Hayate's hands were sweaty. He would never have imagined that what he was going to ask for would be this difficult. Usually when he asked Nagi for stuff like this, she would turn demonic. What kept him going was the unwavering confidence he held that Nagi wouldn't mind him taking on the role he was offered. As he plays out potential scenarios in his mind, his head hits Nagi's doors head-on.

"Come in!" yells Nagi from inside.

"Milady, may I ask you something?"

"Sure, what is it?"

"Well, its that Hakuou Academy's Vice President resigned. President Katsura Hinagiku-san has offered me the spot. I wanted to accept it, but first I just wanted to make sure that you are okay with it."

"Why wouldn't I be Hayate? Do you like her or something?"

Huh was all Hayate could say because all of his energy was spent blushing red.

"I'm just playing. Go ahead and take it. I'm sure you will be a better VP than our previous one."

"Thank you so much Milady!"

"Next time Hayate if you want to do something like that, you do not need to ask for permission."


Hayate sprints to Hinagiku's house to tell her the good news. Hinagiku was certainly grateful that he came all the way to her house. While she was focusing on him and his exhausted state, she let one particular thing Hayate said go in one ear and out the other:

"I am your VP." Notice that he did not say Hakuou's VP but her VP.

"Hayate-kun, thank you for coming in person and telling me the great news, but it would've been more convenient by phone."

"Hinagiku-san, telling this great news to you in person was well worth the sprint."

"Thats sweet, but you --"

"It also means that I'll be closer to you." She blushed when he said that.

"Well, since you put it that way..." Hayate gently puts his hands on her face. He goes in for a kiss. It was like slow-mo to Hinagiku; the closer he got, the redder she got. Getting cold feet, she be like:

"Thanks for accepting the position. See ya at school tomorrow."


Hayate goes to school the next day and runs into someone that he was not expecting to see.

"Nishizawa-san, what are you doing here?"

"Hayate-kun, I successfully transferred to Hakuou Academy."

"Oh well, good job. Thanks."

"Hey Hayate-kun, what's up with the badge?"

"Oh this? I'm Hakuou Academy's new Vice President."

"Really that's wonderful!!" Ayumu practically jumps on Hayate to give him a hug and as they are doing that, witnessing the embrace in its entirety is a very vexed Hinagiku. As Ayumu and Hayate hug it out, he hears his name being called out by Hinagiku. He grows instantly fearful because as he turns to look at her, her eyes look all demonic and the background is all flames. When he lets go of Ayumu to look at Hinagiku, Hinagiku momentarily regains her composure and then shrieks:

"HAYATE-KUN, HOW COULD YOU!?!" She runs away crying. Hayate starts to chase after her, but then out of nowhere, Princess God steps in to restrain him, leaving Hayate all stunned looking.

"Himegami-san?"

"Let her go vent alone." Hayate is worried. He tells Himegami that Hinagiku is supposed to swear him in as the new VP in a ceremony that very same day.

"I understand your concern. Running away to her spot will help her clear her mind before the ceremony."

"Okay, then."
