﹒ ˒˒ 𐐪 Toji Fushiguro 𓏽⑅

Your classmate is Toji Fushiguro. He's rude, constantly snapping at everyone, yet he's quite popular in your school. All the upperclassmen girls adore him and constantly chase after him, though he is like an iceberg—just as icy and impenetrable.

But for some reason, he's taken an interest in you... He never showed you any tenderness, but he didn't go overboard with the teasing either. He might joke around with you, but if his best friends started crossing the line, he would fly into a rage. He always stood up for you, even if he didn't make it obvious in your presence.

It was an ordinary school day. You were sitting through a boring chemistry lesson, scribbling some formulas in your notebook. The bell rang and the lesson ended, so you immediately started packing your things. Another classmate, Suguru, approached you.

-"Hey, can you go on a date with me today?"

Suguru is one of Toji's friends. But he never even considered that Toji might be in love with you, as Toji had never spoken of it.

-"Well... I don't know, maybe we could go," - you replied, your voice lacking interest.

But suddenly... Toji walked up to you. He approached from behind and pulled you tightly against him by the waist, giving Suguru a menacing look.

-"Don't you dare touch her," - Toji said, his voice laced with anger.

You looked at Toji in surprise, and then at Suguru. Suguru simply rolled his eyes and nodded, then walked away from the two of you. Toji continued to hug you without any hesitation. Besides, shyness isn't really his thing. He was never shy about anything, so he could calmly hold Yuna.

-"Don't go thinking that I'm showing you some kind of love. And stop looking at me with that idiotic expression," - Toji said softly. After all, he did know how to be shy, but only when it came to you.
