NO COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT INTENDED.

A/N: I got tired with the mobile upload, so I forced my very old laptop to wake up and barely function. And though I know I should focus my attention on my upcoming board exam (yes I am quite old and still a HiruMamo fan), I can't stop my brain from escaping into Deimon Devilbats.

sreader-san: Yes it does count as a request. And I did write something for that but I'm still revising it because it is a bit OOC, so please be a bit patient with me.

crecentomoon: It had been a long time, yes indeed. Yeah adult life is running after me now. I'm a bit sad to know that I don't have any allowance for next month now. Hahaha.

A little side note, I am listening to Daughtry right now, not that it had something to do with the story. So please go ahead and enjoy.


"What do you think is his preference anyway?"

Mamori knew she should have been sleeping. It was a Sunday night, more like was a Sunday night. She sighed. Somehow that question kept on running around her head.

It was Sara-chan that asked it during their little get together. It started as one of their normal conversation really. The 3 friends catching up on their college life, love life and social life. Her two friends teasing and trying to make her admit her non-existant feelings towards a certain quarterback. Mamori denying whatever point they are trying to twist. But then out of the blue Sara-chan asked that question.

It would be a complete understatement if someone said that Mamori was taken aback. Of all those 5 years that she had known him, she never did once doubted that he was heterosexual.

"If he still hadn't asked you out yet and he shows no interest in his fangirls then one has to question."

She sighed yet again. She really shouldn't think much about it. It wasn't any of her business. She finally went to sleep.

Except, it was the first thing that crossed her mind when she woke up. So it did sort of bothered her because now she wasn't quiet sure if he was indeed heterosexual.

By morning practice, Mamori found herself observing the subject of her interest more. She wasn't able to gather more information than she already had about him. So she deemed her study inconclusive, for the meantime until afternoon practice.

Afternoon practice had ended hours ago. The two of them were per usual still at the clubroom. Him typing whatever it was that piqued his interest for the day. And her finalizing some data that he had given her earlier that day. When she was done, she gave him the folder.

"Can I ask you something Hiruma-kun?" she asked while she handed him the folder.

"You already are asking." he replied with not even a glance.

"Mou, Hiruma-kun that's not what I was going to ask." she fummed. Seriously sometimes she wondered why she even bother with him.

"Hmmmph" Taking it as a go signal, she opened her mouth.

"What is your sexual preference?"

That question got his attention, his full attention. It was unnerving to gather all his attention to her. She shifted uncomfortably between her legs. He cocked an eyebrow and popped a gum in slow motion. Silence fell over them. She could even hear her wrist watch tick.

"I don't have any fucking manager."

"So you would date someone regardless of their gender?" She really should just have sewn her mouth together. It was none of her business to begin with. She didn't even know why she wanted to know. She just did and so she opened her mouth.

"In case you hit your fucking head manager, I don't fucking date anyone."

"I know but what if…"

"Tche, I don't fucking date nor do I fucking like someone romantically."

"Ohh" It wasn't until she heard him answer that question that she figured she didn't want to hear that from him. She would have preferred if he said he was homosexual. She could have lived with that thought.

"Not like it's any of your fucking business damn Anezaki." He opened his laptop. It didn't even took him that long to go back to whatever it was he was working on.

"What if someone confessed to you? What do you usually say?"

"Go to hell." he answered still occupied with his laptop.

Well that was more like him.

"I"ll be going now then."

"Hmmn"

"Goodbye Hiruma-kun."

"Hmmn"
