Sobu High *7:30 a.m.*

I look at my phone. It seems I still have an hour and 15minutes to finish all the things I need to do. I'll better talk with sensei first.

I head to the faculty office to meet Sensei. "This is the first time that I am excited to meet her."

To think that I will voluntarily go to this brutal room but worry no more Hachiman. Just request a club dismissal from and everything is over.

I knock and enters the office. "Good morning Tendou-sensei…"

I bow at her. "…Is Hiratsuka-sensei inside?"

She stares at my face.

Why are you looking at me like that? Did I get dirt in my face?

"Ara, Hikigaya-kun right?" She gave me a questioning look.

I think she forgot about my existence. It's nothing new since most people forget about me.

"Oh, Hiratsuka sensei is inside her room, by the way, you look good in those glasses." She gives me a thumbs up and a wink.

"Thanks" I bow at her and head to the brutal room.

Better leave or my resistant against a mature woman would falter.

I knock. "Sensei, I'm coming in..." I said as I open the door and enter inside.

"Am I in the wrong room?..." When I got inside, I saw a different stack of papers which shows the office of a responsible teacher.

"…Maybe it's still too early, so I am currently hallucinating." I blink my eyes several times.

"Oi, that's rude Hikigaya…" Sensei put the paper she was holding down on her table and start giving remarks. "…So, what do you need that you sacrifice your time for being late?"

"You already know what I came here for…" I give her a genuine smile. "…So, let's not waste time and give me the form."

When she heard those words, she finally looks at me. "Hikigaya? What's with the glasses?"

Hmmm the same routine, it will become a hassle if everyone asks me the same question.

"I think I have some symptoms of being farsighted, so better solved it now than later."

"Okay…" she nods at my answer. "…it suits you."

"Thanks, and please don't try to change the subject."

"Tch…" She looks sideways. "…You got sharper. So, you need the form for leaving the club?"

"YES," I said a little louder. It seems I got overexcited from that thought.

She gives me a glare. "It seems you didn't even hesitate on leaving Hikigaya?"

She stands up and gets the form then moves closer to me.

"Of course not, y-you should know that I didn't even get a good beauty sleep when I heard the news" I remove my glasses and put my fingers on my eyelids. This is one of Komachi's special skill of fake tearing. We got the same blood so I think I can also perform it.

"Hoh, then why did you conclude that you should leave the club" She is preparing her posture for a death blow.

Did I make a mistake at my acting? I need to think of a possible answer. Think, think brain, think.

I put my glasses on my vest pocket. "Um, because I want to reapply for going-home club…" I put my fist in my head and slip out my tongue.

"…Tehee!" This is another Komachi's skill 'I forgot about that' pose.

I bend my upper body a little backward.

*Fwoosh*

"Hoh, you dodge that" Sensei retract her fist once again.

"Ha…ha…ha, maybe lady luck helps me a little…" I straightened my posture again.

"…By the way sensei, you shouldn't resort to violence too fast. If you don't want me to quit just focus that violence on the Principal..." I put my hands upward. "…I'm only a victim here you know!"

"Tch, you know you might hurt other people with your decision." She sits on her sofa and drops the form on the table.

I sneakily tried to reach for the form. "I guess so…"

"…Tch". She immediately grabs the form again.

"Hikigaya, don't let my words go in your ear and leave at the other" Her fist crumpled the form a little.

"O-oi you might destroy that!"

I'm currently panicking from what I just witness, the paper of freedom!

"Do you not care about your club mates?" She looks at me seriously.

"Oh them?..." I just wave my hand.

"…Don't worry I already talk it to Yukinoshita and I must clarify to you that she takes it in positive more than the negative, so please don't hurt Form-chan." I pleaded.

"Huh, she accepts it?" She unconsciously gave me the form.

"Of course, we talk about it yesterday…" I put the form on the table and flatten the crumpled side. "…Hmmm safe"

"I'll fill out the form and give it to you later once Yukinoshita approved it, you can ask her later." I rushed out of the room since she might use violence again.

I put my glasses again and put the form in my bag.

Time to go to the principal office then.

…

I arrived at the Principal Office. *Knock Knock*

"Pardon for the intrusion." I enter the room.

Two people enter my sight. An old man is sitting in a leather chair while a woman is also sitting in the sofa.

Long Black hair, blue eyes, slender body, a chest that is bigger than Yukinoshita and smaller than Yuigahama. The rank 3rd in our school and granddaughter of the Principal – Tanaka Mari of class 3-J (A.N. She is the girl in the Cover Photo Yay!).

