...O...
"What are you talking about,Tezuka?"Fuji's eyes was opened revealing his blue orbs.His voice clearly showing that he was hurt.
"You heard me Fuji.I love someone else and I want you to stop going after me"Tezuka said looking sternly at Fuji.
"Why are you doing this to me?You know I love you.And I have been for years.How can you do this to me?"Fuji's voice trembled.His tears was threatening to fall.It was just them in the clubroom after practice ended and everyone else have gone home.That's what they thought,at least.
"As far as I remember,I've been rejecting you for years.I never love you and I'm telling you to stop liking me.Stop hurting yourself"Tezuka sigh picking up his bag.
"No!You're lying.You're just saying that to stop me.If you can't fall in love with me even after all the years we've been together,you will never fall in love with someone else!"Fuji lose his cool.He start to tear up.
"I can and I'm asking you to stop or you'll just hurt yourself more.I can't love you and I will never love you.Open up to someone else,Fuji.We're never meant to be.You should listen to your nee-san's advice"Tezuka walk towards the door.Fuji watch him walk away in tears.
"Lock up when you leave"Tezuka said one last time before closing the door.Fuji crumble up on the floor sobbing furiously.He can't believe the one he love the most for years just told him that he love someone else.
He have been pinning over Tezuka since their third year in junior high.Now they're in third year of senior high which means it have been 3 years since he started courting the stoic boy and have been rejected every time.But he is Fuji Syuusuke.A Fuji Syuusuke never give up easily.
"There is no use for you to cry your heart out here,Fuji sempai"a voice startled him.He turn to see Ryoma leaning against the wall near the showers stall with just a towel around his waist.If he's not in his current state,Fuji would surely have admired his kouhai's creamy skin.But in his current state,Fuji cant even think about anything else.
"Echizen.I thought everyone had left"Fuji said in hoarse voice but he didnt make any move of lifting himself from the floor.Ryoma sigh audibly before went to his locker and dress up his school uniform.
"I thought I might take a shower before going back"he finally said packing his bag.
"So,its means you heard us"Fuji didnt look up while Ryoma leans against his locker crossing his arms on his chest looking down at him.
"Everything"he simply said.
Fuji felt his tears start to flow down again.He sobs quietly trying to hide his tears from Ryoma's line of sight.But this is Echizen Ryoma we're talking about.His sight can make the fastest comet to have the shame to pass his vision.He sigh before he walk toward Fuji.Lowering himself,he pull Fuji's trembling body to his embrace.He didnt say anything,just running his palm on Fuji's back soothing him.Fuji bury his face in Ryoma's chest and snake his arm around Ryoma.
After a while,Fuji stop crying but still didnt distangle himself from Ryoma.
"Sempai?"Ryoma tried to pried away but Fuji just tightened his hold.
"Please.Please stay like this for a while"he said making the first year sigh slowly and have his arm around him too.Ryoma was completely sitted on the floor by the time.
"Does love always hurt like this?"suddenly Fuji spoke shocking Ryoma a bit.
"For me,I would say yes.Whether it spoken or unspoken,whether they know or not,if they dont feel the same,its hurt just the same.A lot"Ryoma said and Fuji laugh softly.
"You talk like you have experienced it"he said interwining his own fingers on Ryoma's back.Ryoma smile a bitter smile without Fuji seeing it.
"I am.I love him for years too.But the difference between us is,he didnt even know I love him.Or precisely,he never turn to me,look at me.He's busy with his own love life"this time it was Ryoma who start sobbing.
"Echizen"Fuji tried to lift up his head to look at Ryoma's face but Ryoma tightened his hold preventing him.
"At least sempai are better.Been rejected after confessing is a lot better than rejected even before you can confess.Rejected just when you confess is better than rejected everytime you see him by his behaviour.Everytime I see him,his smile always told me that I stand no chance at all.His smile only directed to the person he love"Ryoma continue ranting.
"Oi Echizen"Fuji tried to push Ryoma away but failed since Ryoma's hold just get tighter by each word.Ryoma has stop sobbing.
"But then,I've accepted my fate.If he can be happy without me,I'm gladly let him go.Love is not something we can force.Love come by itself without we even realize it"Ryoma's hold loosen giving Fuji the chance to push himself away.He look up at Ryoma who looking everywhere but him.
"Does it make you any better?"He said.Ryoma look at him.
"Nani?"
"Does it make you any better?Letting go of the one you love?"
Ryoma scoffed.
"If it make me any better,would I embarrass myself ranting to you?"he rolled his eyes.
"But honestly,I would say it makes my life busier.Everytime I saw him,I have to told myself I dont love him.Stop looking at him.Stop hoping for the impossible"he continued looking at the ceiling.Fuji blink.
"You've given up?"
"You could say that.I can't be the one he love.I will never be"
"Dont you think you're doing that just make you suffer more?You just can't stop loving someone if you see him everyday"Fuji's eyes had been opened all the time.Ryoma smirk lightly still staring at the ceiling.
