@kyo or kay it's not thar deep, MC acts like a bully. Highschoolers can't smoke, but he smokes, so he dousn't respect the law, so why should male lead respect his personal space or touching? Like really why should he care about MC's feelings? Male lead is a rules stickler and a stick in the mud, but he's well meaning. Somehow get the feeling that you also smoked in school and outside of it... I hate being touched as well, but he wouldn't be in that situation if he didn't smoke and would bring his name tag which should be a non problem, just stick it there and leave it, which means he prolly intentionally leaves it out so when police catch him smoking they wouldn't know his name so they can't report him to school or something.
