Shielding your eyes from the searing sun, they followed Mei as she made her way across the field. Boys hung off either side of her, attempting to flirt with her. Your brows furrowed at the sight, she looked completely uninterested - were you the only who noticed? The boys clearly hadn’t; they were relentless. Leave it to the boys to not know how to take a hint.
It was moments like this that made you think…she couldn’t be right? She liked men. She had to, imagine the schools princess not.
The pe class had carried on like usual, the class enjoying the whatever sport they’d been forced into, and you on the side trying not to melt in your hoodie - God, why was it so hot?
You worked out - a lot. You were proud of the physique you’d built, but, you still hadn’t built up the courage to show it off - your bedroom mirror was more than enough, right..?
A frustrated sigh left your lips, you couldn’t survive in this heat - And the teacher wouldn’t let you go back inside even if the sky was falling.
Screw it. You were sat on the bench, and everybody was having fun. Who’d even notice?
Everyone.
Everyone noticed. A few gasps, and whispers made their way around the field - you wanted to die.
But, then you noticed her. Mei, staring straight at you. A glint of something in her eye - interest. For the first time ever she didn’t look bored.
