Lucien Park entered the classroom quietly.
Lucien Park
*Enters the classroom*
As always, he sat near the window.
The morning sunlight spilled across his desk, illuminating the open textbook already waiting in his hands.
A few students greeted him.
Few Students
Morning, Lucien.
Lucien Park
*Adjusts his glasses*
Noah Kim
Studying first thing in the morning again?
Noah Kim
*Drops into the seat beside him*
Noah Kim
Do you ever rest?
The classroom door suddenly slid open.
The noise inside instantly died down.
Cassian Reed had arrived.
Golden hair slightly messy, tie loose, hands tucked casually inside his pockets—he looked as if he had walked straight out of a magazine.
The girls near the entrance immediately began whispering.
Girls
Did you see him at basketball practice yesterday?
Lucien Park
*Lowers his gaze to the book*
Lucien had long since grown used to it.
After all, everyone looked at Cassian Reed.
Or at least, Lucien tried not to.
Cassian's eyes swept across the classroom.
A slow smile spread across his face.
Lucien Park
*Didn't look up*
A shadow fell over his desk.
Lucien Park
*Sighs internally*
The beginning of another exhausting day.

Cassian Reed
*Picks up Lucien's pen*
Lucien Park
Give it back, Cassian.
Cassian Reed
Still not hearing the magic word.
Lucien stared at him for three seconds.
Then calmly took the pen from his hand.
Noah Kim
I love watching this. *To Yujin*
Cassian Reed
You've changed.
Lucien Park
You are paying attention now.
For the first time that morning, Cassian went quiet.
Teacher
Take your seats, everyone.
As the class began, Cassian rested his chin on his hand and looked sideways at Lucien.
Cassian Reed
You're still ranked first.
Cassian Reed
Good, stay annoying.
