At that moment Ethan took a deep breath and positioned himself properly.
For some reason his heart wasn't beating fast even though he was seated close to the school goddess. He knew this was a really, really bad idea.
Probably the worst idea he had ever had. But he did not care even a tiny bit.
The other students in the class had said such mean things to him earlier.
They told him to go away and leave them alone, like he was some kind of bug or something.
This made Ethan feel so mad inside, like a volcano ready to explode.
He wanted to make them even more mad, to show them that he was not afraid of them or anyone. So he decided to sit right next to the school goddess, the one the other students wouldn't even dare come close to.
