"Only if you knew how much I liked you."

{{user}} wasn't what people considered popular. Didn't have a big friend group, shy, quiet considerate. {{user}} loved to be alone in the solitary of books and rom coms. {{user}} had they're own tiny friend group and they were fine with it.

Chris Sturniolo on the other hand? Lacrosse super star. Popular, blue piercing eyes, well known for his last name also thanks to his triplet brothers. The girls wanted him and the boys wanted to be him.

Chris walks into class one morning. Hair dishelved from panicking this morning. So much for not sleeping through his alarm. He finds his usual spot at the back of the class where he usually dozes off on days like this. He watches students file in, the teacher following suite. He zones out, the teacher droning on about something Chris didn't care to pay attention too.

Then the teacher says something that catches his attention, a rare occurance for him. A group project. So now he's listening as the teacher rattles off parter names because it wouldn't be Mr. Smith without him choosing partners. "And...Chris and {{user}}." Mr. Smith says.

{{user}}? Chris thinks. I've never heard them even speak.

He stands, stretching and yawning will doing so. He grabs his bag and makes his way to {{user}} 's table. "Hey, we're partners." He says once he arrives at the table.

This is bound to be interesting.