Yep she is a classmate of the Ice Queen and what's more, she also has a cold personality, so I call her the Ice Princess since the Queen is a little bit more brutal in my opinion.

"Ah Hikigaya-san, so you are back from your vacation" I nod on the principal's words.

"I heard from my grandfather that you want to talk to me?" He nods.

"Before that…" He motioned his hands direct to her Granddaughter. "…I want to introduce you to my granddaughter, Mari"

"Good Morning, I'm Tanaka Mari of Class 2-J" She stands up and gives me a bow.

"Hikigaya Hachiman of Class 2-F" I also bow at her.

"Have a seat Hikigaya…" Principal Tanaka points at the sofa beside her granddaughter. "…since we need to talk about important matters."

"Alright." I sit on the sofa opposite the Ice Princess since the Ice Queen is already too much to me.

"Hahaha, you let go of the opportunity too fast" The Ice princess glared at her grandfather.

"Mr. Principal, please focus on the matter at hand"

Ooh so strict, this Ice Princess is scary.

"A-ahem, by the way, Hikigaya-san did you already leave at the Service Club." He asks.

"I'm just planning to leave within the day…" I look at him. "…but why did you forced me to leave the club?"

He picks a paper on his desk then give it to me and her granddaughter.

"School Discipline Committee?..." I frown. "…you wouldn't plan to involve me in this right?"

The Ice Princess didn't even complain which means she didn't mind being one of the committee members.

"What's with the reaction?..." He put his fingers on his temple. "…your grandfather didn't tell you about this, am I right?"

What? That old geezer knows about this.

I heard a sigh. "I repeat it to him a couple of times and he said he understands it. He even recites what I said on the phone but in the end, he forgot about it".

Ooh, I feel you there, that geezer is the type that wouldn't care about other's feelings. He is a single-minded person who only see what he wants to see.

"Well, I refuse."

The principal shakes his head. "That's impossible we need 2 representatives for the 2nd year and what we need is someone that can take the burden since the 3rd year will focus on their careers."

"I understand the situation but…"

I point at the Ice Princess which gives me a glare. Sorry but I'm used to that with the Ice Queen. "…what you need is responsible which is the ideal one should be like this Princess, and the word B-U-R-D-E-N is listed in the 'things that I can't take'."

"What are your requirements at the representative by the way?" I asked the principal.

"Someone like you?" He points at me.

"Oi oi! I think what you need is a customer of the Committee if you point at me." I sigh.

It seems another weirdo intrudes my peaceful life. I look at my surroundings to find an escape route.

Oh, I forgot about this princess. "Oi Princess tell something to your grandfather"

"Don't call me that…" She rebukes and glare at me. "…I have a name."

She turns her glare at her grandfather. "Principal, if the student doesn't want to do it, we shouldn't force him."

I nod on every word she said.

I give her a thumbs up. "Nice follow up."

She glares at me again. Seriously woman that won't work, try to meet an Ice Queen five times a week and see how your resistance will go up, put another Fire Queen then you would become invincible.

"Hikigaya-san…" The Principal gives me a serious look and the Princess did the same. "…If you won't join the committee then what will you do after you quit from the Service Club?"

"I'm going to join the go-home club" I smile at them.

*Rustle*

I heard a crumpled sound and saw the Ice Princess with a paper crushed in her hands.

It seems I hit her limiter, it's good that this is our first and last meetup or else I'll get her wrath with this.

"Excuse me for a second, I'll just take a call" The principal excused himself.

Why is he smiling?

I felt a little bit of something in my spine.

When the principal got out of the room. A one-sided awkwardness appears in me since the Princess is glaring at me like there is no tomorrow.

"Um, if looks could kill..." I look at her while sitting comfortably. I even crossed my legs what a proper etiquette I got here. "…you could be arrested by now because of murder."

"If killing is not a sin, then I won't mind killing you this instant." Wow, what a sharp tongue. Is this the combination of Ice Queen and Fire Queen?

"Then I'm lucky it is..." I smile. "…but I might get embarrassed if you won't stop that."

I saw her fist clenched. Ooh, this girl must be like Hiratsuka-sensei, knows how to resort to violence, then she is good for that position.

"Say Hikigaya-kun, do you know about self-defense" She smiles while her body is preparing to take a stance.

"Hmmm, I don't know since I'm a lazy person after all…" I stand up and raise both of my hands. "…So please hold back to this lazy lamb."

She stands up, moves closer and smiles at me. "I will try my best then."

Wow, what a bright smile if that is only compatible at your actions.

When she closes our distance. "I think I change my mind."

She steps back and attempts to kick me at my upper body.

