Recap:

Sakuno immediately stood up apologized to Ryoma and went downstairs to pick the phone up. "Moshi moshi, Ryuzaki residence" Sakuno greeted as she picked up the phone. "Sakuno, it's me" greeted the person who was none other than her grandmother.

"Sakuno, I won't be able to go home tonight because of the storm, will you be alright?" Her grandmother asked worriedly. "Hai! Ryoma-kun is here!" She proudly and happily replied to her grandmother. "Ryoma? What is he doing there?" Asked her grandmother surprised.

"It's a long story Obaa-chan, but don't worry ill be okay" Sakuno replied trying to make sure that her grandmother knew that she'll be fine. "Well if you so, ill be arriving home tomorrow morning" Sakuno's grandmother said. "Hai Obaa-chan, Ja" Sakuno said. "Ja!" Her grandmother bid as she placed the phone back to where it was.

She returned to her room.

Prince Of My Heart

Chapter 4

Sakuno was quite nervous for this is the first time she'll be at home alone and with the prince of her dreams. She went back to her room feeling embarrassed that she will be alone with the so called prince.

"Ryoma-kun….Obaa-chan called and….Ano…." She embarrassedly said as she entered the room and went closer to the prince, who was still resting on her bed. Ryoma just looked at her as he stood up from the bed and seated on it. He waited for her to continue what she was saying.

"Ano….S…she told me that…..that she wouldn't be….be…." She nervously said as she closed her eyes in embarrassment.

"She wouldn't what?" Ryoma asked bored. Seeing the girl standing there, blushing and shaking from nervousness. "She wouldn't…be c…coming h…home t…tonight!" She nervously and loudly said. Ryoma just stared at her as a response.

"Okay then, ill just g-go to bed now, Goodnight" She nervously said as she stepped out of the door until… The Prince called her.

"Oi!" He called as his hands signaled her to come closer. She just went closer and asked what he wanted.

But just her luck she slipped and landed on top of Ryoma! She blushed furiously as she saw the prince's face a few centimeters apart from her. Was Kami-sama against her? She always gets to situations like this especially when around Ryoma. Isn't she happy to be with the prince this close?

"G-Gomen, R…Ryoma-kun!" She shouted nervously as she closed her eyes once again with the same reasons. She tried to get up from their romantic position but of course only one person disagreed with it, its none other than the prince himself! Ryoma wrapped his arms around her thin waist.

"Mou! Ryoma-kun let go of me!" She protested as she tried to get out from his hold.

"Yada, this is your room, right?" He asked sarcastically. "It is, why?" She asked with a cute pout on her pretty face. She still tried to loosen from his strong hold.

"If this is your room that means you're suppose to sleep here, right?" He sarcastically said as he tightened his grip on her. She didn't response to his statement; she was too busy outgripping Ryoma from her. "Then that means we'll be sleeping together?" Ryoma asked with a mischievous grin plastered on his face.

"N-Nani?! What are talking about?!" She said as she freaked out of what he recently said. "If you want me to sleep here, then sleep downstairs!!" She commanded.

"Yada, its more comfortable here" He persistently said with the same expression on his face. "D-Demo!" She protested as she tried harder to loose his grip on her.

"Don't you like to sleep with me?" He innocently said as he stared at her. "Iie!!" She answered.

Sakuno was moving too much for Ryoma to be able to hold her in one place. And because of that, they both fell on the floor.

But now Ryoma was on top of Sakuno. Sakuno stared at the prince who was on top of her. She was within the strong arms of the prince.

Ryoma took this chance. He wanted to do this ever since his feeling for her changed. Ryoma then lowered his head so it'll be a few centimeters apart. He stared at Sakuno's pink and soft looking lips.

'Will it be as soft as it looks?' Ryoma thought for himself as he lowered his head and closed his amber eyes, ready to have his first kiss.

His ranging hormones can't take it anymore. He needs to; he wants to feel her pink lips on his own.

'Nani?! What is Ryoma-kun doing?!' Sakuno thought as she saw Ryoma's head lower and headed for her face. She was in total shock to see the 'Ryoma Echizen' trying to kiss her.

Sakuno wanted to protest but her body didn't obey. Her mind wanted to push the prince away but her body didn't follow. She closed her eyes; she decided she wanted to receive a kiss from the prince.

Ryoma on the other hand opened his left eye and saw the girl with closed eyes. He thought she did want a kiss from him. At first he only did it for fun but it seems Sakuno took it seriously.

"I was only kidding" He lied as he stood up from their position and stared at her. He did want to kiss her but for some reason he was able to control his hormones.

'Damn Hormones' He shouted in his mind. He pretended that it was some kind of joke.

'Che, I cant believe she wanted me to...to do that' Ryoma thought as he twitched.

"Mou! Ryoma-kun!" Sakuno cutely protested as she stared back with a cute pout on her face. Her blush was very visible.

"Why? Do really want me to kiss you that bad?" He said as he seated on her bed and was followed by a smirk plastered upon his handsome features.

"I-Iie! I-I just" She started as she shuttered and stood up from her position and stared at both of her foot as her face was flushed at the Tennis Prince's words.

