AN ATOBE
Chapter 3 - Outside the Lines
I do not own Prince of Tennis
She said yes. Naya said yes to Oshitari Yuushi's invitation in going out of town for the weekend. She didn't really have much friends in Japan so she figured that going out with new friends wouldn't really hurt. She was informed that Atobe Keigo will be there along with their other tennis team way back in middle school since there is no class for three days.
The resort was beautiful. It was pretty luxurious. It has 5 pools, a massage service, a beautiful white sand beach where you can surf, go banana boating, kayak, jet ski, and parasailing. Naya was just inside her room when a knock startled her as she watched the resort from above. When she opened it, Yuushi was standing along with Atobe. Yuushi looked at her from head to toe.
"Let's go?" She asked.
"Ah—yes." Yuushi smiled, kinda distracted of the fact that she looked so sexy in her dark blue criss-crossed bikinis which she overlapped with a white see-through silk. She also did her hair in a high ponytail.
"I'm ready." She nodded as she went out after she grabbed her beach bag and closed her room. She walked beside Yuushi while Atobe stayed behind them.
He looked at her from head to toe. She has this perfectly toned body. Her waist were so tiny and her ass, well... who wouldn't miss that toned and well-formed ass.
"Are your friends all here now?" She gleefully asked.
"They're waiting for us in the restaurant." Yuushi answered.
Atobe noticed her boobs too. It wasn't that big but it was very sexy? He grinned at himself. It's probably very rude to scrutinized a woman the way he's doing but he's a man and men notice things especially if its a beauty standing in front of them.
The moment they entered the restaurant by the bay, Mukahi called out for Naya. The rest of the boys turned their head and was awe-stricken.
"I didn't really expect to see you with us!" Mukahi said with enthusiasm. "Did Atobe invite you?"
Naya shook her head. "Oshitari did."
"Come, sit!" He gestured Naya to sit with them as Yuushi led her way. They stationed her between Atobe and Oshitari.
Naya then noticed a girl opposite her who was too close with the tall guy who almost had no expression on. Upon seeing her gaze, Yuushi leaned in. "That's Kabaji and his girlfriend, Shoka." The girl was cute. She had topaz eyes and heart shaped face with an M at her hairline. "Why don't you introduce yourselve?" Oshitari told them as he just saw them looking at her.
Shishido Ryo began followed by Choutaro Ohtori and Wakashi Hiyoshi as Kabaji and Jirou (who was sleeping) was just introduced by Oshitari himself.
"I'm Minami Shoka." The girl smiled at her while circling her arm around Kabaji.
The boys asked Naya a few questions and then proceeded with talking about how everything was going on with them. They also told her that once in a while, Atobe who was their captain would once in a while assemble the group and they would bond; so Naya figured that she got invited to the bond that was supposedly for the members alone and their girlfriends (but apparently, only Kabaji has a girlfriend).
Everyone then decided to go to the beach. Shishido, Mukahi and Ohtori decided to do the jet ski. They invited Naya and so she went with them leaving Atobe, Oshitari, Jirou and Kabaji behind with his girlfriend. Hiyoshi on the other hand went to see the people playing beach volley.
"Isn't see adorable?" Yuushi told Atobe as he was sipping his orange juice under the coconut tree while watching Naya from afar as she was chased by the guys in their jet skis.
"Why are you asking me?" Atobe answered as he placed his Gucci sun glasses in his eyes.
"I was just asking." Yuushi said as he sat on that bench chair and leaned back. He was just wondering what Atobe was now thinking as he watch her from afar, knowing that she's there for himself and not for him. Naya attracts him but there's just something about the two of them that he wanted to see. If that's chemistry, he wants to test it. It's his first time to see Atobe Keigo eyeing a woman after all.
When the four came after their jet ski, they we're laughing at each other. It was obvious that they were having fun. Kabaji and his girlfriend were now at the sea, swimming. Yuushi was just looking at them, Jiro was sleeping while Atobe was reading.
"What are you reading?" Naya said as she approached them.
"Aphorisms on Love and Hate by Friedrich Nietzsche." He answered without looking at her.
She neared him and took the book from his hand. She flipped through its pages and read a little. "Can I borrow this after you finish it?"
"We'll see." He answered.
The moment they mentioned Kayak, everybody joined except for Atobe and Jirou (who was sound asleep beside him). The pair was Naya and Yuushi, Shishido and Ohtori, Kabaji and Shoka, Mukahi and Hiyoshi. They raced. Everyone was competitive. Mukahi thought of pushing Shishido and Ohtori's kayak upside down and he succeeded, making Shishido furious. Kabaji wasn't competing so they didn't really mind. Naya was rowing her heart only to be told by Yuushi that they're going in circles. Mukahi and Hiyoshi won. They were then chased by Shishido who was irked by what they did.
After dinner, at around 10pm, everyone decided to just go back to their rooms since they will all go boating early in the morning to see the sunrise and snorkle. They were just very tired too but Naya wasn't. After taking a bath, she changed to that long black and white sundress of hers. She let her hair down and combed it while watching the see from her room. The stars in the night sky was too beautiful from where she is but she knows that it'd be more beautiful if she were to be at the shore, lying on the sand.
