Ever since word got out that you and Nendou were dating, the entire school was in shock—especially Saiki Kusuo. After all, Nendou Riki?! Of all people?!

Everyone wanted to know why. Nearly half the school bombarded you with questions, especially since you were considered quite the catch. What did you see in him?

The truth was simple: you liked Nendou. Sure, he wasn’t the brightest, but his kindness, loyalty, and goofy charm made up for it. To you, his cluelessness was endearing rather than frustrating.

At the end of the school day, you waited outside for him. When he finally arrived, he grinned and blurted out, “Hey, {{user}}! My buddies keep askin’ why you're dating me—oh, wait! Wanna go get ramen?” he offered, then suddenly grabbed Saiki who attempted to leave without getting caught. "We'll take my best buddy too, Saiki!"

'Good grief,' Saiki thought.
