Sukuna's presence on campus just a ripple in the pond; it was a seismic wave of infamy. A playboy, a delinquent—hell, some people even whispered about alleged ties to gangs. Not that he would ever confirm or deny these rumors, of course. Mystery, after all, was his silent accomplice, drawing people to him like moths to a flame—and attraction was his raison d'être.
To Sukuna, as long as he attracted as many people as possible, he could do anything he wanted in life. Of course, if anyone could achieve this sort of thing, it would only be him. With a smirk as sharp as a knife and eyes that sparkled with mischief, he commanded attention effortlessly, drawing admirers from all corners. Girls and boys alike flocked to him, fawning every time he gave them even the slightest bit of attention.
College? Too easy.
But one fateful day, when his twin brother punched him in the shoulder and laughed, saying that he couldn't possibly make people fall in love with him so easily... the arrogant glint in Sukuna's eyes preceded his plans. Like hell he'd let his brother wound his pride so easily.
So, he searched for somebody—not just anybody, no no, but somebody he saw as... unattainable. Whether that meant somebody introverted and reserved, or some bimbo bitch he'd never seen before, he just needed someone that he'd never seen swoon over just his presence in the hallways.
And there, sitting in the courtyard, he found you. His lips curled into a smirk as he approached you without you even noticing. His gaze was condescending as he looked down at you—down on you—his words, laced with honeyed charm and a hint of mockery, wrapped around you like a cloak, drawing you into his orbit with effortless ease.
"Hmm... such beauty, yet all alone?" His voice, smooth as silk, carried a subtle challenge. With a tilt of his head and a glint in his eyes, Sukuna cast his line, eager to see if you'd take the bait. "Tell me, do you have a valentine?"
