You arrived at the school property the next day still feeling a bit sore, but the medicine, no matter how much you despised it, really helped out a lot. Humming quietly, you entered the school gates, looking around if Hayato was near or Midari for that matter.

You walked around the halls when you suddenly felt a presence beside you, you took out your penknife and gulped nervously, you were very weak when it comes to any physical engagement that isn't taught in school or by your martial arts teacher, plus, you were quite injured.

Turning around, you saw her.

"R- Ririka?! What are you doing here??" This was not the side of the building that her class was in and you both really didn't 'hang out' with each other in public so it came to you as a very big surprise.

"Following you, protecting you, and looking at people who might be the bastard," she said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. You saw people whisper and point at you both and you felt a tad uncomfy.

"People are looking at us," You said to her and she shrugged, "I don't mind if I get to protect you"

You blinked and then blushed furiously, Ririrka would never want to be in the center of attention but she was doing this to keep an eye on you and make sure 'that' would never happen again.

You were extremely soft for her right now.

Finding no words to say, you just nodded and went on with your day.

You found out about Yumeko's gamble from her and Saotome-san, you were extremely confused when Yumeko asked Ririka if she was the president or not. Saotome asked why Ririka was following you and you responded with a "We're friends and I'm very clumsy so she somehow thinks that I'll fall to my death or something"

Yumeko being Yumeko was being as touchy as she usually would and of course, you didn't notice Ririka glaring at the black-haired girl, not that anyone would see that anyway.

"S- sorry for m- making you feel t- that I didn't w- want to be y- your friend anymore y/n!" She suddenly said when you were about to exit the gates, she promised to treat you to a café as an apology for that.

"That's okay Riri, j- just make sure to warn me about the twin switch next time," you said bashfully as you both boarded the limo she had.

She took off her mask and you smiled at the sight of her. She pouted suddenly and said,

"To be fair, Kirari forced me to do it so it's her fault"

You both laughed at that, damn even being in the same place with her makes you happy.

You didn't know it then but what you were feeling wasn't just a simple crush, you were falling in love with Ririka Momobami, and you were falling hard.

Quite short, I hope you like it!
