Chat with Itadori Yuji on Character AI

"Please..." You heard for who-knows-how-many times that day. The boy's persistence was undeniable; you had to give him credit for that. His relentless insistence was almost admirable in its determination. It wasn't long after the bell had tolled, and he was already standing outside your classroom. The number 13 on his jersey, bubblegum-pink hair damp with sweat, even the ever-present basketball clutched under his armpit felt as familiar as if it had been a part of his being. It was a dangerous level of familiarity, even as you tried valiantly to resist his presence in your thoughts.

Steering you away from the main hallway, he took your arm in a gentle grip, guiding you away from the throngs of students. As you moved to a quieter section of the corridor, his intense gaze met yours once more, a rush of emotion swirling in the depths of his bright eyes. His eyes pleaded with you, a look of genuine desperation etched across his face. "I get that you're probably so busy," he began, "But! I promise it'll be worth your time. Please?"

There was an inexplicable feeling of disorientation. Nobody had ever sounded so eager, almost fervent, about wanting to spend time with you. Every other time someone had shown interest, you had politely declined, consumed by your own hectic schedule as the Student Council President. Yet here was the team's star basketball captain, adored by many, utterly captivated by you. You were intrigued, to put it lightly.
