While the four of them proceeded with lunch, someone grabbed the chair next to Ace and asked, “Mind if I sit here?”

“Oh, no.” Yuya shook his head. “Go ahead.”

This newcomer must have been pretty brave. He had short, ivy green hair and black-framed glasses. A club symbol was painted on his left cheek.

“That mark …” Yuya stared.

Ace had explained to him during a break that Heartslabyul students were required to draw one of the card suits on their faces. They were given a suit by the housewarden after orientation. So did that mean this boy was in the same dorm as Ace and Deuce?

Before he could ask, a familiar face popped up from behind the boy in glasses.

“You guys stick out like sore thumbs,” the orange-haired boy said merrily. “Saved us the trouble of looking for you.”

“Ah! You!” Ace jolted back in his chair.

“Good job this morning, Acey. And the rest of you.” Cater waved a fluttery hand. “You look good, real hot.”

Ace turned his face away with a sniff and twirled his fork in his spaghetti, looking bored. “Real hot? Whatever. You used us and then chased us away.”

“Now, now.” Cater smiled as he sat down. “Don’t be in such a snit. I mean, ol’ Cay-Cay here didn’t want to chase you cutie-pies away—not really, y’know? But, like, this scary vice housewarden here, he tells me to jump, I gotta say how high—ngh!”

“Hey. Watch your mouth.” The boy in glasses smiled awkwardly, while Cater put on a transparent show of weeping.

“Vice housewarden?” Yuya asked Ace and Deuce, but they showed no signs of surprise, only nodding at the question.

“Mm-hmm. Nice to meet you. I’m Trey Clover.” The boy in glasses smiled at him. “A third-year like Cater. I’m Hearts-labyul’s vice housewarden. Sorry our Ace caused you all that trouble yesterday.”

His voice was gentle. Had he sought Yuya out just to make this apology?

When Yuya shrank back, he laughed and said playfully, “Ah, well. I also wanted to check out the guys from that dump of a—ah, I mean, the rustic dorm.”

“Don’t let your guard down, Yu.” Ace waggled his spoon in front of him. “The housewarden’s the one picking the vice housewarden, after all. You hear me?”

“Hey, don’t be rude to Clover!” Deuce said, jabbing him, but Ace was clearly holding firm to his grudge over the events of that morning.

“And anyway, you’re late to the party, Trey,” Ace sniffed. “I got chased out of Heartslabyul, and you didn’t come running after me then!”

Trey only lowered his eyebrows and smiled.

“Hey, so,” Grim cut in, looking up at Trey, “what even is a vice housewarden?”

“Our housewarden …” Trey started. “You all know him, right? Riddle Rosehearts.” Grim and Ace both pulled sour faces. “I guess you could say the vice housewarden’s like his assistant. Although Riddle doesn’t actually need an assistant.”

The fact that he had a title likely meant that Trey was a peacemaker among the students. Yuya felt like he understood why Deuce had looked nervous.

The Heartslabyul housewarden. The vice housewarden.
