"Students, I'm afraid I have some bad news," Mikami-sensei said, looking very solemn at his students.

'Mou, probably gonna say something cheesy.' Nina thought to herself, tapping her pencil on her desk.

"We've only got one month until the end of the school year, there's nothing left to teach, you just FINISHED your final exam, but I still have 20% of your grade to fill up. That is why you will have a project."

A collective groan swept through the class. Mikami-sensei waved his hands to get order back into the class.

"It will be a family research project. You will be required to make a family tree, then do research on one member of your family. Not your parents, siblings, aunts our uncles. I want DISTANT relatives, preferably one you never heard of until this project. You will be doing a presentation on the last week of school. You can choose to work alone, or have one person help you in your presentation. Don't come asking me if two people. I stand firm on one person. You may choose your partner now, and discuss what kind of presentation you'd like to do. Start…NOW"

Chairs were pushed around, and people started walking around and talking. Everyone seemed happy about being able to present with someone else…correction, ALMOST everyone. Everyone excluding our favorite half-witch, Sakura Nina.

'Wai, what am I supposed to do? Ayu-chan now has Kaji-kun to work with, meaning Nina's all alone! Working alone is never fun…'

Unknown to our little heroine, and you till now, dear Tsujiai Hiroki is going through a similar situation.

'Mou…why does Tetsushi and Tateishi-san have to do EVERYTHING together now? Once Tetsushi gets a girl, he automatically ditches his best friend to do EVERYTHING with her. Pfft. I don't get that guy sometimes…' Unknown to him, a gathering of girls had circled around him, eyeing him as a predator eyes its prey. Nina is in the same position, a gathering of guys watching her like hawks. Our two favorite people sigh simultaneously, before turning around. Nina shrieks in shock, and Hiroki blinks in surprise.

"Ne, Sakura-san/Tsujiai-kun…" a guy/girl begins.

'Oh crud.'

"You see, none of us have partners, and we were wondering if…"

'DON'T SAY IT!'

"…if Tsujiai-kun/Sakura-san…"

'CRAP CRAP CRAP CRAP!!!'

"…would like to work with one of us lowly beings."

'Agh. Great. Rejection time.'

"Ano…guys…"

"Ano…girls…"

Unknowingly, our favorite couple started backing up, away from their fanclubs, but unknowingly, closer together.

(A/N: Can't you just GUESS where this is going? ;))

"…I can't work with you cuz…"

Both reached out behind them and grabbed each other and blurted at the same time "…I'M WORKING WITH THIS PERSON!"
