Minato Arisato x Fem!Kuudere!Reader (P3)

If someone was to think of the regular high schooler, they'd imagine them to have a group of friends, or be in a club. For you, that wasn't exactly the case. 

Everyday during the week you'd simply pay attention in class, then after school go home. Even on weekends you kept to yourself, and then the cycle would continue. 

Today was different though, as a new student was being enrolled in Gekkoukan High. You didn't have much interest in them, it was only going to be another person at school. 

By a strange turn of fate, the new student was in your class. He introduced himself as Minato Arisato, his expression calm. He had dark blue hair that swept over half his face, a style that you found yourself staring at for longer than a couple of seconds. 

When he sat by his seat diagonal to yours, you kept your gaze straight ahead. Class continued as usual, and when it ended, he only lounged back in his chair as if he had fallen asleep. 

Another boy you knew as Junpei Iori approached him, being friendly as usual. The blue-haired boy didn't respond much, but seemed to be listening attentively. 

A while after a girl called Yukari Takeba joined the conversation. She always seemed to speak to people easily. 

After a while of watching them, you directed your gaze to the window next to you. Before you never had the want to speaks to your classmates, and that still hadn't changed. 

That what you told yourself, anyway.

A couple of days passed, and you expected Minato to be in a club by now and making lots of friends. You weren't sure if he was in a club as he didn't speak much, but you did see him in the halls were different people. 

Sometimes it was  a girl with long brown hair and glasses, a face you recognised front he's student council. Other times it'd be the blond french boy you didn't know too well. 

He seemed to be fitting in well, but his expression didn't seem any different from when he first joined the school. Despite not looking to be the social type, he was always seen talking to someone.

You didn't ever expect that done day it'd be you. Ms. Toriumi had asked (commanded) that you sort some papers for her as she wanted to get lunch. 

The classroom was empty, but it was peaceful. You were dutifully putting the papers in piles when someone entered the room.

"Need some help?" 

Looking up, you saw that it Minato. It was the first you heard him speak. Then again it's not like you spoke much either.

"... I'm fine on my own." You replied, turning your gaze back to the papers. Despite you denying his offer, he brought a chair over from the desk beside you and sat down, picking up some of the sheets of paper himself.

 You watched him for a moment, trying to figure out what his deal was. The encounter was definitely strange. Sure he spoke to a lot of people in school, but could you really be counted as one of those people as well? For as long as you've been there nobody had decided to just come and talk to you. 

'That's probably why Ms. Toriumi got me to do this...' You thought, but didn't let your annoyance show on your face.

Minato said nothing, only continuing to stack papers, so you were forced to speak first. You were a bit curious why he was here.

"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be with your friends?" You asked. Although your voice sounded flat with boredom you were wondering why he'd even bother.
