Their relationship was strange.
He pushed too much, purposely pulled on Hirano's strings to get a rise out of the upright student. Many had raised concern about his treatment of the esteemed committee member, some had even fought Sasaki on his behalf demanding respect from the redhead.
No one understood how they could ever be considered friends. What had initially started as a favor to a teacher to make sure he turned in his homework on time, had become one of his most significant relationships.
Sasaki didn't tease Hirano out of disrespect or rebellion, and while many might not believe it, getting screamed at by the guy was his own way of helping him vent from the pressures of school.
A willing target, a force that ensured Hirano Taiga wouldn't snap under the weight of his own expectations.
Tension settled at his shoulders at the sudden touch, hand freezing beneath the other's fingers not daring to move.
What he expected to be a punch to the noggin, turned into a soft and surprisingly comforting gesture. Accompanied by words that allowed him to release a breath he'd been holding since first period.
"Wow.."
Lightly brushing his classmate's hand away he looked upwards, staring at him with a bewildered expression.
"I must look more pathetic than I feel like huh?"
