oh and please leave reviews! *dances*
I learned from the best
Chapter 2: The calm Kunimitsu game
The tensai could feel the stare on his back, he had felt it during the whole match and it gave pressure into his game. Hazel brown eyes were eyeing him from behind as Inui served.
Fuji knew that since Tezuka had the fast serve no-touch ace, he would probably be able to return Inui's serve. The captain made contact with the ball and smoothly returned it. Next up Fuji saw Kaidoh chase the ball, returning it with his snake.
The ball curved over to Fuji's side and the tensai was ready for it, as ready as he could be under the eyes of their tall captain. To the tensai's fortune he never did play seriously, so nobody really noticed anything different in his style of playing now. Nobody but Tezuka, who saw every hesitating step he took.
Fuji was angry with himself for not being able to out-counter his newfound challanger, and that he constantly had to avoid being alone with the other guy. Fuji Syusuke had never been played before, and he wouldn't start now. He had to come up with something soon, but right now he had to keep out of the captain's way and try not to upset him even more or give him another opportunity to have the power over him again.
The tensai set his concentration back on the game again, as he served. The ball was soon returned and Tezuka caught it into his zone. It was amazing to see the captain developing a Tezuka zone that fit in a doubles match as well. All Fuji had to do was watch as Tezuka scored the point.
The tensai returned to his place as he heard the count of '0-15' being called, suddenly noticing footsteps behind him.
"Why didn't you use the disappearing serve?" he heard the deep voice say behind him and he turned around, the smile flawlessly in place. "I need you to do your best here. We have a lack of good doubles pairs, and Inui-Kaidoh pairing just might be the answer to that."
Fuji didn't reply and Tezuka returned to stand in position. The tensai had seen the way he had looked at him again. Through his squinted eyes he had been able to see the way his captain's gaze had roamed over his body, before quickly setting on his face.
The small brunette served away his disappearing serve. He wasn't sure if Tezuka's real motivations had been to test Inui and Kaidoh or to see if Fuji would obey him. Blue eyes opened and Fuji won the game.
Tezuka turned around to show the tensai a small glint of satisfaction, which only pissed the other boy off. Fuji had never considered Tezuka as a player and he was way too stoic to be one, so how come he was pulling it off with Fuji like this?!
Those dominating eyes watched Fuji as he ran to catch the snake once again and ended up slightly in front of Tezuka, where the stare was at its most powerfulness. A chill went through the smaller boy and he moved away to cover the other side of the court again.
They had never had these kinds of practice matches in doubles before, and as Tezuka had called out the pairings Fuji had known that last night's adventure wasn't indeed a simple loss of control on the captain's department, although the tensai was surprised that Tezuka would do anything that didn't involve tennis and the team.
Something inside the small brunette told him that Tezuka had more cards in his hands than he had laid out on the table and that the pokerface was on. Fuji just never thought Tezuka would challenge him into a game of strip-poker.

"We'll be on our way now!" Oishi called out to Tezuka who was in the shower and Fuji opened his locker.
"Fujiko, you haven't even begun changing!" Eiji pointed out next to his partner.
"Ah, I had something on my mind, that I had to do." Fuji lied and his friend shrugged, shortly after that leaving Fuji alone in the locker room. The tensai looked after the two, before unbuttoning his shirt and pulling it over his head.
"You should take it easier on practice next time." Tezuka's voice suddenly said behind him, startling the smaller boy. Fuji looked over his shoulder to see the captain wrapped in a towel, eyeing the bruises on his back and waist. Fuji quickly put on the school shirt, hiding the marks.
"I didn't know you had those." Tezuka started as he stepped next to the other boy and took out his clothes from his locker. "Otherwise I wouldn't have pushed you so hard today."
Fuji let blue eyes make their way from the taller guy's chest to his eyes. Tezuka might be very anti-social and not speak much, but when he did he really had a way with words and the scariest part was that he always meant what he said, unlike Fuji.
Silence fell upon them, as they changed into their school uniforms.
"Ja, I think I'll be going now." the tensai then smiled, placing the bag over his shoulder.
"Ah." was the only reply he got. Fuji was actually somewhat surprised that the other one hadn't tried anything during the short time there together. It wouldn't have been so hard to corner the smaller boy again, especially since Fuji was still a little off his usual game.
Through squinted eyes he watched the taller boy, from the doorway. Tezuka had been, well, extremely turned on the last time they had been alone together and now he was suddenly not making a move, although he knew the disadvantage the tensai momentarily was in.
This suited the small brunette fine. Now he had a little time before next practice to come up with a way to seal Tezuka's counters.

"Regulars, gather!" Ryuzaki-sensei's voice came and the tennis players came to a stop in front of her and listened to what she had to say.
Fuji noticed his mind wasn't really with him today either, as he just gazed the speaking coach absently.
"Tezuka, I have something I need to discuss with you." Ryuzaki then added and Tezuka's name woke Fuji up from his thoughts.
