From Introvert To Inlove

Chapter 1: Nice To Meet You

Yaaaaay! A Z rank pull!" Jonathan yelled.
 
Jonathan celebrated hysterically as the other students in the room looked at him like an idiot.
 
"A Z rank pull!!??" Nicole thought to herself.
 
These two introverts, Jonathan and Nicole, played the same game but didn't talk to each other. They weren't friends, nor lovers, nothing. It had been two months of school, and they didn't even know each other—just two literal introverts. Nicole Anderson, born into a rich family, was cute and pretty, with long black hair and brown eyes, and really wanted to talk about their favorite game, but she couldn't overcome her shyness.
 
The game was called Zombie Outbreak, where you controlled Waifus to kill incoming zombies with a storyline. There was a gacha system where you could roll and get uncommon waifus, common, rare, legendary, and so on. The higher the rank of the character, the harder it was to get the pull.
 
"It's Maria Elizabeth!!" Jonathan yelled.
 
"Maria Elizabeth!!!" Nicole thought to herself.
 
Even how annoying Jonathan was in the classroom, people just let him be and continued on what they were doing. Even bullies just ignored him. Maria Elizabeth was a legendary pull and the most first legendary pull of Jonathan. Nicole had been really lucky, mostly because she always got legendary pulls but never got Maria Elizabeth.
 
Jonathan and Nicole were once extroverts when they were young and turned into introverts during and after the pandemic when they reached grade 8. They needed to do a lockdown to prevent the virus from spreading. Oh right, Jonathan, who came from a normal life family with handsome, dark hair and brown eyes, joined a long-running gang when he was in grades 4 to 7.
 
All the gang did was go around bullying people outside of the school or inside. These were the rumors people heard, and the reason why they feared him was because Jonathan was a top 4 feared one in the gangs. They were afraid of him because he may have a lot more experience of fighting than them, which the rumors were actually true. He looked like some kind of kid in his teens with an inner beast inside him. He still had tattoos around his body that he hid from everyone.
 
The pandemic called Dotted Virus when they were in grade 8 was the reason why they turned introverts because they were focused on social media and gaming. All of Jonathan and Nicole's friends went to different schools, leaving them behind.

Oh wait, who's that?
 
Clack
 
Looks like we have a new character.
 
Clack
 
It is
 
Clack
 
Marylin Jones, beloved sister of Jonathan. Jonathan and Marylin had a normal relationship when they were young but somehow gained a different kind of relationship in their teens. It was called complex, but a different kind of complex. Jonathan gained a sister complex when he started watching romance shows that sometimes show brothers and sisters giving too much love to each other. The same went for Marylin. In seating arrangement, Marylin sat beside Jonathan, and Nicole sat in front of him.
 
"Hi brother," Marylin greeted Jonathan after taking a seat.
 
"Yow," Jonathan replied.
 
"Yow? Seriously, yow? That's the best thing you got, Onichan?" Marylin thought to herself.
 
Marylin moved her chair near to Jonathan. She grabbed his head and put her mouth closer to his ear.
 
"Brother, that is not the proper way to greet someone. How about giving me a kiss to show your proper greetings and love for me?" Marylin whispered to Jonathan's ear.
 
"Wh-what? What is happening right now? And did she just say kiss? Is this incest? And how can I reject a legendary offer from my sister? Y-you know what? Say less, anything for my sister to be happy," Jonathan thought to himself.
 
Jonathan closed his eyes, ready for a mouth-to-mouth kiss. His face went closer, but he felt air like there was no one there and touching air. Jonathan opened his eyes. Marylin was back to her seat, blushing and kicking the air under his chair. Jonathan felt the embarrassment and hid under his table. Marylin meant for a kiss on the cheek, but she was also thinking about a mouth-to-mouth kiss.
 
A lot of people around the room saw the scene, including Nicole, who had their mouths wide open with shocked faces. They couldn't even believe what they just saw.
 
"What the fuck are these two's relationships?" Nicole thought to herself.
 
Riiiiiiiiiinnnnngggggg
 
The bell of lunchtime rang. Jonathan and his sister went straight to the cafeteria, ordered food, and went to a vacant table.
While Nicole, holding her food in the middle of the cafeteria, had nowhere to go and was looking around for a vacant seat. Jonathan looked around while eating; he saw Nicole with a puzzled face, and she was like in a war.
 
"Nicole! Over here!" Jonathan shouted.
 
Nicole looked where the shouting came from. Jonathan was waving his hand and pointing to an empty seat in their opposite seat. Jonathan just pitied Nicole. Even how introverted he was, he would try to overcome some things.
 
Nicole went over to Jonathan and Marylin and took a seat.
 
"Thank you," Nicole said.
 
"Yeah, but there's an exchange," Jonathan replied.
 
"An exchange? You literally offered me a seat and needed an exchange? Okay, what exchange? I have money, things, or Pervy thoughts with Jonathan."
 
"Your homework," Jonathan said.
 
"Oh assignment," Nicole thought and nodded, but suddenly blushed after remembering herself imagining pervy thoughts.
 
So it wasn't pity, but homework.
 
"Brother, you can cheat my assignment after this," Marylin said to Jonathan.
 
"Oh, so what's the exchange then?" Jonathan asked.
 
When Jonathan was young, he always did things for free. So when he realized what he was doing, he kept in mind that everything he did needed to have an exchange.
 
"A sniff on the thighs?" Jonathan thought out loud.
 
The two choked on their food. Jonathan panicked and thought of things to change the subject.
 
"How about $1?" Jonathan said.
 
Nicole hastily took out a dollar and gave it to Jonathan. Such an embarrassing situation for Jonathan. He just continued eating his food.
 
"My my, Nicole, how much do you know about my brother? And brother, don't think about pervy stuff," Marylin asked and said, trying to boost the mood.
 
"It is null; this is the first time we talk to each other," Jonathan answered.
 
Nicole just thought about the two, mostly what happened that morning. That was the very first time the two siblings did that stunt.
 
"Well, Nicole, how about the two of you get to know each other? My brother doesn't even have a single friend in this school and just talks to me and only plays on his PC on the weekends. So how about the two of you hang around and play or talk or anything?" Marylin said to the two.
 
"More like a date to me," Jonathan thought to himself.
 
"Well, I could use help to defeat the game in hard mode, and he is the only one I know who plays the same game as me," Nicole thought to herself.
 
They both started daydreaming and, poof, went to their senses. Nicole ordered Jonathan to give his phone to her. Jonathan opened his WeBook app and gave Nicole his phone. When Nicole saw his profile picture, she got carried away and blushed at the handsome profile picture. Jonathan looked more handsome and different on his profile, but maybe because of the haircut.
 
Nicole used Jonathan's phone and friended herself on the app and gave Jonathan his phone back. Then Jonathan looked at his phone; he was met by the beautiful face of Nicole's profile picture.
 
"Fight it, Jonathan, fight it!" Jonathan thought to himself.
 
"I want him in this haircut right now!" Nicole thought to herself while admiring Jonathan's profile picture.
 
"Want to play Zombie Outbreak later or tonight?" Nicole asked.
 
"Okay," Jonathan replied.
 
"Why do I feel like these two will get into a romance story?" Marylin thought to herself.
 
Quote for the Day (I made it):
"I haven't married you in this world, not until my ending. But in the next world, I will marry you, and I will regain the true ending."
