Hey everyone! As you can see I'm posting new chapters as soon as I can since I've noticed that it's already Friday in my story so I thought why not finish it instead of discontinuing it, after all there's just three more days before it ends.
So the good news is I'll try to post new chapters again especially now that I have a plot I just hope you like it.
Kirino and Tsurugi were already inside the school campus heading towards the clubroom when someone called out to Kirino behind their back.
"Kirino!" Shindou shouted gaining their attention, Kirino stopped making Tsurugi stopped beside him.
"Good morning Kirino" Shindou greeted as he catch up, standing beside Kirino.
"Good morning Shindou" Kirino greeted back smiling at him.
"Cough! Good morning Shindou-sempai" Tsurugi greeted smiling coldly, looking at him in an irritating face.
"Good morning too Tsurugi" Shindou greeted smiling forcefully at him they glared for a while before turning their heads on opposite direction, the three continued walking towards their club rooms.
As they enter the clubroom some of them look in their direction to see who are the new comers and were shock at what they see. Tsurugi and Shindou entered the room at the same time and that there were no tension surrounding them, as they change clothes some were taking a peek at them and couldn't believe that for once the two are acting civilized around each other and ignoring one another.
And as they started practicing everything is still normal unlike the last time, Shindou is still barking orders but with less tension and concentrates more with helping his teammates improve their movements and techniques, Tsurugi who prefers playing individually plays more openly with his teammates and assists them, all in all everything was returning to normal. Kirino along with some others were stretching on the side lines watching the two teams play it off while they were waiting for their coach who wasn't there yet.
"Looks like everything's resolved between you guys" Kurama stated gaining Kirino's attention, seeing that some of them were watching the play between the two and noticed the change.
"Yeah, you could say it like that" Kirino shrugged and just watched while stretching. The heavy tension was gone and the seriousness of the two on the field weren't that suffocating, and everyone was glad about it.
"Not sounding to be eavesdropping but what happened?" Hamano butted in.
"Nothing really, they just accepted each other's attitude and made a truce" Kirino explained not wanting to into further details less he gets more questions.
"Really? I don't believe it" Hamano stated not believing a word he said as he look at the two.
"It's the truth Hamano believe it or not they'll tolerate each other's presence for the sake of the team" Kirino stated shaking his head at him.
"Shindou I'll believe but Tsurugi? No way" Hamano insisted raising an eyebrow at him.
"Hey, Tsurugi's not that bad. Yes, he could sometimes be mean and cold towards us but he deeply loves soccer just as much as we do if not much more, and besides his changing for the better I mean look his passing the ball towards his teammates and assisting them" Kirino defended focusing on Tsurugi's play.
"Can't deny that fact" Hamano agreed watching Tsurugi's play closely.
"Sometimes people hide their kindness in cold attitudes and harsh words, simply because they don't want to be disappointed by things" Kirino continued as he looked at his teammates who stopped stretching to look at him because of what he just said. Kirino moved his head staring at them one by one in the eyes then his eyes landed on Kariya and lingered longer and gave him a small smile at his direction which in turn making Kariya blush and turn away.
"From the looks of it, you've become pretty close to Tsurugi this past few days" Daichi stated smiling at Kirino, impressed by his words.
"Well… yeah, they opened my eyes as the saying goes 'don't judge a book by its cover' and that's true" looking at Kariya who was staring at him again and smiled which the latter blushed and smiled awkwardly in his direction, Kirino then looked Tsurugi's direction and smiled more.
"Coach!" the managers called as they saw him getting closer to them.
"Sorry for being late you guys, I see that you guys are still focused even when I'm gone" Endou said proudly looking at their determined faces while training.
"Group yourselves into two and since were missing some members the others will not participate" Endou stated looking at his players. Some went into the fields the other's continued stretching or training with the ball.
"I'm glad that everything's all right between you three" Endou said near Kirino as he watched his players in the field.
