Summary (if needed): Is Fuji nervous?

Oshitari smirked as he took in the sight in front of him with amusing glint dancing in his eyes. /Who would have thought, Fuji Syusuke was being nervous./ Oshitari thought bemusedly.

A sound of hesitation drew him back into reality as he turned his attention back to the sight in front of him. Arching an eyebrow expectantly, he asked.

"So ... what brings you over?" Oshitari eyed Fuji with a smirk.

All the while he ruled out the possibility mentally; there's no way Fuji is here to look for Atobe. Otherwise, the latter wouldn't have been a nervous wreck therefore it couldn't have been something to do with their tennis teams. That concluded that Fuji is here for private issues, that brought Oshitari to another query. /What sort of private issue does Fuji have with either members of Hyoutei? What type of private issue will drive someone like Fuji to get all flustered and nervous around him unless.../

Shaking his head forcefully, he tried to clear those random thoughts which somehow managed to wriggle their way to his mind. Forcing himself to stare at Fuji solemnly, he tried again. "So..."

Fuji flushed under Oshitari's scrutinizing eyes, and replied hesitantly. "Well... I..."

"Well?" Oshitari prompted.

Fuji took a deep breath to compose himself, before staring hard at Oshitari with determination lurking in the depths of his eyes. "I liked you."

/There! I'd done it.../ Fuji told himself firmly in his mind, a smile tugging at the corner of his lips. Now that he had gotten passed the most difficult part, the rest will come to him naturally.

Oshitari blinked. He could hardly believed his own hearing sense, his mouth open and close. Eyeing Fuji with incredulous expression, he blurted out. "I beg your pardon?"

Fuji smirked. "I said I liked you." he repeated firmly.

Oshitari was shocked, his mind took a full minute to finish digesting the idea of Fuji's declaration of love for him. For some odd reason, he felt faint and the fact that it was now Fuji's turn to observe him with piercing eyes, unnerved him. He was so deep in his own world that he hadn't noticed Fuji striding towards him with immense speed. He nearly jumped a foot high in the air when he felt Fuji's hand on his.

"Are you alright?" Fuji asked with concern.

"W...What?" Oshitari gulped nervously.

"Your hands are awfully cold... are you sure you're fine? Do I need to send you to the doctor?" Fuji frowned.

"No!" Oshitari hollered before he could stop himself. Flushing with embarrassment, he amended his answer. "No, I'm fine...there's no need to go to the doctor. It's just the weather being cold..."

/Gosh, get a grip! Just now, you were mocking Fuji for being nervous... now it's yourself, who's practically shaking in your pants./ Oshitari berated himself mentally, trying to calm himself down.

"Aa... I see..." Fuji smiled, sending a thrill sensation down Oshitari's spine.

Oshitari could felt his legs weakening, if it weren't for the fact that he was leaning against the lockers. He might have fell back and landed on the floor. /God... This is ridiculous/
His breath hitched as Fuji leaned forward, for a while, he actually thought the latter was going to kiss him right there and then. However, Fuji chose to breathe in the scent of his shampoo and licked his earlobe. These little actions causes Oshitari to lose his logical sense of mind.

Before he realized what he was doing, he reached over and captured Fuji's lips fiercely in his mouth. It wasn't until he heard the doorknob to the locker room opened with a click, did he realized that they were in fact, kissing hungrily in public. Breaking apart instantly, both looking exceptionally red in the face, the two of them looked away in embarrassment.

The door opened to reveal one very bewildered Shishido with a flushing Ohtori trudging behind. No doubt, Ohtori had witnessed their little activity and was blushing furiously because of it. Shishido appeared to take no notice of their strange behavior and merely just continued on with his usual routine of packing.
