Fukai had now recovered from her illness. She reached school and just sort of hung around her classroom since she wasn't much in the mood to talk to anybody. She also wasn't looking forward to this afternoon because it would be her first tennis lesson from Tezuka.

It was now after school and Fukai was at the tennis court she was told to be and waiting for Tezuka to arrive. When he did she walked over to him. He was rolling a cart of tennis balls and trying not to drop his bag.

"Need some help?" Fukai asked him, she grabbed his bag and set it down next to hers.

"Thanks," he said as he pulled out a few tennis balls and grabbed his racket.

"First I'm going to teach you how to swing the racket properly," he said.

Fukai absorbed as much of her lesson as she could. She eventually had to leave because of dance. She rushed off with a wave to Tezuka and was out of sight.

That night all the Seigaku Regulars were at Mr. Toreina's house talking about tennis stuff. But being teenaged boys, the subject somehow switched.

"So does Fukai keep a dairy?" asked Eiji.

"Why would you ask that?" asked Ryoma.

"Because almost all girls spill their secrets in one," said Eiji. Everything went quiet. Mr. Toreina was no longer in the room so he couldn't stop them from going up stairs and into Fukai's room.

"Now if I were Fukai where would I keep my diary?" asked Eiji to himself.

"First of all she would probably call it a journal," said Fuji.

"This is wrong," said Taka.

"No it isn't," said Momo looking around the room.

"Argh where could it be?" asked Momo after they looked through the entire room. Tezuka then nudged Oishi who was next to him. They both looked to their left and saw on her book shelf a black book with 'Journal' written on the spine.

"Perhaps you should have looked more closely," said Oishi pointing to it.

"Aheh heh I knew that," said Momo as Eiji grabbed it.

"No you didn't," said Kaidoh.

"Don't start," said Ryoma.

"Where do we start?" asked Eiji looking through the Journal.

"Let's read all of it and see how far we get till she comes home," said Fuji.

"Good idea," said Momo and they all looked at the first page.

i 'I'm in Germany with Tezuka and it's weird. I've never been out of Japan before so this is all new to me. I don't what all to write . . . ah good he's done, we were going to go out to dinner.' /i

"You went out to i dinner /i with her?" asked Eiji looking as Tezuka. He just shrugged and continued reading.

i 'I finally got a chance to write in this, and I thought all I was going to do was sleep on this flight. Well I'm going back home, the clinic was dumbfounded when it came to curing me. Well I'm somewhat happy to be going home. I'm a tad afraid how the team will act when I get back without a cure or Tezuka. Oh well, I'm going to sleep, ugh that is the one thing I hate about these Seigaku jackets is that they aren't the warmest things.' /i

"She has a point about the jackets," said Momo.

"Just go to the next page," said Kaidoh.

i 'What fun I got to meet all of the regulars' tennis friends. Some were nice like Aoi and Saeki, some bugged me like Sengoku and Atobe, and some just freaked me out like Ibu (wouldn't stop muttering) and Kabaji (you have to see him to understand). My favorite, though, was An. She was cool, we spent the day talking. They even attempted to teach me how to play tennis. Keyword: attempted. I'm going to rest now.' /i

"She wasn't that bad at tennis," said Taka.

"Don't kid yourself," said Ryoma as they flipped to the next page.

i 'Holy crap a lot has happened since I last wrote in here. My dad showed up. u my real dad /u . He tried to finish what he started (if you know what I mean). He slipped away when he appeared at my house, but the second time I was walking on the street when he pulled me into an ally way and Momo, Kaidoh, and Eiji noticed me and called the police. So he was caught and we went to court the next day. And he spilled the truth and is now in jail. And guess how else appeared. Tezuka! I was shocked and we had a party that night with all of our friends. A lot happened, mainly today. Also this coming weekend we will be going camping so I won't be able to write for a while.' /i

"That was scary," said Fuji.

"Yea I'm still glad she is all right," said Oishi.

