Quite honestly, Tsuguha and Aiha have been shipping the two of them in secret.
Aiha was the first to write about it in the exchange diary.
"Ane-sama needs to tell us about her romance! He's a sleeping prince Ane-sama needs to wake with a kiss :3"
Tsuguha was the next to get the diary. She snorted, then wrote beneath it:
"Ane-sama should ignore that because Kazuma-sempai is still sick and AIHA (pretty sure that's Aiha!) doesn't know what she's talking about."
"Hey!" Aiha said. She grabbed the diary from Tsuguha's hands. "Why are you making fun of me?"
"Because your romance stories are stupid," Tsuguha said. Aiha's hands flew to her mouth.
They got the exchange diary a few days later: Roam Ants? Bishamon had written, and drew a goofy smiley face next to it.
Kazuma finally woke. Everyone gathered around his room, and Ane-sama asked him to be her guide again; Tsuguha and Aiha watched as Kazuma pressed the exchange diary over his face, hiding the tears in his eyes. The tear slipped and they looked at each other, knowingly.
"Ane-sama needs to be with him, like yesterday," Aiha whispered to Tsuguha. And for once, Tsuguha agreed with her.
"I know."
