Magoroku was sitting on the soft blue couch that reside in the student Council room. No more like he was hunch in pain by the zapping he gotten for the last few days. It didn't help much that he was sore. He has his legs crossed as his arms rested behind his head lazily.

Sophia only sat a few feet away from him to his side with her hands resting on her lap. Although he highly doubt she would even care about his pain. Seeing how she never protects him and she was often times the one who inflict pain onto him.

Their Master had given them a day off only for a day to replenish their energy. Ikazuchi was extremely impatient so coming from him it was rare for him to give them breaks like this. Magoroku delighted to hear that he was given a day off, at least he didn't have to be zap again.

Even with a day off he still felt dread and was completely terrified of what his master can do to him. But he decided to put that feeling aside for a day and to just relax the best he could. His master was violent towards him but, he still was very loyal to him.

Sophia on the other hand didn't care. Why would she? She didn't get zap?

None of them knew how it was truly hard for him to catch that tenbu card, wasn't exactly an easy task for either him or Sophia to accomplish.

His eyes gazed at the flat screen TV that

Was nailed to the wall. Trying to focus on a Buddyfight that was currently going on. This didn't help much to his disarray.

He glanced at the younger girl that was sitting next to him. Her light blue eyes were glued on the TV, looking as emotionless as ever. He wonders what the girl was thinking. What goes on inside that little head of her's? And why she wasn't so afraid of master like he was.

The white-haired girl took note of his starring. She averted her attention towards him. His eyes managed to meant hers. They only lock eyes for a moment.

The male felt a burning sensation within his cheeks. He turned away quickly, feeling embarrassed for being caught staring at her. He decided to ignore that embarrassing moment trying to focus on the screen of the Tv. He just couldn't focus on it no matter how hard he manages to tried.

He found it boring so instead he let his mind wonder...to Sophia, again. How could anyone possibly like someone who was constantly malice towards him? He asked that question to himself more times then he could honestly count. He knew the answer... that is the type of people he hangs around with more. Rouga, Daivde, Terumi, and Gremlin were always rude to him. It's not like he really cares about them. Sophia was different... she can Literally take down the whole buddy police if she really wanted to. In fact she is much more powerful than the buddy police.

He likes having her around, even if she didn't talk much. She didn't need to. Even with the dead silent knowing he had at least someone there was nice and he was rather content with that. He never liked the idea of being alone. He never had someone who was willing... well been order by Kyoya... to be his assistant. He never had one before her. Being with someone else made him feel better.

He trusted the girl more than anyone. She made him feel safe. She was his lifeline in a way. He admires her intellect. And let's not forget her Buddyfighting skills. He would never tell her this but: he loves her skills for Buddyfighting.

The girl probably didn't feel the same way towards him. He was okay with that. His only problem was that he somehow developed actually feelings for the vice president.

He remembers the first time he tried flirting with the girl so vividly. He messed up which lead to Sophia to pushed him and walked off. He just gave up after all, thinking Sophia didn't return his feelings. He just accepted it as that was his reality.

From the corner of his eye, he watches as Sophia shifted herself a little closer towards him. Her blue eyes were still looking ahead. Her eyes were like glue.

Magoroku couldn't help but hold back a blush, his cheeks felt like they were burning by just only her slight movement.

'It was just a movement, no big deal Shido...'

"Shido, your cheeks are extremely red," She pointed out. Her eyes were turned to the male nothing bothering to turn her head all the way to face the other.

"Hm?" Magoroku was taken back by this. He turned his head to look at the female, "You must be seeing things, Sophia."

She raises her eyebrow, skeptically at that response. She eyed him intently. She studied his features as his face only grew in color. She took note of the crimson red that was stain on his cheeks. "Are you... blushing?" She observed.

Magoroku eyes widened as he started to panic internally, "W-What me blushing?! Never!" He ridiculed and laughs her off, nervously. He quickly regained his composure, "Why do you care anyways?"

Her voice was monotone as she spoke,"I don't."

Magoroku rolled his eyes, "Sure you don't," He his was laden with sarcasm as he continues, "That's why you asked if I was blushing?"

Sophia groan, quickly showing her annoyance with the male. Magoroku notice this letting a small smirk to appear on his features. He knew he was getting under her skin and he loved it any sort of reaction by her that was somehow triggered by him.

"Using sarcastic remarks doesn't change anything."

"It wasn't supposed to."

They sat in silence for a moment.

"Do you have a crush?" Magoroku asked, seemingly out of nowhere. This question caught Sophia off guard.

She gave a confused and nervous expression. An expression that Magoroku never seen before. This interested the male greatly. "Why do you want to know?" She asked with a nervous tone. Seeing this type of reaction from her was so unlike it. And he loved it. For once he felt like he was in control of her and he loves the feeling of being in control.

Of course he wasn't going to let go to waste, "Well, I'm just curious to see if a heartless girl like yourself actually feel things like affection or love towards anyone."

Sophia narrow her eyes and giving him a cold look.

"That means you do have a crush then?" He asked, "Wait, no, don't answer that! I have a better question: Did anyone ever told you that they love you?"

Sophia shook her head, no.

Magoroku raised an eyebrow in concern. "Not even family?"

She shook her head no again.

Magoroku lower his eyes. His expression saddened, "Oh..." He turned his head to face the TV again. "Well… I love you..." he muttered.

Sophia turned her head to face the tan-haired male fully. "What was that?"

"Oh, nothing. It's nothing you need to worry about," Magoroku explained sheepishly as his cheeks lit up again.

Sophia narrow her eyes and gave a slight groan, "No, you mumble something."

Magoroku sweatdrop, "I didn't say anything."

"You said I love you," She said airily.

Magoroku turned to Sophia, his face was completely red in color, "Um... I could explain!" He shouted.

Sophia reminded completely silent and turned to the T.V. Magoroku gulp then turned back to T.V. They sat in silence. A silence was eating him alive.

Until, he felt something heavy or rather someone on his shoulders as he tense up, not expected any weight on his shoulders. He glanced over to fine Sophia, just resting her head on his shoulders, closing her eyes slowly.

He felt his face burning more, as he felt his chest tighten. His heart was racing in his chest. Was this reality? Or was he just daydreaming again? Was this the same Sophia he knew?

He hesitantly lifted his hand up and started playing and pet with her soft white hair. Sophia didn't seem to this at all as she places her hand on Shido's chest softly. He couldn't help but give a soft and warm smile. She was snuggle up against him. He hadn't realized that Sophia was actually sleeping on him until he heard her make soft noises. She looks so peaceful and cute when she was sleeping. Not like the female he knew that's for sure.

He guess Sophia wasn't so heartless and cold after all.