"Hai." came the usual answer and Fuji stiffened as he heard it come from right behind him. The scent he also knew so well became stronger and suddenly Fuji felt the captain's strong arm brush against his side, when the taller boy walked past. The tensai immediately tensed and felt fingers linger longer against his hip, before the other boy had passed him and was trailing after the coach.
The other regulars had taken off towards the locker room to change, but Fuji knew that he couldn't join them before his bruises were completely gone. There would be too many questions and the tensai wasn't in the mood to start coming up with good excuses right now.
So the small brunette waited for a while, pretending he was getting a soda, before entering the shower. He sighed as water covered his tired body, and shut his eyes completely closed.
The sound of the door being opened broke the peaceful moment and the tensai grabbed for his towel and swirled it around his waist, as he turned to the person entering the room.
Tezuka closed the door behind him, giving Fuji a quick look and then making his way towards a shower in the opposite corner of the room.
"Tezuka, you scared me." Fuji tried to break the awkwardness and when he noted that his captain had turned his back to him, he quickly washed off the remaining soap, before hurrying towards the door.
Heart beating fast, Fuji closed the door behind him and sat down on the bench. That was close. Tezuka sure knew how to provoke him with the smallest things.
Fuji could bet that the taller boy had arranged the meeting between him and the coach to go on for just as long, so that he could then come and surprise the other boy in the shower.
Sighing he remembered when the roles between them were different. Just a couple of weeks ago when he had played the same kind of a prank on the person taking a shower right now.
The tensai had taken the other one's towel with him outside and then waited out the captain, who refused to step into the locker room naked. Fuji had ended up giving him the towel through the door, in fear of atleast a hundred laps.
The tensai stood up and pulled on his school pants.
As the captain, Tezuka could order the smaller boy to practically anything, if he just motivated it right. Fuji eyed the object of his thoughts coming in, wearing the same towel the tensai had hid from him.
As the captain, Fuji could end up dancing in his palms, since never before had Tezuka really used that power against the tensai yet.
The soft feeling of a finger brushing against his skin woke him up from his thoughts and blue eyes catched brown ones, only to see them gazing his bare back instead. Some drops of water hit the smaller boy, as they dripped down from the wet owner hovering over him.
"Hmm, what is it?" Fuji's voice was still in place.
"They're starting to disappear." Tezuka's said and Fuji jerked, as a chill ran down his spine together with the taller boy's fingers. Every counter Fuji had thought of these last few days to beat the captain with, every perfect comeback, all failed as Tezuka stepped even closer.
"Ah, I'm fine." Fuji then muttered, a bit annoyed with himself. "What do you want from me?" he then heard himself ask and he faced the taller boy.
"Revenge." Tezuka then replied, a smirk forming on his lips as Fuji's eyes widened to that."Then I want you to give me everything."
A blush almost made its way to the smaller boy's cheeks. 'Everything?! Does he mean?' Fuji's mind span through the possible explanations, only ending up with telling himself he really had driven the poor captain insane.
"My family is away this weekend. Come over then." Fuji blinked at the strange demand, as Tezuka continued changing. Tezuka was doing exactly everything but what Fuji had expected.
"What for?" Fuji regretted the question the second it came out. He wondered if could have asked the same thing in another way, the way he used to be able to twist the words until it suited his situation perfectly.
Tezuka only gave him a silent look at first.
"So I can counter you." was the answer combined with a slightly challanging smile saying; you know you want to.
Blue eyes blinked, refusing to believe this was the same person he was talking to.
"You can't be serious."
"I'll make you a deal." Tezuka then replied instead. "I win you at your game and you win me at mine."
Fuji pulled slightly apart, almost afraid to ask. "And what if I can't?" Even if Fuji played a serious match against Tezuka, the taller boy would most likely win anyway.
Tezuka finally advanced the way Fuji thought he would have ever since the time in the classroom. Strong arms rested on each side of the tensai's head.
"Then you'll owe me one." Tezuka then answered, his body surrounding Fuji's. "You've always gotten what you wanted, Syusuke. This time you'll be forced to work long and hard to get it."
Fuji tensed at the way his name sounded on the other one's lips. So they were on first name basis now.
A part of the smaller boy was actually hoping Tezuka would lean in and just kiss him already, since that seemed to be what the captain wanted. But another part kept shivering at anything that related to Tezuka, an excitement and a fear building up into one and Fuji felt for the first time in his life lost.
Fuji decided to just feel relieved as Tezuka once more pulled apart, earning the other boy some room.
For a strange reason Fuji could almost see them two wrapped into each other's bodies, sharing something Fuji only made Tezuka believe he wanted to share when he played with him.
Blue orbs closed tightly together as the smaller boy tried to shake those images out of his head, hoping Tezuka hadn't noticed that.
The tall captain seemed to notice everything about him, more than humanly possible and there was no questioning anymore who was the real victim among them now, and who was the real player.
