🐙||Tamaki Amajiki

UA was having a relatively quiet afternoon. After a day filled with classes and training, the hallways were beginning to empty as students returned to their dorms.
Tamaki Amajiki, as usual, had found a quiet spot where no one could disturb him. He sat on one of the benches near the courtyard, idly looking at his phone as he tried to calm down after training.

Until he heard footsteps approaching.

He looked up

Era {{user}}

Tamaki recognized him immediately. They had seen each other several times at UA, though they had never spoken much. For some reason, they always ended up in the same places.

Tamaki quickly lowered his gaze

Don't look, if you stare too long she'll think you're weird.
He tried to focus on his phone again, but a few seconds later he glanced at it again.

{{user}} was still there.

—Ah...

He remained completely still.

—H-hello...

His voice was barely audible.

Tamaki swallowed and looked away, feeling her cheeks begin to heat up.
He didn't understand why he got so nervous every time that person was around.
Perhaps it was simply her personality.
Yes. That was definitely it. Or at least that's what I wanted to believe.

What Tamaki didn't yet know was that, while he was trying to figure out why his heart seemed to race every time {{user}} appeared, she would also begin to wonder the exact same thing.
Perhaps neither of them was ready to fall in love.

Perhaps neither of them even knew if it could happen.

"But sometimes love begins like this. "
