DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN PRINCE OF TENNIS. IT ALL BELONGS TO MAN NAMED TAKESHI KONOMI.
Yuki sighed heavily, he was surely stressed with everything he had. He was drowning with work with no break at all. Well, what do you expect from a medical student. He wanted to be with Sakuno so badly, It's been 3 days since he last saw her. Sure, they manage to call each other daily but for him it wasn't enough. He was currently taking rounds at the hospital for almost an hour. He needed to complete his trainings before going to Dubai and attend a seminar and then take the final exams. After, it would only be a week till his graduation. He haven't even told Sakuno about going Dubai. Not that she would mind, he just needed to inform her. He glanced at his watch and it indicate that it was already 11:45 and his tummy was grumbling.
"Dr. Yukimura you're needed at the X-ray room" the nurse dreamily said to him.
"Ok, Thanks" he gently said to the nurse which made the nurse's day complete.
Sakuno was on her way to Tokyo Medical Hospital to bring Yukimura a bento. She didn't informed him cause she wanted to surprise him. She decided to bring him lunch cause for the past days whenever he was calling her, he sounded so tired and worn out. So she wanted to help and support him by bringing him a packed lunch. But there was one problem, She wasn't so sure were the said hospital is... It will be her first time visiting him. Not that she was not allowed to, she just doesn't want to disturb him. After 15 minutes of figuring her way to her destination, she finally arrived at the hospital where Yuki was working. After entering the hospital, she had another problem... Where will she find Yuki? That hospital was the biggest one in Japan! After 5 minutes of wandering around, she concluded that it would be best to ask for help.
The nurses in the nurse station was all wishing for one thing... Seichi Yukimura. Since the fateful day, the said intern started his training there. The nurses all have a hard time concentrating in their work. Not because he was not good, it was because he's so distractively handsome, dreamy and ever so gentle. The nurses were talking or gossiping about the said intern.
"Isn't he soooo HANDSOME!" the nurse exclaimed.
"YEAH! I know right! I want him for myself... KYAA!" the other nurse hoped while blushing.
"Me too. But I heard he already had a girlfriend" the other nurse said.
"And where the hell did you get that?" then first nurse asked, a little pissed.
"Well, One time Kisa tried to flirt with him. But, he said that he already had a girl" the nurse replied.
"Really? I don't think so. Maybe he was just bluffing to avoid Kisa. Maybe he doesn't like her. Maybe he likes me..." the girl cheekily said.
"My Gosh Mia! Don't be delusional! He won't fall for you.. He's already fallen for me" the other nurse replied.
"Hm As if! Wait, there's a girl over there maybe she needs something" the other nurse said while approaching the said girl.
Sakuno decided to ask for help in finding Yuki at the nearest nurse station. As soon as she spotted one she quickly approached it. The nurses were kind of busy chatting with each other so she hesitated a little to disturb them when the nurse already noticed her and was already walking towards her.
"Yes?" the nurse asked.
"E-eto. Can you help me find Dr. Yukimura?" Sakuno asked with her sweet voice.
"Mh? Do you have an appointment with him?"
"Ah no. I'm just wondering if I could see him" she said.
"O-ok" the nurse unsurely replied. She phoned the X-ray room where Yuki was supposed to be.
"Hello? This is station 3. May I speak with Dr. Yukimura?" the nurse said to the other line.
"Sure" was the other guy's reply before he called Yukimura.
"Hello?" he asked with his gentle voice.
"U-uhm Doctor someone here wanted to see you" she said in a flirty manner.
"Who?"
The nurse glances at Sakuno, "Miss, What's your name?" she asked casually.
"Sakuno. Ryuzaki Sakuno" she sweetly said.
"Doctor, She said she's Sakuno Ryuzaki" the nurse said.
An automatic smile appeared on his face, "Tell her, I'll be there in a sec" he said before walking as fast as he can to the station 3.
"He said he'll be here" She nonchalantly informed her before going back to her friends.
"Who is she?" The other nurse asked.
"Sakuno- something." she replied.
"Does he know her?" the other nurse curiously asked.
"Yeah. He's voice was kind of frantic when I mentioned her name" she said.
"Oh. Maybe she's his sister" the other nurse reasoned.
They observed the said girl with scrutinizing eyes. Sure, she was pretty but she just looked so simple. She had her hair down simply with a simple looking dress. The girl looked shy though, maybe she was scared or something. After a minute of observing her, they saw Yukimura walking towards her. What shocked them to no extent was when Yuki scooped her face with his hands and slowly pecked her lips.
After Yukimura broke the kiss, He saw Sakuno blushing shyly and her face was bent down. He knew she was shy and it made him smile. He slowly tilt her chin so that his face can meet hers.
