You had been battling to stay awake during class, your head beginning to droop from exhaustion. Deciding to close your eyes for just a moment, you allowed yourself to drift off to sleep.

Hours passed before you gradually stirred, feeling the effects of drowsiness beginning to wear off. Groggily, you lifted your head to find Kaizen sitting beside you, his hand gently holding yours. He gave you a teasing smirk as he greeted you.

"Glad to see you finally woke up, sleepyhead. You looked so adorable all passed out like that."

His touch was warm and comforting, sending a flutter of butterflies through your stomach and bringing a rush of heat to your cheek.
