Chariot's PoV

I fluttered my eyes up as soon I knew I had to wake up, eyes squinted as they scanned around the room. What the hell happened last night? Mideiro probably went home when I fell asleep after being such a baby. Also, why's there something warm embracing me? I looked down, noticing a pair of arms loosely wrapped around my waist. Wait, it can't be. I shifted immediately to face the other side, my nose bumping onto something.

I heard a weak groan, the figure beside me opening their eyes.

Those familiar sparkling golden eyes.

They just stared at me.

Once I realized, I probably acted out of panic but, I screamed and also pushed the man away from me, only to make me fall off the edge of my bed. I felt blood rushing towards my face, and I'm pretty sure I look like a tomato now. Shuffling came over the mattress as the same pair of eyes looked down at me as he spoke, " Argent! Are you alright!? "

Mideiro Kakyoin, the guy who spooned me in my sleep -- and I was supposed to be the big spoon!

I sat up and let him watch over me, the embarrassed and flustered Frenchman. I just buried my face in my hands and screeched, " I'm fine! " I heard him sigh and shuffle down the bed, kneeling right in front of me as I peeked through my fingers for a moment. He grabbed my wrists, ripping my hands away from my face and put them down on my lap, my gaze avoiding his.

" You don't have to be ashamed, Argent. We're friends, aren't we? " He said with kind and genuine smile, opening up his arms for a hug. He had his face mask off and I've never seen smile like this before. This was new of him but I appreciate it a lot. Without saying anything, I tackled him and did wrap my arms around his slim figure. I managed to stand up, lifting the man who weighed nothing to me effortlessly. I grinned widely as I spun us around the room with fits of laughter. I looked up at his smiling face and giggled as I exclaimed,

" Yeah! We're friends, and you're the bestest friend I could ever have! "

We both headed directly to school and towards our respective classes, he didn't have to go to my class since we bonded like a nighttime back at home. I took my seat, having a tiny smile plastered on my face as I just had the best morning ever. Usually Mideiro was silent or denied that we were friends but now I know how he feels. I rested on my arms, bored as my foot tapped against the floor. There wasn't anything interesting to do. Classes had started too, though I didn't pay too much attention from it.

My eyes darted here and there, basically anywhere except for class and a certain guy. I've been getting really distracted lately because of him, and it's clearly because I'm crushing on him like some idiot. I think our current lesson is English? I don't know, I'm not paying that much attention anyway since I aced this subject no matter what. At the corner of my eye, a silhouette was approaching me. I was about to speak as I turned right over to them, shutting them soon as I clearly saw who I faced.

It was Ahmar.

Merde or, in other terms, f u c k .

He had this stupid, heartwarming smile plastered on his face and his dimpled cheeks were softly dusted with red hue. He simply looked adorable, I don't even know how fast my heart is beating right now. I tried to keep it cool, leaning over to my own palm with its arm supporting it from the desk and raising brow up as I spoke, " W-what is it? " Did I just fucking stutter? " Oh! I was wondering if you can help me with this, " his voice sounded happy as ever, showing me whatever he had to ask me.

' Do you want to hang out after school? ' - what was written in the man's notebook.

I blinked a couple of times, then rubbed my eyes before looking at it again. It said the same thing. Did I read it right or are my eyes playing with me? I turned over to the sheepishly smiling Egyptian man, confused and also flustered at the same time as, I think, my cheeks were also red.

" Well, you see.. it takes at least a friend to do this and I was wondering- "

" Oui-- I mean, yes. " I cut him off while I sent him the smile that caused my fangirls to swoon.

Though I wasn't really expecting it, his smile only got wider, and just as I thought he couldn't be any more adorable. He brought his notebook back to him, tucked underneath his arms with a silent cheer of a " Yes! " with a tiny fist pump. The teacher cleared his throat, capturing the ebony skinned man's attention. Immediately apologizing, he went back to his seat and, somehow, I could still see his wide, adorable, toothy grin. I may have said this a lot of times to myself before but this man is going to be the death of me.

Lunch came around and I dashed right outside before the teacher could even leave the room and even I was the farthest from the door. I ran through the hallways, nearly slipped as I tried to halt when I got to Mideiro's class, failing to do so as I managed to fall on my arse. As I stood, a really tall figure walked out of mon amie's class. He was really huge, about 6 feet tall? Wait, if he's that tall then that's--

My thinking was cut short with someone poking my cheek, slapping it away instinctively as I turned to whoever poked me. Of course, it couldn't any other guy than Mideiro, who was giving me his everyday resting bitch face, though that really didn't ruin my mood for today. I placed my hands on each side of his shoulders, firmly gripping them as I swore I was grinning like the Cheshire Cat probably. He gave me this " What the fuck " look and I began to shake his entire body without mercy as I fanboy-ed, " He asked earlier if I wanted to hang out with him! "

" That's great, Argent, but stop shaking me please!!! " Mideiro was basically screaming, or begging, and I had to let go. He lost his balance from all the shaking, stumbling back and fell on his butt. I snickered for a moment but his groaning made me stop. I knelt over and grabbed his sides, lifting him up and help him remain standing with me as his support. " You alright? " I asked worriedly but with a chuckle to try and kinda lift his mood. He only replied with a whine, his head hung low, though I can't believe that he was that dizzy. I sighed and began to drag his body to the canteen and said,

" A'ight. Sorry, pal. Let's go eat some lunch, shall we? "
