Haruto

I sat on the bench with her as she smoked.

I didnt know she smoked , i hated the smell of cigarettes , i hated people who smoked. But why did i feel like that when i saw her smoke?

And what the hell got into me to follow her here? And why the heck was i not leaving?. I didnt know but i knew i didnt want to go or i just wanted to stay.

I liked it beside her. Especially when we were alone , she seemed kinder and more friendly when we were together and she didnt have a constant blank face like in class.

I was sitting beside her , my chest was fluttering , her hand between us.

I had to have alot of self control to not put my hand on hers while it was afew cm away.

I didnt realize i was staring at it before i found a tatoo on her hand.

I grabbed it in my hand examining it.

She flinched as i touched her hand.

"Isn't it iligal to have a tatoo?" I asked curiously not judgementaly.

She didnt reply right away

"It's not a tatoo" she answered.

"Ohhh" i chimmed still holding her hand , i couldnt let it down as i couldnt leave before.

"Its beautiful" i confessed honestly.

It was a little doodle of an incomplete heart on the top on her wrist

Half a cm.

"Does it has a special meaning?" I was curious when i was the type who didnt care much about anything.

And i wasnt the talkative but i couldnt find it in me to shut up in her presence.

"Its from a book i like"

"You read books?" I asked another question.

"Sometimes"

"Which books?"

"Nothing specific"

"What is this tatoo from?" Even though she said it wasnt tatoo.

She seemed reluctant to reply but i kept staring at it waiting for her reply that she had to answer.

"It ends with us" she replied shortly. I had to try to bring everything out of her one by one.

"What is it about?" I asked.

"I dont know"

"You just said its a book you like" i explained as a matter of fact.

She glared at me but didn't reply.

"I guess i will have to read it myself " i said smiling.

I dont know why i smiled when i was getting glared at and ignored but i couldnt ignore the fact that she didnt remove my hand from hers when she had every reason to.

Third person pov

The next class has started much before but they just ignored it so now they were forced to stay till next class.

They were silent for a long time.
None of them were much of a talker but her silence had motivated haruto to talk more than he would ever do.

"The sky looks nice" he relaxedly said as he stared up in the sky before looking at her. She was already staring at the sky herself so she just nodded.

Haruto didnt go back to staring at the sky but was inspecting her face.

He started from her forehead to her brow,eye,nose and mouth.

He knew he had a crush on her , he liked her company , her face ,her personality also it wasnt the nicest but he like it the way it was. He liked her and she didnt seem to hate him since he was the one she interacted with the most in class and she was letting him stay with her when she could have asked him to leave.

Not that she owned the place but he wouldn't have been able to say no.

After a long time she stopped looking out and sat straight , flipping her skirt around she took a cigarette out for her. Then she found him staring so she took another one out and offered him one.

He was sure he was red right now cause his ear were feeling hot as he shook his head rapidly.

"I don't smoke" he exclaimed

"Okay" she mumbled before putting it back and fixing her skirt.

Today was a prove that haruto was not quite quiet since he couldn't stop questioning everything.

"Since when did you start smoking?" He was curious. They weren't old enough for that, he would have never imagined him or anyone near him to smoke at this age.

"I smoked first at last year of middle school but i wasnt a smoker till last year " she explained rather prolonged compared to her other replies.

"Why do you smoke?"

" I like the taste and smell of it"

He scrunched his nose " how would anyone like the smoke of cigarettes?" He was confused.

"Then why are you here if you cant stand it?" She looked at him after a long while one eyebrow up , looking amused.

"Because you are here" he replied like that would explain anything.

"Yeah i am here " she said while rolling her eyes "smoking" she continued with a chuckle.

She took a breath in , cherishing it before throwing the newly heated cigarette on the floor beside her foot and stepping on it.

He looked confused when she looked back at him so she just shrugged her shoulder.

"You dont like it" she explained before staring infront.

That brought a small smile on his face.

She cares about what i like

When it was time to go back to class , haruto cursed himself as he remembered that he was going to smell like cigarette now and his friends knew that she and him were not in class together and he would never hear the end of it.

They thought he feared her , they thought he was too afraid to ask for partner change. They didnt know he liked her.

And they would kill him of they knew

But that didnt matter cause he knew there was something there is some kind of attraction between the two of them and he wanted to bring the best out of it
