I'm in a good mood!! 2nd fic up!! Yay!!


" Kaede!"

A voice called so loud enough for everyone in the Shohoku gymnasium to hear.

Rukawa glanced back to the door and suddenly stopped dribbling in his sight is a tall man, as tall as he, and behind him were a bunch of his so-called 'brigade'. He heard sounds of amazement from his teammates after seeing a duplicate of his. The person who just called him a while ago ran to him and embraced him tight.

" I miss you! How are you here in Shohoku, my favorite brother?" he asked, cheerfully his head so close as if they're about to kiss.

Rukawa frowned. " I AM your only brother!," he replied pushing away. "And we're in practice. Talk to me later." He continued, dribbling the ball again.

The guy nodded and before he stepped near the bench to sit, he introduced himself. " Nice to meet you all!!!! I'm Katoe Rukawa, Kaede's twin brother!!!" he yelled, then stared at the red head. He smiled in an unexplainable reaction. Sakuragi lifted an eyebrow and glanced at Kaede Rukawa. " You have a noisy brother." he said unbelievably.

Kaede felt embarrassed on what Katoe said but ignored it.

Later on, after the practice, Katoe handed Kaede a dry towel. He snatched it angrily and put it on around his shoulder.

" Are you mad?" Katoe asked, carrying Kaede's bag.

Kaede frowned & stared at him one more time. " You . why are you here?" he asked.

" Why? Don't you want me here?" he asked once again folding his arms.

Rukawa rolled his eyes and was supposed to leave him when he noticed another tall guy running towards them.

It was Sakuragi Hanamichi. His best friend, or so, everyone thinks. He is his secret lover and only the two of them knows it. It would be a big trouble if someone knows about them so, if possible, it should be just kept to themselves. " Oh yeah, tonight we have a date. k'sou I totally forgot thanks to Katoe." Kaede thought annoyingly.

His frustration against his brother increased as soon as Sakuragi walked towards not to him, but to his look - alike. " Hey, Kaede, let's go now before you forget." He told him, placing his hand on his shoulder.

He (Kaede) was supposed to speak about his 'little confusion' when Katoe touched his lover's hand. "You had this confusion redhead, but if you do insist, let's go." He replied, leaning closer to his face, saying those words seducingly.

Sakuragi blushed at his remark until he noticed Kaede's glaring eyes. Katoe also felt his twin's anger towards him and let go of Sakuragi's hand. He shrugged, and moved away from him as he felt a dangerous approach he'll get once he flirted around Sakuragi. "Just a joke!! I dig cute girls,y'know! So Kaede. I'll see you later at home and we'll celebrate the night. Together." He said, leaving the two.

He seemed so mysterious even for Kaede. Katoe looked cheerful and Kaede's a total snob. They're both contrast. and its obvious.

Kaede took Sakuragi's hand and gave Katoe his one last look. Then, he gasped and followed Katoe, leaving the red head for a while.

"Hey," he called, seeing his twin courting Fuji. Haruko's friend " What now?" he asked, looking frustrated. He ruffled his hair annoyingly after Fuji said she has to go home already and then, left.

"Just what do you mean, see you later at home? Do you think mom would accept you in?" he reminded.

Katoe burst out laughing, and then paused to talk. " Kaede, how could she not let me in? I'm her son, in fact her favorite son before me & dad left!"

"That was BEFORE." Kaede reminded once again.

Katoe just smiled. " I'll handle that. Trust me, my lovable twin. It's a piece of cake." He said so confidently that he made Kaede looked SUSPICIOUS.

After that Kaede went back to Sakuragi.
