(A/N Notes: Because of uni, I was only able to write this new story, because I'm writing it from my phone, so I'll be updating it because I am writing on my phone, differently from the other stories that I write on my computer)

"Good morning, Nozawa-kun"

"Ah! Good morning, Hoshino-san"

It was early morning, and the two greeted each other inside the still empty classroom. It has been a few weeks since the two got acquainted with each other, but nothing has really happened between the two

Aside from greeting each other in the mornings, and occasionally giving their farewells to each other if they happened to pass by at the shoe lockers. The two hardly interacted with each other, as neither of them was particularly talkative, and also they were doing their hobbies most of the time

Which included reading books or light novels in the case of both, with Naoki also listening to music, and occasionally reading from his phone. Due to that, they would both end up not interacting at all during the week

And today, they were doing the same, engrossing themselves in their hobbies as the time passed and the classroom filled, when they noticed that the classroom was mostly full and the teacher walked in, they closed their books, and put them back in their bags

Some time later

The school bell ranged, signaling it was the start of lunchtime, some of the students in the classroom dashed away in a gamble to reach the cafeteria before everyone else, as the place would become a battlefield at the start of the lunchtime

As for Naoki and Chihiro, they both simply cleaned their desk and then picked a lunchbox from their bags, and then they began having their lunches on their desks. That wasn't an unusual sight, as some of their classmates also ate in the classroom, while others would more often than not return to the classroom after managing to buy something from the cafeteria

Even though the two were having lunch right beside each other, they didn't even try to start a conversation as they preferred eating in silence. When they finished eating, they closed and put their lunchboxes back into their bags, then they picked up the books yet again and went back to reading until the end of lunchtime

Eventually, lunchtime ended, and the students went back to having their lessons. The teacher finished giving his lecture just as the school bell rang signaling the change of lessons, the teacher finished his lecture by passing homework before he left the classroom, only for the next teacher to walk inside

Chihiro then went to pick up her literature lecture book inside her bag, but as she searched it, she couldn't find it, instead, she had her grammar lecture book in its place

"..."

Chihiro stared in silence at the grammar book in her hands, and then she sighed at her mistake of confusing the two books and not noticing it earlier. She thought for a moment about what to do, she thought of asking her friends for help, but they were all seated away from her, so they weren't an option. Then she looked to her side and saw that Naoki had brought the literature book

"..." <I guess, I'll have to rely on him again>

With that in mind, Chihiro extended her arms towards Naoki and tugged his left arm sleeve

"?... *Whisper* What is it, Hoshino-san?"

"*Whisper* I forgot my literature book, can you share yours with me?"

"*Whisper* Eh, sure. Let's join our desk then"

"*Whisper* Thank you very much, you're a lifesaver, Nozawa-kun"

"*Whisper* No problem"

Then with that, the two carefully joined their desks to make the least amount of disturbance possible as the teacher prepared to give her lecture. The lesson went without a hitch, and there was also no problem between Naoki and Chihiro as they shared the lecture book, especially because Chihiro was left-handed, while Naoki was right-handed

When the lesson ended, the two put their desks back in their original places, after doing that pretty quickly, they still had some free time as the next teacher still hadn't come

"Again, thank you for sharing your literature with me, Nozawa-kun"

"No biggie, and it wasn't that troublesome to share it with you"

"I see, still if there's something I can help you with please tell me"

"Is that so? Then do you have a spare pen? Mine ran out of ink yesterday and I forgot to pick a new one"

"A spare pen? Sure, I have one"

Chihiro picked a pen from her pencil case and handed it over to Naoki

"Thanks, I'll return it to you later"

"You don't have to, I have more than three spare pens with me"

"Oh! Then thank you very much for the pen, Hoshino-san"

"No problem, Nozawa-kun"

Just as the two ended their small talk, the next teacher came in

"The teacher is here. Well, then let's talk again some other time, Hoshino-san"

"*Nods* Sure"

And with that, the two went to pay attention to the teacher as she began preparing to give her lecture

Some time later

The school bell had just rang, signaling that it was now after school, that everyone began to pack their belongings, and as usual of the two, Chihiro had finished packing her belongings faster than Naoki, but today differently leaving the classroom as soon as she finished doing so, she looked at Naoki...

"See you tomorrow, Nozawa-kun"

"Hm? Ah! Yes, see you tomorrow, Hoshino-san"

And gave her farewells to him, when he responded back, she just nodded and then made her way to the shoe lockers. While Naoki stayed behind as he continued to pack his belongings inside his bag

When he finished doing so, he heard someone calling to him

"Hey, Naoki"

"Hm? What is it, Jirou?"

"I saw that you shared a desk with a girl today"

"And what about it?"

"What about it? I'll tell you what it is about it, how can you share your desk with a girl, while I still don't have any contact with a girl!?"

"How? You just have to talk and listen to them like any other person"

"This is not as simple to do as you say! You can't just talk to someone at a higher caste than you like it's nothing! *And more of that social position and stuff they always say in web novels or something*"

"?"

Naoki made a very confused face toward Jirou since he didn't understand what he wanted to explain with all that stuff he was saying

(A/N Notes: I never really understood all that pseudo-philosophy some authors try to put in some, if not most rom-com)
