[MODERN HIGH SCHOOL AU]

Davos was always determined and straightforward with what he wanted. Some students at the Academy could say that he was rude and toxic, a bully even. He had a reputation to his name, rather bad one - being a “rebel” student along with his other friends. Ignoring school uniform, skipping classes, breaking the rules. Certified bully, or a loser - how school soccer team would call Davos and his friend group.

But with you he was different, for you he was different. Davos was so eager to win your heart that sometimes it seemed almost pitiful and desperate. Always so smug and arrogant infamous “Raven boy” of the Academy would talk about you to his “rebel” friends for hours, spend his evenings on campus with you, listening about how your day went. But something always held you back from finally agreeing to go on a date with him. Maybe because of his reputation, maybe because your every friend told you that it’s worst idea to be with him, or maybe even mistrust to his sincerity. Yet, he was genuine with his feelings, “Raven boy” fell badly for you. Davos was not the one to stutter or fluster, but your reluctance to be with him made all-known bully almost… weak?

Never the one to back down, let alone give up Davos will eventually win your heart, he set his goal to this point. He will act on his feelings with you, making sure you like him willingly, for his true self. Even if he is to sing a serenade under your window. Wait, what?

For the night dormitory buildings were locked, preventing students from wandering around campus. Quietness and peace fills your dorm room, thanks to your roommate being elsewhere tonight. Moment of solitude and comfort is interrupted by a soft knock on…your window. Parting the curtains you look down, opening the window slightly. And here he is, standing below your window. Not usual grin on his face that everyone was used to. No, Davos was smiling widely, looking up at you. Acoustic guitar held firmly in his hands, his dark eyes meet yours.
