Robin's mind was elsewhere. He will never forget that short kiss. Maybe he is making a big deal out of the simplest thing, but he felt so relieved. It wasn't their first kiss at all, but it was the first in months, and while he does not hold any kind of grudge against his boyfriend, he had missed the sensation.
He spent the first class stealing glances at Willow, who looked absolutely stunning, even more so with his glasses on. His mildly serious look sometimes turns into confusion when he tucks some of his white strands of hair back behind his ear. Sometimes Willow slightly turned his head around to look at his boyfriend, gently smiling again, then focusing again on the class.
He really felt like he was in love with an angel. Not just due to his flawless face, but due to his whole being. And somehow, the whole class went by, way faster than expected. Willow turned to talk to his boyfriend.
"Are you okay? You didn't write much."
"I'm fine! I'm actually feeling a bit too good today."
"I'll just give you my notes then."
"You really are an angel, uh."
They had to go to another classroom for the next period, and so, while walking, they talked about various things.
"By the way, Robin, after what happened earlier... You really don't mind if I go to your place for the night?"
"Absolutely not! Even if you never asked me, I would have forced you anyway. Well, gently and respectfully, of course."
He wanted to kiss him again, but doing so in the middle of the hallway wasn't a good idea, he was a bit too shy for that. Also, Willow noticed the whispering of some of the people who noticed them earlier today. He wasn't able to ignore all that, and he did care about it. Maybe someday he will be able to overcome the looks... But it wasn't going to happen anytime soon.
He was tired, so much so that as he sat down in his seat next to Robin, he only wanted to lean down on his shoulder and fall asleep.
"You're feeling tired?"
"I feel like a zombie..."
And the period started; it was long and painful, but Willow managed to stay awake. And now it was time for them to go to the cafeteria. After sitting at a table with their food, a dark-skinned girl came to talk to them—it is the one and only Jahan.
"Hey, guys! Can I sit with you?"
"Fine by me! Mira's not here?"
"She's sick, so I'm alone for the day."
She sat next to Robin, since she already knew that Willow most likely agreed with his boyfriend.
Jahan is, as said before, a tall, dark-skinned girl who is absolutely stunning. She has flawless tastes when it comes to make-up and fashion. Confident, talkative, and so proud about being queer... No one really dares to annoy her, because every single person who tried ended up humiliated. Some are surprised that she's Mira's girlfriend, since they are that different.
While they didn't talk to each other for quite a long time, she was a great friend of Rowan, and so Willow knows her pretty well.
"That's rare."
"She was already sick Saturday... We were supposed to go to the arcade center, but oh well... She sent me a whole ass essay to apologize."
"Damn..."
"But hey, I'm feeling great today! Eirin seems so pissed off; it's enough to make my whole week a good one."
'D'you know why she's pissed?"