"Seichi not here, it's your work place" she said.
"Okay, I'm sorry. I can't help it" he whispered.
Sakuno can feel the boring stares from the nurses. She slowly tug Yuki's lab coat, "Can we go someplace, over there" she asked.
Yukimura got the reason why she wanted to go somewhere else, but he also knew that if he kissed her, the nurses would stop bothering him further. He smiled at her, "Of course" he said.
He held Sakuno's hands with his and led her to someplace only to leave the nurses in shocked and heartbroken in their places.
Yuki led her to the Hospital's garden where the patients could go walk and get some fresh air. They sat in one of the benches when Sakuno handed him a box neatly tied in a cloth.
"I made lunch for you" she sweetly said.
"Just in time, I'm really hungry" he gleefully said. He immediately unbounded the knot and lift the lid only to be rewarded with his favorites.
"Thank you" he said while kissing her cheek.
"You're welcome" she gladly reply.
Sakuno just watched him as he ate the food happily.
"I know why you did that" she suddenly said.
Yukimura stopped before throwing the food inside his mouth, "What?" he asked her with his mouth full.
Sakuno giggled, she wiped some rice beside his lips, "Why you kissed me" she replied.
"What are you talking about?" he asked.
"Those girls like you" she said amusedly.
Yukimura ignored her then continue eating his bento. "I don't know what you're talking about" he played oblivious.
"Sure you do, I heard Kisa was flirting with you" she said teasingly.
This made Yukimura choke, Sakuno chuckled then stroked his back gently. "Are you ok?" she asked amidst her laughter.
"Where did you hear that?" he asked.
"Well, I heard them talking about you" she said.
After eating his lunch and packing his lunch, Sakuno and Yuki made a decision to stay longer and enjoy each other's company for a while. Yuki entwined his hands with hers, "I'm going to Dubai next week, there's a seminar I need to attend, Do you want to come?" he asked.
"No, I'll just bother you there" Sakuno immediately declined his offer.
"You know that you were never a bother to me, you're more of an inspiration" he said while looking straightly in her eyes.
"Thank you, I'm very flattered. But no, I know you need your time to concentrate. We could always go in a vacation when you're not busy anymore" she said while leaning her head to his shoulder.
"I'd like that" he said while also leaning in her head.
After a couple of minutes, Yukimura went back to his work and Sakuno also went her own way.
A week after, Yuki and Sakuno and some of their friends are in the airport. Today, Yuki was to fly to Dubai to attend some required seminar. Yuki already checked in his luggage and is only waiting for the plane to board. Niou had his arm on Tomoka's shoulder, "Oi Yuki. After your graduation, let's go to a vacation. All of us, including seigaku." He said.
"Stupid, they're no longer seigaku regulars and neither you're rikkai anymore." Tomoka said.
"Then what do you want me to call them?" Niou asked her loud girlfriend.
"Hmp!" was all Tomo answered.
"Man, You're fighting again? Are you two sure you love each other?" Marui Bunta popped his gum.
"Of course" the both of them replied like it's the most obvious thing. Which only made Marui sweat dropped.
"Wait, Yuki? What do you say?" Niou questioned.
Sakuno was having fun just by watching their friends funnily argue like that, They were such an entertainment. Yuki was beside her and her hands were entwined with his just like always.
"Yeah sure, I've been thinking of going in a vacation" Yuki replied Niou's question.
"Me too! I'd like to go!" Tomo squeaked.
"Not so loud" Niou hushed Tomo.
"Sorry" she cheekily said.
"That's great, We'll inform our senpai's then" Sakuno said.
"When was your graduation again?" Marui asked.
"According to my data, It's 1 week and 3 days and 14 hours before his graduation." Yanagi Renji, the data man said.
"Hey, Wait! How did you know? It's his graduation not yours" Bunta exclaimed.
"You really want to know?" Renji insisted.
"No, thank you" was all Marui can say.
"Yyyyhh... You're as freaky as Inui-senpai" Tomo said while having goose bumps.
"I get that a lot" Renji stated.
Their good time were interupted by the announcement, "Passengers of flight 006857 to Dubai please go to gate 21, The plane is now boarding". Yuki stood up and put his hand carry bag to his shoulder.
"It's time for me to go" he said to his friends.
"YO, Don't forget to kiss your girlfriend goodbye! And my souvenir!" Bunta cheered.
Sakuno blush deep red at Marui's statement. "Of course" Yuki said then lowered his head and captured her lips with his.
Tomoka squeaked, "KYAA! Their so sweeeet!". While Niou and Marui wolf whistled.
After their kiss, Sakuno smiled at Yuki and muttered a small, "Ganbatte" to him before she bid him a farewell hug. He would be gone for a good 3 days.
