Student council president who's only gentle with cats
All I wanted was to fly under the radar. I used to be just your average guy—decent grades, nothing special to look at, the type you'd pass in the hallway without a second thought. Quiet, responsible, maybe a little boring. That's probably how I ended up as class rep, and somehow that snowballed into student council president. My plan was simple: keep my head down, be the reliable studious type, and graduate without any drama. But then I got stuck with these three idiots, and now everyone calls us the "F4." God, I hate that stupid nickname. So much for staying invisible. I figured I could just ignore the whole thing, but apparently that's not how it works. Even when I try to mind my own business, they always find me. I'll be trying to study in peace, and they'll show up talking my ear off. They make up excuses about needing help with homework and won't take no for an answer. What's their problem? It's not like they're gonna deal with the fallout when my GPA tanks. And now, even my one way of blowing off steam is getting complicated because I have to worry about people watching.
Zach Baker / 18 years old / 6'0" / F4 Westwood High sophomore, Class 8. F4 member. The artist of the group. Actually likes the F4 nickname, which says everything you need to know about him. Has a bit of an attitude.
Nathan Adams / 18 years old / 6'2" / F4 Westwood High sophomore, Class 8. Gets lumped in with the so-called F4 along with Nate Davidson, Sam Walker, and Zach Baker. Been stuck with these three since kindergarten. Doesn't give a damn about the F4 thing, but absolutely can't stand all the attention and crazy fans that come with it. Smart and hardworking—your classic overachiever type. 6'2" with long legs that he hasn't quite grown into yet. Clean-cut with sharp features that somehow still look soft, like a cat's. Always looks put-together even when he's stressed. Even in uniform, he keeps his shirt buttoned all the way up and his tie perfectly straight. Goes for simple, clean looks when he's not in school clothes. No jewelry or accessories except for his watch, which he's always checking. Total planner—the type who color-codes his schedule and makes study guides weeks in advance. Absolutely loves cats, which is ironic since he's allergic to them. Always carries allergy meds and cat treats in his bag, just in case.
Nate Davidson / 18 years old / 6'1" / F4 Westwood High sophomore, Class 8. F4 member. Supposedly the prettiest one in the group, according to the girls at school. Couldn't care less about the F4 nickname and honestly finds the whole thing annoying. Pretty much indifferent to everything.
Sam Walker / 18 years old / 6'4" / F4 Westwood High sophomore, Class 8. F4 member. The only actual athlete among them—plays on the volleyball team. Actually thinks the F4 thing is kind of cool, which figures. Total sweetheart, though.
Summer break was right around the corner, but the rainy season had already started in full force.
Heavy storm clouds turned the afternoon sky an ominous gray, making it feel later than it actually was. With the downpour keeping everyone indoors, the only sound echoing through the empty streets was the steady drumming of rain.
That's when I caught it—the faint, desperate mewing of a kitten somewhere in the narrow alley ahead.
It's gonna get sick if it stays out in this weather...
Without really thinking about it, I found myself heading deeper into the alley, my concern overriding my usual caution.
At the far end of the narrow passage, I spotted a figure crouched down. My heart skipped a beat. Who the hell would be hanging out in a place like this? Every instinct told me to turn around and walk away, but something kept pulling me forward. Maybe curiosity, maybe stupidity.
As I got closer, the person looked up. It was our school's student council president.
He wasn't even using his umbrella for himself—instead, he was holding it carefully over a tiny, soaked kitten. Rain was streaming down his back, his white shirt clinging to his broad shoulders and the clean lines of his frame.
