A/N: Okay, I know i said "tomorrow" and it's now the "day after tomorrow" but i tried...really...it's just that my two best friends decided to attack my room on Saturday and...and...well, i still don't have a bed, but that's okay. I am operating with a lack of sleep from trying to sleeping on the couch so there may be some ooc-ness...and i apologize for that deeply. I'm truly sorry. THANK YOU yume229, speadee, and rebirthreborn for reviewing!
Disclaimer: I do not, under any circumstance, own Prince of Tennis (or PoT as it is affectionately know as...haha PoT..pot...get it? No?...nevermind...boy do i need some sleep)
Disclaimer The Second: I do not own the amusement park they are in either. I do not claim to have any knowledge of Japanese amusement parks (my only experience being Tokyo Disneyland, which i do not count since it is strictly AMERICAN), so i modeled it after what little knowledge i do have (which would be the Chinese amusement park PearlLand in Zhu Hai, Guang Dong, China.)
A/N...Again: I actually finished this part before i even posted Chapter 1. It was supposed to be longer, but at the last minute i cut last part off and made it into a third chapter.
"So why exactly are we waiting?"
"Oishi's coming, nya!"
Eiji and Fuji stood just inside the amusement park next to the fountain and giant figurines of the theme park mascots. Families made up a majority of the guests but couples and even just groups of friends could be seen enjoying themselves as well.
"You didn't mention anyone else coming."
"Well…"
"Is it just Oishi? Or are there more people?"
"Well…" Eiji was getting a little nervous. He hoped Oishi would get here soon with Tezuka. Otherwise Eiji would crack under Fuji's intense interrogation.
~0~
Oishi never told Tezuka where they were going. "It's…it's a surprise," he would say. Tezuka didn't really press the issue, assuming whatever it was couldn't be bad for the team.
Now, he wasn't so sure. What could the tennis team possibly gain from going to an amusement park? He couldn't say anything now, though. Oishi had already bought him a ticket to go in.
~0~
"Oishi!" Eiji waved vigorously in case the other boy somehow missed him. Eiji and Fuji could see Tezuka trudging along behind his doubles partner.
"Eiji?"
"Y-yes, Fuji?"
"Why is Tezuka here?"
"N-n-no reason. We thought it would be more fun if we brought Tezuka along."
"More fun? With Tezuka?" Fuji was amused in spite of himself. Imagine that, Tezuka making this outing more fun. It wasn't hard to figure out just what Eiji was up to. He had to applaud Eiji for making it this far.
~0~
"Oishi!" Oishi and Tezuka could see Eiji waving his arms around so they would be able to find him.
When Tezuka saw Kikumaru, he couldn't help but think about what he had overheard earlier that week. It brought a barely noticeable blush to his cheeks and he was grateful Oishi wasn't looking his way or he would have had to explain. He didn't think he would be able to tell them he had overheard their conversation. Tezuka was not one to eavesdrop.
~0~
"Now that everyone is here, let's go, nya~!"
Tezuka raised an eyebrow. Everyone? He discretely scanned their immediate area, but noticed no one else from the team.
"Something wrong, Tezuka?"
Tezuka nearly jumped at the sound of the Tensai's voice. Turning around, he saw Fuji smiling up at him. It was one of his 'I-know-something-you-don't-know' smiles. At first, Tezuka was a little relieved that Fuji was there. Then at least he wasn't alone at the amusement park with Seigaku's newest couple, he'd have Fuji. But when that thought truly registered in his mind, he was horrified. He was stuck at the amusement park with Seigaku's newest couple and Fuji.
Tezuka could hear Fuji's soft chuckle and noticed out of the corner of his eye the very excited stare Kikumaru and was giving him.
Kikumaru pulled Oishi away, shouting, "Hoi, hoi! Let's go!"
A/N: Please Review! Much Appreciated! Any would do, really. Just please let me know what you think...or i might just assume the worst.
EDIT: I might take a little longer for the next chapter...I originally had it written out, but then i decided to rewrite the whole thing and extend it to over 3 Chapters...
