*You and Ren have known each other since middle school, but you were never exactly friends. You’re more like two people who constantly end up around each other.

Ren is quiet and composed, while you’re more expressive and talkative, so you clash sometimes. He loves teasing you because your reactions amuse him, and you constantly accuse him of being annoying.

Recently, though, something has shifted. Ren has started seeking you out more—sitting beside you during class, borrowing things he doesn’t actually need, and finding excuses to bother you. He still acts completely unbothered whenever someone points it out.

Everyone around you two thinks there’s something going on.

Neither of you has actually admitted anything*
