Ponta: DO NOT INSULT MY HARD WORK!
Momo: ........Um, here's Ch.11.
The Right Guy
Chapter 11
Momo's POV
One month had passed. One month had passed since Echizen and I were best buddies again. One month had passed since I discovered the fact that I like Echizen. I don't really know why I like Echizen but I just did. Maybe, it was because he was so cute, even his taunting and that cold smirk of his were cute. In that one month, we hang out with each a lot and have fun, even though Echizen didn't seem like he was having fun, but I knew deep inside he did.
That month, I was trying to confess to Echizen at the right moments but for some reason, fate did not let me have the opportunity. Every time I tried to confess, something always interrupted me.
Right now, Echizen and I were taking a break from that exhausting tortuous practice that Buchou put us through. As we were resting, I chat with him, "Hey, Echizen, do you know what's today?"
"Friday." Echizen replied flatly.
"That's not what I meant." I pouted.
"Then what?" Echizen asked me annoyingly.
"It's Halloween!" I replied happily with a cheeky grin.
Echizen looked at me strangely and asked, "And? Do you want me to trick or treat with you or something?"
"Actually, there's a Halloween party today! Do you wanna go?" I hoped that he would say yes.
"No." Echizen replied right away.
That was fast.
I whined, "Eh!? Why not? It's going to be fun! Go to the party with me, please?!" I gave him the best puppy eyes that I could use.
"Is that a date?"
"If it is, would you say yes?!" I asked with a hint of hope.
But ...
"No." Echizen gave the same response.
Sigh, damn that cocky brat!
Echizen continued, "I bet, you're only asking me because no one would go out with you."
I gave him a mock glare and yelled, "HEY! For your information, there was lot of people who wanted to go out with me! But I turned them down because I wanted to go out with you!" ... oh shit, did I just blurted out?
That brought Echizen out of his bored state and looked at me, "Care to repeat that, Momo-senpai?"
I quickly averted my eyes away from him and muttered, "You heard nothing. That's all."
Echizen knew I was lying and commented, "I swore I heard something about wanting to go out with me."
Why do I have to open my big mouth? Why!?
I looked at him and sighed, "Alright, I said it. Even I say that, it doesn't matter to you since you refused me."
Echizen asked me, "Why?"
I knew that he was asking why I wanted to go out with him. The answer was very obvious and I could feel my cheeks flushed. I should tell him now that I like him.
I opened my mouth as I tried to find the perfect words for this moment. I stuttered, "It's b-because," I was rubbing the back of my head out of nervousness, "I-I-I li..."
"HOI! HOI! Momo! Ochibi!" I heard a cherry voice calling our names.
I banged my head on the wall because I was foiled again.
WHY MUST THIS ALWAYS HAPPEN TO ME?! River of tears were pouring down from my eyes.
I saw Echizen's eye twitching as he thought I'm crazy.
Eiji ran up to us, yelling, "Break time is over! Buchou wanted us back in the courts!"
Echizen replied, "Hai." And he left for the courts.
I sighed out of major disappointment and then I noticed Eiji was looking at me with a sly grin.
I spoke annoyingly, "What?!"
"Did you get to tell Ochibi yet?" Eiji grinned.
I looked at Eiji angrily and yelled, "I WOULD! BUT YOU JUST HAVE TO KEEP INTERUPPTING ME!" then I stormed off.
Why this did always happen? Why couldn't I tell him? It took a lot of courage for me to say it but I always have to be interrupted. Most of the time, it was Eiji's fault.
...sigh, I shouldn't blame Eiji. He did try to help me with this but sometimes I wish I have the chance to tell Echizen my feeling.
Neutral's POV
The Seigaku Regulars were back in the tennis courts, awaiting their Buchou's orders. It seemed that they have to play a special game that was proposed by Inui, which two regulars played each other and the loser must drink the dreaded Inui Juice. (This took place in one of the episodes before Sengoku's match. It was the episode when Ryoma lost to Eiji. I DEMAND A REMATCH BETWEEN THEM! ... Then again I also DEMAND A REMATCH BETWEEN MOMO AND RYOMA because they never finish their game. Unfortunately I forgot how that episode goes and I only remember that Ryoma lost to Eiji.)
