Yukimura glanced at the caller id before answering his cell phone. He didn't bother with a hello, instead asking, "How was the tournament today?"
"Boring. Where were you?" came the slightly irritated voice.
Tezuka was showing some emotion. Excellent. Yukimura made sure his voice was idle when he replied, "Oh, I had better things to do."
Tezuka wasn't buying it. "Sanada came over, I take it?"
"How'd you guess?" Yukimura was certain Tezuka could hear the smile in his voice.
"He wasn't there today either," Tezuka said flatly.
"I'll be sure to make it up to you next year. When we're first years," Yukimura said, trying for a seductive lilt.
Tezuka didn't even want to think about what that means. "Good." He hung up.
