++Love On the Court++
+Chapter 1++Rukawa's First Love+
A young man with carefree black hair and startling grey eyes, stepped into the gym, as Rukawa Kaede completed a successful three-point shot.
"Nice one Rukawa!" Ayako called out.
Akagi aka Gori – nicknamed by a one Sakuragi Hanamichi – blew his whistle and called the basketball members together. As they gathered, Anzai sensei stood up, his chin wobbling. He placed a hand on the newcomer's shoulders and looked at the others.
"This is Kanzaki Takuya, our newcomer," He turned to Kanzaki , "Why don't you tell us something about yourself."
Standing tall and sturdy, Kanzaki smiled, "I graduated from Mihei Jr. High, 185cm, I play all postions but I'm suited to power forward.
Akagi frowned, then nodded, "Okay, practice match, seniors against first-years, ikuseu!"
The seniors led 20-12, with strong players like Akagi, Mitsui, Kogure and Miyagi, while first-years had super rookie Rukawa, the amateur self proclaimed Tensai, Sakuragi and Kanzaki.
Suddenly, the lithe newcomer dashed ahead and skillfully stole the ball from Kakuta, as he feint a fake and dribbled three turns around the 'gorilla', and winked at Rukawa before shooting a jump shot from half court.
He'll never make it, Mitsui smirked and called for rebound, before the ball easily swished through the basket.
The first years won with no competition, being led by attacking Kanzaki.

The days following the match sees Kanzaki surrounded by bevies of girls, charmed by his good looks and amazing skill at basketball.
The young player easily snatched the title of Super Rookie, the ace of Shohoku, which invited jealous stares of Mitsui and Ryota, while he is called 'female saru' by Sakuragi and received only cold shoulders from Rukawa.

Rukawa was practicing alone at night in the gym, when the door slid open.
Kanzaki in a thin sleeveless vest, came in, his lean, muscular body glistening with sweat and his deep chest rising and falling as he had been running.
Rukawa stopped, glancing at him, his damp hair falling into his eyes as he wiped his face with the sleeve of his shirt.
While Kanzaki did some basic footworks and dribbling, Rukawa's blue eyes watched silently, trailing upon Kanzaki's form as he arched his body in mid-air, scoring a jump shot.
Moments later, Rukawa wrapped his arms around Kanzaki, pulling him tight against his hot body while breathing into his ear. The young one slipped out of Rukawa's grasp and turned, the two pulling together in close embrace as their found each other and they kissed passionately, tongues flitting in each other's mouths.
Rukawa pushed his lover to the floor, ripping of his vest while Kanzaki's hands slid up Rukawa's shirt, feeling the tight muscles. He moaned softly as Rukawa's hand made its way down his shorts, grabbing, as his lips trailed along Kanzaki's bare neck.
Reaching up, Kanzaki genly bit Rukawa's left ear, pulling him closer as Rukawa panted, while squeezing his butt.
The two passed a heat filled night in each other's arms, lean bodies tight against one another.
Kanzaki leaned forward and whispered in Rukawa's ear, "Kaede-kun" while Rukawa kissed him back, "Taku-chan".