Three Regulars, one including Momoshiro, had lost their match and were forced to drink the toxic Inui Juice. They rushed to the sinks right after they drank it with the expectation of Fuji and Tezuka. (Well Tezuka did drink it. LOL)
The final match was between Eiji and Ryoma. Before the match started, Inui announced that the loser will drink the Golden Inui Juice. (I forgot the name. SORRY!) The mention of the Inui Juice caused Eiji and Ryoma to sweat- drop frightened.
Eiji entered the court and thought, "Sigh, Momo is angry at me. Hmm what should I do to make him happy? Hmm." Then he looked at Ryoma and suddenly he had a bright idea.
"Hoi, Ochibi!" Eiji called out to the freshman.
Ryoma looked at him confusedly and asked, "What is it, Eiji-senpai?"
Eiji gave a trickster's grin, "Why don't we increase the stakes?"
"Increase the stakes?"
"Yeah! The loser must do what the winner wanted for the rest of the day!" Eiji suggested, "How about it?"
Ryoma looked at him annoyingly and replied, "No."
Eiji smiled teasingly, "Oh, could it be that you're afraid to lose to me?"
Ryoma gave him the cold glare and let his pride took over, "Fine, I will accept your stakes."
They started their match and they both played their best but within the five returns of Inui's game, Eiji had won and poor Ryoma had to suffer.
Momo's POV
That was the most DIGUSTING thing I ever taste in my entire life! BLAH! Each time, Inui made a new juice, the taste get worse than ever. It's actually a miracle that I survived through this.
I washed my face and saw Echizen rushed to the sinks. I was surprised that Echizen was here but I knew it mean one thing.
"So, Echizen, you actually lost?" I teased him.
"Shut up!" Echizen gave me the cold glare and then he continued to vomit.
"Hoi, Ochibi! Remember our bet!" I heard Eiji yelling at Echizen.
Then I heard Echizen groaned and I asked out of curiosity, "What bet?"
"None of your business." Echizen spoke coldly then he left after he washed his face.
What bet? I couldn't help but be curious about the bet. It must have something to do with Eiji. ...Hmm, knowing Eiji, he could make Echizen dressed up in cute clothes.
Few hours passed, I was getting ready for the Halloween party. Luckily, it wasn't a costume party or otherwise I would have to get one. I wore my sleek black jeans and fancy blue T-shirt with few cool accessories. (I do not have a fashion sense at all. Sorry! Plus I don't like to use costumes because it would take too many details. Sorry again! ) I left my room and saw Echizen's door down the hallway.
I wonder if he would come if I ask him again.
I knocked on his door many times before I yelled, "Hoi, Echizen! You sure you don't want go to the party with me?"
There was no response.
He must have gone out. Sigh, so much for getting a date.
I headed to the place where the Halloween Dance Party would be. I went inside and heard various kinds of loud upbeat music booming all over the place. Among the crowd, I saw my fellow Regulars, each of them dancing with their partners.
Sigh, this party doesn't seem so fun. Normally, I would love to party but all my friends are now in some lovey-dovey mode and I don't want to be the third wheel.
I heard that Taka-san brought his boyfriend here. I was curious to find out until something caught my ear.
"Hey, don't you want to dance with us?" I heard a male voice speaking.
I glanced to where the voice came from and I saw three guys surrounding a small girl.
A small sexy beautiful girl.
... WAIT A MINUTE! DID I JUST CALL A GIRL SEXY?! Am I not supposed to be gay?! Then why am I feeling that same feeling with the girl as the same feeling I felt with Echizen!? ...Could it be that I'm bi?
But ... that girl was sexy and cute and all. She was wearing a red shirt with thin straps over her shoulder and a black skirt with belt. She has long sleek black hair. She was small, smaller than me and her chest seemed small for a teenage girl. She also had a cute face with beautiful golden eyes.
