A/N: hey people… this is going to be a collection of oneshots where Kagome is paired with someone from PoT and they get together on the male's birthday. This first one is a KagomeMarui pairing. I've been meaning to write this for quite a while but I couldn't get any ideas for it so I'm writing it like this k??
In this Kagome is the manager to the Rikkaidai tennis club along with being an amazing tennis player. Its Marui's birthday and Kagome has a gift for him. She has had a crush on Marui since she entered the school but since she's a girl, she's a bit shy to confess her feelings to him. He loves her back but doesn't know how to tell her. In this fic, Yukimura has been cured and is training the team as their captain (duh!). Apart from that Kagome is like a sister figure to most of the regulars so they may be OOC.
That was just a small summary of what's to come. So, if you don't want to read it, you can press the back button and ignore this…or else you can read and review this … Also, please suggest who you want Kags to be paired with for the next oneshot in this collection……
Warning: the characters may be OOC and the descriptions will be vague. It's set in the PoT universe. You can check out Marui's profile in if you want. So…. Enjoy!!!!

It was 20th of April and it was a special day- it was Bunta Marui's birthday. He had received a lot of presents but the one who he wanted a present from the most had just said that she'll give it to him later. And he was waiting for it anxiously wondering what his secret crush was going to give him.
Classes had ended and the Rikkaidai tennis club regulars were just about to start practicing for the upcoming tournament. They all were gathered in the courts, having changed into their tennis club uniforms.
"Where is Kagome-chan?" Akaya Kirihara, a 2nd year with curly black hair and emerald green eyes, asked, looking all around the court for their manager cum friend. The others looked around as well, wanting to see their friend since very few of them could see her during the day.
Seiichi Yukimura, the dark-blue haired, indigo-eyed 3rd year captain of the team, looked at Niou and Marui questioningly since Kagome was their classmate. The two boys looked at each other before Masaharu Niou, a silver-haired, green-eyed 3rd year regular, stepped forward and answered, "Kagome-chan said she had some work and would join us soon, buchou (captain)"
Yukimura smiled his usual smile and nodded before ordering everyone to start practice. Before they did, however, everyone noticed with a smile, as their net specialist, Bunta Marui, a boy with red hair and grey eyes who was chewing on a bubble gum, looked at the entrance to the courts as though waiting for someone to come.
They all knew about the secret feelings their net specialist and manager had for each other. They also knew which gift Kagome Higurashi, their manager, was going to give to Marui since she'd asked them to keep it a secret.
They waited for a little while before Marui sighed softly and moved to the court still glancing at the entrance to the courts occasionally. They held in their chuckles and made to start practicing, only to stop in their tracks when Kagome entered the court, holding a white box in a plastic bag.
Knowing that there will probably be a delay in practice now, the regulars made their way towards Kagome. Kagome's long blue-hued raven black hair flew behind her gracefully as she stood, dressed in the Rikkaidai Fuzoku uniform. The uniform outlined all her curves and revealed no more skin than necessary, unlike the uniforms of the other girls of their school. Her bangs framed her heart-shaped face highlighting her fair complexion. Her pouty pink lips were curled up in a sweet smile and her gorgeous sapphire blue eyes shone with compassion and respect as she looked around at all the regulars.
Her smile softened a bit more when her sapphire orbs landed on Marui. She really did love him and had decided to confess her feelings for him as his birthday present on this day. She just hoped he loved her back.
She walked forward, the smile still present on her lips as the others made their way so as to meet her half-way.
Stopping in front of them, Kagome looked at all of them and said, "I won't be able to attend practice today, Yukimura-kun. I have an errand to run."
"Alright Kagome-chan." He replied, knowing that Kagome must have a valid reason for skipping practice that day. You see, Kagome never skipped practice; she was a naturally hard-worker and inspired everyone around her to do the same, she came to practice and attended classes even when she was running a fever once.
She smiled in thanks and turned to the birthday boy of the group. Walking over to him, she leaned in and planted a gentle kiss on his cheek before pulling away and saying, "Happy birthday, Marui-kun." she held out her gift to him, which he took happily, a bit surprised at the kiss on the cheek he received from his crush.
With that, Kagome bid her friends goodbye and walked away, out of the courts, heading towards the student council room in order to finish with the work she had to do.
Marui looked after her retreating form and then looked down at the gift in his hands. Walking over to the nearby bench, he pulled the box out of the bag and carefully opened it.
His eyes widened when he looked inside it, at his gift. There was a delicious looking plum cake in the box. Soft white icing surrounded it on all sides and the top was decorated with fresh strawberries. Though the cake wasn't what surprised him, Kagome used to get her hand-made cakes, pastries and juices for them all a lot.
