Title: Mitsui-sempai's Love Potion

Chapter Five

Disclaimer: It's in the first chapter already.


*Is this really the fifth chapter of my fic? Well, I'm not so sure, I haven't written in a long time. Anyway, I decided not to have MitKo because I'm not that good at it (I'm better off writing RuHana) and maybe I'll just do more damage to my fic than I've already done.

*I'm really sorry if my last chapter was, well, a bit stupid. Or maybe really stupid. I sort of got blocked there... I'll just try to improve this chapter, okay?

*I forgot-belated Happy Birthday, Rukawa. Otanjobi omedetto (Did I spell that correctly?)! Maligayang kaarawan sa 'yo, mahal ko! Mwah!

*There's something else-this is not a romance fic, okay? I classified it under 'general' because I wasn't sure what this is supposed to be.

A month after Mitsui's love potion mix-up. Ayako forgave Miyagi out of the goodness of her heart.

"I'm forgiving you, Ryota, but the next time you do that I'm not going out with you anymore!"

"Oh, thank you, Aya-chan!" Miyagi said, with a huge sigh of relief. "You're so magnanimous...not to mention sweet, pretty, lovable..."

"Uh...thanks?"

"You're more forgiving than the goddess of mercy herself!"

"Lay off the compliments; we'll be late for class."

And Rukawa and Sakuragi just kept on loving each other, unaware of what really made up their love. Poor guys. And in Mitsui and Miyagi's dorm room...

"Okay Mitsui. For how long will the effects of your love potion thing last, anyway?" Miyagi asked. Mitsui has just explained to him what happened-why Rukawa fell in love with Sakuragi and why Ayako fainted after being sprayed with 'Love potion'. "I'm getting sick watching those two walk all over campus, holding hands."

"About a month, I think," Mitsui said thoughtfully. "It's getting closer."

"What's getting closer?"

"Duh... the day the potion wears off, silly! Oh no... I'm sure Sakuragi and Rukawa are going to kill me for this."

"Yeah, especially when Rukawa remembers that he actually let Sakuragi put an arm around his shoulders..." Miyagi reminded Mitsui sweetly.

Mitsui gulped.

"Or when Sakuragi has a certain memory of chasing Rukawa around saying sweet words..." Miyagi continued.

"..."

"And Rukawa recalls receiving a really adorable stuffed fox from his dear Sakuragi..."

"Stop it!" Mitsui yelled. "You're driving me crazy!"

"You're just scared." Miyagi said knowingly. "Because those two freshmen are war freaks with big bodies, strong arms, short tempers, hard punches, and all the other stuff wrestlers need."

Mitsui glared at his so-called friend

"Oh, and when Rukawa kicks someone, it's really painful. I didn't really experience being kicked by him, but it's supposed to hurt, judging from Sakuragi's expression when his ass gets kicked. And there's Sakuragi's patented head butt, too! No need for words."

"I'm not scared!"

"Not scared? You look like you're dying!"

"I said I'm not scared, okay?! And when I say I'm not scared, I'm not scared!"

"Prove it, then."

"And how will I do that?"

"Let's go to their room!" Miyagi's earring glinted.

"Oh alright."

The two guys went to Sakuragi and Rukawa's room. On the way, Miyagi held Mitsui's arm.

"Let go of me!" Mitsui said.

"You might escape!" Miyagi argued. "It's better of hold on to you, in case you run away."

"People are looking at us! They'll think we're gay!"

"Coach Anzai holds Sakuragi's hands. Rukawa's hands, too. (Remember the game against Kainan, when Akagi went out because he had an injury? Anzai made Sakuragi and Rukawa shake hands and promise to help each other) Well, he's not gay, isn't he? You're just too malicious."

Mitsui shrugged, deciding not to struggle. He might make a scene in the corridors. That was the last thing he wanted. When they reached the room,

"Okay, Miyagi. We're here. Now let go of me."

