Till high school Au

LUKA Luka is probably the most sociable person in the entire high school. He gets along well with practically everyone. Teachers. Students. Clubs. Athletes. Even people who normally can't stand each other. She always seems to know what's going on at school before everyone else. And, honestly, that's probably true. Luka loves gossip. Not because I want to hurt people. Simply because she finds them fascinating to observe. He likes to analyze relationships, emotions, and conflicts as if he were watching a play. She has a charming, fun, and charismatic personality. But she can also be a real viper when she wants to be. He loves making provocative comments. Pranks. Uncomfortably precise observations. And questions that make others question things they would rather ignore. He is especially annoying with Ivan. Because he knows exactly which buttons to push. And he's gorgeous blond with light eyes, even though he's annoying.

Hyuna is a senior student and one of the most admired people in school. She has a strong and confident presence that usually draws attention as soon as she enters a room. She is incredibly beautiful. She has a mature and elegant appearance that sets her apart from most students. She has long, dark brown hair and a somewhat mature look. Many people find her intimidating at first because of her confidence and direct nature. However, those who know her quickly discover that behind that attitude there is someone deeply protective. Hyuna acts as the mother of the group. He is the one who listens to problems. Someone who accompanies others when they are going through bad times. Someone who gives advice even when no one asked for it. And who scolds when someone is being stupid? He maintains a particularly close friendship with Till because he never tries to fix him or treat him as if he's broken. He simply accepts him as he is. She is also one of the few people capable of standing up to Luka without being manipulated by him. She is currently in a relationship with Luka. Although many people don't understand how they work together, she seems to be one of the few people able to see beyond their jokes and provocations.

SUA Sua is Ivan's younger sister and is seventeen years old. Unlike her brother, she doesn't immediately attract attention. Many people are slow to realize how beautiful she is because she tends to be quiet and avoids being the center of attention. She possesses an elegant and serene beauty. Her presence exudes calm. She has a way of observing others that makes people feel understood even when she says nothing. Her movements are tranquil, and she rarely seems rushed. She has cute, short, bobbed black hair in a Lolita style with a pretty fringe across her forehead and purple eyes. Sua is reserved, intelligent, and extremely observant. She speaks little, but when she does, she usually says exactly what she thinks. She's not very interested in gossip or school drama. She prefers listening to speaking. Although she loves Ivan dearly, she tends to lose her temper with him more than anyone else. She knows all his quirks perfectly, especially his tendency to become obsessed with people he considers important. When Ivan becomes overly protective, insistent, or intense, Sua is usually the first to call him out on it. Despite that, the two are very close. Sua also maintains a close relationship with Till. Neither of them is particularly talkative, so they often share silences that never feel awkward. Sometimes they can spend several minutes together without saying a word and still feel like they're in each other's company. She is deeply in love with Mizi and usually shows it through small gestures rather than words.

MIZI

Mizi is one of the most popular students in high school and probably one of the most beloved people by almost everyone. She's seventeen years old and has such a vibrant energy that it's hard to ignore her. Her smile seems capable of brightening anyone's day, and she has a natural ability to connect with others without making them feel uncomfortable. She's kind, optimistic, expressive, and extremely caring. She's always talking to someone, helping a classmate, or trying to include others in conversations and activities. Many people consider her the heart of the group.

Physically, she is a very beautiful girl. She has soft features, expressive eyes, and a warm smile that usually inspires confidence. Her long, well-groomed hair, along with her cheerful way of dressing and behaving, makes her naturally stand out among the students, and she has green eyes. Due to her beauty and kind personality, she constantly receives romantic attention from other students, especially boys.

However, this attention often makes her more uncomfortable than people realize. Mizi has never understood why so many people develop feelings for her without really knowing her. She especially dislikes it when someone idealizes her or expects something from her simply because they find her pretty. That's why she usually politely declines any romantic confession.

The only exception is Sua.

Sua is the person with whom he feels completely comfortable. His girlfriend. His safe place.

Although they are very different, Mizi and Sua understand each other perfectly. Mizi often speaks for both of them when they are in public, while Sua listens with infinite patience. For Mizi, Sua is tranquility. For Sua, Mizi is light.

Furthermore, Mizi is one of Ivan's best friends. They've known each other for years, and their friendship works precisely because Ivan never treated her like a popular girl or someone to impress. With him, she can be completely herself.

His personal style is influenced by alternative music, rock, and emo aesthetics. He likes dark bracelets, metal accessories, large headphones, understated chains, and any detail that allows him to express a bit of individuality within the school's rules. Even when wearing the official uniform, he finds small ways to personalize it. His overall appearance gives the impression of someone trying to build armor around themselves. Psychologically, Till is much more sensitive than he appears. He's impulsive, emotional, and tends to react with irritation when he feels vulnerable. He has difficulty expressing affection directly and often ends up pushing people away before they can get too close. Not because he doesn't love them, but because he fears becoming emotionally dependent on someone and ending up being abandoned. When someone tries to help him, he usually responds with sarcasm or evasiveness. However, those who manage to break through that barrier discover an incredibly loyal, protective person capable of deeply caring for others. Till lives primarily with his father, a hard-working man who spends much of his time away from home due to his job. Although there is affection between them, they rarely discuss feelings or personal problems. As a result, Till spent much of his adolescence learning to cope with his emotions on his own. At school, he maintains a close friendship with Hyuna, who is one of the few people able to tolerate his personality without taking his comments too seriously. He also knows Mizi and Sua well, though he tends to keep a certain distance even from them. During childhood, Ivan was the person closest to him. However, as popularity and fame began to surround Ivan, Till started to feel increasingly small and insecure around him. Without realizing it, he ended up drifting away from the person he valued most.

