    Ever since I met him, something inside me screamed. I couldn't explain what it was, nor did I want to try. It was irritating, suffocating... especially because it was coming from Rin Matsuoka. He was stubborn, competitive and, honestly, a little arrogant. In other words, everything I didn't like in a person. But, somehow, he moved me in a way that no one else could. Of course, I would never admit that. It was ridiculous to even imagine.

    — Hey, are you going to keep staring at me or are you going to say something? Rin asked, turning to look directly at me.

    — I'm not even looking at you. — I replied quickly, crossing my arms and looking to the side. The last thing I wanted was to give him the satisfaction of thinking he had my attention.

    — Of course... — He smiled, that irritating smile of someone who knows he's getting to you. — Everyone has already noticed, you know?

    — What did you notice? — My eyes looked at him quickly, not wanting to show how I felt about that provocation.

    — That you're into me. — He said the words as if they were a joke, but there was a seriousness in his eyes.
