00000chapter break00000

It was already time for practice.

Kiyosumi was looking drastically for Kira.

'Man, where is she? This is so unlucky!' Kiyosumi thought, as he walked down the hallway.

"Kiyosumi!" called a dark, dark voice.

Kiyosumi knew that voice only belonged to one person… Kira.

"Kira-chan, I was just looking for you!" Kiyosumi said, with a relieved sigh.

Kira rolled her eyes.

"Whatever… 'You're late' is what I planned on saying…" Kira said, with a heavy glare.

"It's not my fault! I got late, because I was trying to look for you!" Kiyosumi said, telling the truth.

"Cut the crap, Kiyosumi! I will not have tardiness to those who are currently part of my team, understand?" Kira asked, firmly.

"But I-."

"Kiyosumi…" Kira said, threateningly.

Kiyosumi gave up and sighed.

"Aa… It won't happen again…" he said, defeated.

Kira nodded, and just signaled him to follow.

"So…" she said, while walking down the hall.

Kiyosumi looked up at her.

"…I didn't know your type in girls were like Saori Shiba-san…" Kira said, with a smirk.

"That was a mistake! Dan said she was gorgeous, and everyone knows a child's taste is waaaay far from an adult!" Kiyosumi complained, trying to make her understand.

"Gorgeous? I got you… I do recall you saying the girl Dan was trying to point out was 'ugly…'" Kira said, with a light chuckle.

Kiyosumi was speechless, he didn't think one girl would burn him so much.

'Social torture… complete…' Kira thought with a smirk.

00000chapter break00000

Kira and Kiyosumi finally got to the courts.

Once the girls got a sight of them, suddenly, "Konichuwa, Kira-buchou, Kiyosumi-fukubuchou," came the squeals of the girls tennis team.

Kira blew her whistle.

"Alright! That's enough! Begin your practice matches!" Kira said, firmly.

The girls listened and went to their assigned courts.

"Wow, you've really shaped up this girls, huh, Kira-chan?" Kiyosumi said, eyeing one of the girls in a short skirt.

"Urusai desu… Kiyosumi, I need you to help with the freshman, I heard from Banda-sensei that you're fond of teaching the freshman, so…" Kira said, looking up at him.

"Aa, I'll help them. Sumimasen," Kiyosumi said, taking his racquet with him.

'Why is it like Kiyosumi's in a good mood today…? Iie! I won't let him fool me! Damn, why does this always seem to happen? Ugh, fine! Until he does something foolish, I'll keep the torture sealed…' Kira thought, not realizing what she's doing.

-Pause!-

Amy-chan- Kira-chan, do you know what you're doing!

Kira- I'm not writing this!

Sengoku- -whistles-

Dan- Let's get back to the story desu…

-Unpause!-

Meanwhile, Kiyosumi, "Konichuwa, minna-chan's," Kiyosumi said, flashing the younger one's a warm smile.

Now, it's not that the young one's weren't interested in Kiyosumi, for no one could ever resist him, demo… They recalled what their buchou told them and…

-flash back-

'Freshmen, if at least one of you falls for that monkey brained pip squeak, you will all have to run 100 laps, got it!' Kira said, angrily.

'H-hai!' the freshmen said, with a jump.

'Good… dismissed,' Kira said, firmly.

She then left the nearly crying freshmen.

-end of flashback-

"Konichuwa…" they all said, dully.

Kiyosumi eyed them confused.

'Hmm… Kira-chan must've threatened them…' Kiyosumi said, with a smile.

He sat, Indian style, and stared at the younger ones.

The girls eyed him suspiciously.

"Kira-buchou, might have told you bad things about me, demo… I hope that doesn't stop you from being friends with me," Kiyosumi said, with a warm smile.

Kira witnessed the scene and sighed.

She had to admit, she was touched. She didn't think Kiyosumi could be so gentle to the younger ones.

The younger ones then realized she was watching then pretended not to care about Kiyosumi.

Kiyosumi frowned.

Kira sighed and went over to them.

"Girls…" Kira called, as she walked up to them.

"Hai, buchou?" they all said at ones.

"Forget what I said… Just have fun training with fuku buchou, ne?" Kira said, defeated.

The girls' faces brightened up.

They ran to their buchou and hugged her, they then realized what they were doing and got back into a straight line.

"Gomenasai!" they chorused, with a bow.

Kira just nodded, then turned to Kiyosumi who was flashing her a warm smile.

"That was nice…" Kiyosumi commented.

Kira nodded at him too, then turned away from him, covering her slightly pink cheeks.

"Okay, to start…" Kiyosumi begun, once he found Kira gone. "Let's give out introductions. Umm… you first…" Kiyosumi said, looking at the girl with the bow.

"Ano… I'm Makino Kyoko," the girl said, with a smile.

Makino Kyoko was a shy girl, but was amazingly persistent when playing tennis.

"Katagawa Meiko," said the long haired girl, with a gentle smile.

Katagawa Meiko was the daughter of a famous artist. Using what she has learned in art, she studies the art of playing styles to improve her tennis.

"Kurusagi Rukia, konichuwa," said the cheery girl.

Kurusagi Rukia may look like a girl that just wants to have fun, demo… she's dead serious when it comes to tennis.

"And you?" Kiyosumi said, flashing the dim looking girl a smile.

"…Saeki Kanna…" said the girl, dimly.

