Melody: Wah~ Everyone's graduating~

Shuu-kun: Yep. Here's my second button~

Alya: Well, again with the second button issue~ the second button symoblizes a confession if you give it to a girl, as on a gakuran, it is the closest to your heart, and has all your heart feelings throughout the three years you are in middle school.

Shuu-kun& Melody: Besides this, hurry do the disclaimer!

Alya: Hai~ *pouts * Its the last chapter and still not enough air time for me! Right, Alya does not own any of the great guys here other than Melody~


10 - Graduation, Give Me Your Second Button!

It was Seigaku's graduation day, and the rabid fangirls who want the tennis regulars for their husbands were dashing all about the school tirelessly, chasing after the tennis regulars for their second buttons. To prevent this from happening, Shuu-nii cleverly gave me his gakuran's second button in advance.

A week ago...

We were at home, and we had just finished our morning practice. Sitting down on my study desk, I sighed at the amount of homeworked piled there. We had won the Nationals already, but due to practice, we were excused from school, and therefore the homework piled up.

" Melody, here." Shuu-nii flung me something small.

Catching it, I opened my palm and found a small button with the Seigaku crest over it. Immediately, I knew it was his second button. Rolling it in between my fingers, I mused, " What? Professing your love for me already?"

" Of course," he replied, rolling on his roller chair, coming right infront of me, " It is also to prevent myself from getting chased on my graduation day by my fans that want my second button. Also, I think its better that you safe keep it for me." he pinched my nose.

" Fine," I replied and slipped it into my pocket.

Back to the present...

" Hiiiieeeeee! Melody-chan! Save mee!" Kikumaru-senpai crashed into me, with a horde of girls chasing after him.

" Gomen! I can't!" I said and dodged out of the way.

Walking on, I went on to find Shuu-nii. Finding him in the garden of the school, I noticed that there was a train of girls waiting for him to give their confession letters, and ask for his second button. One by one, he rejected them nicely and showed them that he had given his second button away already.

Rolling his button in between my finger, I grinned. Going to the end of the line, I held my card that I wrote to congratulate him on his graduation in my hands, wanting to give it to him.

When it finally reached my turn, Shuu-nii finally looked up and gave a small laugh. Taking my hand, he made me sit down on the bench beside him. Taking over his card, he stuffed it inside his pocket before asking me, " You came here and lined up just to give me this?"

" Of course not!" I replied, " I spoke with Kaa-san last night. I might be entering Rikkaidai Fuzoku of Hyoutei for my second year of middle school. Since you're entering high school... And Ryoma has gone for America pursuing his tennis career already." I said.

" Sad?" he asked.

" Mm," I nodded.

" I'll wait for you," he said, " To come back to me," he tapped my nose, " You will come back right? And personally, I think its better if you enter Rikkaidai Fuzoku. They might have been our rival, but Rikkaidai on a whole to me is a better choice for you," Shuu-nii advised me.

" Mm..." I nodded again.

" Saa, let's meet up with everyone, and go to Taka-san's sushi shop to have some sushi. I want my wasabi maki already." Shuu-nii got up and pulled me up.

Gathering their certificates, Seigaku tennis team made our way to Kawamura's sushi shop. Upon reaching, we immediately made a toast to the year threes who had graduated. Then, it was time to reveal the new Captain.

" After a long deliberation, Tezuka-kun, Oishi-kun and I decided that Kaidoh should be the next buchou." Ryuuzaki-sensei announced.

" Congrats, Kaidoh Buchou," I shook his hand.

" Omedeto nya!" Kikumaru-senpai glomped the blushing bandana boy.

" What about me?" Momo-senpai asked.

" Vice-captain," Oishi said, " I hope you treat everyone nicely and try not to fight so much with Kaidoh okay?"

" Ahh, ochibi is so mean, going to America alone," Kikumaru-senpai teased.

" He's not the only one going," I said.

" EH?" the entire team asked other than Mitsu-nii, Shuu-nii and Ryoma.

" I'm entering either Rikkaidai or Hyoutei next year." I said.

" EH? You don't want to stay with us?" Momo-senpai asked.

" Well, if you don't have enough regulars, I might consider coming back, but you're planning on making the trio regulars right? There's Arai too. You need just two more. Besides there are also very good players left. And I'm a girl." I said.

" Fujiko! You're okay with this?" Kikumaru-senpai asked.

" Saa," Shuu-nii replied.

" Heh~ Say hi to Kirihara for me," Ryoma said.

" He's not just Kirihara! He's Kirihara Buchou already!" I shot Ryoma a glare.

" That's a shame," Kawamura-senpai said from behind the sushi bar.

" Well, Rikkaidai will accept anyone as long they have the skills. Hyoutei is also good with their training. You have to choose well Melody," Inui-senpai said.

" Besides that, Melody-hime, whose button did you get?" Kikumaru-senpai asked me.

" Shuu-nii's," I replied smoothly.

" He just gave it to you?" Momo-senpai asked.

" Nah, he gave it to me a week ago." I replied.

" For safe keeping," Shuu-nii smiled and popped a wasabi maki into his mouth.

" Its cheating! I was chased around because I didn't give mine to someone for safe keeping?" Kikumaru-senpai groaned.

" Eiji, do you really know the meaning of the second button? You don't just give it to anyone for safe keeping. If you give it to someone, it means that you have feelings for the person." Oishi-senpai explained.

" EH? Fuji-senpai has feelings for Melody-chan?" Momo-senpai asked.

" They're not bethrothed for nothing you know, its like getting engaged already. All they need it a proper marriage and they are husband and wife already." Kaidoh-senpai explained to Momo-senpai.

" Maa, that's how it turned out," Shuu-nii said and cuddled up with me.

" Well, let's forget about that for now. Congrats to the graduates!" Ryuuzaki-sensei said and we made another toast with tea.
