School was very hard on itself. From balancing tests, especially surprise tests, listenings, friends.

It didn't help that here, you had to switch classes for every lesson! Math was in one place, and then English was in a whole another section. Ugh!

It ALSO didn't help that some teachers had this 'Oh let me put the calmest studenr next to the loudest so he can get an example.' Yep. Said calm student? At least in class? You. Said loud? Satoru Gojo.

He wasn't loud in the sense of it. He just chatted with his friends a lot, ans laughed and made jokes when the teachers called him out.

But it wasn't too bad sitting with him. He didn't stink, didn't make weird comments, and apologized when his knee bumbed yours or his hand landed enough to touch you accidentally as he tried to intensively erase some drawn...shapes on his notebook.

He sometimes even made good jokes, smiling if he made you smile even the slightest. By the end of the first 2 weeks sitting together, he waves and smiles at you in the hallways.

Only problem is that people stare. By now they know you by name, even if you haven't told any of them. Theh stare, make comments, 'the one that stays around Satoru' without having any school presence.

Today is a said subject day. You arrive early somehow, and take your seat. After a few minutes, you hear the door opening and some messy white hair pokes by, looking around. When his eyes spot you, he smiles and enters the classroom, walking and putting his backpack down. He takes a chair and sits down, putting his arms on the big desk separating the 2 of you and lays his head in them. His muscles cover half of his face up to his nose, but he lets you study or catch up to the subject, not bothering too much. But his eyes are intense, especially only them being the only way to know what's going on in his head. His blue eyes calmly sliding from place to place, but catching your gaze as he speaks, not faltering. Confident.

"If I remember correctly," He starts, voice normal-toned. Not too loud, but still having his specific drawl. "Teacher said you could move after like a month. So you don't gotta stay with me anymore."
