𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐢𝐭 𝐢𝐧 class, bored with the subject.

"Now, for the Social Issues project, you are to be put into pairs and to be given a topic. And yes, I already chose your pairs." The whole class groans.

She begins to list off names in pairs and assigning a social issue to each group.

"... For the aging population crisis, Yamada Akito and [L/N] [Y/N]. Now everyone get into your pairs and start your assignment for the last five minutes of class." You perk up for a moment. Yamada? What a coincidence... You look up to see your partner walking up to the desk beside yours.

The guy I bumped into yesterday, his name is Yamada?

"Hi, Yamada. D-Do you have any ideas for the project...?" You nervously looked up at him as he looked down at you.

"Well... we can talk about how it affects the healthcare system." Wow...his voice is angelic... No!

I must stay loyal to FoS Yamada...

"That's a good idea." There was a slight silence between the two of you.

"We don't have much time to get started. Maybe we should go to a café near by? So we can brainstorm some ideas?" you suggest gingerly.

He seems to think about it for a moment before nodding his head.

"I have to get back home at around 17:30 (5:30pm)." You nod and smile. That works out perfectly! That way, you will still have time to play on FoS when you get home.

"Haha, so do I! Anyway, should we go to the café?" He nods and we begin to walk to the café that's close to the school. It's a super quiet and relaxing café so it's the perfect place for doing school work.

The two of us walk in and take a seat. I pull out my laptop and he pulls out his. I look up from my laptop;

'Wow, he's really... really cute.' you think to yourself. You try to brush away the thoughts in your head. It's not like you like-like him. All girls react like this to him.

The two of you talk about your project, distributing who does what and just doing research on your respective slides. Suddenly, someone walks in and yells Yamada's name.

You look up slightly startled to see a tall boy with blonde hair and glasses.

"Yamada! What are you doing at a ca— are you on a date?!" Your face immediately goes red. Who is this guy?! He looks like a college student or something... Is Yamada friends with college students?! He's a lot more popular than you thought...

"She's my partner for our school project." He says nonchalantly.

"Whatever you say, Yamada! You gonna be online tonight?" Yamada nods his head. I guess they're talking about a video game.

"Alright, cya! Have a fun date!" He giggles as he walks away. Your face flushes slightly but you try to hide it with your hands. Wait. why are you even blushing like this..? Relax, anyone would be embarrassed in your situation!

"It's 17:11... I should probably head back home." Yamada breaks the awkward silence.

"Oh! Right, I need to get home too. Do you want to put your number in my phone so we can contact each other about the project?"

You hand him your phone and he looks at it hesitantly for a moment. The case was (Your fav colour) and it had a cute teddy charm hanging from the bottom.

He gently took your phone from out of your hand, your fingers brushing against his, which sent a chill down your spine. He entered his number into your contacts and handed it back to you.
