Ryoma and his classmates got change and headed to class. Ryoma was surprised to see Sakura waiting for him outside the change room.

Sakura "Lets walk to class together."

Ryoma, "Sure"

Chapter 3

As they walked together to their class, Tomo-chan and Sakura were following them and chatting to each other about they should do to get their Ryoma- sama back.

Sakuno, "I don't think we should be following them."

Tomo, "Come on don't be a scardy cat, we need to think of a way to get Ryoma to notice us and not the girl Sakura. She seems to know Ryoma really well."

"She does, she and Ryoma were best friend since they were small and they still are. They use to play tennis together. I think I heard my grandma said that she might even be joining the tennis team."

"But it's for boys only."

"Grandma said that they might be holding a ranking tournament so Sakura can play." "What?!"

And at the same time, Tomo and Sakuno were talking Sakura and Ryoma were talking too.

Sakura, "Hey do you notice two girls following us?"

Ryoma, "Yup."

Sakura, "Do you know them?"

"Yes, they are in some of our classes. The one in pig tails even started a fan club for me though I don't care about it."

Sakura started laughing, "Well it kind of gives you a clue to pay attention to them."

"I know but they won't shut up once they start talking about me."

"It's like that."

"Come on we better get to class." "Ok"

"Hey, Sakura I heard you might be joining the tennis team." A student asked to Sakura.

"I might" Sakura replied.

Class started and through out the day the news about Sakura joining the tennis team already spread through the school along with other rumors that Sakura probably join because she liked Ryoma. Which was true but she had never told Ryoma her true feelings. At was already lunchtime, Ryoma decided to head up to the rooftops and Sakura was looking for him.

"Momoshiro, senpai have you seen Ryoma?" Sakura asked

"I told you, you can call me Momochan, and no I havn't seen him, are you going to tell him u like him."

"Momochan1" Sakura said blushing.

"Ohh, so you do like him....'

"Momoshiro, quite it."

Where could he be she thought to her self. She decided to head to the rooftops to relax in stead and he found Ryoma asleep. Ohh.. So Ryoma comes up here during lunch. Ryoma woke up surprised to see Sakura.

"Hi, I have your lunch"

"Thanks, Sakura."

"Your welcome."

Ryoma picked it up and was just about to eat when Tomo and Sakuno came in.

"Ryoma, we brought you a lunch." Tomo said cheerfully

"Ohh thanks, but Sakura has already brought me my lunch."

"Ohhh.."

After school Momochan and Eiji walked up to Sakura and Ryoma.

Momo, "Hey Echizen do you want to go out for burgers, my treat. You can come too Sakura."

Ryoma, "I can't, I'm going to take Sakura over to my house to see my parents."

"Really, you sure you aren't going to tell her your true feelings."

"No" Ryoma said blushing.

"Ohh, so you do like her. Hey do you know what Ryoma, Sakura likes...."

"Momochan, Me and Ryoma have to leave now, trying to avoid the topic." Sakura said.

Eiji, "Stop teasing O'chibi."

You want to find out too, don't you?

Umm.... yeah.

While Momoshiro and Eiji were busy chatting away Ryoma and Sakura were already walking home.

"Ummm...Sakura, do you want to go to the tennis court behind the temple?"

"Sure,"

They decided to play a game before heading home. They played until it was dark. Then Sakura decided to stay at Ryoma's house just for tonight. Ryoma was different with Sakura he talked more openly, but when he was with his classmates it seems like he didn't care. He like it when Sakura was around then he was able to talk more openly to her.

"I'm home."

"What took you so long?" Ryoma's asked.

"I was playing tennis with Sakura."

"Hi uncle."

"Sakura you came to Canada."

"Yes"

Ryoma, "Mom, do you mind if Sakura stayed for the night?"

"No, Show Sakura where the guest room is." "Yes"

The next morning Ryoma father told him that Sakura had already left an that he better hurry because Momo-chan and Sakura were waiting for him.

He walked with them to class and he almost fell asleep like always since the classes were boring. At lunch Sakura again brought lunch for Ryoma and that had gotten Tomo really mad since she thought that Sakura was just plain friends with Ryoma. But she decided to give up and think of a new plan a better one. After school, Ryoma and Sakura walked together to the tennis change rooms to get changed for the practice when they met up with Horio, Katsuo and Kachiro.

Kachiro, "Ryoma, my dad invited us to play at the tennis court where he works this Sunday. You can come too Sakura."

Horio, "Sakuno and Tomo are coming too.

Katsuo, "So will you come?"

Sakura, "Sure, we'll come!"

Ryoma, "Sakura!'

"What, I decided for you so you don't have to think about it."

"Fine."

Sakura, "Come on, let's get to the tennis courts."
