Drama Teacher Ch. 6

Ding-dong....ding-dong....

"That's the bell," thought Tomoko, "Sakuno, let's go!!! You're supposed to come and try on your costume!!!!"

"I know, I know, I'm coming," said Sakuno. She dragged her feet with her, for she really didn't feel like seeing the drama teacher. She did not even want to see what was in the bag...even though she had to admit, she did want to peak at the costume....

They made their way to the auditorium. The drama teacher was already there. "Well, it's about you two arrived. Go in the bathroom and change. Tomoko, you'll need to help. That dress takes at least two people to put it on,"

The two girls went to the bathroom. Sakuno opened the bag and hesitantly took out the dress. Little did she or Tomoko know that the dress was going to be more fancier than what they thought....

Tennis Practice over....

Drag drag drag....

Ryoma scowled. He was being dragged on the floor, his heels digging into the dirt. Obviously, the older boys had dragged him along with them. He was not pleased at all....Eiji and Momo had him by the arms. Because of his short height and light weight, it was easy to drag him along. At first, when Eiji and Momo tried to carry him, he nearly shrieked at them and tried to escape, but Fuji blocked his way and had pulled him back. Eiji and Momo then grabbed him by the arms and had Fuji watch the back.

Fuji smiled even more mischieviously. Ryoma growled slightly. That smile of his was really starting to get on his nerves.

All of the other tennis members, except for Tezuka and Kaidoh, had followed with them. Taka seemed to be enjoying this as much as Fuji did, and Oishi...well, half of him seemed to be sympathizing Ryoma, but the other half seemed to be quite amused at the sight of Ryoma being dragged to see the girl who was going to be playing his dear sweetheart. Inui was scribbling in his green notebook, "Ryoma dragged to see Sakuno-chan...how sweet can that be...." he murmured as he wrote in his book, "I-data..." Ryoma scowled even more.

"Nya, O'chibi, we're almost there!" Eiji was panting from the struggle that he had put up with the brat before, but he still had lots of energy left to drag Ryoma there.

"And soon, you'll see your faithful sweetheart," teased Momo, with a grin that Ryoma got even more annoyed with.

"We're here," announced Fuji. He enjoyed this immensely.

The boys walked in the auditorium.....

Sakuno and Tomoko

"Tomoko...the ribbon's fine...leave it alone...," Sakuno was trying to escape Tomoko's hands that were still pulling at the ribbon at Sakuno's dress.

"Hang on...it's not perfect..." Tomoko tried again, and finally, after 5 tries, she was satisfied, "Ah, now it is! All done!!" Sakuno stood up and looked in the mirror.

"Oh my..." Sakuno blushed at herself. She looked like a complete different person in that costume...

"Ohhh, isn't this just so adorable???? Sakuno, you've just got to let me take a picture of you in this on the day of the play!!!!!!"

Sakuno laughed weakly. "Alright, let's go, and show sensei how awesome you look!!! Go, go, go!!!" and Tomoko pushed Sakuno out of the bathroom and hustled after her, carrying all those other bags....

The Tennis Team

"Couldn't you guys have found a better hiding place?" hissed Ryoma. He felt just stupid having to crawl on his hands and knees behind the rows of seats.

"This is the only place where we're safe, so just shut up and watch!!" Momo snapped back.

"Momo, that wasn't nice," whispered Oishi.

"Erm...sorry, Oishi-sempai,"

"Nya, be quiet!!! I think we're about to see Sakuno-chan and Tomoko-chan!!" whispered Eiji.

"Ara? I don't see anything," whispered Taka.

"The door's opening," whispered Fuji, "Everyone, be quiet!!"

Sure enough, the door was opening. Tomoko was there. But where was Sakuno??

Tomoko had marched in but, having realized that Sakuno wasn't there, she turned back, "Sakuno, get over here!!!"

"M-maybe this isn't a good idea...can't you ask sensei to come over here??"

Behind the chairs, the boys started whispering.

"What's she saying?? I can't make it out," said Momo.

"Of course you can't, we're more than 15 feet away!!!" snapped Ryoma.

"Both of you, quiet!" Fuji's voice turned sharp. They all silenced down (A/N: eh-heh...). Back to the girls....

"No way!!! You're fine!! Come on, we're going to show sensei!!!" and Tomoko pulled Sakuno in. Sakuno finally entered due to Tomoko's pulling.

When Sakuno appeared, the boys' eyes immediately grew wide (even Fuji's eyes went open). Ryoma's own eyes couldn't believe what he was seeing (A/N: Imagine the parts where in anime, if the guys see the really pretty girls, and that little flowery background appears, hee!!). Sakuno looked...well...absolutely...gorgeous in that outfit, Ryoma had to admit. She had a pink dress on and ribbons were tied in her hair (A/N: I'm horrible with descriptions on how people look....). Tomoko did an awesome job on her...

"Very good!!!" exclaimed the drama teacher, "That's exactly what I wanted," and she started rambling on and on again...

Meanwhile, the boys were whispering once again.

"Nya! Ochibi!! It seems like you've got a VERY pretty sweetheart!!!" teased Eiji.

"You're going to have to change that attitude of yours if you wanna win her heart!!!" said Momo, drilling his knuckles on Ryoma's skull.

"Ow!! That hurts, Momo-sempai!!" Ryoma nearly yelled.

"You're going to have to withstand all that pain if you're playing Romeo, Echizen," said Fuji.

"Hey, let's go outside, we don't want them to find out we're in here," said Oishi. Taka nodded in agreement.

When they were outside, Momo and Eiji continued to pester Ryoma about Sakuno. Fuji joined in and so did Taka. Oishi stood there, not knowing which side he should relent to. His sympathizing side? Or his amused side? Puzzled, he stood there and decided to make sure things don't get a bit too rough.

Ryoma wanted to get out of Momo, Eiji, Fuji, and even Taka's evil minds. But worst of all, he wanted to get out of the play....
