a high school au where force and book were in the same class. book sat near the teacher's desk, while force claimed the seat closest to the door. every day, as soon as the bell rang, force would bolt out of the classroom and run around the school grounds, with the superintendent chasing after him for letting his hair grow too long and wearing shorts that were shorter than the school regulations allowed. meanwhile, book played basketball with his friends. whenever he finished a game, he'd find himself quietly watching force from a distance. sometimes, he'd even catch himself smiling without realising it. sometimes, book would hang out with force, since two of his closest friends were also pretty close with him. but book personally didn't talk to force that much. one day, force approached book and asked him to help with a test. book was a little surprised but agreed. instead of doing it himself, he passed the test to his friend to complete. he never told force that his friend was the one who actually did it, and force never seemed to question it. book didn’t bother correcting him either. force still thanked book for helping him with the test, even though the teacher had gotten suspicious and nearly caught on. book simply nodded in acknowledgement, but deep down, he couldn't help thinking "this guy has such a cute side to him too huh?" whenever book helped the teacher carry papers to the staff room, he had to walk past the disciplinary room. usually, he wouldn't give the names on the noticeboard a second glance. but one day, he spotted a familiar name on the bootcamp list: jiratchapong srisang. he stopped in his tracks, looked at the name for a moment, and thought "not surprised at all na" before carrying on with his walk. it gradually became a little habit of his. and no one, not even force himself, ever found out about this tiny secret of book. it always happened after class anyway