TIL Till is seventeen and attends the same high school as Ivan. Unlike Ivan, Till doesn't stand out for popularity, academic achievements, or impeccable appearance. Most students consider him strange, unpredictable, or difficult to understand. He isn't isolated or ostracized, but many people prefer to keep their distance because of his defensive attitude and the alternative image he projects. Till doesn't really care what people think of him, or at least that's what he tries to appear to be. Physically, he has a much more disheveled and expressive appearance than Ivan. His hair is a light greenish hue and usually looks unkempt, as if he never spends much time styling it. Some strands stick out in different directions, giving him a rebellious and somewhat wild look. His eyes are light and very expressive; when he's annoyed, happy, embarrassed, or uncomfortable, it's practically impossible to hide it. Unlike Ivan, who usually hides his emotions behind a calm smile, Till wears his feelings written all over his face, even if he tries to deny it. He has a slender build and is slightly shorter than Ivan. He's not particularly athletic, but he's not frail either. He simply has the build of someone who's very active, sleeps little, and often forgets to eat when he's distracted. His shoulders are somewhat broader than they appear because of the baggy clothes he usually wears outside of his uniform. His hands bear small marks and scars from falls, accidents, or carelessness accumulated over the years. There always seems to be something imperfect about him: a button askew, a crooked tie, a rolled-up sleeve, or his hair more disheveled than usual.

Even when Ivan smiles, he often gives the impression of hiding something behind his eyes. His face has soft, harmonious features. A delicate nose, fine lips, and balanced features contribute to the reputation for good looks that has followed him since childhood. However, those who know him best know that Ivan's most striking characteristic is not his appearance but the way he observes people. He has a habit of remembering small details that others forget: favorite colors, phrases spoken years ago, fleeting expressions, or seemingly insignificant habits. In terms of personality, Ivan is calm, observant, and deeply loyal. He speaks little but listens a great deal. He rarely interrupts others and seldom raises his voice. He has almost inexhaustible patience and a tendency to prioritize the needs of others over his own. Sometimes this causes him to ignore his own feelings for too long. He is intelligent, responsible, and gets excellent grades without much effort. He likes photographs, old cameras, scrapbooks, objects with history, and anything that can preserve important moments. He has a quiet fear of forgetting the people he loves, and so he keeps letters, drawings, photographs, and small objects that would be worthless to others. His family consists mainly of his younger sister, Sua. Due to their parents' frequent absences for work, they grew up very dependent on each other. Ivan always assumed a protective role, while Sua became one of the few people capable of understanding him without explanation. She can usually tell when he's sad even if he's smiling, and when he's worried even if he insists everything is fine. Despite being very close, they both have a habit of hiding their problems so as not to worry the other. During his childhood, the most important person to Ivan was Till.

IVAN

Ivan is seventeen years old and one of those students whose presence seems to draw attention even when he's completely silent. From a young age, he worked as a child model, something that profoundly influenced how he grew up and how people perceive him. His face appears in old photographs, advertisements, catalogs, and advertising campaigns that many students remember seeing years ago. Because of this, by the time he reached high school, he already had a certain level of fame. However, that popularity was never something he actively sought. To most people, Ivan seems perfect: intelligent, polite, attractive, and elegant. What almost no one knows is that behind that image is a young man who has spent years feeling watched, judged, and molded by other people's expectations.

Physically, Ivan possesses a delicate, almost ethereal beauty that often leads people to compare him to a photograph or a painting. He is tall for his age, with a remarkably slender figure due to the physical standards imposed on him for years in the modeling industry. Even when he tries to eat more or get better rest, he still maintains a light and fragile appearance that sometimes makes him seem more vulnerable than he actually is. His shoulders are narrow, his hands are long and slender, and his movements have a natural elegance that rarely goes unnoticed.

Her skin is very fair and even, the result of years of photo shoots and routines imposed by agencies and representatives. Her hair is dark, soft, and slightly wavy, with strands that naturally fall over her forehead. When the light hits it, her hair takes on very subtle blue highlights. Her eyes are large and expressive, a dark shade that seems to change depending on the lighting. Many people remember her gaze in particular because it conveys a strange mix of sweetness and sadness.

Long before high school, when they were still children, Ivan and Till were inseparable. They met in elementary school. Till was restless, impulsive, and always ended up with scraped knees. Ivan was calm, patient, and had an uncanny ability to listen even when Till talked too much. While other children played in large groups, they spent their afternoons together. They built makeshift forts. They were exploring parks. They shared lunches. And they would talk about anything until their parents forced them to go home. For Till, Ivan was simply Ivan. Not the pretty boy. Not the prodigy. Not the person everyone admired. Only your best friend. But as they grew up, things changed. Ivan started working as a child model. She appeared in advertisements. Magazines. Catalogs. Even students from other courses knew his name. People were constantly approaching him. Professors praised him. Colleagues wanted to sit near him. Everyone seemed fascinated by Ivan. Except Till. And perhaps that was precisely what Ivan liked most for years. Because with Till he could feel normal. However, as they entered high school, the distance began to grow. Not because of a fight. Not because of a betrayal. But for something much simpler. Till began to feel that he no longer belonged to the same world as Ivan.

Every time he saw people surrounding him.

Every time I heard rumors about him.

Every time I saw how easy everything seemed to be for him.

I felt something uncomfortable inside my chest.

It wasn't hate.

It wasn't resentment.

It was a more bitter feeling.

How to fall behind while someone important keeps moving forward.

Then he began to walk away.

First, he stopped writing to her so often.

Then she stopped looking for him after school.

Then he started making up excuses.

"I'm busy."

"I have to go."

"Maybe another day."

Ivan noticed it.

Of course he noticed.

But she never understood why.
