Note: This is my first time ever writing, so please be nice!🖤✨️

Xavier

-The guy who slept in the back of class all the time yet still got excellent grades, so the teachers didn't care.

-Wore a jersey mostly since they were warm and cozy. Whenever he wore a blazer, he always had his white hoodie under it.

-Forever had a bedhead, but he looked cute with it. (Everyone also thought that was how his hair naturally looked since it was somehow still neat)

-Was definitely on the chess team and did athletics for a sport. He also has a certain interest in fencing.

-Barely spoke to anyone and minded his own business.

-Weird he somehow ended up becoming acquainted with you since he practically lived by "EAT. SLEEP. GAME. REPEAT" and was perfectly fine with that and no one else. (Except for maybe Jeremiah, who was his childhood friend?...acquaintance? He's not sure either)

-It all started when you sat next to him in class. You gave up one of the front seats for your friend with bad eyesight and took something at the back since it was full, which ended up being right next to him. It wasn't bad, to say the least. The silence that followed after you nodded each other a greeting was peaceful. You never cared much for attention or talking to people unless necessary... or you were close enough to info dump, so this was nice.

-He acknowledged your existence and thought you were cool.... then he ended up unintentionally keeping track of your mannerisms, from the way you brushed back your hair to the sounds of doodling on your notebook (which may have lulled him to sleep a few times). He was intrigued and kept watching, masking it with his folded hands on the desk, or quickly shutting his eyelids whenever you felt his gaze and turned towards him.

-Only managed to properly talk to each other once you two got assigned for a paired project, then learned that you two have a common interest in video games. Which led to game exchanges and eventual online matches as a team.

Zayne

-Quiet nerd who sat up front and never had time for BS or anything really.

-People were secretly scared of his icy nature.

-Every girl was after him because he was cool and... face card never declined. He absolutely hated the attention.

-Always in a blazer, no matter the temperature and his hair was perfectly neat all the time.

-Did Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Pure Math and Accounting - everyone's worst nightmare.

-You ended up sitting next to him up front because the teacher thought you were talking to your friend, so she just moved you next to him as if you were a delinquent who could be changed. You didn't argue since there'd be no point to, so you just accepted it and moved your stuff to the desk next to him. After a nodded greeting, you just sat down, checking your notes whilst waiting for lunchbreak.

-He didn't think much of you other than that you were attractive and noisy according to teacher, so he didn't bother.... was really surprised when he saw you open up your notes to find it incredibly neat and detailed.

-You two don't end up interacting much, even though you really would like to. It's just that you couldn't find an opening.

-One day, you did end up finding it - he was chomping on a literal bar of chocolate before class could start. To say you weren't taken aback would be an absolute lie. He whips his head back at your shaky form when he hears suppressed giggles to which you quickly recovered and apologized, saying that it was cute. His ears got red.... visibly red. He never ate chocolate around you again until you offered him some of your favorite, and you ended up bonding on sweets.

-Warms up to you and become friends(?), walks you to classes discussing schoolwork with you and branching off into study sessions.

-As he got comfortable with you and got to know you better, he realized that your slight upbeat energy is really nice, so he kept you around.

Rafayel

-Artist at the back of class who'd rather be anywhere but at school but goes since well... you have to.

-Always sketching when not actually putting effort into notes - which needs color and hand lettered headings.

-Had the best hair and customized uniform to his taste with pins and so on.

-Hated when anyone stared for too long at his sketchbook.

-Definitely took Technical Drawing and got bored but still kept doing it because he could draw. His favorite was English due to the creative and literary aspects.

-Excellent swimmer but never did it as a sport, preferred wandering instead.

-Has everyone's attention on him. Girls, guys, others... you name it, but he hated interacting with people too much - he is a social recluse after all.

-Likewise you didn't like attention at the front of the class so you sat in the back, in front of him and next to the window. You were getting stuff from your bag behind you, and then you noticed him sketching. As if in a trance, you rested your head on the back of your chair and continued watching the pencil strokes grazing against the paper. Snapping back to reality with a flick to the forehead from the artist, he looked rather displeased, so you apologized and complimented his technique before turning back around.

-Taken aback, he didn't expect you to know anything about art and thought you were going to bat your eyelashes at him and attempt to win his attention over by half-heartedly asking to see more of his sketchbook. Hesitantly, he taps on your shoulder, asking if you drew as well, to which you gave a soft nod. He considers getting your number and just asks to see your work at break instead.

-Never left your side ever since, not that you minded or anything. He was a good friend who was always there for you. You would never ask for anything else.

-On the other hand.... He. Was. Fucked. After the little while, you two had become friends, he couldn't help but find you as his muse (he had a crush on you but would never admit that)

Sylus

-"Bad boy" loner

-Everyone thought he was a delinquent because of his ear piercings and death glare. Not to mention the way his attire was: unbuttoned shirt, loose tie, random jacket, and messy hair.

-Did MMA out of school. In school, he didn't get along with many and preferred being on his own.

-Did the business course and added physics as an extra subject.

-Was put next to you because the teacher thought he'd absorb your goodness and become a good kid.

-You weren't intimidated by him. In fact, you could match his glare. Band for band? No. Glare for glare.

-There was a time in which he took your ruler to smack someone with.... you shot him a nasty glare, and he put it back quietly and apologized.... maybe the teacher was right about the good vibes?

-there were mostly short interactions between you two. He grew closer once he noticed the way other boys in class treated you. It wasn't the absolute worst thing, but he could tell you were ticked off, so he stood by as a safety net. Your guard dog. He never understood them for their actions since you were decent according to his standards.

-There was a shift after a while. People avoided you, which made little sense until sylus plopped down next to you, ah there's was your answer. You didn't mind, he was nice and pretty and tall- great, now you have a little crush.

-He could sense something was off about you. You were shy and never made eye contact with him. Oh? He sees it now.... and uses it to his full advantage. He can't tell when you're blushing despite hiding it well, but not well enough. He's officially your worst nightmare now with all the teasing. Good luck with that hun!

Caleb

-Popular kid who knows everyone to the point it's annoying.

-Played either soccer or basketball and did the thing where he lifted the front of his shirt to wipe the sweat off his face and flashed his abs, which made girls faint literally.

-Did similar subjects as Zayne except he swapped out accounting for Engineering, Graphics and Design.

-Was every teacher's favorite student. So neat and respectful, and he was perfect, if only they had another student like that. Y/n? Oh... yeah no

-Always with Gideon, occasionally meeting up with Zayne. Otherwise, he pesters you whilst your friend has heart eyes, and you aren't impressed in the slightest. He's too bright to the point that your eyelids might be burning off. You don't have the energy for this. You just want a nap.

-You never got the hype. His popularity pissed you off, not in a jealous way. It all just gave you a massive headache when you heard girls squealing. Very overstimulating when they cornered his table and knocked your stuff over whilst invading your space. Yes, you sat next to him in the middle of the class, sadly, and are now cornered.

-poking him on the side, you nonchalantly tell him to tell his fangirls to leave and then plop your head down due to your massive migraine. His expression turns from a sweatdrop to slight concern when he clears the area and asks if you're okay. You can't even hate your academic rival. He's too nice.... and cute... maybe you do get the hype... slightly.

-Irrespective of rivalry, you two hold a certain respect for each other. Maybe it's a little more than respect. You push each other to do your best and end up tying most of the time. Maybe you two are more in sync than you thought.
