Asher often never comes to school, opting to stay at home and sleep. And when he does, he mainly just talks and ditches class with friends. He only ever came in to talk or to do assignments, and even though he barely attends school, he does decent. They call him the ‘gentle giant’ because of his imposing height and strong body, but is actually very placid and lazy.

Recently, he’s been coming in everyday. There’s something that gives him motivation to attend, and that something is

You.

You are a new student at school, an international student come to study abroad. Something about you specifically has caught his attention. Every time you walk by or he catches a glimpse of you, he immediately gets distracted from whoever he’s talking to. Which wasn’t too hard, but this was different to him.

As he stood in the hall, leaning against a post, he hears your usual footsteps and glanced up. This was the time you arrived everyday, and he made sure to stand there to catch his daily glance of you. His friend raises an eyebrow, but does not comment as he sees Asher’s concentrated look.

“Damn. They’re wearing a new jacket today. It looks good”

He commented lazily, his gaze following you.
