Word: Celebrate
Summary: Ryoma tries to set up a romantic celebration, but the only problem is his lovers won't leave long enough to do so! So what's the poor prodigy to do? Why, ask for help from one of his most trusted friends~. So… what will his friend do~?
"Ryo-chan, why can't you get Karupin~?" Syuusuke asked, putting on a fake pout.
"Because I have to finish talking to the vet Syuusuke… is something wrong with my cat?" Ryoma asked, eying him suspiciously.
"Nothing is wrong Ryo-chan, just wondering~." Syuusuke smiled, walking out of the room. When he closed the door, he opened his cerulean eyes with both worry and anger. "Find that cat…" he ordered his lover.
"Syuu, Ore-sama has looked everywhere… and Ore-sama can't find that mangy feline anywhere…" Keigo complained.
"Hey, I just saw Karu-chan run out of the estate…" Seiichi warned, turning around the corner huffing and puffing.
"WHAT?" the diva and tensai exclaimed. The three ran out of the estate toward town, panicking at the thought of what Ryoma might do if they didn't get his cat back.
The three ran into town, fireworks shooting off, when they spotted the two stoics of their relationship. "Have you seen Karupin?" Keigo asked, yelling over the fireworks.
"She ran off somewhere…" Kunimitsu answered.
"MROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!" They all turned to the source of the voice, and their eyes widened.
"Found her…" Genichiro muttered.
"MROW!" Karupin meowed one more time, before the Roman Candle Fireworks shot at them.
"OW! YOU HIT ORE-SAMA! YOU MANGY FELINE!" Keigo yelled, steam fuming out of his ears. Or was that smoke? We'll never know.
"MROW!" Karupin meowed happily, feeling like she just succeeded in winning an Olympic Gold Medal. (1)
"Now now Karu-chan… it's not nice to hit your master's lover in the leg with a firework." Seiichi glared, picking up the small feline his youngest lover cherished so much.
"Thank you…" Keigo muttered, rubbing his leg.
"Next time, hit him in the face~!" Seiichi added.
"HEY!" Keigo yelled as Seiichi placed the Himalayan Cat into the cat carrier.
"Let's take Karu-chan back… Ryoma's going to throw a fit if we don't…" Syuusuke muttered, rubbing his neck from the hour long cat chase.
The five lovers walked back to the Atobe Mansion, ready to keel over. A twin pair of maids smiled and bowed as they opened the door for the five male tennis players.
"Hey brat, we have your annoying feline companion!" Keigo yelled out, a bit peeved at the entire situation.
"Oh! Master Ryoma said when you return to simply bring the carrier up to the room he's in. He's currently on the rooftop finishing everything up," another maid said with a bow before leaving to tend to other matters.
"Does Ryoma seem happy to you?" Kunimitsu asked as they walked to the roof after dropping Karupin off.
"He has seemed somewhat happier lately …" Seiichi muttered, putting a hand on the doorknob. He turned the golden doorknob and gestured for the others to enter. The five walked up the stairs to the rooftop and gaped at what they saw.
The room was covered in silver drapes, the roof open, stars shining down on the world, laminating the room. Ryoma sat on a white couch, a smile carved on his face as he slept peacefully. Ryoma was curled up on the couch, hugging a box wrapped in red, white, and blue paper.
"Ryo-chan… did he set all this up?" Syuusuke asked.
"I would think so… he hates asking for help from people," Genichiro reminded him as they walked up to the boy on the couch.
"Ryo-chan… Ryo-chan, we're back," Seiichi whispered gently into said boy's ears. Ryoma's eyes fluttered open, exhaustion fogging his vision.
"Ryoma… what's all this for?" Kunimitsu asked.
"Ah, well, I thought that since it was the Fourth of July in America… it'd be nice to celebrate it together… like what a family would do…" Ryoma muttered, rubbing the back of his head nervously as he looked at the ground, avoiding the stares.
Seiichi hugged him from behind, while Syuusuke sat by his feet, rubbing his hair gently. "Brat… just being with you is enough to make us happy…" Keigo told him, kneeling in front of the smaller prodigy.
"H-Here… a present to you guys… from me…" Ryoma told them, holding out the present. Genichiro gently took hold of the present and opened up the wrapped up package. Inside the box was a diamond encrusted picture frame with a hand drawing by Ryoma himself. (2)
"Ryoma… this is us…" Kunimitsu noted, taking the picture out of the box. Ryoma blushed and looked away, muttering something.
"What was that Ryo-chan~?" Syuusuke asked, moving closer to the boy's face.
"I just thought it'd be nice to give you something you can't buy… although I'm not good at art…" Ryoma added on.
"Let us show you our favorite form of art when it comes to you," Genichiro said, picking up the small, thin boy. Ryoma felt himself being lowered onto a bed, and blushed beet red.
"E-Eto…" Ryoma started only to be cut off by Keigo's lips upon his own.
"Just learn when to shut up and enjoy yourself brat," Keigo muttered on his lips, causing Ryoma to smirk.
"Oh, I think I'll be making some noise." Ryoma smiled seductively, pulling himself up with Keigo. "And these noises I'm sure you'll be dying to hear." (3)