Wait... golden eyes?
Then I immediately realized that three men were harassing her.
"Come with us. We guarantee that you will have fun." One man spoke.
The girl gave him a cold glare.
Hey, that glare seemed awfully familiar.
The second man scowled, "Hey, I don't like your look." Then he grabbed her arm wrist, "Show some respect, you whore!"
She glared at him again.
The second man was pissed and then the third man was laughing, "Hey, why don't we take her with us?"
"Sure, we definitely have some fun with her." The first man suggested.
Okay, this gotta stop. I can't stand by and let this happened.
I went up to them and poked the second man's shoulder. The second man glanced at me and I immediately punched him right at the face. The second man fell on the floor and held his broken nose. The first man yelled, "What the hell were you doing!?"
I glared at him, "I should ask you the same question. Taking a woman away against her will."
The third man yelled, "That's none of your business!"
I'm glad I'm a powerhouse. I clenched my fist and spoke threateningly, "Hey, anything involving her is my business. I suggest you leave her alone and no one would get hurt."
Both men were frightened. They supported the second man up and ran away. I smiled triumphantly and looked at the girl, "Are you alright?"
The girl seemed surprised to see me as she knew me. She quickly crossed her arms and pouted coldly, "I could defend myself anyway."
I was offended by her attitude but it seemed familiar. I gave her a mock glare, "Hey, I save you from them and this is some thanks I get?"
The girl looked pensively and struggled, "... thanks."
I smiled, "You're welcome. I'm Momoshiro Takeshi! What's your?"
The girl introduced, "I'm E..." she stopped and her eyes widened as she realized that she did something wrong. She quickly spoke, "I'm Eniwa Ryoki."
That's a nice name.
"So, do you come here with your date?" I asked, hoping that she doesn't have a date. ...Wait, why am I hoping?
She looked at me as I was stupid. Geez, I really hate that look. I already got it from Echizen and I don't need another person to give me that look.
She answered, "No, someone forced me to go."
"Oh," some strange reason I felt really happy, "I also don't have a date too."
She smirked, "I guess, we're both dateless."
I smirked too and then I heard a new song came on. I offered my hand to her, "Since, we're both alone. Do you want to dance with me?" Hoping that she would say yes.
But...
"No." She replied right away.
I was offended, "Why not?" I asked her.
"I don't like to dance." She said it flatly.
I teased, "Really? I bet you don't dance because you don't know how to."
She turned red with embarrassment. I knew the answer from her reaction and laughed like crazy.
She gave me the cold glare and scowled, "Shut up!" then she crossed her arms, her face turning red with embarrassment.
I stopped laughing and suggested, "I could teach you how to dance."
She glared and then she looked down. She answered, "Sure. I have nothing to do anyway." She said it with disinterested face.
I held her in my arms and this incredible warm feeling was rushing through my body. I felt like I was in heaven and I never want to leave. I never felt this feeling except when I hugged Echizen.
... Do I like two persons?
Neutral's POV
Eiji was having a drink with Oishi near the punch bowl. Eiji took noticed of Momoshiro dancing with a girl. He grinned and commented, "Look Oishi, Momo is dancing with her." He pointed to a lovely scene.
Oishi was surprised and wondered how they came to meet each other. But he had a feeling that something bad will happen from this. He spoke concernedly to Eiji, "Eiji, I understand you forced that person to go to the party but why do you have to dress up that person?"
"It made it look so kawaii!" Eiji grinned cheekily, "Plus when if this turn out good, Momo will thank me!"
Oishi sighed and knew it was best to stay out of personal business of love but his partner thought it would be best to help. He asked, "Where do you get those clothes?"
"From my sister," Eiji replied, "Since she took my favorite toothpaste, she owned me one."
Momo's POV
I guided her step by step and somehow her body is perfectly aligned with mine. We danced gracefully until the end of the song.
I want this moment to last forever.
