The story hasn't actually started yet, I'm just pretty much setting the setting so everything would make sense later so this chapter probably doesn't fit the summary. I mean hey! It's a summary of the story, not the first chapter right? (Plus pls don't be a grammar nazi and bear with the grammatical errors,sorry.)This is the first yaoi fanfic that I wrote so pls R&R!

disclaimer:I don't own PoT.

Otori POV

I shuddered again as the memory continued to haunt me. I hugged my knees as a stray tear rolled down my cheeks. Shishido-san...why?

The counselor that my parents hired entered my room and sat down beside me on my bed.

"Are you Otori Choutarou?"

I nodded in response.

"Can I just call you Choutarou?"

I nodded again.

"Tell me what happened."

Yagyuu POV

It had been some time since Niou-kun and I performed the switch during the Kanton tournament. Yukimura-san had fully recovered from his illness and had been restored his place as captain of the Rikkaidai Tennis team. And also, Niou-kun had recently discovered his strange ability to illusion and impersonate anyone he wants, including Fukubouchou,much to Yukimura-san's amusement.

To others, Niou-kun and I might seemed like a strange combination;myself the Gentleman,Niou-kun the Trickster; my neatly combed brown hair, his disheveled whitish grey hair with a rattail; my shirt without any creases; his dirty and untucked shirt. You might think that two students with completely different characteristics ,like Niou-kun and I,would despise each other. On the contrary, we are best friends.

Niou-kun may appear frivolous, but he actually takes relationships, including friendships,seriously. He also always works hard for both his tennis and his studies even though he act like he didn't care on the surface. He was the one that persuaded me to quit the Golf Club for Tennis and become his doubles partner. He was the one that suggested the switch. To say that Niou-kun is an important friend is an understatement.

"Gekidaza daze!" Niou-kun, who was standing beside me,exclaimed while balancing my racket carefully with his right index finger, pulling off a perfect illusion of Shishido. Not to mention while taking a huge bite of his sandwich held by his other hand.

"Stop playing around, Niou-kun," I chided, visibly unimpressed.

"Hey, it took me two weeks to learn how to balance a racket, at least show some enthusiasm," Niou-kun objected, imitating Shishido's famous scowl.
I simply pushed up my glasses. Why does Niou-kun have such a terrible sense of humour?

Excuse me,where was I? Oh yeah, Niou-kun is more than an important friend to me. To be frank,I actually had a crush on him which is bad especially since I grew up in a family that opposes homosexuality. Furthermore, I cannot confirm nor deny whether the feeling is mutual.

I sighed inwardly,this is indeed a troublesome problem.

"Hurry up, Niou-kun. We are going to be late for tennis. Sanada would not be amused," I reminded him," You wouldn't want to run punishment laps, would you?"

"Come on, there's still ten minutes," Niou-kun protested, finishing his sandwich.

"It's good to be punctual," I replied and started heading towards the clubhouse with Niou-kun following reluctantly behind.

Marui POV

I ran into the club room hugging a bag of assorted gum and panting hard. It really sucks to have poor stamina.

"YOU ARE LATE!" Sanada howled before the other two demons quickly calmed him down. I glared at Jackal. He was suppose to help cover me while I restock my gum supply! I received a short dressing down from Yukimura before I resumed my place among the regulars.

"Why didn't you cover for me?" I whispered to Jackal, annoyed.

"I did, but Yanagi saw right through it!" Jackal replied as softly as possible.

"What did you say anyway?"

"I told the three demons that your little sister came down with a fever and you have to send her home."

I face-palmed almost immediately.

"I don't have a little sister! Just two younger brothers. No wonder Yanagi saw right through it!"I exclaimed, raising my voice a little.

"LISTEN UP MARUI AND STOP TALKING!"Sanada howled before Yukimura calmed him down again.

"Marui, please pay attention," Yukimura rephrased. I crossed my arms and look towards them.

Wait... Isn't that Otori standing beside Yukimura? What's someone from Tokyo doing all the way here? Curious, I perked up immediately and gave whatever that was going on my fullest attention.

"Okay, as I was saying, Otori had transferred here and will be joining us. Choutarou, why don't you introduce yourself?"

"Umm...okay. Hi everyone, I'm Otori Choutarou please just call me Choutarou. I had just transferred here to Rikkaidai. Nice to meet you!"

What the...why would Otori transfer to Rikkaidai all of a sudden? Isn't he one of the regulars from the Hyotei tennis club? Isn't he and Shishido known as the silver pair?

Yukimura took over the mike again. "Okay, do anyone have questions?"
My hands shot up immediately.

"Yes?"

"Why would Otori transfer here all of a sudden?"

"Choutarou, why don't you answer him?"

"Umm...errr...I'm not really comfortable to discuss it, sorry."

Damn it.

Another hand shot up.

"Yes?"

"Are you now a regular?"

"Ya, so our team now have nine members just like Seigaku."

"You can become the vice-captain after I become the captain!"

"Thanks."

Another hand was raised.

"Will you continue to play doubles or will you play single?"

"I don't really know. I would actually prefer to play singles I guess unless there's someone here who..."

"How about me?" Niou interrupted, grinning before illusioning himself into Shishido...

"Let's go, Choutarou!"

Thanks for reading! :)
