3RD POV

Could it be her long chestnut hair? No, Satoru was sure Suguru liked his hair better. So maybe her shimmering green eyes? No, how could that be more captivating than his bright blue ones?

Satoru sat watching jealously from a distance as his best friend provided a tour to the new transfer named Sayaka. He couldn't find one reason why Suguru would like her better, so why did he still have an ache in his chest?

"Geto-San, if you don't mind me asking..do you know who that white haired boy is over there?"

Sayaka asked, pointing at the sulking boy on the far side of the backyard.

"Oh, him?" Suguru smiled, clearly delighted to be talking about that specific person. "That's my best friend, Satoru. He's lively and easy to be around. I'm sure he'd like you."

Sayaka nodded non-commitedly, already back in her trance of taking subtle glances at Suguru. Though, how could anyone not look at him? He just has this aura about him that makes anyone want to be in his presence.

However, Suguru paid little mind to her. She was a nice girl and all, but he already had someone on his mind. From day one at Jujutsu high, Satoru had been the only person Suguru would always find comfort in. That once friendly comfort slowly gave way to a more intimate connection between the two of them. Not that they'd ever admit it out loud.

Suddenly, Suguru felt a hand on his shoulder.

"Hey guys! Mind if I join you on your little tour?"

Satoru asks, stepping between Suguru and Sayaka to separate the two. Even though their distance was nowhere near too close.

Suguru chuckles softly, nodding.

"I asked you if you wanted to come along with us when we began, but you just huffed and stormed off. So, if you're ready to join us now, we'd be glad to have you."

Suguru replies, a slight smirk on his face. Satoru had in fact stormed off when asked if he wanted to go on the tour Suguru was providing to Sayaka

"Right then. I'm definitely ready now!"

Satoru replied, a wide grin on his face due to the fact he was more than happy to interrupt the supposed "bonding moment" between Sayaka and Suguru. They were already too close in his opinion, I mean, come on, 7.8 inches apart? (Yes, he measured) There's no way that could be a platonic distance.

Either way, Satoru was going to ensure that there would be at least 10 inches between them from now on.

(this chapter is only this short because it's the beginning chapter. I promise the next one will be much longer😭)
