Chapter 10
"Oi, Hanamichi where are you going?" Yohei called his friend. He hasn't seen the red head in days and when he finally did, he was asked a favor that was indeed very peculiar. Well, it did include the kitsune and everybody knows how Hanamichi hated Rukawa's guts. Yohei scratched his head. [These past few days, he's been really happy about something and I know he had spent most of his time with Rukawa, since they are on a revenge bout with Sendoh. I wonder if there's a change of heart?] He mused to himself silently as Sakuragi bounded on to him looking very pleased with himself.
"So? What's happened to you man?" Yohei asked the red head.
"Well.. the tensai's been very busy you know!"
"I know, dumb head! But what were you busy about?"
"I'm not a dumb head! Call me that again and you'll get it!"
"Hai-hai. So are you going to tell?"
"Okay. You know that Ka... I mean Rukawa and I are having a revenge on Sendoh right?" Yohei nodded.
"Well its over! Cause were busted."
"What?! You were busted? How?" Yohei asked unbelievably. He had been in on the plan and it was full proof.
"Well, the little Ryonan guard found out about it. He's not nuts like Sendoh you know? I heard he's real smart." Yohei had no idea who Hanamichi was talking about but he nodded and continued to prod his friend.
"So now that's everything is in order I assume you and Rukawa had gone back to your normal selves I presume? Back to being cats and dogs?" Sakuragi suddenly blushed and was tongue tied. Yohei was looking at him expectedly.
"Uh-oh. Don't tell me..." Yohei had his eyes wide open as realization strikes him. He knew Hanamichi best and his instincts are telling him something.
"Uh.. hehehehe... Yohei, I didn't tell you sooner but really, I was going to tell you. Umm.." Yohei smiled teasingly as the pieces fell into place. Hanamichi had been busy all day about some surprise for someone. He's over with Sendoh. And he's really, really very considerate to Rukawa these days. What more is there to think about?
"My, my Hanamichi! You rebounded very quick, ne?" He kidded the red haired player, who just smiled stupidly at him.
"Now you know, okay? Don't tease me! I've already endured the team's and the gundam's taunts!"
"All right then. So where are you going? You might be running late after I held you up." Sakuragi looked at his watch.
"Uh-oh. You're right, better get going." Hanamichi started to walk away.
"So the favor?" He added with a glance at Yohei. Yohei held up a cam recorder and winked.
"Thank you!!!!"
Yohei held the camera in his hands gingerly, while thinking of a very good way to conceal himself. Hanamichi told him that Rukawa would probably want the whole surprise taped so that he could watch it over and again. And he also revealed that Rukawa acted cool and aloof to people because he doesn't want the idea of being rejected again. He was rejected quite a couple of times and it was very disheartening. So Hanamichi had planned to do some sort of a 'family thing' with the kitsune. To let the raven haired guy know that despite his cool demeanor, the team and a few selected people do appreciate him for what he really is, not because of his looks and his ability in basketball. Yohei had to hand it to Sakuragi this time; he really can show a spark f genius every now and then.
Yohei looked up when he heard scrambling noises behind him. He gasped and tried to run-off when Takamiya tackled him to the ground.
"Yohei! Where are you going? We're coming with you!" He said while still holding Yohei feet.
"I can't! Its very hard to conceal myself, let alone all of us!"
"But! You'll have all the fun! And Hanamichi didn't give us any part." Okhusu said while putting his arms around Noma.
"Yeah! Its unfair!"
"Grrrr. You guys are going to get it! Seems I don't have any choice. Promise me you'll be very quiet! The surprise going to be ruined if we are found out!" Yohei warned them. The three stooges nodded vigorously.
"So what do we do?" Takamiya asks, finally letting go of Yohei's leg.
"Well, we are going to tape Rukawa the whole day, so he'd have remembrance of this day."
"I see."
"So you better keep your mouth shut or else it will caught on tape and it will ruin everything." The three nodded timidly but their eyes were twinkling with mischief.
"BEHAVE!" Yohei asks them sternly. He doesn't really want to break this is for Hanamichi.
"We promise."
Sakuragi was humming a happy tune as he made a left at the corner. Original plan was to wait for Rukawa in school and surprise him from there on. But he can't wait. Ever since he left the kitsune sleeping, he can't take his mind off him and he has thought of this thoroughly. It will not ruin the plan in the least if he shows up at Kaede's house.
