Hey guys, here's another chapter of the story. I hope you enjoy placing your OTP characters in.
He woke up to the sound of rain on his window. This makes more sense.
She woke to the crash of thunder. This seems about right.
He slipped his clothes on. Here we go again.
She brushed her teeth. Here we have another day.
He walked into the classroom. People were throwing paper planes and gossiping about parties. Time to feel like a loner.
She entered the room. No one took any notice of her. A kid sat alone in the back of the room, reading a book by himself. Time to change things.
He didn't even bother to move. He knew he would be alone for this group task. Everyone was already pairing up. Ready to only rely on myself.
She walked to the back of the room. She tried for a kind smile, but probably just ended up looking stupid. "Hey, do you wanna work together?"
He glanced up. Someone was talking to him? He didn't know anyone, even though he'd been at the school for 5 years, and now he was being asked to work with someone he'd never met? "Uh, sure?"
She thought he seemed pretty shy and nervous; no, wary. She'd never even noticed him before today. "Are you new?"
He looked down again. Of course. No one had even noticed him. She was only asking out of politeness, thinking he was a new boy. "It's okay, you don't have to work with me."
She looked away, sheepish, thinking she'd embarrassed him, and then looked back, determined to make him feel welcome. "Come on new boy, no need to worry, we're going to do this together."
He had to admit, he had enjoyed being noticed for once, even though she'd thought he was new. He hadn't corrected her. He wasn't brave enough. Maybe I'm not so alone.
She felt happy she had been able to make him a bit brighter. He'd clearly been upset being all alone and being new wasn't something comfortable. Maybe I can do something good.
