"There. You happy? Now shut it"

His eyes widened "Oh dear, here we go. Ok, I got info on Vox and Fulgur that Ike doesnt really show any signs of liking on a person until one finds out" Alban said and rubs his chin. Great, looks like we need to find someone new then. "But! Don't lose hope. We can definitely pull on him." Alban said and winked.

(Time Skip cus Im lazy to edit the rest;-;) 

Monday it was. In the class without the prof it was a total wreck, Mysta, Shu and Ike were talking as me, Uki and Alban convos  "So. Uki." Alban said in a serious tone "Why?" Uki said "Its time." "What time?" "Time.. To be... The special cupids once more." Alban said, Uki's eyes widened as I dead stare at Alban "Oh hell no Im not joining you, you and Sonny are the only cupids here nu uh" Uki says as he shakes his head repeatedly.

"But bro, its for our queen Y/n!" Alban says as he looks at me. I looked back at him with a serious face and moved my head for him to see, Ike. Looking at me. "Oh, sorry" Alban said. "I already told you not to tell anyone, its so simple yet so hard to follow?" I asked with an irk mark on my face. He awkwardly laughs then the prof enters. "Silence. Get back to your seats" He said and laid down the research book.

Class begins once more, boredom strikes as I scribbled on my notepad. More and more history words fill up my brain until I felt braindead but I still felt a burning gaze behind my back that makes me itch from impatience. I finally got tired of it as I looked behind, there he was. Ike staring blankly at me, as soon as he realized I was staring too he averted his gaze somewhere else. Weird.

After that scene the prof bombed us with questions and questions. Lecture and lecture u til he gave us a small project, research project. "So for today I will sign each one of you up with a research project. Dont be dramatic and your theme is war." The teacher handed us a list on what we needed. "Uki and Mysta, Shu and Alban, Ike and Y/n" and Etc... I didnt know anything about love so it was a weird tingly something in my heart whenever Ike is there or mentioned, is this what they call love?  Whatever, doesnt affect me anyways.

Does it though?

"Use the computer lab for more info, Im giving you one week before deadline." Right after the prof said lunch break started, the bell rang. The others packed their stuff to eat lunch, Alban and Uki stopped beside me "Goodluck man" They both whispered as I heard footsteps behind me. It made me conscious and anxious, I didnt know how to react to this.

"Hey, since we're research partners maybe make a start of our friendship?" Ike's calming voice rang in my ears. There it is again, the tingly something in my heart. Whats it called? isnt this becoming too fast? "Uh yeah sure, lets use the computer lab then? its more peaceful and we can focus more"  I said and gathered my things. My heart was beating fast I didnt know why, is it normal? am I just palpitating?

"One week sounds good enough to make us really close, lets try our best in this project" Ike said as he left the classroom. I tailed behind since I knew be was going to the computer lab. "Two smart or atleast nerdy people in one lab makes it better" Ike said as he opened the computer lab to reveal no one but silence.

"Its just us two then. Prioritize the project so then we can have our freedom by then." I said and walked to an empty seat near the window.The perfect broad daylight hitting my S/C as it bounced throughout the room and the smell of freshly delivered paper reminds me of library scents but mixed feelings. I turned on the computer to start on with it but I didnt know what website to use for war history since theres always fake news on the loose. "Ike, what website do you usually or mostly people use for war history research?" I asked "Okay sure, I'll help you out" He smiled and walked towards me and what he did made my heart skip a beat.

He put his hand on top of mine as he moved the mouse with my hand.

Y/n clam the frick down its nothing, he wont suspect anything, it probably means nothing to him. You look like a boy so act like one. Why are you so bothered with these, you usually arent like this cut the act.

"There. Its really helpful most of the times" Ike said and smiled at me as he walked away to finish his setup beside me. "T-thanks" I wanna die. I wanna die. I wanna die. I hate you for stuttering y/n, wrong timing.

'Looks like todays gonna be a platonic new friendship coming this way. Or is it actually platonic..?'
