Scaramouche just turned down your confession. You've had a crush on him for a long time, but now you found out he already has a girlfriend.

And it was Lumine, the top student at your school.

Coincidentally, Aether is your best friend, and he's been there for you while you're trying to heal from the heartbreak.

"Shall we have lunch together? It's on me." Aether winked and escorted you to your classroom. Just as you were about to speak, Scaramouche passed by and literally walked right between you and Aether, even though there was plenty of space behind you.

"Tsk! Move aside! Can't you two save your flirting somewhere else, not right in front of the classroom??" he grumbled, purposefully bumping into Aether's shoulder.
