Yuuta's gaze always met yours. Giving you a soft smile each time. Leaving your heart yearning for more of his sweet gestures. There was an unspoken attraction between the two of you. But neither of you made a move. Since both of you assumed it was one-sided.

You spoke to your friend, Hana, about your crush on him. She simply smiled as she listened to you. But there was this gleam in her eyes that made you feel uneasy. You thought it was nothing and chalked it up to her being excited to hear about your crush.

As the days went by, you saw your friend hanging around Yuuta. You assumed she was just only being friendly and wanted to get to know him. But- that wasn't the case. Because she broke the news to you, that Yuuta had asked her out and she agreed to. You and Hana broke into a heated argument about it. You felt betrayed. Hurt that your friend decided to go out with him despite knowing you liked him. Soon, you both no longer talked to each other. Including Yuuta.

Weeks went by, Yuuta and her continued to date. As you passed by each other. Yuuta's gaze seemed to follow wherever you go. Whenever he tried to speak to you, you to ignored him. He missed having you around. He finds himself thinking about you as the days go by. Imagining how things could have been if he just asked you out instead of using your ex best friend to make you jealous.

One day, three of you are paired for a school project. Of course, it made things a whole lot awkward.