When he sees Rukawa's house he noticed the door was open and Rukawa was looking outside looking completely horrified. He also noted that the kitsune was holding a bouquet of flowers. Sakuragi's brow knitted together in confusion. [For me? Or ...?] His instincts are telling him that he investigate further. So what he did was to conceal himself from Rukawa's view and slinked to the dark alley beside the house.
After staring out in space for such a long time, Rukawa finally snapped back and went inside with Fujima. He dropped what he'd been given and looked at Fujima in rage.
"Didn't I tell you to fuck off? I hate this!" He raged at the pretty Shoyo guard who just kept smiling sweetly.
"Really? I don't admit defeat easily. I want you and you'll be mine." Rukawa snorted.
"Says who? I'm not your property for your information! And could you please leave now? I have a date to go to." Rukawa stared rudely at Fujima then at his door, hoping he would get the message. Fujima did but did not comply.
"My, my how rude. A date? Who would be dating you?" Fujima snorted this time.
"Look, I know you and after the Sendoh thing you'd never be dating. Well not at least for a couple of months." Fujima continued sneaking up slowly at Rukawa.
"How dare you! My love life is none of your business." In the blink of an eye Fujima was on Rukawa, his breath hot in Rukawa's cheek.
"Really? But you know, you are my business." With that said, Fujima leaned in for a kiss. Rukawa was so surprised he had not sidestepped Fujima. His reflexes were not working, he wanted to push him away but he couldn't. He was remembering how good it is to be in Fujima's arms... When suddenly something crashed outside the window. The kiss was broken and Rukawa looked in the direction of the crash.
Hanamichi's sullen face was peering inside. He had a good view of the... [Oh god!] Rukawa's mind screamed. He then sees Hanamichi expression change to shocked into hate and loathing. His face is burning red with rage that it almost matched his hair. Then Hanamichi was gone.
At the other side of the alley....
"My god! Its only the first day and he's already cheating!" Noma said breathily as the scene unfolds. Okhusu still held the camera firmly in his hands the tape still rolling.
"Hmmmm... I hope more x-rated stuff comes in!" He said while adjusting the zoom of the camera.
Yohei was beside himself with rage. [How dare he do this to Hanamichi!!] His mind yelled. His first instinct was to barge in and to wreak havoc but then restrained himself. This was Hanamichi's business after all.
"WOOOW!!! THAT MUST HURT!!" Takamiya whispered madly to Yohei. He looked up to see Fujima with a broken nose. Rukawa was shaking with mad anger. They could hear them clearly from the outside.
"ARE YOU HAPPY NOW!!! YOU'VE RUINED EVERYTHING!!!" Rukawa thundered as he raised his fists again. Rukawa looked at Fujima loathingly, while the Shoyo guard was so shocked for words.
"Hanamichi is my... but now because of you he may not be anymore..." Rukawa's voice dropped to a mere whisper and looked at the window where Hanamichi was peering a while ago.
"I'm sorry Hanamichi....." Then as if thinking deeply and forgetting Fujima completely he whispered to himself.
"No. I am not giving you up yet Hanamichi." Then he went out and slammed the door behind him real hard. Fujima still hasn't moved from his spot.
"You got that all on tape?!" Yohei asked excitedly.
"Yes!!!! Every single moment." Okhusu said as all four jumped around joyously. [There may still be some hope for these two.] Yohei thought to himself. Then he looked at Rukawa's retreating form. [I'm wrong about you after all.]
Hanamichi was walking around and around the same spot in the park. He still can't believe that Rukawa was don't his to him. He felt really bad about this and really mad. He was just two timed by a smiling hentai then he was dumped by Rukawa. What hurts is that he really cared for the kitsune. He looked up the sky in frustration.
"AGGHHHHH!!!! AFTER ALL THE TROUBLE I DID.... AFTER ALLLL OF IT..." Hanamichi yelled at the top of his voice. After that yelling bout, his anger subsided slightly. He fell down on the bench completely defeated. [Why did you do this to me? I loved you.... I guess this will never work out after all.] Tears streamed down his face as he said the last goodbye to his kitsune.
