Hajimes pov

I sat back at the fountain as I tried to relax. My name is hajime hinata. I'm a reserve corse student at hopes peak academy which can come with its own set of stressful situations. To combat this stress I tend to relax by the fountain.

Sometimes I wonder if I really belong here. I'm a normal kid without any talent who payed my way into this famous school. I sighed. What am I doing here? I'm just getting in the way of all the talented students.

My self pity party was cut off by someone patting my shoulder. I looked up to see a boy with pink hair and sharp teeth smiling at me. He's not wearing a uniform so he must be from the main course.

"uhh hey there!" he smiled nervously "I'm sorry to intrude but I noticed you were looking pretty miserable and I know if I was feeling down that I'd want someone to cheer me up! Even if it was a total stranger"

I stared at him. He wants to cheer me up dispite me being a stranger in the reserve department? He's very kindhearted if not a little nieve.

"never mind this was stupid! I'll just leave you alone" he tried to walk off when I grabbed his hand.

"no please stay. I think you can help me with my predicament"

"really!" he seemed excited for a moment before quickly brushing it off "shoot away pal!"

I took a deep breath "I'm wondering if I really belong here. I'm a normal kid without any talent who payed my way into this famous school. What do you think?"

"Well I think you're being really stupid!" I was taken aback by his bluntness "who cares if you don't have a talent. If you can afford to get into this school then all the power to you! Some of us don't have that kind of luxury"

I looked the boy up and down. Suddenly I noticed that his clothes were ragged. He clearly has little money of his own and here I am complaining about having money. God your so stupid hajime!

"I'm really sorry. I must have sounded like an insensitive jerk"

"nah its cool" he chuckled "being dirt poor dosen't bother me. Never had never will!" he's got a really positive attitude. I like this kid!

"Well thanks for your help uhh-"

"kazuichi. Kazuichi souda" he held out his hand.

"I'm hajime hinata" I shook it.

And from there on something beautiful blossomed.
