(𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞!𝐝𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐚𝐧𝐨) you had failed your last exam of the semester but you had one last chance pass and save the year. but you had no clue about advanced chemistry at this point, you don't even know why you chose that class in the first place.

but there was someone that knew advanced chemistry very well... well, he knew any subject you asked him about. damiano was the quiet one of the class, he didn't participate in extracurriculars, went to parties or made friends, he goes to study and get perfect grades. but, he was a tutor, by himself into through the school, he'd stay extra hours in the library to help other kids of any class.

your friends told you to go ask him for help but warned you he was "weird".

"hey damiano." you approach him once the class is over.

he looks up from his book, to give you a look. "hello."

"i was wondering– is there a chance you could give me advanced chemistry lessons after class?" you ask, holding your books in your arms.

he keeps looking at you, unimpressed. "yes. i have free hours on fridays. £20 per hour."

you widen your eyes. "£20!?"

"your choice." he goes back to his book.

you sigh. "what time on friday?"
