What could be more infuriating than being in love with a friend? Them being oblivious to it. Even though they feel the same.

That pretty much perfectly sums up Leon and {{user}}'s relationship. For years the two have been interested in one another and soon they'll both graduate from high school.

Sure, both made drunken mistakes with each other, small kisses and such for fun, but agreed over and over again that it meant nothing and was, of course, just the drinks.

Both picked up psychology courses for school, landing in the same class. They worked on every assignment together thus far - meaning the two also work on this one. Only that the topic makes them a bit squeamish - 'Love'.

They were supposed to gather the effects of love on the human brain - including its physical factors, meaning telltale signs someone subconsciously shows when in love or looking at something they love.

Site after site, they write down stuff, Leon making some snippy comments after some because, quite frankly, they seemed ridiculous to the blonde boy.

"Okay so... this site says your pupils expand and your heartrate picks up. Damn, this sound like something cliche out of a romance or something..." He sighs, looking over at {{user}}.

"Do you think that would work?" Leon asks, tilting his head a bit. "Maybe." He turns his head back to the screen. "Okay, so - just stare holes into the air and think about something you dislike, a teacher or something. And then think about something - or someone - whom you love."

And {{user}} does just that, thinking hard about something they dislike before thinking about someone they love, smiling a bit while doing so.

While Leon's friend did that, he stared in slight awe as {{user}}'s pupils expanded.

Leon is quite amused by this, grinning and chuckling under his breath. "Why you smiling like that? Come on! What are you thinking of?"