"Next entry," said Ryoma.

i 'We went camping and it was fun. I mainly stayed with Tezuka because I think the others were getting too much fresh air. But now a new thing has come up. My dad got a invitation for the team to go and my dad told me to go after I told him my opinion on the whole thing. I had a bad feeling about it. But did these men listen to me? No, I just hope no one gets hurt. /i

"She never knew it was her that would get hurt," said Oishi.

"The whole thing was unfair to her," said Tezuka.

"It was," said Eiji and they turned the page.

i My father was kind enough to bring my Journal to the hospital for me. I never knew that it would ME that got hurt on the cruise ship. But I was and now I'm in the hospital. Everyone visits me a lot and when they aren't here I have my new Ryoma bear to keep me company. Well I should be out of the hospital soon but it can't come soon enough unfortunately. /i

"Okay," said Momo and they went to the next page.

i You would not believe this. The guys all formed a 'super band' called The Band of Princes. I discovered their secret when I went to Atobe's house and heard them practicing. Then they got to do a concert which was a big success (I got to open for them) I had a great time with it. Now I'm sitting on a airplane heading for San Jose, California for a Battle of the Bands. I heard about some other bands that were good. Like Insert Name Here was suppose to be good, I guess we will have to wait to see. /i

"I'm glad she had a good time," said Taka.

i Okay Insert Name Here is a scary group and we never got to find out what they were. Two girls had ears and tails. One girl named Kuro had fangs and could read out minds. And one of the guys had a demented hand. Yes very scary. We lost the battle to their band but we had a good time. /i

"They were scary," said Ryoma.

i Guess what the guys tried today. They tried to get me and Tezuka together. They failed and we tricked them by acting as if we were together. We fooled them so much it was funny. But to be honest I do like Tezuka. I mean he is nice, caring when the time calls for it (not all the time like Oishi) and he is incredibly handsome. And another thing, they all found out that I joined dance. I didn't write it in here because I forgot but I did join and I'm not too bad. We have my first performance coming up and I can't wait. /i

"She likes you!" said Momo pointing at Tezuka.

"That's great," said Oishi.

"Yes it is. How are you going to respond?" asked Eiji.

"Eiji, it Tezuka said something Fukai would know we read her Journal," said Fuji.

"Who cares she said she likes Tezuka and he likes her just get with her already," said Momo.

"There's one entry left," said Ryoma pointing to it. They were about to read it when they heard the front door open and close.

"Dad?" called Fukai from down stairs.

"In the kitchen," he said and her footsteps lead to the kitchen. The guys quickly put the journal back on the shelf and went down the stairs and walked into the living acting like they were there the whole time. Fukai then came out of the kitchen and walked over to her bag which was by the opening of the living room.

"What are you doing here?" asked Fukai looking at them.

"Your dad invited us over," said Fuji.

"Really? Why?" asked Fukai confused.

"Don't know, but we don't care you guys have a bigger TV," said Ryoma turning it on. Fukai just rolled her eyes and walked up to her room. She out her bag in her closet and changed into some comfortable pants and threw a sweatshirt on. She then walked downstairs and sat in the living room on the couch next to Tezuka and Fuji.

They all went silent and looked at Fukai except for Tezuka. Fukai just stared at the TV trying to ignore the looks they were giving her.

"Alright what do you want?" she asked a little peeved.

"Nothing," they all said and looked back at the TV. Fukai gave all of them a strange look and went back to looking at the TV. Then she gave them another funny look for they were watching PGSM (pretty guardian sailor moon A/N: It is really good you can watch it on YouTube just type 'PGSM act 1' into the search and it should come up).

"Now this is amusing. A bunch of tennis freaks watching Sailor Moon," laughed Fukai. Her dad was walking by then and heard he started laughing too.

"All right changing the channel," said Momo as he grabbed the remote and started flipping through the channels.

"Wait stop!" cried Eiji and Momo went back to the previous channel. It was a music channel and the Chocolates were singing their newest single.

"Oh brother," said Fukai and she got up and went into the kitchen to escape the fanboy.
