Genre: General, slight romance, slight angst

Pairing: Tezuka and Fuji

Warnings or notes: One-shot, OOC-ness, minor anime spoilers, grammar and other errors (English is not my mother tongue), 350 words and pointless plot.

Back to TezuFuji! Tezuka is hard to write, I know I mentioned it before. But I can't help to say this again. Oh yeah, did anyone know that 350 words are actually the standard in examination for Malaysian SPM students? It seems short in my opinion. :grins:

Please review ne? Thank you.

8th - Unfavorable

"What's your favorite color?"

Whenever someone asked him that, Tezuka Kunimitsu merely answered 'Blue or green'. He could not decide whether he liked blue more than green or vice versa. It was just a color to him anyway. Should he care to think more on such useless question? He had far more important things to attend to, he mused. Answering such question would be Inui Sadaharu's job instead of his.

"Ne Tezuka, blue or green? Choose one," a soft voice said behind of him, reminding him not to let his guard down again next time. Fuji Syusuke always managed to sneak behind him even if his guard was up though. Being a genius really paid off, apparently.

"Why bother?"

Hastily, Tezuka turned and decided to counter Fuji with another question. His evasive reply only earned a chuckle from the sandy-haired boy.

"Do I need a reason to?"

Fuji replied using Tezuka's evasive technique of answering his question, which it pissed Tezuka a little. Mind games were included in his list of dislikes, did he ever mention it? Ignoring Fuji's question, Tezuka thrust his belongings into his bag and slung it over his shoulder before he stepped out from the clubhouse. Fuji, who was smiling knowingly, immediately grabbed his bag and went after their captain. They heard their vice-captain's voice saying he would lock the door and bid them goodbye.

"I think you prefer blue more."

Still, Fuji did not want to let him off, did he? He had had enough of the question and Fuji's persistence.

"What made you think so?"

'Answering a question by asking another. Tezuka, you've learned how to play my games by my rules now, haven't you?' Thinking silently, Fuji's grin went broader. "Urm… instincts?" Fuji replied innocently.

Tezuka stopped in his tracks and stared at Fuji, who opened his eyes to reveal a pair of sapphire gem-like eyes. Sharp, observant, serious, collected… and Tezuka realized there was something else that held within the gaze.

"… Perhaps you are right."

At that moment, green seemed to be a less favorable color if compared to blue in Tezuka's opinion.
