The next morning, Eiji peered into the classroom before walking in. When he noticed Fuji sitting at his desk, he opened the door and went inside. He slowly made his way over to Fuji. As Eiji let out a sigh, Fuji quickly looked up.

"Good morning, Eiji," Fuji smiled.

"Morning," Eiji bit his lip to make sure he didn't say the wrong thing. "Fuji, are you going to be in school all day?"

"Yes. I don't have another photoshoot until this weekend."

"Then, if you're not busy already, would you please have lunch with me?" he braced himself for rejection.

Fuji softly giggled. "I don't understand you sometimes. Why would you want to have lunch with someone you hate?"

"I'm sorry, Fuji. I shouldn't have said that," Eiji looked out the window. "I think it's best if we talk about it though…everything. That's why I want to have lunch with you today; just the two of us."

"That's fine. At lunch time, I'll wait for you by the trees we used to always eat lunch under."

"Ok," nodding, Eiji left for his seat. As the bell rang and the lesson began, he hoped that time would tick faster. He didn't want to waste a minute he would get alone with Fuji.

As class after class dragged on, Eiji began to grow impatient. Finally, when his class before lunch was dismissed, he yelled in excitement. Running through the hall, he was scolded by the teachers. It didn't matter to him; he wanted to meet up with Fuji as quickly as possible. When he spotted Fuji standing up against a tree, he smiled. To Eiji, Fuji didn't need make-up or fancy clothes to look beautiful; just standing there by himself made Fuji look almost too angelic to imagine.

Fuji waved at Eiji. "It's been awhile since we've had lunch together."

"Yeah," the two of them sat down. "Ever since you became a model, your schedule has become crazy. I rarely even see you at school anymore."

"I know, but I'm starting to get used to getting up early and staying out late."

"It's funny, don't you think?"

"What do you mean?" a confused look formed on Fuji's face.

Eiji played around with his food. "Well, I remember when we saw the ad in your sister's magazine. It was asking for teens to fill it out so they can become the next big model. I thought it would be funny to fill it out and send it in. We both decided to fill it out and decided we'd never get picked anyways."

"I guess we were wrong."

"I wasn't…you were though. I should have known they'd pick you though."

"Why do you say that?"

"You're just model material. You have the gentle smile, the soft face, the slim body, and you'd probably look good in anything. Not me though…I'm nothing special."

"That's not true, Eiji. I think you're cute enough to be a model."

A light shade of red painted Eiji's cheeks. "But I'm not. You were picked and I wasn't. I never expected you to accept it though."

"I wasn't going to at first, but I thought it would be interesting to try."

"But it ruined everything."

"Hmm? Eiji, you're starting to confuse me again," Fuji giggled and started to eat more of his lunch.

Eiji quickly got on his feet. "You were supposed to be there for me. We were doubles partners, but you just abandoned me for stupid modeling."

"It's not like I knew it was going to take up all my time."

"Like you even care about me anyways!"

"You don't need me for anything anyways. You have Oishi to take good care of you."

"What? Oishi is my friend. All he's trying to do is make sure I'm ok while I watch you waste your life."

"Friend? You two looked more like lovers yesterday," Fuji stared up at Eiji with his icy blue eyes.

"Are you stupid, Fuji? As I said, Oishi's just my friend. If he had the time, he would more than love to be my doubles partner again. You on the other hand don't care about anything it seems like. All you ever think about is your modeling," Eiji's face showed his disgust.

Fuji now stood up. "I don't think only about modeling."

"Then why can't you see how jealous I am? Why can't you see that I miss the old Fuji who was always there when I needed help in class or just wanted someone to eat lunch with?"

"Eiji…I ne―"

Eiji placed his hand over his heart. "I don't understand how I can still have these feelings when you've never even noticed how I feel." He kicked over their lunches and pushed Fuji to the ground out of anger. "I hate the person you're becoming! Go back to the old Fuji I wanted to be more than friends with!" Without letting Fuji get a word out, Eiji ran away. He didn't even want to look at Fuji anymore.