"Not until we're inside and the door is locked so you can't get away." Miyagi knocked twice.

"Come inside the tensai's tensai room!" yelled Sakuragi's voice.

The two came in. Rukawa was clearly doing his homework, until he fell asleep. He was now sleeping on an open book, drooling on it. Sakuragi was making another picture of himself, this time, with watercolor. He was still in a tensai pose. The difference was, Rukawa was in the picture, too.

"I think I have to let them know." Mitsui whispered.

"Yeah," Miyagi agreed.

"What are you guys whispering about?" Sakuragi asked. "Is it about how genius I am? Don't be shy to say it! Nyahahaha!"

Rukawa stirred a little. He finally opened his eyes and looked at his roommate and seniors. "What are you doing?" he asked groggily.

"We just wanted to talk to you," Mitsui said, wondering how to break it to the two.

Suddenly, Rukawa's and Sakuragi's eyes widened. They didn't move a muscle. Then they blinked and looked at the visitors, as if nothing happened.

"Are you guys okay?" Miyagi asked. He had a feeling Mitsui's love potion just made an exit from Rukawa's and Sakuragi's systems.

"Of course I'm okay! I'm a genius!" Sakuragi boasted. He had a glimpse of the picture he was making. "What is that?"

"That's your painting, do aho," Rukawa replied.

"Why are you in there? Yuck!" Sakuragi said. "Me in my genius pose is good, but why the heck are you in there? So ugly! Hm! I don't know who painted that! He or she is an idiot!"

"You painted that, so you're an idiot," came Rukawa's soft reply.

"Shut up, Rukawa! Hey, I remember something terrible! I was in love with you for the past month! Yuck!"

"Yeah, I remember that, too. But... I didn't feel like myself that time... like I was being controlled."

Miyagi and Mitsui looked at each other. This was not good. The expressions on Rukawa and Sakuragi's faces were happy. Not.

"I just started falling for you, a stupid fox guy, after you punched me." Sakuragi said. "But before that, I drank something Micchy gave me. He said it was from Haruko."

"Stupid," Rukawa said. "I fell for a big idiot when some do aho sprayed something sweet-smelling on my face."

"How dare you call the tensai an idiot!" Sakuragi fumed.

Rukawa ignored him. "It was supposed to be chloroform..."

"What? Chloroform?! You wanted to spray that on me?" Sakuragi asked angrily. "But it won't work, anyway! Because things like that never work on a genius! Nyahahaha!"

"Before that, I went to Mitsui-sempai's room. He borrowed the spray gun. He returned it. But he also had an identical spray gun in his hand." Rukawa said, thinking.

"So that means..."

"Mitsui-sempai has something to do with this nightmare." Rukawa fixed Mitsui with a stare.

"Micchy! How could you?" Sakuragi said. "You made me fall for Rukawa even when I hated him with all my heart!" He too glared at Mitsui.

"Um. I can explain?" Mitsui asked weakly.

Sakuragi and Rukawa were getting closer to him. And they had dangerous glints in their eyes.

Then they just started punching him out.

"This is for the humiliation of being with a conceited jerk named Rukawa!"

"This is for setting me up with a stupid do aho."

"This is for making me kiss Rukawa! Yuck!"

Miyagi let them punch poor Mitsui for a while. He understood their feelings, after all. A few minutes later, he decided Mitsui needed a break. "Hey, calm down, you two. That's enough, guys."

**** **** ****

A year after...

Miyagi watched Mitsui drag his suitcases into the dorm room. They were roommates again. He noticed a gift bag strapped on top of one suitcase. "What's in the bag, man?"

"This?" Mitsui asked. He peered inside the bag. "A gift from my cousin. Again."

"What is it?"

"Love potion."

"Like last year?"

"Yeah. But this time I'm not getting into any trouble because of this stuff."

"How will you do that?"

"It's really simple." Mitsui smiled. He then threw the bottles out the window.
