As a fan of Ryoma and Kevin, and RyomaXSakuno, and not wanting to write anything Yaoi in case my mind gets corrupted, I've decided to write this Asian drama-like style story. Basically, it's a love triangle between Ryoma-Sakuno-Kevin.
Might have lots of chapters. If it's too long winded pls tell me.
Enjoy and review! ^^
"Game! Echizen Ryoma! 6 games to 3!"
Wow. Ryoma was as awesome as ever. Sakuno sat at the spectators seat as the rest of Ryoma's fans jumped up and cheered.
"Go Ryoma! We love you!" "Ryoma I love you!" "You're the best, Ryoma!" "Echizen Ryoma you rock!" Those were the typical sentence the loudest of the Ryoma fanclub always shout. Ryoma's fame had increased so much over the years. Most of them were girls. Pretty girls. With blonde hair and big boobs. Sakuno thought with jealousy.
Ryoma had really grown a lot. Tall, same messy hair, cute face with a handsome smirk drawn over it.
Sakuno had decided to come to America to find Ryoma after three years of not seeing him. She had already wanted to come America, as she knew that Ryoma would definitely stay in America. Over the last three years she had studied hard, improving on her English, and managed to get a scholarship in one of the Universities. Studying in America, it was just so to see Ryoma without seeming stupid. Of course, it's for her future too.
Sakuno sighed. Ryoma seemed to be doing good. Her heart beat fast as she thought of the probability that Ryoma might not remember her. Sakuno had been thinking about Ryoma for the whole three year, and had rejected every one of her admirers. Now come to think of it, it was rather stupid. Risking her love life just for a guy who she did not even know whether he liked her.
Sakuno remembered vividly that she had given her phone number to Ryoma, neatly written on a nice piece of pink paper. Ryoma had taken it, folded nicely and put it carefully in his pocket. Then Ryoma smiled and said a soft 'bye' to her, and then left, ignoring his seniors.
However, Ryoma did not call her at all. Why? Did he lose the paper?
Sakuno shook her head. Maybe Ryoma was too busy. He's a tennis pro now.
She walked hesitantly towards Ryoma, who was surrounded by screaming fans and photographers. Ryoma sure was popular. Sakuno's heart gave a squeeze. What if Ryoma was the type that like blonde girls with big boobs? Then a flat, brunette like her would not stand a chance...
Sakuno slowed to a stop and watch as Ryoma's bodyguards shooing the fangirls away. She was scared. Really scared. All the years she had been thinking about Ryoma, she knew she loved Ryoma, but will Ryoma feel this way too?
"Hey." Sakuno spun around and saw a blonde hair guy. She recognised this guy. He was the American guy who went to Japan just to defeat Ryoma, something about a revenge for his father or something. Kevin, his name.
"H...hi." Sakuno said shyly. She had never seen Kevin up so close. He looked friendlier than he seemed in court.
"You better forget about seeing Ryoma. Too much fans." Kevin shrugged.
"Oh..." Sakuno looked down, disappointed. She half-expected it. Ryoma was too popular...
"Ryoma's friend?" He asked casually.
"Yeah. We were... classmates." Sakuno nodded. She added sadly. "But we... don't really talk..." Kevin watched in worry as Sakuno looked like she was about to cry.
"You want to see Ryoma? I can always bring you to the locker room specially." Kevin said, trying to cheer Sakuno up.
"T...thanks." Sakuno smiled. Kevin smiled happily too. Kevin's smiled brought out his handsme features, it practically shined, like it could light up the whole court. It was sincere and genuine. Ryoma never really smiled. At least, not in front of Sakuno...
"I'm Kevin Smith. What's your name, O Great Ryoma's acquaintance?"
Sakuno laughed slightly. "Sakuno. Ryuzaki Sakuno."
Kevin looked shocked, and took a while digesting the information. "Oh... I see, Sakuno, right? Your English is quite good for a Japanese."
Kevin brought Sakuno to a corridor. "Here. Second door to your right, and there's your Ryoma."
Sakuno blushed as Kevin laughed. Kevin was really nice, and quite handsome. She had only noticed Ryoma in the past, and had never paid any attention to anyone else. But Kevin seems quite nice too. She's definitely thanking Kevin after this.
She walked slowly towards the door Kevin told her. She counted her steps to stop her heart from pounding too fast. What was she going to say to him? A 'hi', then what? 'Why didn't you call me?' But it seemed rude...
