Kei can't help it.

Can't help but stare, can't help but smile, can't help but want to be near you.

It was irrational, he thought. Being so drawn to someone he'd barely ever talked to. But, as fate had it, he just couldn't help but slowly fall in love with you.

It was a regular day at Karasuno High when the blonde found himself in a particularly lucky situation. His practice had just ended, and he spotted you on campus at the vending machine.

"What are you still doing here?" He asked, voice surprisingly calm considering how fervently the butterflies were flapping their wings in his stomach.

Maybe, if Kei could use even a fraction of the intelligence he so often prided himself on, he could be a normal human being and make conversation.
