Chapter 10- Uncomfortable Encounters

"She hits! And she wins! Sakaguchi Misaki has won the Tennis Singles Final Tournament!" Ryosuke teases as he misses the ball. I playfully roll my eyes.

"Shut up, Ryosuke!" I tease.

"What? I'm just trying to motivate you for your Olympic dreams!" he laughs, running his fingers through his orange-bleached hair, mischief glinting in his brown eyes.. I give him a light punch on the arm.

"Really?" I ask. "Oh, how are things going between you and Takumi?"

"Things are fine," he replies. "My parents love him. They're fine about me being gay, they promised to always support me, no matter what."

"Aw, that's sweet!" I say.

"Yeah. I just have to go to the bathroom, I'll be back." He walks towards the bathroom, leaving me alone in the outdoor tennis court.

I pick up my water bottle, and take a sip of water, thinking about some random things.

"I'm back, Misaki." I suddenly feel chills up my spine as I hear the voice in my ear. I turn around, and to my horror, I see Kaito.

"Wh-What are you doing here?" I ask, trying to keep my voice calm. He steps forward, a lecherous look on his face.

"Well, I'm here to take back what's mine," he says. "You know, I find it a turn-on when I see you in tennis dresses."

"Get away from me, Kaito," I warn. "I'm not an object, I'm a human. Leave me alone and move on."

Suddenly, I'm pinned up against the fence. "Shut up! Stop trying to defy me!" he growls. "Just accept the fact that you belong to me!"

"I do not!" I protest. "Stop trying to persuade me!"

"No. You can either cooperate, or I'll have to use… another way to convince you," he says, his rough hand caressing my face. I shudder from his touch, and from the degrading look.

"Stop touching me!" I protest.

"She said to leave her alone, didn't she?" We turn, and to my relief, I see Kyoya leaning against the fence, the sun reflecting off his glasses in a dangerous glare.

Kaito glares at him. "Stay out of this. How I treat her is none of your business!" he snarls. Kyoya gives him a serious, dark glare.

"Leave her alone, Kaito. She's told me about you, and I think you should leave her alone as she wishes," he deadpans.

"Shut up or I'll break your face, Pretty Boy!" he growls.

"Get your hands off her, or else," Kyoya threatens.

"Or else what? You'll sue me? Nice try," he scoffs. Suddenly, to my surprise, he is kicked off me. Again, to my surprise, I see Honey-senpai kicking him off of me.

"Leave Misa-chan alone," Honey-senpai warns in a threatening tone. Kaito glares at him before storming off in anger. Right then, Mori-senpai, Tamaki, Haruhi, and the twins come up to me.

"Misaki!" Tamaki suddenly calls.

"Daijoubu?" Haruhi asks. I nod.

"I'm fine. But… how did you find me here?" I ask, suddenly becoming paranoid.

"Let's just say I have my ways," Kyoya says, smiling as he adjusts his glasses.

"Misaki!" I turn and see Ryosuke. "Are you okay? What happened?"

"Ah, Ryosuke! I'm okay. It was just Kaito, but my friends here chased him off," I explain.

"Ah, you must be the new friends who Misaki told me about," he says. "I'm Shibasaki Ryosuke of Higashi Public High School, but you can just call me Ryosuke. Nice to meet you." He holds his hand out and the Host Club all politely introduce themselves.

"Oh, Misaki," Kyoya says. "Next week, during the extended holiday, the Host Club is going on a trip to Okinawa, to my family's private beach. We are inviting you to come along."

I widen my eyes in surprise. Okinawa? I've always wanted to go there! I've seen some beautiful pictures of the beaches in Okinawa, and it's apparently the Hawaii of Japan! "Of course! I'd love to come along!" I reply.

Tamaki smiles. "Great! It's settled, then."

I smile excitedly. I can't wait for the trip!
