A/N: I've finally posted up this fic! I think I started writing this last year around this time but then I kind of ditched it. But then my friend kept bugging me that I had to finish it and post it up, so now it's finally up. Hope you enjoy it. I just absolutely love Inui/Kaidoh pairings. The couple are my fave in the whole Prince of Tennis series. Please be aware that there will be quite a few lemons in this story as well as the use of certain types of... toys XD. Also, please R&R if you have time afterwards as I'd greatly appreciate it, thanks!

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the PoT characters unfortunately.. sniff (●´ω`●)


Chapter 1: The Plan

"All right everyone, practice is over!" Tezuka shouted.

Loud and happy sighs could be heard throughout the courts as the players of the Seigaku Tennis team packed up their things and started heading towards the boy's change room. The practice had been more harsh and torturous than normal. It had felt like hell but the team knew that they had to practice their best as the quarterfinals were coming up in about 2 weeks. What was worse was that they had been outside baking in the sun for almost 3 hours, their pale skin turning an orange-brown despite wearing loads of sunscreen.

Kaidoh sighed to himself as he packed up his belongings. He was quiet as usual, keeping to himself as everyone went off together to the change room. He didn't really like to converse with everyone because they were all so different from him – bubbly, happy, and outgoing. He usually went to the change room after everyone else had finished and went home.

He got up from where he was sitting on the bench to start to the change room. His muscles ached so much and his entire body felt like it hadn't rested for days. Maybe it was from tennis practice...or maybe something else?

"Kaidoh," a voice behind him said, startling him.

He turned around to face his team captain. "Tezuka-sempai?"

"Do you have go somewhere soon? I just wanted to have a talk with you."

Kaidoh looked at his watch. He had to go soon but he couldn't say no to his team captain. "Sure, sempai, what did you want to talk about?" he asked but looked at his watch again.

Tezuka said, "I was just wondering if everything is okay?"

Kaidoh gave him a weird look. "Err… of course I'd be okay –"

"I mean during practices. These days you seem really tired…and you really aren't showing your best, I know. I was watching you practice today and you can't even do your Boomerang Snake properly, which you normally do quite easily."

"Oh," Kaidoh answered hesitantly. He knew why he didn't perfom as well as he normally would but he couldn't tell that to Tezuka. He would be absolutely furious with him.

'Plus, it was kind of embarrassing to even think about,' he thought to himself, 'No, not kind of, totally embarrassing!'

"Gomen," Kaidoh said after thinking a little bit, "I'm just really…tired these days from staying up all night…studying for tests."

Tezuka gave him a questioning look that told Kaidoh that he didn't believe a word he had just said out of his mouth. "Alright then. I'll take your word for it. You can leave now. See you tomorrow after school."

The younger boy nodded and quickly left as fast as he could, his heart racing. He had a bad feeling that his secret would soon be revealed and that Tezuka would find out that he had lied to him.


"Inui, come in," Tezuka commanded, sitting in his tennis office.

"Hai, Tezuka?" Inui asked when he entered the room to talk to the team captain.

"Do you think you could do me a favour?" Tezuka asked with his usual emotionless face.

Inui laughed and scratched his head. "Err, sure, just as long as it's not too big."

"Well then, I need you to help me investigate…somebody," the team captain continued slowly.

Inui paused, "Investigate…somebody?"

"Kaidoh."

"Kaidoh Kaoru?" Inui asked.

"Hai, Kaidoh…" Tezuka said slowly, "I feel that there is something suspicious about him. He seems to be hiding something that he does during the evening that makes him really tired during the day and during practice as well. And you know, the quarter finals are coming up in two weeks so we need everyone on the team to be performing their best and in tip top shape."

Inui tried to take in what Tezuka had said. "Huh? Doing something in the evening?"

"Yes, I talked to him earlier on today and he seemed like he was in a rush to go somewhere after practice," Tezuka explained, "And he kept looking at his watch when he was talking with me."

Inui pushed his thick black-rimmed glasses back up his nose bridge and opened up his data notebook that he had kept in his breast pocket of his polo shirt. Flipping through the pages, he said, "That's true. His data that I collected over these past weeks shows that he isn't performing as well as he used to be. But how am I supposed to find out what he's hiding?"

When Tezuka didn't reply his question, Inui's eyes widened when it finally hit him what the team captain wanted him to do. "You mean, stalk him?! B-but…t-that's invading his privacy!" he stuttered.

"Please, Inui," Tezuka frowned, "for the sake of the Seigaku team."

When Inui saw the unhappy look on Tezuka 's face, Inui knew he needed to help the team captain for the sake of the rest of the team. After all, it might be a little bit of fun for himself as well. He had recently gained an interested in the younger boy and had watched him constantly over the past few weeks during practice sneakily. He even came early in the morning to hide behind the bushes and watch him practice before school started. He had also noticed that he did not perform as well as he normally did and secretly wanted to know why himself.

"Hai, I'll do it," Inui said finally after a moment of thinking of all the times he had spied on Kaidoh during practice, "For the Seigaku team, of course."

"Good," Tezuka paused, "How about we call it…Project Kaidoh."

Inui nodded as he agreed and left the room. Tezuka smirked at Inui's willingness to stalk the younger boy. He couldn't wait to see what the outcome of this would be.
