You sit on the chair provided for you. The classroom is rather quiet, despite the presence of almost all students. Everyone is engrossed in books and doesn't care about their surrounding. Maybe they don't even notice you entering the class.

"Huh..." You sigh helplessly.

Being in a completely foreign school is hard enough, but having to sit in a classroom alone with no acquaintance at all is much harder. The other four are third year students, so they are placed in different class from you. And here you are, alone, being ignored by your new classmates.

Everything is so different. The scenery, the feels, and the students' attitude. No wonder Suna High is such an excellent school compared to Konoha.

"Oh, he's here!"

Suddenly, a girl shrieks happily. You immediately shift your gaze to her.

He? Who?

And then, you see a familiar guy steps into the class, wearing the feelingless expression that you've seen before. All the students raise up from their chairs.

"Good morning, pres!"

They bow, politely, and in sync to boost.

Stuttered, you clumsily get up from your chair and also bow at him.

"Morning. You may continue what you were doing." He declares, and the others immediately get back to their seat.

Wh-what a discipline...

"Are you alright, (last name)-san?"

The red-haired male greets you as you stand dumbfounded in front of him.

"Y-yeah... Sorry, i am just unused to this." You say, as you settle down onto the chair.

Gaara smiled at you.

"It's okay."

He then takes a seat beside you.

You become confused.

"Wait, you are in this class?"

He looks at you quizzically.

"Yes, why?"

"N-nothing. I'm just kinda relieved that at least i have someone that i know in here."

Your gaze is fixed to the floor as you talk.

"Well, i planned it. I figured that you're going to be uncomfortable alone, so i put you in the same class as mine. That way, i can keep you close by my side."

You immediately turn your head at him due to shock. But he doesn't put on any expression at all.

'Don't tell me that he just said that without thinking.' Your heart whispers.

Gaara then tilts his head towards you.

"Is there any problem?"

The same feelingless expression again.

You quickly avert your gaze.

"N-nothing."

'Shit! This guy just has no sensitivity at all, isn't it? Saying things like that! Now my heart is accelerating again!'

Not long after that, the class begins.

You take a sneak peek at his profile from the side.

He has a fair skin that higlights his beautiful green pupils. Even though his eyebrows are basically invinsible, he actually has a very fascinating eyes. His spiky auburn hair also shows unusuality, as we rarely see someone with that hair colour. In summary, he is very handsome.

Well, not as handsome as that duck-butt, but at least he got the look.

He seems felingless all the time, but also polite. The way he talk and the way he look are exremely courteous. Ironically, he doesn't look cold. And he isn't either.

'This guy is just... Weird.'

The thought cross your mind.

Suddenly, gaara's pupils move to your direction. Surprised, you quickly look somewhere else.

'Shit! Does he notice me staring at him?! And why the hell is my heart beating so fast, damn it!'

You slowly look towards him again, but his attention is already back to the teacher. You sigh, relieved.

For the next 30 minutes, you force yourself to focus in the class.
