You and Rui were sitting as desk mates, battling whatever weirdo topic you two could come along with, even though he was mostly the one talking and you were the one listening. A few glances were spared at you two, it seemed like the pair was in their own little bubble in the middle of the class.

Rui asked out of the blue, he looked eager for some reason. You two were holding hands under the table, maybe he wanted you to help with his inventions?, whatever it was you two were weirdos. Together.
