Prologue

The girl with the ski cap covering her dark, curly at the bottom, green hair, was staring out of the window. It was a cold day in Hokkaido(A/N : It seems cold everyday, I think..) and the girl was staring out of the frosted windowpanes.

"Yuki-san, let's go to the airport now to Tokyo,"said an old lady, Yuki's grandmother. She smiled in reply and packed all her stuff into the back of the car.

//Seigaku? Seems like a great beginning//

.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

"Nanjaroh hoi hoi, Fuji!"said the red-haired boy enthusiastically. Fuji smiled in reply and greeted Kikumaru.

"Morning, Kikumaru. It's gonna be an interesting day today,"said Fuji, walking briskly, soon going way in front.

"What's he thinking about, that Fuji. Eh, Oishi, ohayo!"greeted Kikumaru. Oishi waved back at Kikumaru. Oishi walked towards Kikumaru quickly.

"Hey, Eiji, we're not having practice today. It seems that Ryuzaki-sensei is sick, and so is Tezuka. I just can't run the whole team by myself, since I've got a flu too. Seems like the pollen of those flowers have got to my lungs...*coughs loudly*,"said Oishi.

"Aw, that's too bad. Take care of your flu, ne, Oishi?"said Kikumaru. He was wondering what did Fuji mean by an 'interesting' day. Maybe Fuji was going to buy a new camera or something like that.

Filled in his thoughts, he accidentally bumped into a green-haired girl.

"Ah! Itai yo!"said the girl, recovering from the crash. Apparently, Kikumaru bumped into the girl pretty hard. Speaking of pretty, she had the prettiest eyes Kikumaru has ever gazed into.

"Ah, gomen!"said Kikumaru apolegetically.

"No sweat! You okay?"asked the girl. She flipped her hair back, offering Kikumaru a hand, as he noticed that he was still on the floor.

"Er, yeah. I'm alright,"said Kikumaru. "By the way, my name's Kikumaru Eiji. Pleasure to meet you! Never seen you here before, though. Are you new around here?"

"Yo! I'm Haragiri Yuki, student from Hokkaido. Tokyo seems like a big leap for me, a farm girl."

"Nah, it should be alright. Everyone here's friendly."

"Thanks, Kikumaru-kun."

"Hey, you can just call me Eiji, Haragiri-san."

"Yeah, let's cut it out with the formalities. Just call me Yuki'll do, Eiji- kun."

Kikumaru felt his cheeks going red. It seemed as if he knew this unknown girl for ages, because he was talking to her so freely.

"Oh yea, Eiji-kun, do you know the way to class 3-B? That's my homeroom."

"Hey, that's mine too! I'll take you there."

"Thanks."

.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.:.

It was after school and Eiji couldn't wait to see Yuki anymore. He bumped into her again, after school. She was carrying her tennis racket, running as fast as the wind.

"Ahh! Nice to see you, Eiji-kun, but I'm rushing for Seigaku girls' team practice! I would love to talk to you soon, but could you just wait for after practice? Gomen nasai!"said Yuki, rushing her way to the courts. Before he could reply, she was 10 metres away.

Therefore, he stood by the sidelines and watched some girls on the team play tennis. Their strokes were good, but incomparable to the boys' team. Of course, this is a girls' team, not a guys' one. It was quite far, but Kikumaru could hear some shouting by the courts.

"NANI? It's your first day here, and you're LATE?! This is unforgivable!"said a tall girl, apparently the captain of the Seigaku Girls' Tennis Team.

"Gomen nasai, I was stalled during the last period! Hontou ni gomen nasai!"apologized Yuki, bowing her head down.

"You jolly well know your mistake! Argh...if you think of being a regular, you better try defeating the rest and have some discipline first!"yelled the captain, raising her hand to slap Yuki.

Kikumaru raced to the scene and stopped the captain(Apparently called Tsubaki)from hitting Yuki.

"Hoi, how could you slap a member like that? She just late! Besides, if you want to punish her, buchou'd probably ask her to run rounds though,"interrupted Kikumaru, holding onto Tsubaki's arm hardly.

"Who exactly are you anyway? A spy?"queried Tsubaki.

"What the – you don't even know me? Regular in Seigaku Boys' Team, Kikumaru Eiji, the acrobatics player?"asked Kikumaru, pretending to be shocked. "Or do I have to present my student I.D card?"

Tsubaki just froze, and gave him a cold stare.

"Fine, whatever. Run 5 laps 'round the court,"said Tsubaki coldly. Yuki just nodded her head and followed her captain's orders.

//Thanks alot, Eiji-kun//
