~ Going Away ~
A Prince Of Tennis [Tennis no Ohjisama] Fic
Warning: Contains Shounen-Ai [aka Yaoi]
Pairings: TEZFUJI FOREVER!! ^_^ Also, Inui-Kaidoh, and Oishi-Eiji... But hints only. Sorry! ^.^"
Disclaimer: All this do not belong to me, I'm not making any profit form this. I'm not even sure if the plot is mine! ^.^
Summary: There's something wrong with Fuji... and Tezuka wants to know what. But everything only goes downhill from then on. Will he be able to see Fuji again?
Notes: This is my first ever Teni Puri fic, and actually, I've only watched until the fourth episode. ~.~ Yet I know so much... Don't ask how. Please, don't hold back on the criticism, I just want to improve this fic. It's probably going to be only three chapters long. And (if) you want more, I can type out a few more plots that've been brewing in my head. *cackles evilly*
"16 more laps!" Tezuka ordered everyone, as he jogged past the tired non- regulars. Behind him, the other regulars kept up, jogging past the younger students. He was about to tell the lagging students to hurry up, however, as he turned to watch the others, he caught sight of an extremely- almost scarily (if anything scared Tezuka) pale Fuji. The prodigy was panting hard, and obviously was in no condition to run 16 more laps- or to run any more, in the first place. So, he stopped.
The rest of the team knew not to question him as he pulled Fuji aside, but Oishi cast him worried looks, and Inui jotted down in his notebook. (While jogging?!) As he pulled the tired- but keeping up- tensai away, they boy's smile immediately covered his previously tired and pained expression. But it was still obvious that something was wrong, as the prodigy panted heavily.
Tezuka frowned at this. The other senior usually liked to run, and would even continue running with him once everyone else was over- maybe an extra ten laps or so. But now... "You've been paler than usual recently." He stated, letting the boy know that he knew something was up. There was no smart reply unlike usual, the prodigy just continued panting. But was it just him, or for a moment, did the boy's smile falter and turn into a grimace? He wasn't sure.
He waited patiently as for about five minutes, Fuji just sat there and panted. Later on, the boy just took a deep breath, and weakly, stood up, facing Tezuka with his usual smile. "It's nothing, Tezuka... I just probably forgot to warm up, or something. Thank you for waiting for me, I'll continue my laps now..." He murmured, stretching his legs. He began to run again, but Tezuka held him back. "Sa... I'll wait for you, is your shoelace untied?"
"You know what I'm talking about." He said matter-of-factly, eyeing the other boy warily. He may be the captain, but that didn't mean that Fuji wasn't daring enough to challenge him. Fuji merely sighed. And shocking him with a once-in-a-blue-moon serious tone, Fuji started as he jogged away.
"It's nothing, I've just been having some problems with medicine lately. I'll be alright though, I've seen a doctor... But, Tezuka..." Fuji cut himself off, as his face started to get paler. Tezuka didn't even think as his hand shot out and steadied the boy. "I-I'm alright... Just a bit dizzy."
"You're excused."
"Huh?"
"You're excused form practice today, go see a doctor."
That smile again, the pained one that was currently appearing more frequently than Tezuka would want. "I'm alright, Tezuka I-"
"Fuji!"
He ran forward to catch the slumping boy, who fell forward into him, breathing heavily, and this time, certainly pale. Not even thinking much, Tezuka carried the frail boy, and ran to the school infirmary.
"Fuji-kun." He intoned, as the younger Fuji came out, still in his St Rudolph's uniform.
The boy looked at him in surprise, as if not noticing that he had been waiting (quite anxiously) outside the door. "Tezuka-san." He greeted back, bowing slightly.
Tezuka nodded, and motioned for the boy to sit down as he himself did the same. "How is Fuji? What happened to him?" He asked, trying not to let the worry show in his voice. Much.
Yuuta looked up at him, smiling sadly. "I'm sorry that he didn't tell any of you. Aniki still wanted to be treated as an equal... Now I'm feeling guilty I wasn't there. Damn!" The lowerclassmen looked down, fisting his hands tightly. "Aniki... He suffers from Anaemia. But despite the illness, he continues to play tennis..." Yuuta said, closing his eyes and looking away. "He- he was so strong, hiding all he felt beneath that smile... He had a treatment a year back, we knew it wasn't gone yet, but...-Excuse me, Tezuka- san." He said quickly, almost choking on the last word, and walking swiftly away.
Tezuka sat there, with his usual stoic expression, or as anyone who didn't know him well enough would think. Oishi, who just arrived, saw the worry in his friends' eyes- the slight widening of surprise, the slight furrow of brows that signified his frustration and confusion. Sighing, Oishi simply sat beside his captain, looking ahead, into the infirmary, where a curtain of yellow blocked any view of Fuji.
"I heard... Are you alright, Tezuka?" He asked, concerned, as usual, but even more concerned now.
Only a curt nod came from Tezuka, his face wiped away of any expression now. His mouth was set in a straight line, as he stood up and entered the infirmary. Oishi could do nothing but sit there, and sigh. When was Tezuka going to admit it to Fuji that he liked the tensai very much? Tezuka was already getting geared to tell him- Oishi thought, Then, this happens. He sighed again, and stood up to walk away, when he heard a familiar 'Nya...' behind him.
The sad miaow came from his doubles partner, who smiled at him sadly. "Don't worry, Oishi-kun... I'm pretty sure, that he will go through this. Buchou is strong." Then, his attention got diverted to the scene outside. "Waaai! They're starting to play already!! Let's go, Oishi-kun!!" He shouted, dragging the now smiling vice-captain away. Eiji would never fail to cheer him up.
"Fuji?" Tezuka whispered, pushing the curtain out of his way.
Only a mere movement- an almost undetectable nod- came from the bed, where an extremely pale boy lay. "They said that the ambulance is coming soon... Take care of yourself... I- We're going to visit you at the hospital once we can."
"..."
An uncomfortable silence for Tezuka wove itself around them, only to be broken by Fuji's weak voice. "Ma... That would be nice." He whispered, and took a deep breath. "Sorry for the trouble..."
"It wasn't any trouble... Just get well again soon."
"Tezu-"
"Aniki! The ambulance is here- Tezuka-san..." Yuuta said, surprised.
"Take care." Tezuka told his team member, standing up and walking away, bowing to Yuuta on his way out.

A/N: Was that too mean an ending? Are there even people reading this?! I'm so sorry if it was bad, but- I PROMISE! I'm going to make it better the next chapter, which is going to be WAAAAAY longer. Maybe twice the length? I hope so...
