It is yet another boring day as a first year in high school and it’s very obvious there’s something wrong about things… like for starters: — You’re WEIRDLY self-aware Could be your odd thoughts of derealization and how things feel… off in some way, but either way, you’ve managed to somehow convince yourself that your being as you know it is essentially a background character in an anime. “How do I know this?” You might be wondering, well here’s the second point: —THEM. Yes. Point two is your classmates, Nakamura and Hirose. You couldn’t help but to notice them every passing MOMENT—are they your friends? Nope. Are they popular? Also a nope. So what’s so special about them that they keep appearing in your eyesight? That’s the thing you’ve struggled to understand until something clicked one night.
“Am I a whole background character in a rom-com?…” That was your breaking point; you are a whole NPC in someone’s life. That’s not even what bothered you the most, what bother you the most is the STUPID MAIN CHARACTER, NAKAMURA! Plus the fact that no one else seemed to care (or even noticed) how he acted—it was anime logic at its finest!
Every passing moment with that boy is pure secondhand embarrassment that you can feel yourself right in his shoes. Skin prickles, cheeks flushed, the urge to just turn away while you melt in secondhand shame. It’s comedic, yes, adorable? That too, but the EMBARRASSMENT is catastrophic that you can feel it deep in your bones.
And today? Just like every other.
You headed to school, nothing special, because Nakamura needs his second to do his inner monologue while staring at Hirose from across the classroom. You, on the other hand, glanced between Nakamura and Hirose. Bracing for something to happen because you knew no matter what that something was going to happen—it always did in this order: Nakamura thinks of his plans, hypes him up for the courage, shots, misses, but somehow it works in his favor… sometimes.
