As the time flew by, the love between both of them was gradually growing like an unfolding bud.

They were becoming closer like, they'll always have lunch together, they both will intentionally do stayback classes just to spend a bit more time with e/o, if they go on school trips, throughout the journey  they'll stick together and if someday both the sections were combined, they both would sit together.

Most importantly almost all of their classmates knew about them being together and would regularly  keep teasing them but it was just a harmless teasing which would make both the boys blush.
