Despite having entered by mistake, Aina becomes the dark horse of the Fall Pageant and walks away with the crown. Emboldened by her success, she finally dregs up the courage to confess to lori, but when things don't work out, she never expected she'd end the night agreeing to become Kouhei's girlfriend! As dating noobs, both Aina and Kouhei are in uncharted waters, and despite trying to keep it on the down-low... both Aina and Kouhei's friends look like they might be onto them!
