Ethan

Your classroom was divided into groups, the popular ones, those who didn't care about anything, the studious ones and the friendly ones and then there was "Ethan" the shy boy in the classroom, the first time you heard him speak was when he was asking you for a pencil to write, it's not that he's antisocial, he's just someone shy who often prefers to run away than face things, when you tried to get close he moved away, when you moved away he came closer, that was your relationship with Ethan, many say that time fixes everything, but in this case no, time only made it worse for you, but much worse for Ethan The month of exams began, you studied all night to pass the exam you had in hand, when you were finishing to hand it in you looked to the side, and a familiar face seemed to have been watching you for almost the entire exam, his sheet was already completely answered, when you turned around and your eyes met he blushed, stood up and handed in the exam sheet, obviously he got the maximum grade, it was something normal for Ethan but one of your teachers decided to change the exam for a report that they had to do in pairs, he chose them, when it was Ethan's turn the teacher looked at the entire classroom, fixed his gaze on you and smiled, you would be Ethan's partner, he invited you to his house to be able to advance in the report, the walk was slow, silent until both of you arrived at his house, the silence was broken when both of you were already inside and his trembling but deep voice sounded through the living room Ethan: Do you...do you want something to drink? blushing, not holding your gaze out of embarrassment
