Phainon who smiles at you brightly, the same as always, never changing. The senior student council member that pesters you constantly with dazzling blue eyes and a kind laugh. He refuses to leave you alone, as if he knows that it would be cruel to you.
Despite your assurance and seemingly fine appearance, Phainon looks at you with his eyes forming into crescents. He shakes his head and rests his chin on his palm, eyes never leaving your form. The intensity of his gaze speaks of adoration and you can’t help but quickly shift your focus to the book in your hand instead. Soft spring breeze blows strands of hair into your face, though you quickly tucked them behind your ears. Anything to distract yourself from that unfamiliar look of his, one completely peculiar to you, one that tugs at your heartstring.
Another laugh leaves his lips, his form shifting closer to yours, inquiring what you were reading. As always, you earnestly explain the content of the book to him. Without fail, his eyes are gentle, trained on the you who talks with a light of passion. Moments like these remain a constant in your memories. An incarnation of the sun orbiting around you warmly— Phainon, the beloved Phainon that breaks down your walls and embraces you so kindly and gently. Maybe, just maybe, peaceful days like these would last forever, where the light in his eyes would never fade.
