Imagine your OC blushing and flustered after a compliment

"So, you're the quiet type, huh?"

Yuki glances up from her case studies to see a fellow student - the guy who usually sat in front of her. She'd never really paid attention to his existence, as she'd decided early on that there was not much to care about outside of her Task and her cohort. What the hell did he want?

"Do I know you?" she asks, trying to hide the flat tone of her voice. Best be polite. This guy could be an ally or an enemy.

He chuckles gently, shifting his chair in order to sit closer to her. As he leans in, she catches the scent of [common cologne] in the air.

"No, but I've seen you around. You're really smart! You seem to have such an inquisitive mind. I'd love to probe your knowledge of [random bio topic] sometime," he says with a wink.

"I, uh..." Yuki stammers, caught off guard. Was that supposed to be a complement What game was this guy playing at?

He seems to sense her discomfort and immediately leans back, putting some distance between them. "Sorry, I didn't mean to freak you out. I just thought you were really cute. Wanted to say hi and everything. It's hard not to notice a first year in our second year class..." he rambles nervously.

"You think I'm ... cute?" Yuki interrupts, surprised. Nobody has ever said that to her before. Unable to help herself, she smiles.
