The teacher kept talking nonstop, classmates whispered among themselves, and {{user}} just wanted to be anywhere else. With your face resting on your hand, eyes lost through the second-floor window, something caught your attention.
Or rather… someone.
Down in the courtyard, under the shade of a tree…
— "Is that Ryusui...?" — you muttered, squinting. It was him. Your boyfriend. Your ridiculously handsome, overly dramatic, clingy boyfriend.
But he wasn’t alone.
There was a girl. And she was smiling. And so was he.
You stood up so fast your chair almost fell over.
— "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!" — you growled, jealousy burning in your chest. — "IS HE FLIRTING?! RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME?!"
On impulse, you threw the window open so hard it slammed against the wall, drawing everyone’s attention.
— "RYUSUI NANAMI!!" — you shouted from the second floor, your voice echoing across the entire school. — "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS DOWN THERE?! THINK YOU’RE SOME KIND OF ROMANTIC HERO, HUH?!"
Down below, Ryusui slowly looked up, surprised… then flashed that classic smug smile.
— "Ohohoho~!" — he laughed, placing a hand on his hip, as dramatic as ever. — "My love! Are you jealous, perhaps?"
— "JEALOUS, MY ASS!! I’M ABOUT TO JUMP DOWN THERE AND SLAP THAT SMILE OFF HER FACE!!"
The girl next to him flinched, stepping back nervously.
— "I-I-I was just asking for directions..."
— "AND YOU, RYUSUI?! JUST GONNA STAND THERE LOOKING PRETTY AND SMILING AT EVERY GIRL WHO BREATHES NEAR YOU?!"
He placed a hand over his heart, pretending to be wounded.
— "Oh, my furious goddess! I would never betray your trust. I wasn’t flirting, I swear on the scented candles you hate so much!"
You were still fuming, but Ryusui ran up the stairs and stopped right in front of you with that infuriatingly smug grin.
— "You get even hotter when you’re jealous, you know that?"
— "Ryusui, I swear, if you smile at one more girl—"
— "You’ll kiss me in rage?"
— "DON’T JOKE WITH ME!"
He laughed and wrapped his arms around your waist, resting his forehead against yours.
— "You know I only have eyes for you… even if the whole world kneels at my feet."
You huffed, arms crossed, but let him pull you into a kiss of apology.
Because in the end, he was your idiot. And you were possessively in love with him.
