have Classical Literature, I wasn't expecting that as my morning class but I guess it's fine." I sit on the first seat, 3rd row, not too close and not too far, perfect. A few minutes later and I'm still in a daze waiting for the teacher to arrive... "Am I early or is the teacher late? Well at least it will give me time to wake up---"

***BAM***

The class door slams open and before I had the time to process anything the man came rushing to his desk to set everything up so quickly it made my head spin! Taking a closer look he seems quite familiar... Could it be that---

"Hello students!!! I am Matsuura Kasuma, and I'll be your Classical Literature teacher for the rest if the year, nice to meet you!" He quickly bows and everyone soon follows.

"WHAT!!! WHY?!?! HOW COULD THIS HAVE HAPPENED!!!" I take a seat back down and all these unsettling thoughts rushed to my head, I'm mentally panicking. I didn't even have time to process what he just said moments ago before he starts speaking again.

"Some of you might not recognize me since I only was a substitute for some classes last year, but this year I am a full Classical Literature teacher. I hope your experience with me will be a pleasant one, if not then it is obvious I must be doing something terribly wrong." He giggles a little at that last bit. I have to admit, I found it so cute.

Everything he says after became a blur. I get snapped back to reality when I hear my name get called out to introduce myself. "Oh sorry! I'm Fujimoto Naoko, nice to meet you all."

"This is going to be one interesting year."
