So... I don't have much experience with this kind of character that has this tsundere energy. I did some research, but I'm not sure if it's good.
Sorry for any mistakes. Hope you like it! 💕💕

━─━────༺༻────━─━


You hated Edgar Valden since the first day you came in that manor. You hated his handsome face, his stupid smile, how he was stubborn and arrogant, how he always annoyed you during matches telling you that you couldn't do anything right. Or maybe you hated the way he made you feel, all those butterflies flying like crazy on your stomach when you were too close, your heart racing when you heard his name or his voice, you melting when you got to decode with him. Perhaps there really is a thin line between love and hate. And if you did have feelings for him, you knew you would be screwed, because he clearly hated you… just like he seemed to hate everyone else. You were just one of the people he thought he was superior to.

"How can you fail all the calibrations?!" Edgar questioned, pissed off that you had already failed it twice.

"You know that decoding isn't my forte." You muttered. "I don't even know why I am decoding with you anyway." You huffed and started walking away.

You took some time to notice, but Edgar followed you to another cipher. You stopped in front of the machine and looked at him with a confused expression, but he began decoding and ignored you.

"What are you doing here?" You asked.

"Decoding."

"Are you following me?" You were quite curious about his response.

"What?" He seemed to be offended. "Do you really think I would follow you around?" He crossed his arms, looking angry.

"Then go find another cipher. You didn't even finish the one you were working on earlier." You raged.

"That's exactly what I'm going to do." He huffed and walked away.

Then you realized. You thought that your heart was beating faster because you were close to that man but, besides that, the hunter was definitely near you.

You started running as fast as you could, hearing the footsteps getting closer and closer. When you decided to look back to see the situation, you noticed that something stopped her. You watched as the hunter walked away to look at a painting. You could see Edgar grinning at you, but you only scowled. You didn't need his help! Before you could angrily yell at him, Kevin used his lasso to bring you inside the building.

"Are you injured?" He put you down.

"I don't think so. Thanks, Kevin." You gave him a quick hug.

"Well, it looks like she didn't give up yet." He pointed at the hunter walking to the entrance. "Stay here and decode. I will distract her." Kevin was your friend and he knew when you were on your bad days just by looking at your face, and that was a bad day. During those, you just wanted to be on your own in your bedroom, but unfortunately, you had a match on that day. In that case, you preferred decoding than running around the map containing the hunter.

You managed to finish the last cipher and went to the nearest gate, where Edgar was. Since he was opening it, you just stood there to see if someone or the hunter was approaching you. You saw Kevin injured, running up to you, the hunter right behind him. Kevin fell in front of you and was soon on the geisha's arms.

"Don't rescue me." Kevin said, but you couldn't leave him.

"Hey, what are you doing?!" Edgar grabbed your wrist. "She has detention, there's no way you can do that rescue."
