Soo.. I had a family dinner tonight at my Grandmas house. I'm showing my little sister the movements to a backhand…and my Grandma's neighbor started waving at me… Just a little amused with that… lol

I don't know how my updates will go tomorrow, since my practice starts tomorrow… we'll see…. Cause I may have OCD for fan fics.. but I am an obsessive tennis player too…..

Chapter 5

So lunch had been eventful. Along with the remainder of class.

He had been sent out into the hall for not paying attention, and it just seemed like the entire world was plotting something today.

"Maybe I shouldn't have stopped by that school.." He mumbled to himself as he grabbed his things to go home. No point on staying when afternoon practice was also 'Regulars Only.'

Though he supposed that wasn't such a bad thing today, as his mind would probably be else where. "Probably get hit in the face or something.."

'I don't care what the Senpai think.. I don't like Echizen…he's my friend..Yes, that's all. My friend…. My very good looking friend…wait, NO."

Momo shook his head There was no way he just thought that. He settled on blaming it on his Senpai. They had been messing with his mind a lot today. He had, after all, sat through Eiji-Senpai's speech on how he and 'Ochibi' would be so cute together after he had been so careless as to let the red head read the note.

"What have I told you Horio? No one cares how many years you've been playing! 20 laps!"

An annoyed, yet familiar, voice brought him back to reality.

Momo was back at the Jr. High.

He quickly sped up his pace. This was not the place he wanted to be right now. He wanted to be home, in his bed. Or at least on his bed. Just laying there with his face in the pillow.

The rest of the way home was a blur. He couldn't remember much of what he was thinking of.

The next few hours were no better. The next thing he knew, was he had his cell out along with the paper from Horio, and he was dialing the number.

"Senpai? You actually called?"

"What, no hello?" Momo said. The third year had caught him off guard.

"Hello."

"That's more like it."
I do not like Echizen.

"Right…So are you interested in coming to the match tomorrow?"

"I…Yeah."
But it's not because I like Echizen.

"Hold on a second." Horio said quickly to him, and Momo heard him talking to someone in the background. "Yeah... … see you tomorrow Echizen." He voice became louder as the phone came up to his face again.

Now Momo was fighting an internal battle, having heard Echizens name.

He wrote down the information that Horio told him, and then right before they hung up, his did something he couldn't believe.

"By the way, Momo-chan. Why did you show up?"

"Because of Echizen. I think I like him, okay? Bye."

..And he hung up. And then he groaned.

As if Horio could keep a secret.
