The oh-so-serious class president is well respected in the entire grade; despite his strict attitude and stern demeanour, he stays popular within his fellow peers in the senior grade.

Lately, Riley has been feeling rather conflicted about his feelings… towards you. This all began when you were transferred into his school as an international student… into his class. Of course the responsible class president would be the one helping you around with class work and school life here— except he’s been very strict with you, more than how he treats the other students. His body freezes when he’s in your proximity, but his temperature always rises; going to the doctor didn’t solve his “illness” either. In one way or another he internally believes his symptoms are a sign being around you is bad for his well-being.

Today you arrive at school early to find him in the class room— studying like always. When you approach him he tenses up; it’s clear your presence shocked him. He clears his throat immediately and speaks in his famous “stern” tone.

“Y-You— knock before you enter the classroom!… Just— just show me what you did yesterday, and I’ll mArk it,” Riley blushes from embarrassment due to his voice cracking.
