It's not like I like him (Valorant)

Ch. 4

--Next day--

I walk out my front door to find Jett waiting for me in annoyance

"Hey! You took long to get ready today, something happend?"

"Yeah... Something did. You know Yoru? My seatmate? Well he found out about my part time job and is TECHNICALLY blackmailing me!"

"Pfft- heh.. HAHAHAHAH WHAT?? H-how'd he even find out?" Jett asks with tears in her eyes.

"Really funny Jett. He came into the cafe and unfortunately I was the person serving him. And now, to keep my secret he told me to pay for each meal he has there!"

"Dangg hes definitely just gonna get the most expensive thing on the menu just to spite you. How the heck you even get involved with a guy like that?"

" I don't know... But I do know is that I'm not backing down. I'll make him say why he's doing all this..."

"Okay stop that's kinda gay."

"Shut yo bitch ass up."

------------------------------------------------------

I lay my bag on the ground and sit down, looking besides me I see Yoru.

"Hey mate!"

"Huh? Why are you talking to me?"

"Why not?"

He rolls his eyes and focuses back to his phone. I take my chair and put it near him. Laying my arms on his table I ask

"Soo what are your radiant powers?"

"It's too difficult to understand, especially for a stone head like you."

"Come on man! I promise I'll understand!"

"I can rip holes through time and teleport. Happy?"

"Very, how did you find out you had em'?"

"Like every radiant, through an accident."

"Ah.. my bad mate."

"..."

The room fills with the incoherent voices from our classmates with only Yoru and I silent.

"And you? Why do you have that lil job you have at that cafe? I doubt a rich person like you really needs one." He whispers, making sure no one hears.

"Huh? Oh. Um I kind of.. owe a friend. I broke his console and I'm trying to pay him back."

"Lmao, did you burn the console or something?"

"Yeah... And his TV..."

He stares at me blankly with those blue eyes of his. I can tell he's trying to hold in the biggest laugh the loser has ever had.

"Pfft- um... Okay..."

...

Huh? For a moment there... I kinda thought... He looked. Cute?

I shake my head, trying to rid that thought from my mind.

"So anyways, you tell me to leave you alone and you decide to play with me? I'm gonna be honest here, no matter how much you try to put up that little barrier of yours. I'm breaking in. Wait..."

"What?"

"That sounded kinda gay."

"What????l

"Nevermind that- what I'm trying to say: no matter how much you try to hide your reasons, I'll find out one way or another."

"Why don't I save you the trouble? I decided to toy with you because you seemed interesting... And pretty. Got it?"
He says, taking a sip from the water bottle on his desk.

My face turns hot. Pretty? I mean im used to getting called pretty from girls like Jett and other students but a guy? Now that's different.

"P-pretty? W-what are y-"

"Pheonix get back to your table, teacher's here."
My classmate sitting in front of my original table warns me.

I look up to see a short haired teacher, with green attire, glaring at my direction. I immediately get up and bring my chair to my desk.
