'Sakuno's New Doll'
Summary: Ryoma Echizen only thinks about tennis, his cat, and his favorite drink, thus he is dense when it comes to romance. A witch casts a spell on him to be a doll until he finds true love and to be more sensitive. Being a doll, how can he find love? What if Sakuno finds him?
A/N: Another RyoSaku fic. please read and review. I just would like to remind you that Ryoma is really really dense here. About love of course
Chapter I: Transformation
Ryoma Echizen entered the campus. Squeals dominated the Seishun Gakuen grounds.
'Kyaah! Look, it's Ryoma-sama!'
'Ohayou gozaimasu Ryoma-sama!'
'You look more gorgeous when you ignore me!'
'Ignore me too!'
This is what always welcomed him upon his arrival every morning.
But these greetings had no effect for him. He didn't mind if people greet him or not. It's not his problem anyway.
He dragged his feet with bore in his eyes.
All he had in his mind is tennis, tennis and tennis. Well let's include Ponta and Karupin. No wonder, romance has never been part of his life. He knows so much about tennis as much as he is too dense about love.
The bore in his golden cat-like eyes disappeared as he step foot on the tennis courts.
Tennis is really his life.
OOOooOooOOO
The morning practice is intense but he had no problem with it. He even enjoyed it.
As he had his Ponta break, an auburn-haired girl with twin braids approached him.
'R-ryoma-kun…'
Without stopping his drinking, he opened his right eye to look at the girl.
'Anou…eto… I-I made some r-rice balls. P-please have some.'
Putting the can down, he grabbed one rice ball and munched at it. As he continued eating, he felt the girl shaking and trembling. He always wondered why the girl is trembling and stuttering infront of him. Of course, his eyes didn't miss those flushed cheeks.
'I-is it delicious?' her voice still trembling.
He took the last bite then finally spoke.
'Isn't harder to make food that is awful?' he's just telling the truth. What he said just now is what's really in his mind.
'I g-guess that's right.' Sakuno frowned.
Silence filled the atmosphere.
He continued to drink his beloved Ponta while the girl wrinkled her skirt and looked down.
Someone watched this scene behind the bushes.
'Ochibi is so cold nyaa!'
'That's not a way to treat a girl!'
'There's a 90% chance that she'll leave.'
'A-anyway, I-I'll go now.' Sakuno left.
'Hn.'
Sakuno left with a sigh.
'I'm 100% right.' Inui rejoiced in victory while scribbling.
OOOooOooOOO
Rina Tatsuyama, a Seishun Gakuen first year, Ryoma and Sakuno's classmate, one of Sakuno's best friends and a witch.
Using her powers, she watched Sakuno's every move.
'That Ryoma Echizen is a jerk! He's so dense! He's cold-hearted! Poor Sa-chan!' Rina exclaimed.
Being a friend of Sakuno, she tried to tell Sakuno to forget about him but 'I tried to Ri-chan… but I just can't…' was the reply she got.
'Don't worry Sa-chan. I'll help you!' she said.
OOOooOooOOO
Ryoma was walking to the Ryuzaki residence, his eyebrows furrowed on his way there.
*flashback*
Ryoma arrived home after a long day at school.
'Tadaima.' He said plainly.
'Oi shounen…' the person he didn't wanna see the most welcomed him.
'What is it oyaji?'
'Go and bring this letter to the old hag.'
Ryoma walked passed by Nanjiroh not minding his words.
Nanjiroh grabbed his collar pulling him outside.
'Good luck! Remember to hand it personally to her.' he said then closed the door.
*end of flashback*
'Darn perverted oyaji.' He cursed under his breath.
He rang the doorbell.
Sakuno opened the door.
'R-ryoma-kun? W-what is it?'
'Coach Ryuzaki.'
'Obaa-chan?… ah… okay… j-just come in for a while.'
'No need. Please just call coach.'
'Ahh okay.'
Rina used her powers again to watch Ryoma this time.
'Heehee… now's the time.'
'You dense little man
Shall turn into a doll
Until you find the one
The choice of your heart.'
Rina chanted.
Ryoma suddenly felt his head ache. He closed his eyes to ease the pain.
After a few seconds, the pain's gone so he decided to open his eyes.
Wait something's wrong here.
The letter he held before with just one hand. He can't hold it like that anymore. He can only hug it to keep it in place.
'D-did the letter get bigger?' he can't help but stutter a bit.
There really was something wrong.
He looked at his hands, to his surprise.
'When did I have cloth as my skin?!' he gasped
'R-ryoma-kun o-obaa-chan is…' Sakuno stopped seeing that Ryoma's out of sight.
'Eh? Where did he go?'
She looked down to see Ryoma.
'Kyaah! It's a cute little doll! It looks like Ryoma-kun as well!'
'Doll? What does she mean? Why is she big? Why is the letter big? Why is everything big? Why am I made of cloth?' Ryoma thought going nuts. Anyone would if your in that kind of situation.
Sakuno entered their house with Ryoma on her arms.
For the first time, the great Ryoma Echizen meets panic.
'Heehee.' Rina laughed.
