   For a moment, there was silence.

   Akashi Seijuro blinked, a little taken aback by her irrational question. Just...what was she thinking? Asking his opinion about becoming [surname] [name]'s boyfriend?

   Her boyfriend? Rakuzan's primadonna's boyfriend? That manipulative girl's boyfriend?

   Heh—

   He scoffed. Who did she think she was? Things like that weren't supposed to be questioned, if he wanted her—he would make her his girlfriend. If he wanted someone to be by his side, he would do whatever it takes to keep them close.

   Therefore, he owns—not owned.

   Crossing his arms, eyes glinting with wrath, he couldn't help but feel annoyed. Did she just look down on him? He scoffed. "Ridiculous."

   "Right~?" she replied with a sing-song voice, eyes twinkling bright—full of delight. "[name] thought the same too. Sei-chan will totally disagree with this idea and thus [name] makes a plan that allows [name] to be with Sei-chan whether Sei-chan wants it or not~"

   This time, Akashi stayed silent, waiting for her to continue while [surname] clasped your hands, lips forming a sinister smile. “[name] makes herself bullied by the gang that the chairman's daughter leads. Knowing [name]'s situation, no one will have the courage to interfere... Except you, Sei-chan; the student council president, the son of Akashi Masaomi, the heir of Akashi Corporation—the corporation which sponsors Rakuzan the most."

   Oh.

   He gets it now.

   "And knowing that I'll save you, you intended to use that opportunity to get near me by saying that you're indebted for what I've done." With his brilliant brain, he catches up quickly, lowering his gaze—looking at her disparagingly.

   "As expected of Akashi Seijuro~" She couldn't help but smile sweetly at his answer. "One hundred percent correct~"

    Giggling softly, she leaned closer to face him, hands intertwined behind her back. Even though height differed around fifteen centimeters, their gaze locked. Ruby meets [color]. Intimidating, beautiful, heterochromatic eyes meet big, innocent, enticing orbs.

   "[name] thought Sei-chan would let [name] do some of the student council work or help the basketball club a little. That way, Sei-chan and [name] could always be together! Bu-bu-but... Sei-chan saw through [name]'s plan and instead ordered [name] to stay away..."

   Her voice drops into little sobs, head hanging low—but seconds later, she looked up and puffed her cheeks. Hands clenching in front of her chest, pretending to be angry, but he knew; she was delighted. "It really hurts [name]'s fragile heart!"

   One of Akashi's eyebrows twitched, he started to lose his composure. Of course, he doesn't believe it, her act is meaningless in front of him—she should've known it—and this time, he couldn't help but thought that [surname] [name] equals to a drama queen.

   "Don't test my patience, [name]," his voice is low and intimidating as always. If it was another person in front of him, he knew that they'll be scared off and run for their life—but no, rather than being afraid, this annoying girl in front of him just straightened her posture, tilting her head to the left.
