Summary: Ryoma started walking again then Sakuno followed. 'Sakuno-chan!' 'K-kintarou-kun?' 'Sakuno-chan, would you please be my tutor?' Ryoma's eyes twitched.

Chapter 1: Kintarou's Favor

Practice ended normally for Ryoma. Nothing that interesting or scary happened. That is because his sempai Inui is absent for some reason and they didn't have to drink the 'Penal Tea' if ever they lost a match or something. Tezuka was present and gave them hard training but is pretty normal than Inui's plans.

Ryoma ends his practice with a few stretches to cool down. Finally, he came in to the club room to change. He thought that everything would be so normal that his 1st year clubmates would just complain about practice or something. But he was wrong. The boys we're talking about something and not only them, even the other club members are interested about it. Ryoma was about to open the door but his eye twitched.

'Hey! Did you see Kintarou Tooyama of Shintenhoji? He's waiting there outside.' His 1st year club mate said.

'Yeah! He even talked to me.' Horio bragged about it.

'Eh? Why? What did he ask?' the others said.

'According to my 2 years tennis experience…' he started.

'Alright, we'll go now.' His club mates said heading to the door.

'Alright, alright I'll tell you. He was looking for Ryuzaki-san.' Horio said.

Once again Ryoma's eyes twitched.

Why do I even care.. he thought

'Obaa-chan, you're looking for me?' Sakuno said.

'Yes. Would you please bring this to Ryoma. Inui handed it to me yesterday. He said Ryoma wanted it.' Sumire said. Sakuno took the envelope.

'Ah.. h-hai obaa-chan.' Sakuno said then left her grandmother's office.

'Where could Ryoma-kun be?' Sakuno thought.

Then she saw a can of cola and that gave her the idea.

Ryoma is sitting on a bench drinking his Ponta, which is pretty much a daily routine for him.

He felt someone's presence. He looked at her.

'A-anou.. Ryoma-kun. Obaa-chan asked me to give this to you. She said it's from Inui-sempai.' Sakuno then handed the envelope to Ryoma.

Ryoma was concentrating on the material.

'Ah.. anou.. I-I'll g-go now R-ryoma-kun. S-see you t-tomorrow.' Sakuno said as she turned back with a slight frown on her face.

'He was looking for Ryuzaki-san.' Horio's words kept repeating on Ryoma's mind.

Ryoma stood from the bench then grabbed Sakuno's wrist.

'Eh? R-ryoma-kun?' this was all Sakuno could say with shock.

Ryoma didn't respond.

'W-where are we going?' Sakuno asked nervously forming a blush on her cheeks.

'I'll walk you home.' Ryoma said plainly.

'But, anou I-I can walk by myself. I'm used to doing this.' Sakuno said with the same tone and with a brighter shade of red on her cheeks.

Ryoma didn't respond once again.

Sakuno just sighed but smiled a bit.

Ryoma didn't notice but his hand was holding Sakuno's hand not her wrist.

'Soft hands..' he thought.

'R-ryoma-kun..' Sakuno said with a more nervous tone.

Ryoma let go of her hand.

'Sorry.' He said coolly and lowered his cap to hide a faint blush on his cheeks.

Ryoma started walking again and Sakuno followed.

'Sakuno-chan!' a cheerful yet familiar voice called.

'K-kintarou-kun?'

'Hello. Oh Koshimae is with you. Ugh anyway, Sakuno-chan, would you please be my tutor?' Kintarou said with his hands on a prayer position asking Sakuno.

Ryoma's eye twitched once again.
