Kicked Out of the House
Summary: Ryoma Echizen wanted to spend a normal week just to carry on with his household chores, but his father decides that having his snarky son home all day isn't good for him at all. So, he decides to send his son off to survive on his own with his sempais from various schools. Will the captains be able to dish out some paybacks of their own on Nanjirou?
Chapter 1: The Sugar-Obsessed Freak
It was a sunny, Saturday morning at the Echizen household. Ryoma was getting up at his usual time, fixing breakfast, feeding karupin, and doing his chores as always. Typically, he would have gone out with his sempais for some tennis practice but unfortunately, that was all about to change.
"Seishounen!" called Nanjiroh.
"What is it? This had better be important." Sighed Ryoma.
"I'm afraid having you around in this house isn't going to do you much good. All you do is lounge around doing chores and messing around with your cat all day. You are so lazy."
Ryoma had a confused look on his face. "What are you talking about? And why do you say I am lazy whenyou just lounge around reading porno all day?"
"Hey! At least I have a girl of my dreams, you know! Anyway, We can't have you staying here all day you know. I'm proposing that you need to live with your friends for a while."
"What friends?"
"Oh I don't know. You know that sugar-obsessed freak from Rikkaidai? What was his name again?"
"Marui Bunta?"
"Oh yes, that's right. I heard he is a great tennis player."
"Yes, so why are you telling me this?"
"I want you to go live with him for at least 24 hours."
Ryoma suddenly spit his milk out onto the floor upon hearing that proposal. "WHAT!?"
"Something wrong with that?" asked Nanjiroh.
"Of course I am against that, you baka!" shouted Ryoma. "Marui-sempai will kill me in his sleep."
"Oh I am sure he wouldn't mind. Now pack your bags, seishounen."
Ryoma just sighed. Did Nanjiroh even get permission from Marui himself before sending his son to Kanagawa? Something tells me his father is starting some perverted scheme again. After finishing breakfast, Ryoma washed the dishes as usual and went upstairs to gather up his necessities including his favorite tennis magazines and shujo mangas.
"Oh and seishounen, don't forget your change of clothes and toiletries. I will bet marui will love it when you are alone in his bed!" laughed his father.
Ryoma had the urge to throw a pillow at his father for suggesting such a thing.
Meanwhile in the street courts…
"Come on, jirou-san! Is that all you got? I got more skills in tennis than you could ever imagine!" said Marui as he blew on his bubble gum.
"Sugoi! you are too good, I could never beat you at this rate." Smiled Jirou.
Atobe watched with amusement. "You know Jackal, marui should definitely join Hyotei if he is up for it."
"That's up to Yukimura-buchou or Sanada-fukubuchou to decide that."
Atobe just shrugged. "Let me know if something changes."
Jackal nodded. He then sees something in the distance coming this way.
"Hey, Atobe-sama, isn't that the brat from seigaku?"
"Where?" said Atobe.
"Right over there on your left hand side. He is waving at us."
Atobe got up from his seat and opened the gate to find Ryoma carrying luggages inside.
"Well, well, if it isn't the brat. What brings you here?"
"Hello to you too, Monkey king."
"I have a name you know! Anyway, what is up with all those luggages?"
"Oh these? I was you know… going on vacation."
"Pfft! Yeah right! I know you are lying brat. Spill it, where are you going?"
Ryoma stepped inside the courts and closed the door behind him. "We should talk over by the bleachers but not here. You must promise not to laugh."
"Ore-sama will never do such a thing!"
Ryoma quickly settled the luggages down over by Jackal and took a seat in between him and the hyotei captain.
"My father kicked me out of my own house and suggested that I should live with Marui-sempai."
Jackal was gobsmacked upon hearing that coming out of the brat's mouth.
"You!? Living with Marui!? How could you suggest such a thing?"
At that instant, Jirou and marui heard the commotion and rushed over to the bleachers to see what was going on.
"Jackal-sempai, what's going on?" asked Marui as he blew a bubble. "And what is all this stuff lying over here?"
"Echizen-san has been kicked out of his father's place and now he is asked to spend a night at your house."
"Echizen's father did WHAT!? For what specific reason?"
"I don't know! Ask him."
Marui then turned his attention towards Echizen. "Pray tell me, why are you going to stay at my house?"
"I don't know why. My father just suddenly decided to just kick me out and wants me to experience survival skills I guess. He even forced me to sleep with you in the same bed."
Marui nearly fell to the floor while Jackal snickered.
"You sleeping with a guy like me? What are you, a pervert!? That's an invasion of privacy!"
"Hey! It isn't like that! I am not trying to intrude or anything, but I have no choice. I can't go back home for 24 hours."
"Are you serious? Oh wait till Sanada and Yukimura hears about this!" laughed marui
Ryoma sweat-dropped. Why did it have to come to this? He turned to see Atobe and Jirou giggling like mad. Jackal was red as a tomato.
"Monkey King! You promised not to laugh at my misfortune!"
"I'm so sorry brat! But that was just too funny!"
"Yeah. Good luck trying to make out with Marui!"
Later that night….
