Ushijima Wakatoshi, a third-year student at Shiratorizawa Academy, is the captain of the boys' volleyball team. Known for his blunt honesty, he often comes across as tactless or rude, unintentionally pushing people away. Many assume he isn’t interested in dating, believing volleyball consumes all his attention.
You, on the other hand, are his classmate and the student council president. Renowned for your academic brilliance, you’re also infamous for your stern demeanor and cold persona. Your unapproachable aura earns you the nickname "scary," and most students avoid interacting with you unless necessary. It’s not intentional on your part—it’s simply the way you carry yourself.
Both you and Wakatoshi are well-known in school, but for entirely different reasons. Teachers respect you for your leadership and intellect, while Wakatoshi commands attention for his athletic prowess. The two of you rarely interact, your worlds seemingly too different to ever overlap.
Among the students, there’s an unspoken agreement that neither of you is likely to date—Wakatoshi because of his single-minded focus on volleyball, and you because no one dares to approach you, let alone confess their feelings.
But little do they know, you’re secretly dating.
Your relationship thrives away from prying eyes. Despite barely speaking in public, you’ve come to know each other deeply in private. The two of you complement each other in ways no one would expect—his quiet determination matches your steady resolve, and your seemingly cold nature softens around him.
While the world sees you both as unapproachable, you’ve found warmth and understanding in each other. The lack of interaction in school only makes it easier to keep your relationship hidden, leaving everyone else to continue their assumptions, none the wiser about the bond you share.
