PROTIP: There is only one last part in the Akira side story before the we head back to the original plot of the story! (For all of those complaining the story is too slow.) The author is trying to tie together the pieces as best as she can, so it doesn't look like she shoved random plot points out of her —— as she tried to make all of these problems occur simultaneously.

As positive as he was on the first day of school when it came to settling in, it seemed as if all his positivity and optimism went straight out of the window when he stepped into the classroom.
The resentful gazes of his peers bore holes into the young boy's mind as he shrugged off their hateful eyes. The girls in the back kept whispering obvious gossip about the boy as he just nervously stood in the front of the room.
"Go ahead..." Kawakami-sensei whispered nudging the black-haired boy, shocking him back into attentiveness.
"A-ah! Sorry. My name is Akira Kurusu, It's nice to meet you." He stuttered out a bit, feeling his heart rate pick up in fear.
Suddenly he made eye contact with a curious bluenette who shot him a friendly smile.
Her eyes glistened in recognition and familiarity.
If he focused on those eyes, it seemed as if everyone else's hateful glares faded away.
His nerves began to die down a bit as he took a deep breath.
'I can do this.' He sighed gathering up a bit of courage as he bowed, looking up to face the rest of the class, but focusing only on those calming blue eyes.
"Alright, if you could please take a seat behind Takamaki-san..." Kawakami-sensei said as a blonde-haired girl raised her hand in recognition so that Akira would know who she was talking about.
The young boy let out a sigh as he finally sat down.
It was going to be a long day...

That wasn't the first time he encountered problems such as that. People continuously gossiped about him and stared him down, although for the majority of the time he seemed unaffected, it was starting to get to him.
He sighed taking a seat at a empty lunch table in the back of the cafeteria.
He didn't have anything to eat so he just tried to rest his head down on the table for awhile while he drowned out the meaningless banter of the school cafeteria.
His serenity was interrupted by the shuffling of a seat beside him.
He snapped his eyes open to come face to face with a familiar bluenette who began to open her bento box.
He furrowed his brows in confusion at her actions as he began to hear the gossip stream up.
"She's sitting with him?!"
"Is she crazy?"
"Does she know that he's a delinquent?"
"He'll beat her up if she makes the wrong move!"
Akira glared at the comments before bringing his gaze back to the blue-haired girl beside him.
"What are you doing?" He whisper-shouted to the bluenette girl, "Don't you know they'll drag you into these crazed rumors as well?"
"So what?" She questioned, her voice muffled as she tried to speak with food in her mouth. "I don't see there being anything wrong with what I'm doing?"
"I'm free to sit wherever I want." She says confidently swallowing her food before facing Akira.
"Y-yeah but-..." He stopped at a loss for words, she didn't seem affected by the gossip whatsoever.