Saeki Kanna was the sister of Saeki Kojirou. Nobody is aware why she was put to Yamabuki, instead of Rokkaku, demo some say it's because of the matter that she lived with her mother, while Kojirou lives with his father.

"Saeki? Any relation to Saeki Kojirou of Rokkaku?" Kiyosumi asked, politely.

"…Urusai… you do not speak his name in front of me," Kanna ordered, giving Kiyosumi a disgusted look.

'Ugh! What did this brat just say!' Kiyosumi thought, angered.

"Ne… you shouldn't talk to a senpai like that…" Kiyosumi said, gritting his teeth with a forced smile.

"What? Just because you're a bit older than me, doesn't give me the right to say as I please?" Kanna stated, glaring at him.

"Why you-" Kiyosumi stopped in midsentence for he was hit in the head by something very hard.

What turned out to be that very hard thing, was a clip board.

"Kiyosumi…" came an angry voice.

Kira signaled to follow her, without say.

Kiyosumi nodded and followed quietly.

When they were finally alone, Kira started.

"Kiyosumi, what was that I just saw back there?" Kira scolded.

"It's not my fault it's that girl's-"

"That girl is mentally hurt, Kiyosumi!" Kira yelled, but only loud enough for he to hear.

"….Nani?" Kiyosumi asked, not knowing what she means.

"Her parent's are separated… and since she's living with her mother, the mother has stated lies about her brother, and… she has hated him ever since… Get me?" Kira explained, quietly.

Kiyosumi looked at her seriously.

"Wow… It's as if you know her so-"

"Well? …I do Kiyosumi… It's my job, as captain… I didn't want to interfere with Kanna-chan's life, demo… it was affecting her so much that I couldn't help myself from interfering… I was happy… that she finally opened her heart… since she hasn't done so for a very long time…" Kira said, her eyes watering.

"Kira-chan…" Kiyosumi said gently, as he leaned to hug Kira.

Kira dropped her clip-board and sobbed on Kiyosumi's chest.

'I guess Kira-chan's still hurt… it's been a while though… I guess Kira-chan's not as strong as she looks…' Kiyosumi thought as he continued to comfort her.

"Gomen, I don't know what came over me," Kira said, separating herself from Kiyosumi, whipping away her tears.

Kiyosumi looked at her pitiful.

"You know… It's okay to cry… Nobody's stopping you from expressing how you feel…" Kiyosumi said, gently.

Kira looked at him, shocked at what he just said.

She felt her tears run down her cheeks again.

She ran to Kiyosumi and again sobbed on his chest.

"Kira… how I wish I could have helped you in the past… If I was there, by your side… the pain you'd have had would only just be a mere memory… and nothing more…" Kiyosumi said, hugging her tightly.

Kira continued to cry on his chest.

'Nande…? Why aren't I fighting back anymore…? I'm supposed to hate Kiyosumi… Nande…? Doshte…? Why is he treating me so gently…? I don't like what I'm feeling right now… If I feel for you any further… I'll get hurt more than I already am… Onegai, Kiyosumi… Don't make me feel for you any further…' Kira thought, sobbing harder.

Kira sniffed, and looked at Kiyosumi.

"Look at me… I'm such a fool… I was planning on giving you the ultimate torture, demo… it backfired on me…" Kira said, with a light chuckle.

Kiyosumi just gave a gentle smile.

"Gambate kudasai…" Kiyosumi mumbled.

Kira looked at him, not knowing what he meant.

"You're not a fool… Good luck in figuring that out…" Kiyosumi said, his smile not fading.

Kira had never seen him smile with so much care… she felt her tears come out again, but forced them back in.

"Ano… we should get back to our post," Kira said, fixing herself up.

"Are you sure…? If you want, I can take care of the team, while you head on home," Kiyosumi said, with a concerned expression.

"Domo, Kiyosumi, demo… the Kantou regional competitions are coming up, and I need to take care of some business," Kira said, picking up her clip-board.

"Aa… sokka… demo… Let me walk you home afterwards, ne?" Kiyosumi asked, with a smile.

Kira chuckled.

"Kiyosumi… we live next door, remember? I don't even have to make a say in that," Kira said, with a smile.

Kiyosumi just smiled.

"Nani?" Kira asked, wondering what the smile was for.

"…It's the first time I've seen you… smile from your heart…" Kiyosumi commented, his eyes showing happiness.

"Kiyosumi, I…" Kira started, turning slightly pink.

Kiyosumi nodded, and walked with her back to the court.

'Iie… I will not fall for him… no matter what my heart tells me…' Kira thought, as she walked back to the courts.

-Pause!-

Kira- -whispers- Gomen, that I'm whispering. It's just that Kiyosumi is asleep and I don't want to wake him up… I'm not sure if Dan and Amy-cha-

Amy-chan & Dan- -whispers- We're awake…

Kira- -not surprised look- -whispers- Well… I wanted to apologize that I didn't give him the torture I promised, demo… It's just because this is a drama and… I'm giving away too much funny-

Amy-chan- 'I' am giving too much funny… -grins-

Kira- -annoyed look- I now see why Kiyosumi argues with you… -looks at Kiyosumi-

Sengoku- ….ZZzzzzz….

Kira- -thinks- kowaii!

Amy-chan- Hmm… Well… I guess that's all for today…

Dan- Hai desu. Please review desu.

Amy-chan- Domo arigato for taking your time for reading the story :D

Kira- Gomenasai, again!

Sengoku- ….Zzzzz…. Evil monkeys…. Zzzzzz….

-Unpause!-

-Owari-