"Why would your father suggest such a thing? Couldn't you have asked that acrobatic freak or his egghead partner?"
"Eiji-sempai is away on vacation with his family, and Oishi-sempai is busy helping people at the hospital so they are cancelled out."
"What about Fuji?"
"Fuji told me to enjoy my night with you and he promised Yukimura to have photos ready after our night is over."
"Damn it! I should have known not to trust those sadists!"
Ryoma kind of felt sorry for the bubble gum freak. "I know, I know. My school is never safe with that tensai around."
Marui sighed and looked at Echizen. "I guess you could spend a night with me, but you have to sleep in the guest bedroom because my bed isn't big enough to fit both of us."
"Thanks, sempai. You won't regret this."
"I am already regretting it now."
"I could probably use a drink of water to quench my thirst."
"Yeah you do need that after lugging those belongings all the way here."
A few minutes later, Marui and Ryoma arrived home and sees his siblings going off their rockers.
"Are your siblings always this crazy?" asked Ryoma
"Ignore them, they are stupid." Said Marui
"Marui, sweetie. Welcome back. Oh I see you brought a guest over." Said his mom.
Ryoma bowed and said, "I am Echizen Ryoma, ma'am. Pleased to meet you." He then shook the woman's hand.
"It's nice to meet you as well. Come in and take a seat and let me take those for you." Said Marui's mom as she slowly took the luggages off Ryoma's hand and settled them down in the music room.
"Your mom is really nice, Marui-sempai."
Marui was blushing like crazy. "Oh please, you should see how strict she is with my obsession of sugary stuff."
"Marui, you should know that too much sweet stuff isn't good for you. Can't risk you having diabetes at your age, you sugar-obsessed freak!"
"Aw mom! Did you have to tell me that? But what am I going to do without the snacks?"
"You will be just fine without them. You need high fiber diets if you are planning to continue tennis." She then turned her attention towards Ryoma. "Would you like something to drink?"
"Sure, water should be fine."
"Of course! I will be right back!"
Ryoma took a seat on the couch and took out his magazine to read for the night while Marui placed the last of his completed assignments in his bag for the week ahead.
"Marui-sempai, we should play some chess together."
"Eh, why me?"
"Because you are good at it?"
"No I'm not!"
"Yes you are!" said his siblings. "Don't tell me you can't defeat your true love!"
"Shut up, you brats!" yelled Marui. "Ryoma and I are just friends, not lovers!"
"Hai Hai! But big brother-bunta, if you can't beat him, you have to kiss him!" said the siblings cheerfully.
"WHAT!? Why you little…." But his brothers have disappeared into their rooms even before Marui could strike them.
"Calm down sempai. I am sure they were just joking."
"Echizen-kun, I swear to god, those guys are seriously getting on my nerves!"
"I know. My father does that to me all the time as well. But still you love them dearly and that's what counts."
"Yeah, you're right. But anyway, let's get started."
"Sure." Ryoma took the cup of water towards Marui's room and started on the chess game.
The game was getting intense. Not even marui could understand how most of his pieces were captured in a single move.
"Boy for a tennis prodigy, you're good."
"Thanks, I guess. I haven't played in such a long time now."
"What will the loser of the game have to do?"
"We could star gaze together till we fall asleep?"
"Good idea."
Once the chess game was over, Ryoma and marui went to the backyard for their night of star gazing. They didn't notice a figure over by the fence.
"Now I have enough photos to share with my boyfriend." Chucked Fuji evilly.
"It sure is a lovely night, isn't it Sempai?"
"Yeah, now I know why it feels so good to have you around."
"So you actually like having me over?"
"Yeah."
"At least now you won't regret telling Yukimura and Sanada about our intimate relationship." Smirked Ryoma.
"Shut up!" said Marui as he playfully noogied the first year.
They both continued laughing until they dozed off to sleep in their respectable rooms.
Monday, at Rikkaidai…
Today was the day that Marui could finally have some peace and quiet until niou and Akaya showed up.
"Marui-sempai! You are in a good mood today. Tell us what happened last night."
"Yes, I hope you found your true love, strawberry."
Marui vein-popped at that remark, "Niou, don't make me punch you. I just happened to spend a night with a friend okay?"
"OHHHHH! Marui has a girlfriend!" laughed Akaya
"Shut up Bakaya!"
"What's this? Marui spent a night with a friend? Very interesting. I believe this friend happens to be Echizen Ryoma, if I am right?" said Yukimura.
Marui nearly jumped at the sight of his buchou. "HOLY MOTHER OF GOD! Mura-huchou Can you not sneak up on me like that!?"
"Gomen Gomen! How was your first night with that boy?"
"He seemed to enjoy it a lot. How did you know it was him?"
"Oh, I have my sources from Fuji because I am the child of god." Said Yukimura.
"Oh my god were you stalking us?"
"Nope, it wasn't me."
Just then Sanada walked over to his teammates. "What are you guys still doing standing around? Hurry up and get changed! Oh and Marui, remind me to look after that brat for you. Thank you for looking after him."
Marui sighed. Never was he going to invite his teammates over to his house ever again.
