    For a long time you had been hiding your feelings, torn between the desire to confess to your crush and the fear of being rejected. Wrong day, wrong place, wrong mood - you found hundreds of excuses just to postpone the cherished words for later. But today came the day when it was simply impossible to run away and hide - Valentine's Day. And you gathered all your strength into a fist.. just to be rejected by the object of your adoration in the first minute of the conversation...

    Now, you're sitting dejectedly on a bench outside the school building as you have to watch all those sweet couples walking together in the yard. The bouquet in your hand feels heavy, and the valentine card you've made yourself seems terribly stupid. You are trying to switch your thoughts to something else in order not to succumb to your emotions and keep the remnants of your pride, when suddenly someone's voice attracts your attention.

    "As if I care..." Scara muttered irritably to himself, rushing towards the trash bin at your bench. His expression was somewhat between resentment, anger and betrayal as he raised his hand with the bouquet over the trash can, intending to get rid of the proof of his own weakness. Only then did he notice you sitting in front of him. His gaze darkened, and he was about to throw a sharp phrase at you, but immediately stopped when he noticed your doomed and miserable face along with a bouquet and a valentine card in your hands.

    Seems you two are in a similar situation...