"Hn… Whatever, I'm going to the bathroom…" He lazily said as he turned back from her, as he walked straight to the so called bathroom and closed the wooden door shut as if he owned the place. He didn't even ask permission?

Sakuno, well she decided to prepare the couch where one of them will be sleeping.

Moments later Ryoma exited the bathroom and quickly searched for an auburn girl with two pigtails. He noticed that she was lying in the couch asleep as she waited for the prince to finish using the bathroom.

Ryoma snorted and walked near her and using both his strong arms he carried her 'Bridal Style' to the bed.

When he dropped her to the soft and spacious bed, he turned around to sleep on the couch and glanced back at Sakuno as weakly and silently 'Hmph'ed as he continued followed by a sincere smile, a true smile in his lips.

He then settled at couch and slept soundly.

(A/N: I guess the thing about sleeping with her is a Joke? Or is it? You'll just have to find out.)

Moments later, Ryoma's eyes slowly opened. He then stood in a sitting position and lightly rubbed his temple.

He looked around. There he saw the petite auburn girl was shivering from the cold atmosphere. He slowly approached the Sakuno as he slightly rubbed his blurred eyes and looked at her angelic features as he was getting nearer by the second.

When he was standing aside of her, he knelt down and gently and slowly caressed the soft and clear cheek of the girl. In the process small smile flashed upon his face.

He quickly and slowly lifted the soft blanket and pulled it to her not wanting to wake the petite girl up.

He stayed at that position for a long time. He didn't even know how long he stared at her.

He sighed and before he was able to stand up, he felt her shiver again. He sighed once more and a small smirk appeared on his face as he decided to give her warmth that not even a thousand blankets can overpass. 'Body Heat'.

As he slipped in the bed with her, he immediately pulled her petite body close to him and slowly closed his eyes but he immediately retreated his closing his eyes as he felt the auburn girl snuggle against him and mumbled….

"Ryoma-kun…."

He then slept peacefully with the auburn girl in his arms.

Next Morning….

-7 A.M.-

The sun was shining brightly as Ryoma opened his eyes gently and smiled upon seeing the girls still in his arms. He started to arise from his sleeping form but then….

Suddenly the door burst open. There stood none other than Ryuzaki Sakuno's Grandmother, Ryuzaki Sumire.

The looked on her face seemed like the whole Seigaku tennis club lost a game with Ginka, the team who forfeited the because of their fake stomach aches.

"Care to Explain?" She impatiently asked with closed and irritated eyes.

"…"

Sakuno slowly woke up. It was surprising that she woke up because of her grandmother's angry tone rather than be woken by the noise of the busted door made.

She yawned and stretched her arms and slightly rubbed her right eye with her right hand.

"Well?" Her grandmother asked as she looked at Ryoma with narrow eyes. She stood still by the door, still with the very angry face and then her eyes were averted to her precious granddaughter.

"Doushite Obaa-san?" She asked in curiosity as she was still rubbing her eyes. Then her chocolate eyes averted to the person next to her.

"R-Ryoma-kun?!" She asked in surprise as she realized what her Obaa-san meant.

"W-what are y-you doing h-h-ere?!" She asked, still with the same expression.

"Care to explain, Ryoma?" Sakuno's grandmother asked.

Ryoma ignored the question and slowly stood up from the bed and faced the angry woman.

"Che. Don't worry Ryuzaki-sensei, we didn't do anything" Ryoma said confidently.

He then bent down to whisper something into Sakuno's ear.

"…yet" He continued as he whispered it in her ear then smirked and walked pass his Tennis coach leaving Sakuno as red as a tomato.

"What did he say?" The coach asked as her faced was full of curiosity.

"B-B-Betsuni…" She nervously said as she her grandmother shrugged.

"Well if you say so, just get ready for school…You still have an hour to prepare for school" Her grandmother continued as she turned her back and went downstairs to prepare Breakfast.

(A/N: Let's Just pretend that school starts at 8 A.M.)

Sakuno was still dumbfounded of what happened and the 'word' that the Prince said after he reasoned for sleeping with the same bed as her.

'Was that a dream?' She asked herself. 'It can't be true…Ryoma-kun would never…' She continued without finishing her sentence for she was surprised with the sudden events.

It took Sakuno a minute to register what happened and started preparing for school.

When she finished taking a bath and putting on her school uniform, she immediately went downstairs and glanced at the wall clock as she continued walking towards the kitchen to eat breakfast.

It Read '7:40'

She quickened her pace and she noticed that Ryoma was no where to be seen.

'Maybe he left already…'

She frowned at the thought as she hurried finishing her meal.

"Better hurry up Sakuno, you'll be late" Her grandmother announced as she came in view.

"Hai, How about you Obaa-san?" Sakuno asked as she ate the last piece of her bread ad stood up.

"No need to worry, I'm not yet needed in school… Maybe you'll see me this afternoon at the tennis courts" She answered as she smiled, Sakuno smiled back.

"If you say so…" She said as she picked her bento and started walking towards the door.

"Ja! Obaa-san!" Sakuno bid as she stepped outside their door.