"Like you huh?I never stop loving him.I know.I just keep the feeling deep inside hoping it would buried forever.I keep hoping it wont resurface so that I dont have to feel the hurt anymore.But I always failed.Everytime I saw him,the feeling just keep becoming stronger and stronger"he said smiling sadly.
Fuji stare at his kouhai.He never saw him like this before.It then struck him.He become oblivious to his surrounding because he mainly watch Tezuka everyday.
Fuji was startled when Ryoma stand up.
"Its late.I have to go home early since my parents gone for vacation and Nanako alone at home"Ryoma said picking up his bag."See you tomorrow sempai"
Fuji quickly stand up too and said,"let me walk you home"
"Maybe next time.I think you need some time alone.Just dont do stupid things.Ja"Ryoma smirk at him before went out of the clubroom.
Fuji shake his head and sat at the bench provided in the room.He stares at the empty space in front of him in silence before letting out a sigh.
"Echizen have a point there.I'm just wasting time going for something I'll never get.If Tezuka is happy with someone else,I should be happy too right.Since I love him and I should let him go for his happiness.But I wonder who get the heart of that stone"he said slowly before closing his eyes and wear his usual smile.He pick up his bag and walk out.
He lock the door and look at the sunset."Ah,tomorrow would be fun"he muttered before walking away.
...O...
The next morning,Fuji turn up on morning practice smiling as usual.He talk to Tezuka as if nothing happened the day before.
"Nya..Ochibi is late again"Kikumaru whined with his hands at the back of his head.
"I went to his house but nobody answered so I just left.Usually his mother would open the door for me"Momo walk into the court doing warm up.
"Saa..He did say that his parents went for a vacation so it was only him with his cousin in the house.Maybe his cousin have trouble waking him up as we all know Echizen is never a morning person"Fuji said smiling at them.
"Did he say that?I dont remember at all"Inui scribbled in his notebook.
"Oh..He told me yesterday"Fuji put his racket against the fence.
"Nya Fujiko.What did you and Ochibi do yesterday?"Kikumaru narrowed his eyes to the Tensai.
"We're just having something to discuss"Fuji reply smiling to his bestfriend.
"Mou..Nya!There's Ochibi!"Kikumaru suddenly bounce off and glomp the poor first year who have just entered the court.
"Eiji!"Oishi scold his partner.
"Sempai,can't breathe"Ryoma manage to breathe out before Kikumaru let his hold loose.
"Oi Echizen.Why do you look like a zombie?Your eyes was red and puffy and I bet if you have your cap off,you would really be one"Momo examined Ryoma's appearance .Ryoma's eyes was indeed puffy and he look tired.
"Che!I just can't sleep last night.I'll be fine after some running"Ryoma pull the brim of his cap down glancing a bit at the smiling Tensai.
"What are you waiting for?Start with ten laps and Echizen,twenty laps for being late"Tezuka walk into the court with their coach behind him.
"Ne Echizen,are you really alright?Are you disturbed by what happen yesterday?"Fuji run slowly matching Ryoma's pace.
"Seriously,I'm fine.Why would I feel disturbed by thing that doesnt matter to me?"Ryoma scoffed and run faster.Fuji watch him in amusement continuing his run.
"Echizen,if you dont feel well,you dont have to push yourself"Kawamura said after Ryoma finished his twenty laps a bit later than the other regulars.
Ryoma frown pulling his cap lower his face,"I'm fine"
"I dont think so.Your breathing was harsher than usual after these laps"Oishi look at him worriedly.But it only make Ryoma scowled more slowly.Fuji stare at him but they cannot see Ryoma's face since he had his cap hiding his face.
"Echizen"Tezuka's stern voice get their attention.All of them turn to him but the said captain just look at the youngest.Ryoma sigh before he walk toward Tezuka who stand not too far from them.
The other watch as the two talk before Ryoma walk out of the court frowning.Tezuka massage his temple sighing slowly.
"What did you say to make him leave Tezuka?He was so stubborn just now"Inui said fixing his glass with a pen and notebook in his hand.
Tezuka look at them as they was nearing him.He glance a bit at Fuji who was smiling as usual before look at the others.
"He would never disobey his buchou.Now go practice"he simply said and the regulars dismissed with Inui's mutter "ii data" and Kaidoh's "fssshh".
Ryoma stared longingly to the tennis court at a distant from his class's window.He could see the shilhoute of the regulars's uniform playing against each other.He sigh adverting his vision to the sky.
"It's not bothering me but it did concern me"he whispered ever so softly that nobody could hear him no matter how close they are.He ignored the sounds his classmates was producing as they start to fill in the class.He remembered his conversation with Tezuka.
Flashback
"What is it,buchou?If you also want me to go,better not to"Ryoma look up at Tezuka lazily.
"Go get a rest or sit at the bench throughout the practice"Tezuka said sternly.They were talking in small volume that the other didn't heard them at all.
Ryoma scoffed.He really hate it when he seated on the bench just watching them playing .
"You heard us yesterday,aren't you.I know you are still in the clubroom"suddenly Tezuka said-more likely whispering- shocking Ryoma.Tezuka keep his expression hard since he is facing the regulars.
Ryoma sigh slowly before muttering,"why did you did it?Were all you'd said true?"
