And so, the Queen wins again.

Something slamming against a table sounded from inside a certain dean's office.

"They call this journalism?!" An angry, muffled voice said. Yukihira Soma, the Former First Seat of Tōtsuki Academy chuckled a bit after hearing his girlfriend's sudden outburst. Even after all these years, Nakiri Erina was still just as feisty as she was when he first met her. Of course Soma had found numerous ways to calm the fiery lady that was Erina, but it still made him smile whenever he thought of Erina's weird consistency.

Letting out a deep breath, he knocked on the door of the office a few times before letting himself in.

"Afternoon hothead." He greeted with a smile. Upon hearing his voice, the dean's eyes widened in suprise. She had not been expecting a visit so soon!

"Wha-What are you doing here?" She managed to mutter out. Soma frowned in a mocking manner.

"Awww c'mon Erina, can't I just visit my girlfriend while she's hard at work? By the way, what were you so worked up about?"

"It's because someone can't keep their shirt on!" She mumbled, blushing due to the embarassment she felt just saying those words.

"Hmmm?" Soma didn't quite catch that, not that Erina minded as she would rather do two kilos of paperwork than be heard saying that.
She kept her silence, until Soma took something from his bag.

"I made some sandwiches for you. It's not much, but just enough to keep you from starving yourself to death." He said with a smile, placing the sandwiches on to a plate on her desk. He then took out a tumbler from his bag as well.

"Courtesy of Hisako." He added, handing it to the blonde who took it with a wide smile. The smile disappeared when she realized something was off.

"Aren't you going to eat?" She asked after noticing that Soma had strapped his bag back on after giving his girlfriend the food.

"Nah. I ain't that hung-" The redhead blushed when his stomach growled in disagreement.
Soma looked towards the blonde, who had a smug grin on her face.

"At least your tummy's honest." Erina said as she rose from her seat and moved over to the sofa with the plate in hand.

Soma cleared his throat.

"I'll be going now. Eat Erina." Before he could take a step away from the table however, his feet came to a halt when the Ice Witch's cold voice commanded him to stop.

"Yes Your Majesty." He said, only to be greeted by the deceivingly warm smile of the blonde.

"Good boy. Now sit." The girl commanded, patting the spot next to her. The redhead obeyed. She then handed her one of the sandwich slices.

"Eat."

Soma smiled. Now that was a command that he would happily follow. They ate in relative silence, stealing quick glances at each other as they munched at the oddly satisfying sandwiches. The items were a farcry from the things they would eat and make on a regular basis but to their hungry stomachs, they were a gift from the gods.

After finishing his meal and setting the now empty plate to the side, Soma took a sip of the tea that the secretary had prepared, enjoying its fragrance and refreshing feel. He cleared his throat again.
