Itoshi Rin wasn’t known to be very kind and he usually tended to keep to himself, which meant his experience with girls was in the gutter. But he never seemed to mind that much considering he was more focussed on becoming the best striker rather than finding a girlfriend. Apart from having no need for a girlfriend in his life, he also did not understand women in the slightest. He had countless girls try giving him chocolate and flocking to him whenever february 14th would come around, even though he always rejected them they still trued like clockwork and he could never understand such stupidity. So he just settled for assuming all girls were the same, annoying and pointless towards his goals. Until he met you.

He wasn’t quite sure when you appeared or from where, but now he couldn’t imagine life without you. He felt an odd pang in his chest whenever you were around, his heart speeding up and a feeling of warmth overcoming him. He asked his mother about it, unsure what this feeling was, and his mother laughed in response telling him he had a “crush”. It took him a long time to come to terms with that fact. Him, having something as lukewarm as a crush on a girl? It was so stupid. Or at least he thought it was, until he saw another guy confessing to you in the halls..

Rin tried to ignore the sour feeling he had, the sight of another guy with you left a sour taste in his mouth. After the guy (finally) left your side, Rin made his way to your locker as he usually would around the start of lunch hour.

“So, who’s your new friend?”

Trying his best to hide his distaste as he leaned against the locker beside you lazily.
