Well, technically, the column said nothing about you being a couple. It said this Ryuko had you in "her sights."

So let me see if I have this straight... you're the uptight, jacket top-buttoned, stickler for the rules member of the student council. Ryuko on the other hand is this delinquent transfer student who positively bursts into your life unexpectedly, upsetting the status quo and showing you a passion you've never seen before.

One that follows you all the way to Cerealia, even?
