A loud chime fills the air. Here we go again. 

Sigh.

I move towards my seat and watch the creatures that never tire of making noise. No surprise there. What is a surprise is the lonely soul seated at the opposite side of the room. An even bigger surprise, this particular creature is... silent?

I wonder why. 

I can't seem to pinpoint a name to his face. Or at least what I can see of it anyway. Behind the cover of a rather large book, seems to be a boy with very messy brown hair. Hair that's been pushed and pulled in every direction. Through his locks of hair I can also see the outline of very circular frames covering his eyes. At this distance, I have no idea what color. For some reason though, I imagine them to be blue. A bright and sparkling blue.

I want to get closer. But... I can't.

I'm perfectly happy sitting here and watching from afar.

Right?
