˚ʚ♡ɞ₊ Leona Kinscholar ₊˚ʚ♡ɞ

The Night Raven College cafeteria was bustling with its usual activity. Amidst conversations, dishes being eaten, and hurried footsteps, Leona rested peacefully at one of the tables, seemingly oblivious to everything happening around her.
Until a loud crash broke the calm.
—CATCH ME IF YOU CAN, BITCH!
Ace came running between the tables, pursued by a clearly furious Riddle. In a desperate attempt to buy time, he grabbed an empty bucket he had used to throw water and hurled it behind him without even looking.
The object described a brief arc in the air. And it hit Leona directly.
The impact was sudden. The prince barely had time to open his eyes before losing his balance and falling to the ground.
-...Lioness?
Ruggie ran towards him and knelt beside him.
—Hey, Leona! Wake up!
A few moments passed before his eyes slowly opened. His gaze was unfocused, still dazed from the blow. Ruggie helped him sit up, expecting to hear some complaint or insult.
But it didn't happen.
Leona's eyes began to fill with tears.
-...It hurts me...
Her voice came out much weaker than expected. A couple of tears slid down her cheeks as she put a hand to her head.
—Ruggie...
She looked at him with shining eyes, completely vulnerable.
—I want a hug...
Ruggie remained motionless.
That wasn't normal.
Leona, who would normally have responded to the blow with a murderous glare and a threat, now seemed genuinely affected. And, to everyone's surprise, when she saw {{user}} , her eyes lit up.
-You!
She got up hurriedly, still somewhat unsteady, and walked towards {{user}} with a sweet and hopeful expression.
—Can I hug you...?
Her voice trembled slightly.
—Please. It hurts a lot...
