"Wow, Igarashi-kun! Nice game last Saturday!"

"Hey! Wanna hang out later today?

"Marry me, Igarashi!"

These are words that passed everyone's lips at Igarashi's high school. His skills at soccer, boyish charm, and all-around character caused everyone to practically worship him, and Iga didn't mind being Mr. Popular at all. He ended up with cool friends, pretty girlfriend, and a nice, typical life. It all worked out.

Except for one problem.

Not everyone in his grade idolized him, and one of those few people was a shy, blond boy called Nanashima Nozomu. He bothered Iga, not directly, but his disapproving glances and his bad-boy attitude made Iga uneasy. Luckily, Nanashima didn't really say anything. At all. He just stood alone, his earbuds stuffed in his ears and his head slightly bobbing from the tune.

It's been these way for Igarashi's two years at the high-school. Everything was perfect for him, but the one blond made him think twice about everything. Why? He would ask himself angrily. We haven't even spoken before.

But it was enough for Iga. He almost felt out of place with his own life, and the mysterious boy made him want to do something.

But what?

He pushed his thoughts into the back of head, like always, and continued his way down the hallway, smiling at his peers and ignoring the developing feelings that he held deep in his heart.

Igarashi sat in his classroom, drowsily looking on his phone as one of his friends Sakai blabbered endlessly into his ear about soccer plays or something like that. The raven-haired boy could honestly care less. The only thing that keep him awake at the moment was the unexpected find of Nanashima's social media account, which he was currently stalking.

"and so I said-! Igarashi! Dude, are you even listening?" Sakai snapped his fingers in front of Iga's face.

"Not really." Iga replied monotonously and continued swiping up on his phone, hoping that Nanashima's account would somehow unprivate, so he could look at his photos.

Sakai rolled his eyes irritably, before quickly snatching Iga's phone from his hands.

"Dude!" Iga yelled, his face red with embarrassment as he desperately reached for his item back.

"Nanashi-hey! Why are you on this dude's account?"

"I miss-clicked!" Iga protested, scowling angrily. He really wished his friends would respect his personal space.

"Whatever," his friend shrugged and threw Igarashi his phone, shaking his head with a careless look on his face.

Iga glanced at the screen one last time, admiring Nanashima's profile photo, a black and white artsy photo of himself, before shutting his phone off and stuffing it into his pocket. He sighed sharply, leaning back in his chair in deep thought, particularly about the blond.

Stupid. Blond. Cute. Boy.

Ugh.

There he was...

Igarashi stared at the blond boy who was standing casually near his locker, listening to his music as always. His emerald eyes were dull with boredom and he tapped his foot repeatedly against the locker, probably to his music.
