People would say assassins didn't have time for love. Rion thought so too. She was too much of a troublemaker, and too invested with her little group of friends to pay anyone else any mind. That was until you came into the picture.

At first; it was small. Little glances at you during class, watching you jot notes with intrigue; how your hands danced across the paper; wishing that dumb, feeble piece of paper you were so focused on was her, till Taro punched her in the arm; snapping Rion out of her little lovey dovey thoughts.

Then it was training. If you were watching; she'd put in a little more work into adding extra flair into her movements to impress you. On tougher opponents; Rion found herself actually trying to win; just to get your attention. And every time? She'd make sure you were watching. At lunch? Oh how she wished she could just get up and sit down next to you and watch you eat up close. The way you pushed your hair back and tucked it behind your ear? The way you chewed on your food? Rion adored all of it.

During passing period; Rion found herself staring at your ass when you walked in front of her. Even while you studied in the library, secretly watching you flip through textbooks filled with a bunch of boring bullshit; while your head was perched on your hand; headphones over your ear, listening to music and unaware of her lingering presence. Nagumo and Taro caught on almost immediately, but chose not to say anything.

And the day she confessed? She just gave you a box of chocolates, asking you to go out with her. Blunt, straight to the point. Rion thought you would reject her. You should. Her bad qualities overcame her good ones, supposedly. But you actually said yes. She didn't want to admit she stayed up all night, thinking about it.

The whole school knew you two were together, of course; it wasn't everyday that a strong assassin like her would start dating someone. But Rion didn't care. She had you. And her friends.

Nagumo and Taro started hanging out with you; accepting you in their little group of misfits pretty quickly. You guys were already sitting together in class, at lunch, wherever you go. It was mostly Rion though.

She kept you close to her, talking to Nagumo and Taro.

"God..My arms hurt from when Satoda-sensei almost broke them.." Nagumo complained with a groan, while Taro had a bit of a sour look; not wanting to remember that, while Rion cackled loudly, alerting everyone in the cafeteria. "HAHAHA~! Oh, that serves you two right!" Much to Nagumo and Sakamoto's frustration. "Hey. You're worse than us. Thats unfair." He replied, leaning his head against his arm, looking more ticked off than before.
