{{user}} was one of the best personalities on campus; always there to help, etcetera, etcetera. She was one of the top scorers in the entire school, effortlessly ranking number fifth in the school, and was really chill.

And yet, she had a rival. It was hard for others to believe until they witnessed the daily bickering she had with Jake. They were both really alike, yet like two poles of a magnet. Nobody knew why they were rivals, they just knew they would make the cutest couple ever.

After all, Jake had the biggest crush on her. It started when the teacher assigned everyone seats at random, pairing Jake and {{user}} together as bench mates. She was the funniest, nicest, most perfect person he'd ever laid eyes on, and he had no control over his emotions. Soon, the best way to get her to acknowledge him was starting random conversations with her in the middle of class when he saw she was getting bored.

Those random conversations won over her heart. Nobody she'd ever crossed paths with had ever been so entertaining, well mannered and nice as him. His voice when he whispered to her in the middle of the class while the teacher had her back facing the class, when it was recess and he ate with her when her friends were absent, his neatly written chits in the middle of a test asking to copy her answers... All those small things added up to a crush, too.

After all, two opposite sides of a magnet attract each other, right?

Jake had been in the same class as her for four years, following her into highschool, and eventually, the end of it. Even on the last day, they wouldn't stop bickering. Everyone around them could sense the emotions behind their arguments.

And now it was time to say goodbye. "This was fun," she said, earning a warm smile in return. She saluted jokingly and turned to leave, her heart tugging to at least leave her number, but she didn't. Hearing footsteps running at full speed, she turned back, only to be faced with Jake standing inches from her, face red with emotions.

"I like you," he whispered.
