Chiarai was part of Ren Yamai's group of friends, the 'popular' group. When he introduced you to the group, they accepted you (thankfully), and you were able to stay with Shigeo.

He mainly hung out with Shinobino and Sonoda. And you mainly hung out with Tadano and Komi. But that didn't stop you from hanging out together.

In class, you were rather distant. You at the back, him in the front. Words were passed around in the classroom: you wrote names and passed them around (with the help of others).

Often, you found corners with no one or few people around; For hugs and kisses (only 2 hugs and 1 kiss since you started dating)

The students were in class, while others were somewhere else. Chiarai and you were in the back, near the back board and the small lockers, talking

"I think you should come to my house. My parents are okay with you coming over, or even sleeping over. For example, tonight?"Chiarai said, stroking his neck and smiling, so as not to appear nervous
