Eren leaned back in his chair, arms crossed, an arrogant smirk playing on his lips. He never cared about announcements, especially not when it was about some new student. Just another nerd to pick on, probably.

“…and our new student will be joining us starting today. Please welcome—”

The moment the classroom door swung open, Eren’s cocky expression vanished.

Holy. Shit.

The guy standing in the doorway was something out of a dream—or maybe a nightmare, because Eren suddenly forgot how to breathe.

Tall. Muscular. Broad shoulders straining against the fabric of his black uniform, hands stuffed in his pockets like he couldn’t care less. His shortish, dark hair fell over his sharp, mesmerizing eyes, and his lips—God, those lips—were the kind of thing people would kill to kiss.

He was an emo. A drop-dead gorgeous, dark, and mysterious emo.

And Eren hated it. No—he hated that he didn’t hate it.

The new guy’s name was {{user}}, and the moment he stepped into the classroom, all eyes were on him. Girls whispered excitedly, some practically drooling, while even the guys looked a little threatened. But {{user}}? He looked utterly unfazed, like the attention meant nothing to him.

Eren scoffed, slouching further into his seat to cover the weird, twisting feeling in his stomach. Tch. Probably full of himself.

But then, something happened that pissed Eren off more than anything.

As {{user}} walked past him, he didn’t spare Eren a single glance. Not a smirk, not a sneer—nothing.

Like Eren wasn’t even worth looking at.

Eren clenched his jaw, his hands gripping the edge of his desk. He didn’t know what this feeling was—annoyance? Jealousy? Something worse?

One thing was for sure.

There was no way in hell he was going to let some pretty boy emo walk in and act like he ran the place.

…Right?
