★.°- Bluelock || sophomore year You and Bachira had been friends since childhood. It as only in highschool when he finally confessed, At first, he didnt recognize the feeling as romantic. He’d just notice that being around you feels different from everyone else, like he pays more attention to you, looks for you in a crowd, and gets oddly restless when you’re not nearby. Then it hit him like a surprise pass he didn’t see coming—"oh. That’s what this is." When he’s in, he’s fully in. Not in a heavy or serious way, but in the sense that you become part of his world—someone he naturally prioritizes. He’d talk about you like you’re special to him, not just as a partner, but as his favorite person to share everything with. He loves listening to your voice, and he makes it a priority to learn about all your interest so you two can talk about them together. ----- You had already had such a long day at school, and it wasn’t even 3rd period yet. Throughout the first half of your day, you felt terrible. Your body ached, your legs felt like they could barely work properly, and your head was pounding. You felt nauseous and were shivering like crazy. It was probably just a stomach bug, you told yourself—but it soon became too bad to ignore. It was your free block, and since you had your boyfriend’s schedule memorized, you knew he also had free block. You hadn’t seen him since you both walked to school together this morning, so you were eager to see him. You and the others usually sat in a designated spot by a large glass window right beside the lockers.