"Eiji!" Fuji called after the boy. He looked around and began to clean up the mess that was made. In his heart, Fuji wanted to follow Eiji, but he felt that it would be better to let Eiji calm down first. "Jealous? Old Fuji? More than friends?" Fuji questioned the things that Eiji had said. "Maybe I should start opening my eyes to the things around me. I didn't know Eiji was so hurt from all of this."

Eiji ran through the hallways once again. His vision became blurred as tears began to form. He was so angry at Fuji, but regretted all the things he had said at the same time. Continuing to make his way through the halls, he bumped right into Oishi.

"Eiji, what happened?" Oishi held the boy up.

"I hate him! I hate him so much!" Eiji clenched onto the other boy's shirt. "I hate him."

"Eiji…"

He rested his head on Oishi's shoulder and sobbed more. "Why do I have to love him so much? I want it to go away…I want this feeling to go away…"

"Did you yell at him, Eiji?" Oishi questioned.

"Yes."

"Did you make sure he felt your anger?"

"I pushed him…"

"Did you tell him how you felt?"

Eiji remembered the last thing he had said before running away from Fuji. "I did."

"Then, Fuji will come and make sure you're ok."

"No he won't. He hates me."

"Eiji, he probably just wants you to calm down a little first. You're letting your jealousy get the best of you."

"No," Eiji pushed away from Oishi. "I'm letting my love for him control my life. I let the feelings I have for Fuji out of its cage on accident. It would have been better for everyone if I would just forget about them all together. I should just let Fuji go on with his modeling life, and I'll get on with my…my…whatever I'm going to do."

"I'm not going to stop you from doing what you think is right, but I do hope you'll think things over before making a final decision."

"I will," Eiji looked around the hall and noticed a shorter boy with greenish-blue colored hair. A smile formed on his face. "I think I've got an idea."

"What are you thinking, Eiji?" Oishi looked in the same direction.

"I think Fuji needs a little competition, and I think our old teammate might be the perfect person for the job."

"I don't think dragging more people into this would be a good idea."

"You said you weren't going to stop me from doing what I think is right."

"And you told me you'd think it over first."

Eiji placed his index finger to his lips to show that he was thinking. "Ok! I made my decision. I'm going to get Ochibi to become a model and put Fuji in the dark. Then, I'll have him all to myself again~!"

"But, Eiji…"

The bell rang to signal that the next period was about to begin.

"Oh, I'll get him tomorrow," Eiji clapped his hands together and skipped towards his next class. He was almost too excited about his idea.

"I have a feeling things aren't going to work as he has planned," Oishi sighed and made his way down the hall.

NOTE: Ah, and Ryoma makes his first appearance (sort of). Eiji went from being all happy to angry to happy again…he has issues. Nah! That's just how Eiji is (in this fic at least…). I wonder how Eiji is going to get Ryoma to agree to sign up to become a model (Bribe him with Ponta? Take Karupin hostage?). Oh, and in Eiji's little fit, he kind of admitted that he does indeed like Fuji to…well…Fuji (Duh!).

Ok, another thing…I know that Ryoma isn't as pretty or beautiful or whatever you want to call Fuji. I chose him because I think Ryoma would be the easiest for Eiji to "trick" into becoming a model (and the only person I could think of fitting into the model material category is Tezuka. I don't want to use Tezuka because…well…I just can't see him going along with Eiji's crazy plan.). Of course, I could have mixed students from other schools seeming that they're in high school now…but…still…no. I didn't want to (If you're wondering, the other people I could think of would be Saeki, Atobe, Yukimura, Marui, Oshitari, and possibly Shinji, Kamio, Mukahi, or Kirihara.). Wow…I'm rambling a lot. Sorry, sorry.

Moving on. Thank you for reading. I hope you'll continue to read until the very end. Thank you for all the reviews too~! I really do hope those who are reading this fic are enjoying it (Why would you read it if you didn't enjoy it…?). Before I say anything else and go off with my rambling…I'll just leave now. Thank you~!