"Ryoma, you were great! How much stamina do you have?" A girl's voice sounded through the corridor. Sakuno hesitated. Her heart stopped a beat as she wondered who that girl was. She crept quietly towards the door. What Sakuno saw next would be a scene she would never forget.
Ryoma kissing a girl.

Ryuzaki Sakuno.
What a beautiful name. Perfect for such a beautiful face. Her blush was so cute and irresistible. She looked really familiar. Maybe he had seen her before in Japan.
Kevin sighed. He had never thought of this name like this before. Normally it was just a normal name Ryoma talked about a lot, a name that showed Ryoma's cowardness, his only one thing he's not good at, a name that he would roll his eye every time Ryoma talked about her.
Now, when he really saw this girl, this famous Ryuzaki Sakuno, his image of a typical Asian girl changed. He never knew Asian girls were this beautiful. Man Ryoma is so lucky.
Ryoma did not even deserve this wonderful girl. He's so horrible, what did she say, something about never really talked even if they were classmates? Argh damn that anti-social brat...
Kevin wanted Sakuno to himself, but Ryoma liked her, and she seems to like Ryoma too. He sighed again. Being Ryoma's friend, he would not betray him.
Kevin snapped out of his thoughts when he saw Sakuno running back. "Hey, hey, Sakuno, where are you running to?" He stopped Sakuno, and to his surprise, Sakuno was crying. Really badly. He panicked.
"W...why are you crying?" He tried to comfort Sakuno as Sakuno slumped onto him, sniffing and slobbering. "Calm down, easy..." Kevin hugged Sakuno awkwardly, patting her as her shoulders heaved up and down uncontrollably.
What on Earth did Ryoma say to this girl? Horrible Ryoma. How could he even make such a pretty girl cry, even after talking about her so much as if he really loved her or something? He was so going to scold Ryoma after this.
"Here, let's go outside. Then you can tell me exactly what happened." Kevin suggested as Sakuno wiped her tears.
Kevin helped Sakuno out. Her skin was really smooth and nice to touch.
He offered Sakuno a piece of tissue, which she used and clumsily wiped her face.
"Okay, what's wrong." Kevin asked when Sakuno seemed to calm down. Sakuno immediately started crying again.
"Ryoma-kun...he was... he..." Sakuno choked on her tears and burst into more tears.
"Calm down, okay?" Kevin squeezed Sakuno's shoulders. "Why not try and tell me in Japanese? I can understand it well enough. Would that help?"
Sakuno sobbed, taking Kevin's advice. "Ryoma-kun...he was... he was kissing a girl..." Kevin shook her encouragingly, sensing that Sakuno was about to burst to tears again.
"A girl, huh." Kevin mused. Ryoma never liked any girl. Not any girl other than those that he talked about, which were only Sakuno and his mother. However, Ryoma would still kiss a girl, even those that he did not like. After all, his team's policy is to push every member to a status of a superstar, so Ryoma had to be more active and social with his fans to boost his popularity. Which, Kevin suspected, included making the fans happy by dating them, kissing them, and sleep with them. Kevin had heard Ryoma complaining about the contract, grumbling that his hands had been tired from hugging his fans.
Well, but immediately after a match was unlikely. "How does she look like?"
Sakuno frowned, thinking hard. "I don't remember. I didn't see her very well. I just ran the moment I witnessed the scene. I... I didn't want Ryoma-kun to see me. I'm not even sure that person he kissed was a girl..."
Kevin burst into hysteria, laughing hard as Sakuno blushed. "Don't worry, Ryoma's not gay, he's as normal as his father."
Kevin stopped when he noticed how angst Sakuno looked. That Ryoma. If he liked Sakuno so much he should not have signed that damn contract and joined that team. Geez, tallking to me so much about wanting to talk to Sakuno, when he knew fully that the contract stopped him from communication with anybody other than his family members and a limited amount of authorised friend. Stupid Ryoma. Now because of your stupid contract you are hurting Sakuno!
"Hey, Cheer up." Kevin stared at Sakuno, then grabbed her hand. He was going to be the one that made Sakuno feel alright. Then he could scold Ryoma and ask him to come personally and apologise. "Come, I'll bring you to somewhere fun!"
Sakuno ran along, wiping her tears, smiling finally. "Where to, Kevin-kun?"
"Nah, just call me Kevin. This is not Japan. You'll sound weird."
"Okay then, Kevin, where are we going?" Sakuno laughed.
"You'll know when we get there."
