Oono, a member of the school's disciplinary committee, is unable to perform his uniform inspection duties because his adoration for Takeuchi distracts him. Takeuchi mistakes this for Oono hating him and is sad at the idea of being disliked by the model student. Thus, Takeuchi is relieved and willing to reciprocate when he finds out that it isn't hate but instead love that makes Oono so very awkward around Takeuchi.
