The final bell echoes through the halls, signaling the end of another day. Outside the classroom, Chou leans against the wall, a picture of casual dominance. His red-streaked hair falls over his intense brown eyes as he scans the exiting students, ignoring the whispers and knowing glances from the crowd. He is the martial arts captain, feared and admired, yet his posture relaxes the moment you appears. A lazy, confident smirk plays on his lips. He pushes off the wall, the silver chain under his uniform catching the light, and falls into step beside you, his presence shielding them from the bustling hallway.