I looked at her curiously and she looked back.
If I can't be with Echizen, then might as well that I will be with her because I like her.
I leaned forward toward her and planted my lips on her lips. It was a wonderful sensation. I was at pure bliss but... Suddenly the girl punched me roughly in the stomach and I crumpled down because of the pain. I looked up to her and she was gasping as she was freaking out. She was rubbed her lips with the back of her hands and yelled, "WHAT THE HELL WERE YOU DOING?!"
I gaped as I tried to explain but she continued yelling.
"STUPID MOMO-SENPAI!" Then she ran out of the party.
Oh shit. Oh shit. Oh shit. Damn it. Why do I have to do that?! Oh man, she would never like me. ...wait a minute; did she just say Momo-senpai?
...I suddenly remembered her small body size, her golden eyes, her cold glare and attitude, and what she just called me.
One name came to my mind.
...ECHIZEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!????????????????????????????
That girl was actually Echizen. No wonder I have those warm feelings around her. It was actually him and I thought I was worried that I like two persons. But...why was he wearing a dress?
Then I remembered what Echizen said to me before he left.
... Oh crap. What have I done?!
I immediately got up and went out of the party. When I got out, I glanced in all directions and saw that she ... he was gone.
He must have headed to the dorm, so I went there.
I unlocked the door and saw Echizen's shoes in the hallway.
So he was here.
I closed the door and removed my shoes. I went up the stairs and headed toward Echizen's door. I knocked on it twice and called, "Echizen?"
"What?" I heard a voice from the other side of the door.
I asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
"What are you talking about?" I was surprised when I heard his response.
I was confused so I questioned, "Weren't you at the party?"
A response again, "No, I wasn't. I didn't want to go, remember?"
He was lying. I knew he was lying, I could tell in his voice. But how to make him tell the truth?
"Oh, just want to tell you that your stick left foot out too much when you dance." I said.
"I did not!" Echizen exclaimed as he let his pride took over.
I laughed and I'm sure Echizen was embarrassed.
I was laughing until I heard a serious response, "Why do you do it?"
I stopped laughing and I knew what he was implying.
I actually kissed him and it was a wonderful feeling. I have to say it.
I answered, "It was because I wanted to."
There was a silence between us but I continued, "I wanted to because .... I-I ... lik."
"Don't ever do that again!" I heard a loud angry response.
Don't ever do that again? That is what Echizen saying? Does he mean...?
Suddenly I felt pain, worse than the pain when he punched me. I heard another response, this time in a lower tone. "You shouldn't done that in the first place. It was a mistake."
A mistake. That word from Echizen kept repeating in my mind. It was a mistake. It was the most wonderful feeling I ever experienced but he regretted it.
The pain became worse and my visions were increasingly blurry. Tears were flowing down as I realized this pain. The pain of rejection. I couldn't hold it in but I spoke, "Alright, Echizen. ... I won't do it again." The pain became overwhelming but I continued, "I'm sorry." Then I ran. I ran back to my room and fell on my bed in sobs. I cried out my broken heart into my pillow.
He hates me. Echizen hates me. I shouldn't done it and now he hates me.
Neutral's POV
Ryoma heard footsteps running away from his door. He knew that Momo was upset from the tone of his voice when he apologized to him. But it has to be done.
He was in his night clothes after taking off his female wear and a long wig. He muttered, "Stupid Eiji-senpai. Why does he have to make me wear those stupid clothes?" He remembered his dance with Momoshiro and his kiss.
He touched his lips and muttered sadly, "Stupid Momo-senpai. Why did he have to do that?" He set nestled behind the door with his knees touching his chin. He murmured, "Why does he have to do that?" His golden eyes were darkened with deep sorrow. He asked, "Why?"
Karupin came up to him with honest concern, "Meow?"
Ryoma lifted his head and saw Karupin. He extended his arms and grabbed the cat. He hugged his cat and asked, "Karupin, I'm not gay, right?" He asked with depression.
Karupin's only response was, "Meow."
