Christmas was right around the corner. The students of EN-high were quickly preparing for their Christmas school festival, decorations being hung upon multiple booths and trees

You were looking around the crowds of students as you made sure to check up on how everything was going, as the school's student council president, you were on duty to keep everything in order.

"Y/N! Can you come see if we did this correctly?"

Eunchae, one of your classmates, calls you over from a stall a few steps away. You give the female a nod in reply, making your way to where she was standing

"That looks nice, I think this should be good for now" you say, looking at the patterned lights and decorations wrapped around the stall. Eunchae smiles before nodding her head

"Alright then, I'm gonna go help Mun with her stall, thanks Y/N!" Eunchae then goes running off to help her friend, you wave her an awkward goodbye before walking off too

You continued to explore the school campus, a clipboard in hand and a pen in the other. After watching your schoolmates slowly finish up with their assigned jobs, you sighed deeply, the festival was in a few more hours and everything was going well. Too well for your liking.

"I hope nothing goes wrong" you sigh, and just as you said that, a snowball was thrown at the back of your head

"Tsk, ow!"

You turn around quickly in attempt to figure out who threw the snow at you. The moment you did so, you were greeted by an all too familiar face grinning at you, you glared at the person, your blood boiling within you

"Hi Y/N~"

Niki. Nishimura Riki.

"Niki!-" you start chasing the male around rapidly as you threw your clipboard into the snow. Your feet were indeed sinking into the snow you guys were running around, but you paid no attention to it. One thing was now at the top of your mind, one goal. Shove Niki into the snow

"C'mon Y/N! Use those muscles in those tiny legs of yours!" Niki laughs. Every single word coming out of his mouth agitated you more.
'Oh am I ready to tattle tail on him'

"I'm telling your sister you trashed the festival again!" you say. Your feet were now freezing, it was cold, numb, and very very cold. Niki stops doing whatever he was doing as he turns to you

"What do you mean? I didn't do anything to the festival!" Niki exclaims, you sigh at his statement. He's done many things already

"Niki. I'm the president, and do you know what the president is required to do? Plan the festival. And what happens if the president isn't present to plan? The festival probably won't happen according to plan. And if the festival doesn't happen according to plan, it isn't ready. And if the festival isn't ready by then, everything'll be rushed. And if everything is rushed, we won't finish. And if we don't finish, there'll be no festival! And if there's no festival, then its ruined! So therefore Niki," you stop for a second. You catch Niki's eyes as you began staring deeply into them

"You ruined the festival because you were the reason why the president wasn't here" you end, Niki gulps loudly. He slowly looks down to the ground in guilt. He stays silent for a few seconds, a quiet atmosphere now taking up the space between you two. A few more seconds pass, Niki sighs deeply, he looks at you one more time as he begins to move his feet forward, the movement of his feet following the pattern, and before you realize, the boy was right at your feet. He kneels quickly, intertwining his hands within each other

"Please don't Y/N, I was just joking, please don't tell Konon!!" Niki was pratically begging at this point. You smile at his position as a glint of victory flashed across your eyes
