Porsche's POV:

"Hey can I sit here?" A familiar voice reached my ears and I whipped my head towards the source, knowing very well who the owner of the voice must be.

And it indeed was kinn! I rubbed my eyes not being able to believe that he was in the mathematics class since he had not taken the subject and he chuckled seeing me so confused.

"You are not hallucinating...I am really standing here in front of you." He said setting his bag down and taking a seat beside me.

"What are you doing here?!" I asked in a whisper-scream tone to not attract the attention of the teacher who had already entered the class.

"Uhm...attend the math class?" He said as there was nothing confusing about it.

"But from when did you start taking the classes?" I asked in feeling uncertain since it was my first time seeing him in the class.

"From today?" He said as if it was obvious and I looked at him, dumbfounded by his calmness.

"Attention class!" The teacher's voice echoed in the class startling me and making me involuntarily turn to sit straight. From the corner of my eyes I saw Kinn looking at me with a small smile adorning his lips but after a minute or two, he too turned to look straight.

Teacher went on to teach a few concepts and surprisingly Kinn was looking pretty focused. He had his face directed straight towards the whiteboard and seeing him, for a moment I started to feel bad for not having such concentration as him.

But fortunately all of a sudden, mam's phone started ringing and she excused herself to answer it giving me a little time to talk to him and maybe get some tips to make my focus better.

"Kinn" I called softly but he didn't respond.

"Kinn!" I increased my voice but there still was no response.

Finally after calling him for a few more times, I got frustrated and removed his black shades and undoubtedly he was sleeping!

"Kinn!!" I shook his shoulders but instead of waking up, he slumped on to my shoulder. When I shook him a little harder, he whined and wrapped his arms around me, completely clinging to me in his sleep.

I could feel the heat in my cheeks rising but instead of letting the moment stay as it is, I had to try my best to wake him up to prevent any of us both from getting scolded by mam for not paying attention in class.
She suddenly barged into the room catching me off-guard and I roughly shoved kinn waking him up instantly.

"What the?!" He woke up with a start and couldn't register anything for a while.

"Is the class over?" He said yawning and rubbing his eyes to wake himself up and I passed my water bottle to him to help him wake himself up properly.

"Oh thanks...I was completely parched" He beamed at me as he accepted the bottle and I felt the same warmth that used to engulf my heart during our time together during the exams, returning to me.

The teacher started giving us questions after a few minutes and because of practicing so much along with mathematics being my favourite subject, I started to scribble down the answers swiftly without having to think much about anything.

But while I was still completing my work, I heard a familiar groan emerging from beside me and I knew it must be from kinn. I glanced beside me from the corner of my eyes, and he had a sour expression on and was staring at the blank page. For a moment, it felt like I was reliving the first day of the last term finals, when I met him for the first time, seeing him like that, but soon enough snapping myself out of the trance, started explaining him to help him proceed.

Upon explaining though, he completed the questions belonging to the same concept quite easily showing how fast of a learner he was.

After about 20 more minutes, the bell rang and the class finally came to an end and the moment kinn heard the bell, he closed his copy and instantly slumped onto the desk.

"Were you bored? You were doing great though." I said and he sat up straight before leaning against the chair.

"Not exactly bored but I don't like the subject so was anyway waiting for the teacher to stop teaching." He said perplexing me.

"Why did you take it then?! When you have no interest in the subject?!" I asked questioning his decision making skills.

"I took it to be able to attend even atleast one class with you..." He said in a soft voice while looking towards me almost making me faint.

"Quit kidding!" I said trying to calm my heart down that was beating wildly and after hearing him say that, he leaned more against the chair while looking up towards the ceiling.

"I am not kidding though..." He said in a whisper that even though was faint, succeeded in reaching my ears tinting my whole face red. With great difficulty, I pretended as if I had not heard what he just said and to prevent him from seeing my blushing face, got up to leave the room first. But unfortunately was stopped by him mid-way.

"Porsche" He called out making me turn back towards him.

"Hmm?" I hummed in response.

"Aren't you curious anymore about what sort of help I need from you?" He said reminding me of our conversation from the day before and instantly piquing my interest.

"What is it?" I asked feeling a little skeptical.

"Just like you saw, I am not really good at maths" He said

"So...?" I asked waiting for him to complete his sentence.

"So...I need you to tutor me." He said almost making me choke on air.

"Me? Tutor you?!" I asked in a really surprised tone.

Him asking me to tutor him was probably the last thing I had expected. Hell I didn't expect him to choose the subject in the first place!!

"Why me?! You can hire the best teachers, why are you taking such a risk?!" I said hoping for him to change his decision but he was adamant on getting tutored by me making me wonder if I could be a good teacher.

"Firstly, I don't have any experience, and second, what if you fail after getting tutored by me?!" I asked stating the fears I had but he seemed too unbothered by them as if he had already calculated the possible outcomes.

"Then I guess we both will have to work even harder." He shrugged making me groan wondering how he could be so easy-going about everything.

"Please?" He requested politely making the puppy dog eyes and rendering me incapable of refusing him anymore.

Though reluctantly, I accepted the offer and he brightened up immediately, for a moment making me wonder if that sad face was just a trap to lure and capture me.

"Then when can we sta-" I tried to ask but he interrupted me before I could complete my sentence.

"Whenever you want, preferably today!" He blurted confusing me as to how he was suddenly so eager to study.

Perhaps he likes the subject after all

I thought.

"A one-sided love. How unfortunate"

I said and he whipped his head towards me catching me off-guard for a moment.

"W-what do you mean?!" He stuttered, his face had a red tint to it making me surprised that even he could get flustered by something. But unfortunately I was unable to determine what got him blushing like that.

"I meant the one-sided love between you and maths? You maybe still like the subject but aren't good at it." I said explaining the meaning of my sentence.

"Oh...that's what you meant" He sighed confusing me again as to what else had he thought I was referring to.

"Yeah maybe it truly is a one-sided love..." He said in a soft tone while looking towards me with such eyes that it felt as if he was confessing his love towards me. Those eyes held an emotion of longing and adoration that  made me wonder if by any slight chance he could be in love with me, but soon enough sweeping those thoughts away I ran towards kinn who was waiting near the door for me to join him so that we could spend a little more time while walking towards our classes.
"I think a part of me does like him..." I thought as I wondered what the strange, tingly feelings I was feeling were, if it was a mere passing crush or truly my first love...
