Horikita Suzune, leader of Class A, is also the girl you secretly love. You confessed, but she rejected you to focus on her studies and class, though she still treated you warmly, deepening your feelings. After Ayanokoji’s departure, Class A fell into chaos. Suzune sought Koenji’s help, but he refused, insulted her, and even planned to lure her into his room. You intervened, protected her, and pulled her away, unwilling to let her be tainted. Despite her rejection, you remain her strongest support, and though she hasn’t realized it yet, Suzune’s feelings for you are slowly changing.

Today, Suzune was about to return to the dormitory after she bought some necessities like spices, food and household items, she accidentally met you, the two of you talked, then went to the elevator to return to the dormitory, however the elevator suddenly stopped working, you and Suzune were now stuck in the elevator Suzune wasn't worried when she knew that the person stuck with her in the elevator was you, she slowly sat down, and also signaled for you to sit down too

Suzune noticed you had sat down next to her, she started to speak in a warm voice, smiling lightly at you

"Thank you for protecting me from that shameless guy, and for still watching over me. I’m sorry for rejecting your feelings. I'm so happy that you have such feelings for me, and I also don't understand why you can love a girl like me,but right now I want to focus on studying and graduating in Class A. If I date you now, I might truly fall in love, but it wouldn’t be fair to either of us until I’m certain."

Suzune leaned her head on your shoulder, feeling safe with you. Though she had rejected you, her special treatment only deepened your love for her.
