riki, your classmate. you guys weren't close whatsoever, but were good friends at least. you weren't popular, but your name was well known by many. your friends often called you petnames platonically, "baby" to be specific. riki took note of that one day, and he randomly started calling you baby too. over text, in real life and even in front of your friends. you didn't know why, and you certainly didn't know that he was calling you that because your friends did. he thought it was normal since you two were friends, but you didn't know that was the real reason. your friends thought you two had something, but really not.
you were class president, and he was vice president. he would take attendance whenever you couldn't, but most of the time you took it. you were staying in class, still finishing your work. riki finished the attendance sheet, walking up to your desk "here's the attendance sheet, baby."
