Disclaimer: I don't own Prince of tennis, unfortunately.
"Damn it Keigo. I'm not one of your team mates or fan girls. PUT ME DOWN. NOW." Yelled a small auburn haired girl punching at the older teen holding her off the ground, smirking.
Atobe Keigo, the eighteen year old heir to Atobe Corporations one of the richest companies in Japan and the world, just shook his head, smirking at the girl.
"Yadda Ore-sama refuses to let you stay cooped up inside the house working non-stop on your vacation from school. You Sakuno, my darling imouto, are going to our country home where you will relax until school starts again and you start working overtime." He said nodding at the butler to open the front entrance door. The butler just smiled clearly used to the two siblings arguing.
Atobe Ryuuzuki Sakuno, the younger sister of Atobe Keigo, just glared at her smirking older brother as he commanded the butler to put Sakuno's suitcase in the waiting car while he convinced her to go enjoy herself.
Enjoy myself indeed Sakuno thought as she glared evilly at Keigo. I do enjoy myself; just you wait Onii-Chan. I will retaliate. I have blackmail that you don't even know exists. MUHAHAHAHA!
Keigo gulped inwardly shaking as he saw that all too familiar scheming I will-get-even look in his imouto's eyes. The last time she had looked like that was when he had teased her about liking Echizen and she had pushed him, fully clothed into their swimming pool while recording it and sending it anonymously to his team mate and pain in the butt Tensai Oshitari Yuushi. He had only just lived it down. Well it is for her best good he thought, it's not as if I'm doing anything bad to her like teasing her about liking Echizen.
"Ne Sakuno-Chan, you better go and have fun on your vacation before you have to start studying again and attending those boring formal meetings for Atobe Corporations or I will tell your Senpai-tachi that you can actually play tennis, that you are related to me, that you don't actually blush as much as they think you do and that you aren't clumsy or that you don't actually like their precious Echizen Ryoma for a romantic relationship" he sneered at the thought of her dating Echizen Ryoma. That cocky brat doesn't deserve my imouto.
Sakuno nearly grinned at the sneer on her aniki's face, knowing full well what put it there. "Aniki don't you want me to be happy with Ryoma-kun" she asked almost fake crying.
Keigo began backtracking knowing full well how his imouto's tears work when you upset her. "You don't actually like Echizen, do you Sakuno-chan?" he asked panicking at the thought of Echizen as his brother in law. "You can't date because then you will marry him and then Ore-sama will be related to him and Ore-sama refuses to be related to that brat."
Sakuno smirked as her aniki put her down. "That's nice Onii-san the only reason you don't want me to marry Ryoma-Kun is because you will be related to him, and what did I tell you about referring to yourself as Ore-sama around me? She asked threateningly.
"Yadda Sakuno. That is part of the reason Ore-sama doesn't want you to marry him but the main reason is that the cocky brat is not good enough for you" Keigo said panicking at the thought of her dating or marrying anyone. It was a well known secret in the Atobe/Ryuzuki families that Keigo was very overprotective of his little imouto.
She put a finger on Keigo's lips to shut him up, as she grinned up at him.
"Onii-san shut up. No, I don't like Ryoma-kun that way; I'm more likely to date that leg fetish Oshitari-Senpai, than date Ryoma-kun. Ryoma-kun loves tennis and only tennis, I want someone that thinks the world is me, someone to respect and love me and me them and the person isn't Ryoma-kun." Sakuno said somewhat sadly. "So you're safe from being related to him. And I will go on vacation and relax but I have a condition." She said cringing at the thought of her Senpai-tachi finding out that she lied to them about herself and her family.
Keigo stared at her, knowing full well, that he's not going to like her condition. Oh well He thought at least this will get her out of her room and away from that Echizen brat.
"Ore-sama is listening" he said smirking at her. She smiled "if I go on this vacation, then I want to go by myself without a bodyguard, you or Kaba-chan (her nickname for Kabiji), or even your team mates. I want time for myself without anyone interrupting me. Is that clear Onii-san"
Keigo glanced away thinking, while the butler smiled, watching the masters only daughter twist her bossy, aristocratic brother around her little finger, thinking that girl is just like her mother, nice when she wants something, but if you don't give her what she wants, she lets lose her temper.
Keigo signed thinking she's just like me, a proper Atobe, willing to negotiate for what she wants and not prepared to accept no for an answer.
Sakuno suppressed a smirk as she watched her brother figure out the pros and cons for this deal, knowing full well he would agree just to get her out of her room and away from Ryoma-kun.
Keigo turned back to Sakuno "I agree to your terms as long as that for as long as your vacation lasts you will relax and do girly things not studying. As well as you agree to call me every night at 6 o'clock to reassure me that you are alright. Do we have a deal?" he asked holding out his hand for her to shake, she didn't hesitate to put her smaller hand in his larger one and shake it.
The butler watched with an open jaw as Sakuno then skipped out the entrance doors to the car she had been flat out refusing to enter just minutes ago and told the driver to make sure her suitcases were laid down flat so that her clothes don't wrinkle when they arrive at their country estate.
Seeing the butler just starring at them, Keigo turned and said "Well what do you except, we are Atobes, business especially negotiating is in our blood. Why don't you ring the country house to get them to prepare the house for my imouto?" Everything had to be just right for my kawaii imouto-chan.
Harris the butler simply agreed thinking that he would rather die than get on the wrong side of the Atobes. When it came to family being hurt, they were vicious. He definitely didn't want to offend Miss Sakuno or be there when someone did for when it concerns Atobe Keigo's younger imouto; he is ruthless. No one hurts the youngest Atobe.
"Ne Sayonara Harris. I will see you when the holidays end," Sakuno said, waving at Harris before turning to her purple haired older brother.
"Sayonara Onii-san. I will call you every night at six." Sakuno hugged her brother before smiling mischievously. "Aniki don't flirt with Ann-chan too much while I'm gone as her brother would not be happy with her dating a rival tennis team captain."
Keigo absentmindedly agreed before realising what he had agreed to.
"Oi I'm not going to flirt with that commoner." He shouted indigently.
Sakuno climbed in the car, giggling at her brother's expense, thanking the driver for opening her door. After putting her seatbelt on and winding down the window. She called out to her brother, standing on the steps to their front door, waiting to wave goodbye to her. "Aniki and Ann-chan in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G. Ne Aniki don't forget to invite Ryoma-kun and the Senpai-tachis to the wedding as well as Tachibana-san and his team." With that parting shot, Sakuno drove away to her forced vacation, leaving her older brother speechless with horror.
"Ore-sama is not going to marry that girl" he said spluttered loudly before seeing Sakuno drive away.
Keigo turned to Harris saying "Ore-sama will be in the study waiting for my parents to call so Ore-sama is not to be disturbed for any reason." Harris nodded before following his young master into the mansion.
Keigo entered the mansion before remembering something. He turned to Harris. "Please inform my team that there will be training at 1o'clock this afternoon at Ore-sama's house and that everyone is expected to be here even that baka Oshitari. Also inform Kabaji that Sakuno has gone on vacation and that I would like to talk to him before the rest of the team get here."
While walking to the family study Keigo began thinking about how lonely it is going to be at his house without his young imouto to tease and hang out with. He hoped that his parents had a good reason to send Sakuno away from him.
