Chapter 5: Sacked from the Game

P.E. (Physical Education)...

"Yuki!!! Come quick!!!" "What is it?!" Yuki asked as Isumi pulled her out the changing room in a rush. "Takeshi's having a game again! We must see him play!!!" she replied. "Again?! What do you mean again?!" Yuki asked in surprise as they pushed their way through a large crowd of girls, "And exactly how many times did he already play?!" "Fourth time right now... He had a game early in the morning, then he had another one during recess and another one during music a while ago..." she said happily as she found an empty bench near the sideline, "Anyway... this is the third one I watched... I couldn't watch him during music... But I watched him during recess... No one has beaten him yet in b-ball! And gosh-he was soo hot!!! I was even able to talk to him before his game!!! Aah!!! I love him so much!!!"

"Oh! So that's why you left me a while ago?! What a friend you are... you even forgot to return my math notebook to me-" Yuki grumbled as the crowd suddenly burst into an applause as Takeshi and a tall bald-headed guy named Ryu came forward along with the referee, "Ah great... it's the jerk of the season..."

When the game started, every girl kept cheering for Takeshi. "Argh!!! This is so useless!!!" Yuki muttered to herself in annoyance as Isumi told her to sit down for the 8th time.

With a minute more remaining, Takeshi was leading 54-52. Everyone was cheering so hard, especially when Takeshi made a spectacular dunk, making the score 56-52, which ended the game.

Takeshi faced the crowd on the benches cheering for him. 'Grr... I'm getting tired of all this racket! Can't they shut up for once?!' he thought, sighing as he scanned the crowd.

Then he stopped as he saw a young lady with long brown hair getting off her seat. He looked at her closely when his eyes suddenly widened. "It's... It's her..."

Detention time... again...

"Here's you math notebook... sorry I forgot..." Isumi said as she got a blue notebook out of her locker. "Well, it's about time!" Yuki said, taking it and placing it in her bag. "I can't believe I got to talk to him a while ago... He's so great... and so... hot... and-" Isumi said dreamily as Yuki placed her bag in her locker. "Humph... I still think he's a jerk..." Yuki mumbled as she left for the janitor's closet.

At the janitor's closet, a tall brown haired guy stood by, leaning on the door. He stood there, checking his watch, when he noticed someone heading towards him. He looked up and saw a beautiful young lady, standing before him with shock in her eyes. They stood on their spots and stared at each other in silence.

"Hey janitor girl," Takeshi finally greeted, "'Sup?" "What are you doing here?!" Yuki exclaimed in irritation, "Don't you have... like... a game or something?! You're not supposed to be here!" "And how would you know that, eh?" Takeshi asked, eyeing her coolly, "You're just the janitor girl... right?"

"NO!!! I'M NOT THE JANITOR!!!" Yuki exclaimed angrily, "YOU?! YOU, ON THE OTHER HAND, ARE A TOTAL IDIOT AND A PAIN-IN-THE-ASS!"

Yuki angrily turned her back at him as she started to stomp her way away from him. But all of a sudden, Takeshi grabbed her by the wrist and said, "Hey wait! I was only joking! I'm really sorry about that... I really didn't mean it..." Yuki turned and glared daggers at him as he added, "I just came by to say that... well... I... um...saw you during one of my games a while ago... you know... the one with Ryu?" "MY friend just dragged me along to watch okay?!" Yuki snapped, crossing her arms, "It wasn't like I wanted to see you or anything- To tell you the truth; I wasn't even watching the game."

"S-so... you won't come to watch my other games?" he asked, hiding his disappointment. "DUH... No! You don't really need me for your cheering squad, you know!" Yuki retorted, "You think you're so popular...so cool...so attractive...so irresistible... so great?!"

Yuki furiously trudged her way past Takeshi and back to the janitor's closet. She grabbed a mop and a bucket from the closet, then walked up to Takeshi saying, "You really think you're all that do you?! Well, guess what?! You're not!!!" Yuki then stomped away from him as she headed for the girl's washroom.

In the girl's washroom...

"Argh!!!" Yuki cried, throwing the mop and the bucket unto the floor in annoyance. She leaned on the wall and allowed herself to slide down to the floor. She sat there for a while in silence when she stood up and grabbed the toppled mop and bucket on the floor.

'Was... was I too harsh?' Yuki thought as she filled the bucket with water from the sink. 'I mean... I-I did do the right thing... didn't I?' Yuki scratched her head furiously in annoyance. "Why the heck does it have to be this way?!"

Back in the 1st year halls...

"I hate cleaning after these guys..." Yuki grumbled to herself, "The people here are too messy..." She wiped the sweat off her head when suddenly, she heard people arguing in the gym.

"Takamoto! Why did you just come in now?! Do you know that you're 30 minutes late?!"

"Yes coach..."

""Yes sir?!" is that all you can say to me Takamoto?! You've never missed a practice before?! You never have been late to a practice! What were you thinking, Takamoto?! Are you trying to destroy your clean reputation?!"

"..."

"Why aren't you speaking?! Speak up damn it!!! Where have you been?! Why aren't you talking?!"

"..."

"That's it! I've had it! I've had enough of your foolishness!!! YOU- are suspended from our game with Jouten High tomorrow!"

"WHAT?! BUT COACH?! YOU CAN'T?!"

"I can and I will! If you've only been to practice today, Takamoto... it wouldn't have to be this way..."

"But-"

"No 'Buts'! I want you out of here right now! And next time, don't be late for practice!"

"Yes coach..."

Suddenly, the gym doors burst open and Takeshi walked out. He then froze on the spot when he saw Yuki staring back at him in shock.

They looked at each other in silence. Then, Takeshi quietly turned to walk away from Yuki.

"Wait!"

Takeshi stopped and turned to look at Yuki. "Um... Um... You see..." Yuki mumbled, trying to work out her words. Takeshi looked at her, trying to show no emotion as Yuki looked at him again. He then turned away from her to leave as he quietly said, "See you..."
