Summary: Kaitani Riku, even with his Rodeo Drive, he won't be able to escape from the baby blues of one Higurashi Kagome. He'll just have to buck up and bite the bullet; he loved her. Inuyasha Eyeshield 21 Xover.

A/C: I'd consider all my stories, sort of like one-shots. Despite me saying that there will be another chapter, I'll put it under complete because they could stand alone.

Disclaimer: I don't own Eyeshield 21 or Inuyasha, so please don't rub it in.

One Archer

She was unbearably sexy. Those big blue eyes, pouty smile, and nice curvy figure; Riku groaned in near bliss as her clothed perky breasts dragged up his chest until she was settled in his lap with her school seifuku on and a nervous smile.

"I-I hope you'll be gentle with me, Riku-sempai." She said and leaned in with clear intent . . .

Riku instantly sprang up from bed and moved the pillow from his lap to slam down on the alarm clock. He was breathing heavy with a clear furious blush across his cheeks and sporting an evident tent in his sheets. He flopped back on the bed and pulled the pillow across his face and groaned aloud.

"So you've been having this . . .erotic dream with one of your classmates in it?" Kid summarized, tugging the brim of his hat down to get more shade from the blazing sun. "Frankly, I just don't see what the problem is."

They were on the sideline of the football field, sporting their green drawstring shorts, white tees, and their chest protectors for practice. On the field, the team was going through drills.

"It's not so much as a problem. . ." Riku trailed off, his sixth sense was tingling, telling him that she was nearby. He looked around him, and spotted her near the entrance to gym some 80 yards away. She was wearing her P. E. uniform and every thought thereafter short-circuited. She was wearing her green bloomers and form-fitting white t-shirt, displaying the long expanse of leg, the flare of her hips, and –and . . . wow.

Kid quirked an eyebrow and turned in the direction Riku was staring. His eyebrows rose to his hairline when he saw who it was exactly that made gentlemanly Kaitani Riku into a gaping mess. Higurashi Kagome: first year freshman and making a name for herself in the archery field. His parents had made a big deal out of her because like him, she was a quick draw, but with bows and arrows instead of a pistol and had won the archery championship last year and was the most likely person to win the championship this year too.

"Higurashi Kagome? You like her?" Kid asked despite already knowing the answer.

Riku flinched out of his stupor and his cheeks flushed a delicate pink. "That's the problem." He sighed.

"That you like her?" Kid asked incredulous.

"No, that each time I see her or she's near, I act . . .stupid."

Kid chuckled and without another thought drew her attention to him and beckoned her over with a finger.

Kagome looked around herself and when she saw that no one else was around for her sempai to call, she made her way over.

Riku made a move to jet out of there and if it wasn't for Kid's quick fast grip on his chest protector he would've made it out of there without any embarrassments, as it was, with Kid's harsh tug to bring him back he tripped on his own feet and landed on his butt just as Kagome was four steps away from them.

He blushed a cherry red, inwardly groaned, and threw a furious glare at his quarterback. Kid did a palm's up gesture, "Sorry."

"Kaitani-san, are you okay?" Kagome asked a little worried. She'd heard that American football could be rough and with Kaitani-san's small build . . .she wondered why someone like Riku would join such a violent game and for that matter, how he contributed to the team.

"I reckon that Riku here wouldn't mind being called by his first name by you, Higurashi-san." Kid said, flicking the brim of his hat up to wink at her.

Riku stood up and dusted himself off, looking away with a flush, "Ah, I'm okay. And no, I wouldn't mind it at all if you called me by my first name."

"Okay, Riku-san." She compromised and looked over at the cowboy hat sporting man, "Is there something you wanted Sempai?"

"Just wanted to congratulate you on your match yesterday, heard you beat the competition without breaking a sweat."

"Ah! Thank you," She said with an embarrassed blush on her cheeks. Riku inwardly swooned at the cuteness, but then he focused.

"You had a match yesterday?" Riku furrowed his eyebrow, Kagome was too delicate to be playing in any sports and what if she got hurt?! "What kind of match?"