"Its true.Furthermore,I can't do it to you,can I?"Tezuka fix his glass.Ryoma look up surprised.
"Now,go"he continued pointing slightly at the court's entrance.Ryoma frowned and walk away.
Flashback end
"Does buchou know?"Ryoma whispered slowly before his peace disturbed by the loud classmates of his.
"How come I have to be in the same class again with that annoying boy"he cursed under his breath.
"Echizen!Are you already okay now?"Horio said loudly even he was standing in front of Ryoma's table.Ryoma turn to him lazily.
"Dont even care"he said slowly turning away again.
"Tsk.And we were worried about you"Horio start to walk away but turned back again.
"Oh and Tezuka buchou said that if you still feel unwell after school,dont bother to come to practice"he said and Ryoma just hummed.
...O...
Despite of being told not to come,Ryoma still went to afternoon's practice.He sigh for the nth time as he turn around to face the person who have been bugging him since he show up.
"Will you stop,Fuji-sempai?"he folded his arms tapping his leg unpatiently.The said tensai grin as he tap his second finger on his chin.
"Ne Echizen,you said that you want to give up on your crush isn't it?"Fuji smile down at Ryoma.
"So?"Ryoma resist the urge to roll his eyes.He eyed their surrounding to see if anyone was listening to them.Fuji smile widen.
"Want to do it with me?It's a win-win situation"he tilt his head while Ryoma's eyes widened.
"What?"
"I'm serious Echizen.Moreover,you're kind of cute and so mysterious.I wouldn't mind to try"Fuji smile.Ryoma was still in shock that he cannot utter any word.
"I'll take that as a yes then.Meet me at the entrance gate later"Fuji continued as he walk away when Kawamura call him.Ryoma remain standing on his spot trying to process at what had just happened.
"Is this deja vu?Damn it!"Ryoma thought and startled when he was shook roughly.
"Oi Echizen!"he turn around to see Horio behind him.
"Eh?"he raise his eyebrows up making Horio hufted.
"Tezuka-buchou have been calling you for the last minutes"he said pointing at Tezuka who was looking at him sternly.Ryoma blink before walk toward Tezuka.
"You called,buchou?"he look up to the tall teen.
"What are you thinking that you didnt hear me?Didnt I've told you not to come to practice if you still feel unwell?"Tezuka stared at the young pillar.
"Gomen.I was just distracted a bit"Ryoma pull his cap down his face.Tezuka sighed slowly.He had saw the two prodigys talking and assumed that Ryoma was currently occupied with the other.He quickly dismissed the boy and went to watch the other regulars.
After practice ended,Ryoma purposely changing slowly hoping Fuji forget to wait for him.He waited till everyone have left before walking out slowly.
"Hope he left already.Hope he left already"he kept muttering the words like a mantra as he make his way to the entrance.He stop walking and gulped when he spotted Fuji leaning against the wall at the entrance.He breathe out slowly before continuing his walk.
"Fuji-sempai"he greeted when he approached the tensai.Fuji turn to him and smile.
"Took you long enough,Echizen"he greeted back before start walking.Ryoma followed.
"Its not that you're afraid of me,right?"Fuji said again tilting his head a bit toward Ryoma.
"Ceh!What to be scared about you"Ryoma pull his cap lower.Liar! "That's good then"Fuji smile and silence accompany them after that until they arrive at Ryoma's house.
"I'm here.See you tomorrow,sempai"Ryoma said turning to enter his house when Fuji pull his hand back and force him to face him.
"Echizen,you dont think I'm joking about what I've said earlier,are you?"Fuji said looking at him straight at the eye.
"You are,aren't you?"Ryoma tried to sound normal.Fuji laugh softly.
"I can't believe you thought of it as a joke,Ryoma"Fuji said pressing Ryoma's given name making the boy gulped.
"But,you lo-"Ryoma's words was cut off when Fuji leaned down and capture his lips.His lips was slightly parted and Fuji take the opportunity to slip his tounge in exploring Ryoma's hot cavern.Ryoma was shocked and he just stand there frozen with his eyes widened.
After a while,Fuji pulled away smiling.Ryoma touch his lips still shocked.
"That's your first kiss isn't it?It's my first too.I intend to make you first at everything.So,see you tomorrow,Ryo-chan" Fuji smile softly before walking away but turn back after a while.Ryoma was still on his spot.
"Since we've kissed and you didnt push me away,I assume we are dating now.You can call me Syuusuke "Fuji said before walking away for real.
Ryoma fell on his butt in front of his front door.His tears flow out without him knowing.
"Ryoma-san"he turn around and saw Nanako looking down at him in sorrow.
"Nanako"he burst out crying and Nanako quickly went to him,hugging him.
"I saw everything"she said patting Ryoma's hair.
"No.He doesnt love me.He's not serious with me"Ryoma said and his voice crack.
"Why does it hurt so much?"Ryoma said again sobbing,wetting Nanako's cloth.
"Shhhh.I know.After all,he's the one you love all this time"
Its not boring,right?If it is boring,please tell me so I can make it less boring