The ocean breeze was cold. She was just bringing her slippers as she wanted to feel the sand on her feet. It felt nice. Everything felt beautiful and melancholic. As she was walking around the shore, she noticed that the resort was very vast. From where she was now, there were no more people around compared to that area where the bar was. Suddenly, she saw a man standing from afar with his hands on his pocket. She continued walking. He was just looking at the sea, probably thinking about something that she doesn't really know. But as soon as she drew closer, it resembled someone she knows. It wasn't long when he turned to her direction. Atobe Keigo. She was stopped and they stared at one another.
"Why are you here?" He asked as he returned his gaze to the sea.
"I enjoy walks at the beach." She continued walking, drawing closer to him. "You can't sleep?"
"Maybe." He shrugged but the truth is, he couldn't sleep. He kept thinking. He didn't like how the conversation that he had with Yuushi that one afternoon kept repeating inside his head over and over again.
They stayed side by side. She was looking up at the stars while he was looking at the sea. They didn't say a thing. They just immersed themselves to the quiet and to the beauty that surrounds them. It wasn't long when they both sat down. She was now humming random songs that Atobe noticed to be pieces from European musicians.
"Pie Jesu?" He said as the wind blew.
She turned to him and gently smiled. "Yes." She was amazed that he knew. She couldn't help but notice that he seems to be connecting with her to the things that she likes.
"You seem to like things out of the ordinary." He muttered as he leaned back on his right hand for support.
"How can you tell?" She looked at him, interested on what he had to say.
"You're a lover of the arts. A fan of Picasso, Neruda and to the music that not everyone listens to." He answered.
True. She nodded with a smile. It felt weird to have someone notice the things that makes you so happy. It was as if he could understand her through her likings.
"What if I'm the kind of girl that falls in love with things that falls outside the lines?" She said it without looking at him but the stars.
Poetic. Atobe thought it to be poetic. She was indeed different from the girls that he knows. Out of the ordinary. The kind who would rather step away from the crowd and stay somewhere where her soul finds rests. The kind who will stand on what she believes in even if you will tell her that she's being a bitch.
"You're not like the rest?" He wanted to see her reaction.
She turned to him. "I don't want to be like the rest."
He knew it. He smiled at her then leaned a little closer. She didn't move back. She was just staring at him. He didn't know what's going on but he actually wants to kiss her.
"We can't just kiss every time we want to, Atobe." She mumbled as his face was just inches from hers.
That made him smile (smirk). Her statement actually meant that she acknowledge that she too wants to kiss. "Because you're a Natsume and I'm an Atobe?"
She looked at his blue eyes and are only looking at her. "Probably." She said as she closed the gap between them. He grabbed her with one hand and pulled her closer to him.
She could smell that Armani cologne again and it was too damn sexy. She placed her hands on his shoulders and responded to his kiss. He licked her lower lip and she grasped. The moment she did, he slid his tongue. She smiled then met his tongue with her own. He was gently then became a little bit rough. It wasn't long after her back hit the sand and he was on top her but he propped himself up so as not to smash her. He was now demanding, moving his lips pulling and sucking her. He pulled back then kissed her neck. Naya bit her lower lip as she lifted her neck. She was feeling something around her stomach as he was running his hand on her waist to her bottom.
"Atobe," She managed to say, fighting the urge to moan. He opened his eyes and then slowly lifted his head. He propped himself up once more and looked at her. She was also looking at him with flushed face while heavily breathing.
"Fix yourself." He said as he went off her. "You looked molested."
"Wasn't I?" She retorted as he helped her up.
"It was with consent." He was smirking. She was smiling and shaking her head.
She rolled her eyes and dusted herself. There was something about their encounter. With just small talks about things and next, they're kissing.
The same thing happened the next day too. She was the first one to arrive and minutes after, Keigo did too. They talked about random things then ended up making out.
On the third day, the gang just decided to just chill and have a massage before going home. Naya fell asleep and when she woke up, Shoka had already left her as only the two of them shared a room since they are both girls. She was now alone so she wore her robe and decided to shower. She was on her way to the other room where the shower was when she was pulled by someone inside the sauna.
"How was it?" He whispered as he placed his head on her neck as she was sitting on his lap.
Naya breathe out. "And how did you get here?"
"I entered the door." He sarcastically said, making Naya chuckle.
"You're going to be in trouble for this." She warned him. He was still in his robe too and she could see his chest.
"For what?" He kissed the crook of her neck then dragged his lips up to her jaw, making her bite her lower lip.
"I told you that you can't just kiss me anytime you please." She stood up and faced him.
"And you're telling me that you don't like my kisses?" His gaze tightened.
Shit. Those tantalizing eyes. She sighed and placed her hands on her hips. "Only when I want to." She said as she went out of the sauna, leaving him amused.
The two agreed to go on secret rendevous without attachments. It was obvious that they were both attracted to each other. Having fun with each other's company without making ties. It was safer to define it from the very beginning than have false hopes as to what their relationship is. They're forbidden to be in a relationship after all for she's a Natsume and he's an Atobe; at least no one will know but them.
Author's note: I don't know why but things are flowing inside my head and so I had to let it out. They decided to be in an open relationship now. Open relationships are for people who doesn't want to commit but wants to do things that normal couples in a relationship like making out and etc., except get jealous and prohibit your partner from seeing other men/women. Stay tuned! And I would love to read what you think of my story :) Hoping for a review since I do not have one yet :(
