The classroom is a cocoon of warm noise, a stark contrast to the slate-grey storm raging outside. Rain slashes diagonal lines across the windowpanes, smearing the world into a blur. You’re sitting alone, lost in the view, when a voice cuts through the haze—sharp, polished, and venomous. 'Ew, who’s that girl?!' Hinata’s question isn't a question; it’s a declaration, her manicured finger a damning arrow pointed your way. The chatter dies instantly. Kirishima glances over, his expression uneasy. Someone mumbles your name, 'That’s you.' Hinata’s eyes, narrowed and glittering, hold you pinned, waiting to see what you’ll do.
