Author's Notes (1): Okay, I needed to get this out of my head so I can continue with my other fics! Hope you enjoy!


Title: What Atobe Heard


Atobe sighed as he, Kabaji, and Oshitari walked past a gaggle of girls talking with each other as they walked through the tennis park. From the corner of his eye, he could see that the girls were looking his way. With a weary sigh, he waited to hear the expected sighs of his perfection.

"Did you just get a good look at him? Isn't he cute?"

"He is so dreamy!"

"Just look at him walk- he walks with a presence!"

"That is just so cute!"

"I just want to take him home!"

Atobe glanced at his companions. "As usual, females are in awe over ore-sama again, neh, Kabaji?"

"Usu."

Oshitari was amused as he looked at his friend. "Are you so sure that they in awe over you, Atobe?"

Atobe lifted an eyebrow at his friend. "And who else would they be squealing about?"

"Do you think we can touch him?"

"He looks just so perfect- we might spoil him if we touch him!"

"I rest my case," Atobe smirked. "Neh, Kabaji?"

"Usu."

Oshitari simply smirked. "And I beg to differ."

"And why would you do that?" Atobe said frostily. "They are clearly in awe of ore-sama and his physical perfection. Shall I show you how loud they will squeal when I grace them with ore-sama's presence?"

Just has Atobe was about to turn, the girls squealed again.

"Look- he's coming this way! Quick catch him!"

"If we catch him I want to put him in a dress! He would look cuter in a dress!"

"A frilly dress to match his eyes!"

"What?" Atobe gasped as he froze where he stood. Shocked, he looked at Oshitari who was having a hard time containing his mirth. He was just about to suggest that they walk quickly away when another squeal pierced the air.

"I caught him! Oh, aren't you a darling!"

"Isn't he just precious!"

Whirling around, Atobe's jaw nearly dropped as he stared at the gaggle of girls cooing over a small pet monkey dressed in a bellman's outfit. "Ah?"

"Let's find his owner and ask if we can put him in a dress!"

As the girls left in haste with the monkey in tow, Atobe shook his head in stupor. He lifted his head when he felt a hand on his shoulder. Still stunned, he looked at Oshitari who nodded solemnly. "It seems that there is a new Monkey King to replace ore-sama, Atobe. Shall we go over and have you demand the title back?"

His eyebrow twitching, Atobe let out a small chuckle. "No, ore-sama will show his generosity and relinquish that title to him, neh, Kabaji?"

"Usu."

Oshitari let out a laugh. "As ore-sama wishes. Neh, Kabaji?"

"Usu."

As the three resume walking, Atobe cleared his throat. "And ore-sama will certainly show his lesser side if any Regular other than the ones here finds out about it. Neh, Kabaji?"

"Usu."

"Oh, you wouldn't have to worry about the Regulars finding out about it from me, Atobe," Oshitari chuckled. "Mizuki from was trailing us in the bushes and heard the whole thing. No doubt that he'll tell everyone before the day is over."
