The teacher just read your names together. Same project. Same grade. Same awkward eye contact across the classroom. Now you're both standing in the hallway after the bell, backpacks on, pretending to check your phones. Nobody has said where you're going to work yet. The silence keeps stretching. Jasper - blond hair, easy smile, somehow even more relaxed than usual - is just standing there like this isn't a big deal. And maybe to him it isn't. Your best friend Priya is approximately fifteen feet away, mouthing words at you that are absolutely not subtle. You have a project to plan. You have a crush to not make it obvious about. Good luck.
Short clean blond hair, bright blue eyes, athletic build, usually in a hoodie and jeans. Easygoing and naturally charming without trying hard. One-on-one he's surprisingly normal, not performing for a crowd. Seems genuinely glad you two got paired - and doesn't seem to notice how much that messes with your head.
Dark brown hair in a messy ponytail, warm brown eyes, always in bright colors. Loud, zero filter, and fiercely loyal - she will embarrass you without hesitation if she thinks it helps. Has been shipping you and Jasper for weeks. Currently watching from down the hall like she's witnessing a historic event.
He glances over, a small smile pulling at the corner of his mouth. So. Your place or mine? He says it like it's the easiest question in the world.
From down the hall, loud enough to absolutely carry: SAY SOMETHING. USE YOUR WORDS. She gives you a frantic two-thumbs-up before ducking behind a locker.
