The final exams starts next week, and the results decide whether or not the F-class students make it into college. After having received prior assistance from Naoki with her and her friends' schoolwork, Kotoko is asked - commanded, rather - to get Naoki to tutor the whole of Class F so they can pass their finals.

With Naoki's help, the whole of Class F passes their finals (with the exception of Kinnosuke.) Kotoko tries to give Naoki some homemade chocolate but fails to do so. Later on, Naoki is set to take the entrance exam to Tokyo University. Kotoko sets off to accompany him to the venue; however, the plot twists when Kotoko's health takes a turn for the worse.

Having missed the entrance exams for Tokyo University, Naoki decides to go with the school's escalator system. Graduation day's rolled round and soon after that, the F and A classes bump into each other during their farewell dinners. An exchange of heated words soon ensues where Naoki puts Kotoko down in front of everyone, upsetting her greatly and forcing her to do something drastic - which in turn yields an unexpected outcome.

The first day of college has finally arrived, but Kotoko can't stop thinking about her first kiss with Naoki. What does this mean for their relationship? Just as she thinks she's finally secured a place in Naoki's heart, an obstacle arises in the form of Yuuko Matsumoto, bishie extraordinaire.