It was what was written on the icing of the cake that surprised him. On the cake, with chocolate icing, in Kagome's fancy, curvy handwriting was written, 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY MARUI-KUN' under that was written 'I LOVE YOU' followed by her name at the very bottom.
Eyes widened, his lips spread into a huge smile as the words on the cake registered in his head. Closing the box, he gently set it to the side and looked up at their team captain silently asking his permission if he could be excused for a while. Seeing the smiles on the regulars' faces, he realized they knew about his and Kagome's feeling for each other and before any of them could say anything, Marui stood up and ran in the direction where Kagome had disappeared.
The regulars chuckled softly or smiled before heading over to the courts to start practicing again.
With Marui, he ran all the way to the student council room, happily thinking about what he was going to say to Kagome when he saw her. His mind was made up- Kagome would be his from this day forth and to hell with what everyone else (their fanpeople actually) said about it.
Within minutes he was outside the student council room, panting softly from all his running. He knocked gently on the door and waited for Kagome's sweet voice to give him permission to enter. He closed his eyes when she gave him the permission he wanted, enjoying the sweetness of her voice, before opening his eyes again and entering into the room.
He stopped in his tracks at the amazing scene she made. Standing near the desk, reading through some papers, a pencil in one delicate-looking hand, half of her raven waterfall of hair clipped up to stop it from bothering her while working, she looked to be the epitome of beauty.
When no sound came from the person who entered the room, Kagome looked up from her papers and smiled softly when she noticed who it was who had entered the room.
Placing the papers and pencil on the desk, she walked over to him gracefully, happy that he felt the same towards her as she did about him. She could see his happiness at her confession in his grey orbs. She knew he wanted someone to call him a prodigy and he worked really hard for it too.
It hadn't taken her long to realize that everyone in the Rikkaidai tennis team were prodigies in their own way and deserved the nicknames they were given. She hadn't realized when and how she had fallen for Marui; in fact she was scared when she did realize her feelings for him, having been in a bad relationship in the past.
But soon enough, the other regulars told her that he may have started to like her too. They gave her hints that he loved her back, and she was happy about that. So, on this day she had decided to confess her feelings for him in this way. She had spent a lot of time the previous night making and decorating the cake perfectly for him. At school, she had kept it in the home-ec room's refrigerator, having told the teacher what it was for.
The other regulars had helped her decide what gift she should give him for his birthday and had agreed whole heartedly when she told them about her gift to him.
Now, getting back to the present, Kagome looked at her crush wondering if he was going to say anything. Finally, after staring at her for about 5 minutes, Marui said, "I love you too, Kagome-chan."
Kagome smiled and walked the rest of the way to him before wrapping her arms around him gently. He wrapped his arms around her waist just as gently, hugging her back for all he was worth. Both had soft, content smiles on their faces as they embraced each other.
Marui pulled back a little and smiled down at Kagome, a bit mischievously. "Now I can do this" he said. At her confused look, he bent his neck a bit and gently placed his lips against her soft, pink ones in a loving kiss.
Kagome gasped in surprise which gave him the opportunity to deepen the kiss by pushing his tongue inside her mouth and exploring all its nooks and crannies. Kagome gave herself up to his kiss completely and closed her eyes, loving the way his arms gently tightened around her slim waist.
Kagome moaned softly which in turn made him love the kiss more. Her mouth was sweet and warm and seemed to caress his tongue in return for his ministrations.
A few minutes later, the couple pulled back and panted softly, foreheads connected. While they were kissing, Marui had somehow managed to free her hair of the clip and had kept the clip on the nearby table before running his fingers through her silky raven tresses.
There was a soft pink blush on Kagome's cheeks and both of them had their eyes closed. "Be my girlfriend, Kagome-chan" he said to her, eyes still closed. He knew she already was his girlfriend after that kiss but he wanted her to say yes in that sweet calming voice of hers.
Kagome smiled before replying, "Yes, I'd love to."
They pulled back and finally looked at each other's eyes again. Sapphire blue clashed with soft grey as Marui finally said something which warmed Kagome's heart. "Call me by my first name from now on, alright Kagome-chan?" he asked her gently
Kagome smiled and replied with a blush on her cheeks, "Alright, Bunta-kun"
Kagome calling him by his first name, made Marui smile at her contentedly.
"Happy birthday" she said to him, hugging him again as he hugged her back, content to hold her after wanting her as his for so long.
'This is the best birthday gift ever.' He thought to himself as he continued to hug his girlfriend. His girlfriend… he liked the sound of that…
'Finally' they thought to themselves 'we're finally together' they smiled at their thoughts, still in each others arms.