"Took you long enough…" Someone said with a bored tone he then sipped on his drink, not looking at the girl.

"R-Ryoma-kun!.. But I thought you already left?" She said as she slowly worked closer to the Prince.

"Hn" He simply replied and started walking away, not feeling the auburn's presence following him; He faced back with a bored look.

"Are you coming or not?" The prince asked and waited for her answer.

"Um… Hai!" She answered confidently and caught up on him as he also started walking towards school.

At School

Sakuno and Ryoma walked their way to school together. Almost every student who saw them stared with surprised faces.

"Hey, isn't that Ryoma Echizen? What is he doing with that girl?!" A random girl whispered to another girl.

"No idea, maybe he just pitied her" She answered.

"Didn't know that 'The Ryoma Echizen' liked those kind of girls…I pity her" A boy said as he and his friends walked by and was stooped at the scene before them.

"Yeah Me too, maybe he'll replace her with another in a week!" His friend blurted out as they continued walking.

And gossips continued as they walked pass by students.

Sakuno heard their conversations and almost felt like crying. She forced herself not to cry and clenched her fist to confident herself.

'What if Ryoma-kun is….' She thought as she bit her lip and closed her eyes. 'No Ryoma-kun isn't like that…' Sakuno convinced herself as she continued walking to class.

"I'm going to class now…" Ryoma announced with a bored tone as he started to head a different pathway from her.

"Hai, Arigatou Ryoma-kun for walking me to school" She said as she faced the retreating form of the Prince.

"Hn…" He replied without turning his back.

'Ryoma-kun is so weird…' She started to think. 'Just last night, he was playing a joke on me…Why the sudden mood-swings?' She thought maturely and then sighed to herself as she started to go to her on class.

Inside the Classroom

Sakuno walked inside the classroom full of laughter from different students. She walked towards her sit and noticed her best friend seated beside her chair, staring outside the window.

"Ohayou Tomo-chan!" Sakuno greeted happily toward her best friend. Her Best Friend didn't reply and just continued watching the view outside the window.

"Ano…Tomo-chan?" Sakuno asked her best friend with a worried expression as she stepped closer to her.

When Tomoka felt someone touched her shoulder she was a bit startled, and look straight at the person who touched her shoulder.

"Daijoubu?" Sakuno asked as she saw her friend looked at her with the same worried expression.

"Iie…Nandemonai…." Tomoka said as she stood from her seat and excused herself.

"Gomen…I need to go to the ladies room…." She said as she went pass Sakuno with an uncaring expression written all over her face as she proceeded towards the ladies room.

Sakuno was dumbfounded at the scene.

'Tomo-chan…Doushite?' Sakuno thought nervously as she still stood the same position as when her Best Friend left her.

She went to sit on her chair sadly.

LUNCH

Girls Tennis Club Room

Sakuno's so called Best Friend, Tomoka Osakada was busy fixing her tennis equipment in the room before heading for lunch. She heard her senpais and a classmate gossiping.

--

"Hey, Did you hear that Ryoma-sama walked a girl to school, this morning?!" a Girl who was distinguished as a member of the tennis club for girls She had brown hair up in a high Ponytail.

Tomoka was completely shocked when she heard that Ryoma walked a girl to school a while ago. But still she continued fixing her equipments and also continued listening to the girls.

"Yeah! I even saw it!! Can you believe that girl had the guts to walk side by side by 'The Ryoma-sama'?! MY Ryoma-sama?!" Another girl said with a frustrated and angry tone. She had curly blond hair.

"Well, I heard that she isn't really a bad person…As a matter of fact she is always quite…" A young girl who was in the same class as Sakuno defended. She had a very soft and cute voice.

"She is just flirting with him! She knows my Ryoma-sama doesn't like noisy girls!" The blond protested as she continued arguing with the other two girls.

"And we all know that my Ryoma-sama likes girls with braids! Why did you think she wears braids?!" The blond continued.

(A/N: Well I'm not sure with the type of girl Ryoma likes but I had done research and says that Ryoma likes girls suited to wear braids. But I'm not sure about what type of attitudes of girls he likes)

'Quiet?!...Braids?!' Tomoka gasped, was stopped from what she was recently doing and realized who the girl they were talking about was.

"I even heard she was flirting with one of the Seigaku Regulars! Can you believe that?! I heard they even dated?! The nerve of that girl!?" The blond continued to babble, not letting the two other girls say their opinion or even let them speak.

"Well I heard that this regular was Seigaku's tensai, Fuji Syusuke" A girl with glasses appeared before them.

"No way?!" The girl with brown hair in a ponytail protested.

"Okay she is so going over board! She's such a whore! Do you believe that she even flirted with him?! My Fuji-kun is even two years older than her?! I'll believe if she'll flirt with Echizen but why a person older than her?!" She shouted and continued to complain.

'Does she mean the time when Fuji-senpai walked Sakuno home?' She thought as she planned to continue listening to their gossiping.

'So that means the girl that Ryoma-sama walked to school with is…' She thought as she stopped at the last part.

"Sakuno…" She mumbled.