"Yeah me too I'm glad" Kirino agreed smiling at the two as they play on the field.
"You know Kirino I met a lot of people as I grew up, some were just as mean as Kariya others were just as cruel as Tsurugi but just because they're like that doesn't mean that they don't have kindness in their heart" Endou explained as he remember things from his past.
"Sometimes they just need people to understand them…. Well more precisely people who will accept them for who they are no matter the circumstances" Endou finished and started walking towards the managers, not leaving his eyes off at his players in the field while shouting instructions.
Lunch Time
The hallways were full of students, everyone wanting to get out of the classroom to buy foods in the cafeteria, and some went to look for a spot to eat outside with their friends. There was a particular group of students that were hanging at the rooftop of the school building.
"Sorry were late" Hayami apologized as he, Hamano, and Kurama entered the school's rooftop.
"It's alright" Kirino reassured them, seating along with Shindou, Nishiki, and the other second years.
"Kirino, you're here?!" Hamano said shocked.
"What does that supposed to mean?" Kirino asked raising an eyebrow at him.
"What I mean is that shouldn't you be with Tsurugi?" Hamano questioned.
"Kariya and Shindou talked to him to spend time with the other first years" Kirino answered, as they started eating.
"And he agreed?!" Hamano and Hayami asked in shocked, not believing it.
"Yeah he did" Kirino answered smiling at them.
Flashback
As soon as training ended everyone went inside the clubroom to change but Tsurugi was stopped by Shindou and Kariya. Kirino seeing this went back to them knowing that he will be the subject of their talk.
"They're getting suspiscous" Shindou said.
"They're pressuring me for answers" Kariya said.
"So? Why should I care? Tell them you don't know because I'm sure you really don't know anything" Tsurugi answered, crossing his arm on his chest.
"You think we haven't done that? They haven't stopped asking me even when I told them I don't know anything"
"Look I could careless of what happens in your group, it's the last day already and I am not going to waste it just because the others wouldn't stop prying on you guys" Tsurugi answered irritatingly.
"Listen I –" before Shindou could continue Kirino spoke.
"What's going on here?" Kirino asked looking at the three.
"Nothing" The three answered.
"This two jealous boys wants to lessen my time with you… as always" which made the other two irritated at the accusation.
"For your information I am not jealous. If I am jealous then I shouldn't be saying that I want you to spend time with you and the other first years!" Kariya answered irritatingly.
"Listen I only have two and a half day to be with sempai and I am not going to agree on your selfish wimps!" Tsurugi retorted back.
"You think we don't know that? Look we–" and the three continued bantering at each other which made Kirino irritated at them. If this keeps up they'll be late for their classes.
"Ok guys! Enough! You two go on ahead I'll talk to Tsurugi" Kirino ordered letting the other two go while he and Tsurugi stay to talk.
"Ok what's really wrong?" Kirino asked seriously looking straight at him.
"Tsk! It's the damn whole club they want to split us up!" Tsurugi answered annoyed, while Kirino raised an eyebrow at him in amusement.
"Ok back up, why don't you explain to me what Kariya and Shindou told you?" Kirino asked calmly holding Tsurugi's hand.
"Well Shindou told me that the second years were getting suspicious and the first years want to hang out with me, and I literally don't care what everyone thinks because I only have three more days with you" Tsurugi explained irritatingly.
"Why don't we do it?" Kirino suggested and before Tsurugi could argue Kirino leaned in his face and spoke near his ear.
"Of course there's a reward if you agree" Kirino said in a sultry voice which made Tsurugi shiver unconsciously and his cheeks were tainted with tint red.
"Please" leaning away and looking at him in the eye with mischievousness and Tsurugi nodded not knowing what to do or say.
"Thank you!" Kirino thanked happily wrapping his arms around his neck because of joy and kissed him on the lips.
"We should go class will be starting soon" Kirino said not looking behind him.
So yeah it's super short not really what I intended, anyway hope you guys enjoy this.
