Don't you think that Ryota and Ayako belong together? They look so cute together especially when Ryota has this puppy eyes look towards Ayako…. It's just sad that Dr. T didn't paid too much attention to my fave SD couple or at least showed that they became a couple in the end… but until that happens… I'll just have this story to be happy about J.. Hope you all do too…

Shohoku Basketball practice….
" Itai!! Hanamichi!! What was that for?? " Ryota Miyagi, point guard of the Shohoku team shouts as the basketball hit squarely on his face, during the team's regular practice.
grrr..That so-called tensai.. If only Aya-chan wasn't here.. I would have kicked Hanamichi's butt…hard!!!"Hihihihi…Ryouchin..Just a wake-up call since your busy making googly eyes towards Ayako!!" Hanamichi Sakuragi shouts back to the delight and laughter of their other teammates including Ayako, who for some reasons was blushing madly. Everyone knew of Ryota's eternal crush on Ayako, the team's manageress.
"You do the same too, Hanamichi when Haruko is here" Miyagi shouts back, trying to salvage what was left of the embarrassing situation but to no avail
"NANI?!! Well, at least I'm able to talk to Haruko in more than 2 words unlike you Ryouchin.. HAHAHA!!"
I'll really kick his butt!!!…hmmm.. After practice… that's right!!.. After practice… you watch out Hanamichi. Miyagi plans to himself. Why did Hanamichi have to say it out loud. It wasn't his fault that he could not concentrate on practice, even talk to her without saying something stupid. Okay, so maybe it is his fault but who could blame him. Was it his fault that Ayako's beauty never failed to mesmerize him. Just to hear her voice, her cheers, her laughter…
As every day passes by, Miyagi could not help but fall even more in love to Aya-chan, her Aya-chan. She wasn't only beautiful but generous and supportive as well. As soon as her eyes laid on her for the very first time, he knew she was the one. The one that would give him inspiration in everything that he does, the one who would give him the strength, the courage but most of all, the one who he would truly care and love. Sure, he asked other girls out to forget, but it was just not the same. He could not forget Aya-chan. She was the one he truly loved the most… if only she would feel the same way too..if only…
Ayako watched from the sidelines that practice was not going too smoothly as planned. Hanamichi was now bickering at Rukawa who was, as usual trying his best to ignore Hanamichi. While the others were doing their own things since Akagi-sempai had to go for a check-up because of his ankle, it looked like one messy practice. She notices Ryota in the middle of the court, who seems to be on a world of his own. She had to do something or Anza-sensei might not be too happy with the results of the practice. She walks towards him, and then brings out her infamous fan [I'm sure you all know what would happen next ;) ] …
"ITAI!!! WHAT NOW HANAMI…." Ryota was about to strangle Hanamichi for good when he realizes that who it was who hit him in the head.
"Aa..ee..its you.. Aya-chan" suddenly his voice turned into a whisper, he looked down, not able to look into her eyes..
why does she have to look so pretty even with that damn fan of hers. Baka!!! Why can't I say something more, other than her name? I've practiced saying her name that it's the only thing that I can do right..sigh
"Ryota, sorry about that, just wanted to get your attention"
*You already got mine Aya-chan… even before…*"Just wanted to say that please be serious with your practice, hope you know that for the team to win, it largely depends on you and with your directions and plays, they trust you and…and… I do too. " Why am I blushing?? Worse, what am I saying….I better walk out now before I say anything else….
Ayako hurriedly walks away leaving Ryota, in the middle of the court speechless, yet inspired….
"Hey Ryouchin!!! How come you still have the same googly eyes in you!! What did Ayako do to you now" as Hanamichi acts to be love struck, to the amusement of his teammates
"Doaho" someone said [as if we did'nt know who said it.. ;) ]
"RUKAWA!!!!"
Ryota, oblivious to what's happening around him sighs…Sugoi!!! Aya-chan believes in me this much…I'm going to do my best. I feel confident now. Who care's if I have to face Maki or Fujima now…Bring it on!!.. I'm so confident now that…that ..I'llI'll ask her out…yes!! That's what I'll do..I'll ask her out…. Ryota smiles to himself. He hopes his confidence lasts till tomorrow…or maybe until he has the courage to ask Aya-chan out. No more clowning around this time. He's out to prove to her how much she means to him.. How much he loves her….
------
Hmmm.. from the looks of it, finally !!! finally!! Ryota will ask our Ayako out…but will he???