"I'm in the archery club, and we played against Koigahama Cupids. They were really good as their mascot suggested. I have a feeling we'll be seeing them in the championships." She said with a twinkle in her bright blue eyes.

"Funny, that's who we're playing against tomorrow in the first round of the tournament." Kid mentioned and purposefully nudged the silver-haired boy beside him. 'Invite her!' Kid tried to telepathically send the message but found it to be no use as Riku stayed focused on the girl in front of them.

"Well, then kick their butts, ne?" Kagome winked and laughed, "It'd be pretty cool if both our teams won against Koigahama."

"Will do."

"Anyway, I got to get going otherwise my sempai will get mad. Good luck on tomorrows match and I'll see you guys around." She turned and trotted back to the building.

Kid sighed and with a quick snap smacked the back of Riku's head, "Go and invite her to watch our game." He intoned and shoved the boy into action, 'Honestly. . .'

But he had to admit that it was pretty funny to watch the kid stumble and blush like an idiot in front of her. It was a nice change of pace.

One Football Player

He was running late to the game and Kagome was there to watch them, talk about having horrible luck!

He ran faster, knowing that if he went at this pace he'd make it there with seven minutes left in the game. Maybe.

But he knew that coach wouldn't be so forgiving and he'd make him do 100 laps around the school campus as punishment. Riku groaned, why couldn't he make it on time for once?!

He really wanted to impress her with his skill. His speed was up there with the other top dogs and he just really wanted to show her what he could do.

The Koigahama campus was coming into view and he could make it! He pulled into the boy's restroom and quickly changed into his uniform, dancing around trying to tug his pants up and pull down his jersey on at the same time. He zipped out of there, lugging his bag across his shoulder and helmet in his hand.

When he took a step onto the football field he heard a roar of the crowd as Seibu made yet another touchdown with Tetsuma's amazing run, even as two of Koigahama's men had their arms wrapped around his torso and were trying to futilely stop his run, he'd stayed true to his 'tracks' and made what had to be the 16th touchdown of the game. Bringing the total up to 125 points vs. 10 points, Wild Gunmen leading.

The Cupids were pulling a time out and Riku quickly strode up behind his coach, wincing as his coach did his cowboy strut and shot rounds in the air. "We'll get there boys! 75 more points to go toward our goal of 200! Can't let Oujou and Deimon lead in the scoring battle!"

Riku refrained from rolling his eyes.

"Ah! Riku!" The coach finally noticed his speedy runner, "You're in after this time-out is over! With your speed, we'll surely"- His attention was drawn back to the field as the referee blew his whistle and called the game over; the Cupids had forfeited the game.

Riku stepped closer to Kid as the coach went berserk.

"WHAAT?! How could they just"-

Kid pulled his helmet off and took a bottled water from their team manager, taking a nice big swig as he watched his coach's actions in bemusement. He looked down with a disinterested raised eyebrow at the white-haired shorty.

"You do realize that Higurashi-san was expecting to see you play?" He asked, glancing up at the stands.

Riku sighed and mumbled into his hand, 'If I hadn't overslept . . .'

"She's up there in the stands, five rows up." He nodded his head in the direction. Riku looked up and searched, immediately flushing as his gaze caught hers and she gave him a smile and a two-fingered wave. He waved back with a grin.

Kid sighed in exasperation as their coach got a little more vocal and looked about ready to have the referee at gun-point to make the other team play, "Tetsuma, stop him."

There was a grunt of affirmation and some scuffling before the coach was restrained, but not silenced.

"Make them PLAY! We still haven't gotten to 200 points! Chhiiyyyaaa!" He shouted, firing agitated shots up in the air.

"Maybe you should make it up to her?" Kid grinned, "Treat her to a nice date and all."

His green eyes bright, Riku smiled. "I will."

A/C: The summary was so last minute, that I got a little freaked out at how it came out. You could totally tell, right? Umm .. .there's one more chapter to "Football Dreams" that I have.

Honestly, I don't know how I even thought of RikuKagome as a pairing. It just . . .happened. It's probably because of Riku's character and personality. Or it could be that I love silver-haired guys being paired up with Kagome? Sesshomaru, Kakashi, Riku . . . who will be next?? ;D