Oi, I thought you will hold back, what if I get a concussion.

I squat and I sweep her remaining foot which caused her to unbalance.

Unluckily there is a table between the sofa so she might fall there.

I immediately catch her. "I thought you will hold back, but I can't find it in your actions…"

I look at her. "…and be careful next time." She nods.

I decide to bring her down, but the God of Rom-Com likes me so much that he starts to give me his unwanted blessings.

"Already practicing a bridal carry…" The principal looks at us with his fingers touching his beard. "…not bad."

I put the Ice Princess down. "Sorry about touching your granddaughter, but that is the only way to avoid further disaster…"

I turn my gaze at the woman beside me. "…Sorry for touching you and giving you trouble (when you were the real one who caused it)."

She nods but she avoids having eye contact with me.

Seriously is it that embarrassing? Or did I shatter your pride from that mini fight?

"Hahaha…" The old man casually waves his hand. "…don't be too formal since touching her will happen in the future, why not begin now, right Mari?" The old man looks at her.

You're not helping, old man, look her face became redder, should I not call you Ice Princess but rather Fire Princess since you always burn your face like that.

"Wait!..." I raise my hand.

"…What did you say? Future? Didn't I made it clear that I won't join the committee?" I voice my words on the Principal.

"Of course, I heard you…" He nods. "…and you say that you want to go to the go-home club…"

He hands me his phone. "…Here for you."

"Gulp" I reluctantly reach out his phone. "Hello"

"Good Morning Hachiman" This voice.

"G-good morning grandmother." A cold sweat pours down from my forehead.

"Turn the loudspeaker on since I also want to have a conversation with your principal and Mari-chan" I click the loudspeaker button in the phone.

"Good morning Mari-chan," My grandmother said.

"G-good morning Hikigaya-san" It seems she regains her composure.

"Fufu so how was your impression with my grandson?" The question made the Ice princess became red again. She even starts fiddling her fingers.

Wait, this is also a problem of mine.

I signal her all the good signal I know and even with a lot of effort. She still avoids making eye contact with me.

Seriously don't get embarrassed or else my grandma will bring her wrath onto me.

"H-he is a lazy person." She stutters.

Wow, what a great way to start unsealing my so-called 'Secrets.'

I drop the phone on the principal's desk and start praying that they would at least give me the lightest punishment they can give.

While I start praying, it seems the conversation continues, but I lost interest in listening to it anymore.

MARI POV (since our Hachiman summoned his own world)

"Hmmm, so our Hachiman failed you?" I panic from the question.

"That's only my impression on him, b-but I didn't mean it in a negative way" I heard a chuckle on the phone and at my side.

I saw my grandfather chuckling.

Oh no, how embarrassing.

I sneakily look at the other man in the room and saw him looking at the sky mumbling about light punishment. It seems he didn't hear about what I just said.

"Then, it means Hachiman has a chance" I blush from the question.

"I-I don't know about him yet…" This self-proclaimed lazy person is mysterious even for me. "…I-I think I want to know him more."

"Okay, I'll respect your decision, but you wouldn't mind me introducing you to him," Hikigaya-san asks.

"Yes," I answer without hesitating.

Hachiman POV

Sigh, I hope they wouldn't find out my games and light novel collections. I'll do anything I swear!

"Hachiman!..." I heard a voice on the phone.

"…I'll do anything grandma, don't hurt my light novel and games!" I pleaded.

Oh boy! What a great way to expose your weakness Hachiman! Let's try to change the subject.

"Um, what is it, grandma?" Please forget what I just said.

"Hmm, Light novel and games?..." She heard it clearly.

"…So Hachiman!" a bolt of lightning had struck down upon me.

"Y-yes" I gave up.

"I won't mind not touching your Light novels and Games."

Hmmm did I hear it right? I tried to pinch my cheek and I feel the pain, so it's REAL!

"S-seriously?"

"Of course, but you will need to be part of the discipline committee and help your fiancée."

"Discipline Committee?..." Work, but I spent a lot of money on my games and Light Novels.

"…Okay. I love you, Grandma!" I shout.

Wait I think I heard something that shouldn't be in my vocabulary.

"Um, Grandma I think I heard a weird word in your sentence," I ask her.

"Ehmph" A fake cough of the principal shifts my attention.

"Allow me to introduce my granddaughter again" He presents the ice princess before me.

"She is Tanaka Mari, and as your grandmother said she is your fiancée" He smiles, while the Ice princess looks down and currently fiddling her fingers.

This beauty is my fiancée?

Maybe I got slept in the middle of the conversation.
