----------+---+---+----------

Hikaru turned his head around and a silent exchange passed between the two.

The game was on.

-----+---+---+-----

It had been a week since Mamori had left the Deimon Devil Bats Football Club, which also meant that it had been a week since Mamori had spoken to Hiruma. After all, the only thing between them had been football... right?

Mamori sighed as she sat in her classroom looking out the window. School had already finished but she still had to finish some paperwork for the Disciplinary Committee. Of course since it was after school, football practice was in full swing.

"I wonder if Hiruma is still bullying Sena? I hope Hiruma is giving them enough breaks. Those boys need water! Oh! I hope they kept the clubhouse clean! If they didn't they won't be able to find anything!" Mamori soon enough found herself thinking about the football team. She gasped and shock away the thoughts. "NO! I'm not part of the team anymore!" She started on her work again, but had trouble concentrating. She sighed again.

The door then suddenly opened. "Mamori?" Said girl stood up. "Hikaru? What are you doing here?" Hikaru gave her a sheepish grin as he scratched the back of his head. "I know you told me I didn't have to pick you up today, but I just wanted to see you so bad!" He told her, putting some emphasis on the last part of the sentence. Mamori just laughed, "Well I'm going to finish in a second, so just stay here." She sat back down and resumed her work. Hikaru casually strolled over to her and leaned down. He kissed her cheek lightly, in which Mamori responded with a smile. Suddenly a picture of the Deimon Devil Bats quarterback flashed in her mind. Mamori froze. "What?" she thought. She shook off the picture and went back to work.

In about ten minutes Mamori was finished and packing her things while Hikaru sat in a nearby chair, waiting patiently. She turned to him and smiled, "Okay. Let's go." He happily bounced out of his chair, walked over to her and grabbed her hand. He brought her hand up to his mouth and kissed it lightly. Mamori blushed at his antics, "So more more compassionate than Hiruma..." She froze for a second repeating the thought in her head. The couple began walking out of the school, "No. It's not like we were close or anything..." Mamori thought to herself as she began conversing and laughing with her boyfriend. "...Right?"

-Around the same time Mamori was still in the classroom-

Hiruma sat in a chair typing away at his laptop, blowing bubbles with his gum. Ever since Mamori had left, almost every practice Hiruma would stay in the clubhouse, finishing work that she usually did. A scowl came to his face when he remember his words to her boyfriend last week.

"I won't let you take her."

Hiruma slammed at his enter key. "We'll see about that, fucking boy." He resumed typing until the door opened. Hiruma looked up as he watched Musashi walk in and take a seat near Hiruma. "What the hell are you doing here? Shouldn't you be outside on the field watching over all the fucking brats?" Musahi leaned back, "I left Kurita in charge."

-At the field-

Kurita: Alright everyone! You're all going to try to lift this to improve your strength!

*cue pick-up truck *

Everyone: EHHHH????

-Back to the Clubhouse-

"Che." Hiruma resumed his typing. "You know you can do all this work outside at the field too." Musashi said while taking a glance at Hiruma. "Well maybe I like this place better." Hiruma answered curtly. "You know what I think?" Hiruma merely continued on with his typing. "I think that you're waiting." "For what?" Hiruma snapped as he turned his attention completely to Musashi. "For Mamori." Hiruma stared at him blankly. Musashi stood up, "Either conscientiously or subconsciously, you want her to come back, but you don't know how to tell her so you're just waiting."

Hiruma raised his eyebrows, half in amusement and half in amazement. Hiruma then turned back to his laptop. "Of course I want her back." Musashi was startled at his response, but before he could say anything, Hiruma continued, "Who else can and will do all this work correctly?"

Musashi sighed. "Nevermind. I'm going back outside, feel free to come back out." Hiruma watched as his friend walked out of the clubhouse. He stopped typing.

"Fucking old man."

-Outside the Clubhouse-

Musashi closed the door behind him and sighed. He looked up and say a certain couple walking to the gate, talking and laughing happily. Musashi quickly ran over as fast as he could and called out Mamori's name. She turned around but Hikaru steeped forward and stood in front of her protectively. Musashi stopped in front of him. "This must be Hikaru." He thought to himself. Mamori brought a hand to Hikaru's shoulder. "It's okay. This is Musashi. He's in my grade." (A/N: sorry to interrupt! But does anyone know if Musashi, Mamori, Hiruma, Kurita and anyone else in Year 2 are in the same class?? It would really be helpful if someone told me!! Thank you!) Hikaru froze. "Eh? This guy's our age?" He asked, surprised, while pointing at Musashi. He just chuckled. "Yeah, yeah I look a lot older, don't I? Like Mamori said I'm in her grade and I just need to ask her something." Hikaru obediently steeped aside.

"Mamori." "Yes?" She answered somewhat confused. "Are you really leaving your position as manager? Forever?" "Manager?" Hikaru cut in. Mamori sighed, "Sorry I never told you, but I was the manager of the football team until a little while ago." "Why did you quit?" both boys asked at the same time. Mamori sighed again, "Because I couldn't be a girlfriend and a manager all at the same time." "If you were Hiruma's girlfriend couldn't you do both?" Musashi thought to himself. Hikaru then began laughing which started Mamori and Musashi. Hikaru ruffled Mamori's hair lovingly and looked back over to Musashi. "We'll talk about this tomorrow." He said as he began pulling away a startled Mamori, leaving a very confused Musashi.

-The Next Day-

"Alright everyone to their seats."

Hiruma's class began settling down as the teacher walked in. The man put his books down at his desk, "Alright everyone, we have a new student transferring in today." Whispers began circulating between guys and girls. "Settle down, settle down!" The teacher turned to the door and made a signal for whoever was outside to come in. As soon as the transfer student walked in all the girls began gasping, giggling, and gossiping amongst themselves. Hiruma, who had only been paying attention to his laptop had finally looked up when her heard the ruckus. "Hello everyone! My name is Hikaru Koshiba! Nice to meet you all!"

Hiruma never felt so disgusted in his entire life

-After School-

The clubhouse was bustling as usual with all the guys getting ready for practice. Hiruma sat in his usual spot doing the usual. Suddenly the door opened and he heard everyone gasp. "Mamo-nee!" he heard Suzuna yell. At this he looked up and true enough there she was. Everyone began surrounding her, asking all sorts of questions. She smiled at her friends and felt tears begin to weld up in her eyes. How she missed them all so much. She looked in Hiruma's direction and their eyes met. Mamori stepped back and everyone stopped talking

"I-I've come back to continue being the manager-" Suzuna began jumping up and down and cut Mamori off, "I KNEW IT! I knew you would come back to us!" "But-" Suzuna stopped jumping, "I-it's only on one condition..."

Hikaru stepped out from behind Mamori, "I have to be accepted onto the team."
