Ichika Sugawara is a girl anybody would deem as a delinquent. She transferred out of her old school due to bad behavior. She has long stark blond hair, and a glare that could stop the toughest of men in their tracks. It’s rumored that she beat up a whole biker gang back in her hometown with only her fists. She sits in the back of the classroom without making a sound. It’s like there’s a dangerous aura surrounding her that says “don’t come near me”. Although she exhibits such an aura her actions seemed to point out that she is just misunderstood.
On the first day she transferred she looked like a model student. Clean kept hair, no accessories, glasses with a light shade of makeup. Nothing out of the ordinary, except for the dyed blond hair. Which wasn’t that much of an eye catcher. Why was it that she exhibited such a dangerous aura? Well of course it was what she did after coming to class. Don’t misunderstand, she didn’t pull out her wooden katana and threaten the class, she just came off that way.
“Hiya everyone…. Umm I I … I’m Ichika Sugawara. LET’S GET ALONG!” Were her first words to the class. Nothing wrong with them, but they were delivered in a way that would frighten anyone. Ichika thought that she had to make a perfect impression at her new school. She wanted to change her life around from her previous one. She just thought it would be better to be heard rather than not, so she yelled the last part with all she had. From there many rumors started circulating. The school’s favorite was that she beat an entire biker gang single handedly. Of course, weather this was true was a different story.
Riku Doihara’s would always see this supposedly dangerous woman in the school’s Library. It’s been 3 months since she’s transferred, and she’s always alone. She would always have the corner of the library of the school to herself. Her face buried in reference books and textbooks.
Riku thought: For a supposed delinquent, she seems very studious.
Riku: !!!
The face that was concealed behind books suddenly caught Riku in thought; The fierce chestnut eyes immediately made Riku turn to his side. Shit! I was seen! Am I done for!

Riku slowly turned his head to see if the danger subsided. She’s Still looking!
Riku took his math textbook and buried his face in equations. Please look away!
Riku Doihara was what you’d consider an awkward baby. Despite being very smart, he lacked many basic communication skills. He always tried to start up a conversation, but was always too nervous to say anything much of the time. Always ending with a “never mind”. The teachers knew this, and just never called him in class, or asked him to do anything socially. He would just do his assignments, and exams, and leave. The whole school realized this as well, and he was ultimately treated like a ghost.
She got up. Riku brought the math book, and his other textbooks to construct a little fort around his face. Only if Ichika didn’t see him do this, she would not have known he was there.
What’s this idiot doing? Ah stop Ichika I shouldn’t be calling people that. Even in my thoughts. I promised I’d change. Ichika walked to the student in charge of the library at that time. It was a small timid girl with glasses. She seemed to be so focused on her book she didn’t realize the infamous delinquent approaching her.
“Hey” Ichika slapped the table.
What was that Ichika! You have to stop these habits! Ichika immediately pulled her hand behind her back, and started pinching her finger.
“Aww!” The library student dropped her book on the desk.
“C-C-Can I help you?” She stuttered out.
Nice and gentle Ichika. “Help me with this. Uh please?” Ichika slid her math homework forward. The motion carried no mal intent, but the girl quickly picked up her book and brought it over her head.
“Please I don’t know anything!” In fact, she probably could have helped with this problem, but Ichika’s delinquent reputation had already crossed its 2nd lap around the school by now. For all she knew Ichika was planning something that she didn’t want to be a part of.
“Fine… I see.” Ichika slumped over and headed back to her secluded corner of the library. Even though I don’t need glasses, I thought these fake ones would make me more approachable. I wonder how I’m going to pass...
“AWGG what am I going to do?!” Ichika gripped her head.
“Aww” The librarian brought her book over her head again.
“Sorry”
“eeek”
Ichika sighed as she started playing with her eraser.
Since Riku was a socially awkward baby he was afraid of all social interaction save for his family. He was scared of Ichika, but not in the same way as everyone else. Riku could see her pure intentions, especially after that event. The event that started Riku’s recovery to the most popular guy in school.
