Stringer 13: I'm really sorry that I haven't updated. The reason was well . . . . . . . . . . . . . my grandma passed away. It really had a big affect on me and I didn't want to type this. Sorry for that, but I really was sad with this. Well this chapter is with my favorite pairing Shin x Sena. I just think it is so cute. I don't know why there are so many more Hiruma x Sena instead if Shin x Sena because they make so many hints that Shin likes Sena. I like Hiruma x Sena a lot also, but not nearly as much as Shin x Sena. Well just to tell you, after I do one chapter with each character, I'm going to start doing regular fictions again. Just to tell you next is Kid. Well here is the next chapter. Please read and review. The reviews would really cheer me up. Oh and I made this chapter a lot longer to make up for my absence.

Shin

Sena was troubled. Recently he had found out he had some feelings for the star linebacker of the Oujo White Knights. He had just talked to Mamori a few days ago and he had found out this surprising conclusion.

Flashback

Sena had just walked to Mamori's house because he was having some serious problems.

"What's up Sena?" asked Mamori pinching Sena's cheek slightly. Sena pouted slightly and sat down on the couch.

"Mamori-neesan……… I've been having some strange dreams lately and I was wondering if you could help me out with them." Sena explained.

"Alright tell me what the problem is and I'll do my best to help" she replied helpfully.

"Well the problem is I'vebeenhavingwetdreams," he said a little too quickly.

"What was that Sena? I couldn't here you." Mamori said. Sena felt lie he was going to die of embarrassment. His face was as red as a cherry now. He just wanted to disappear right now and spare himself of saying this again.

"I said that I was having wet dreams about someone," Sena explained. He closed his eyes not wanting to know Mamori's disgusted reaction. He decided that he had to be brave and opened his eyes. What he saw shocked them. Mamori had an excited glint in her eyes.

"Oh Sena, I have been waiting for this day, the day where you would finally grow up. I'm so proud of you!" Mamori exclaimed all excited.

"Proud of me? No offense Mamori-neesan, but you have a sick mind," Sena said with a disgusted look on his face. "I didn't know you were a perv."

"Sena now is not the time to come to such conclusions," Mamori said with a blush on her cheeks. "Now anyway Sena who is it that you have a crush on? Is it Suzuna?" she asked clearly excited.

"Um no…….."

"Is it that cute girl in your class named Akira?" (Not a real character.)

"That's not who it is either."

"Then who is it?" she asked mildly confused.

"Um Mamori-neesan, I've already told my parents this but I'm kind of attracted to guys," Sena said. Mamori had a shocked look on her face.

"Don't tell me……" Sena closed his eyes expecting to see a disgusted face, "you can't be attracted to Hiruma." Sena then fell over anime style. He wasn't expecting that, that was for sure.

"NO!" Sena managed to sputter out.

"Oh that's good. I was worried there for a second. Well who is it, Riku or something, because that would be really cute? Am I right? Tell me I'm right!" she yelled.

"Um no. I kind of like Shin-san," he explained.

"So it's that strong linebacker right? He could protect you. Well anyway, it's perfectly natural to have these dreams. You like this guy a lot right? Then you should go to ask someone he knows well and ask them for advice, okay?"

Flashback ends

Sena currently was standing outside the Oujo White Knights field to look for Sakuraba. He knew that the pop idol was the closest thing Shin had to a friend. He looked around to make sure Shin wasn't around. He didn't want him to know what he was here. It would be really awkward. He turned around a corner and bumped into someone. He looked up to see the very person he wanted to avoid, Shin.

"Kobayakawa Sena, what are you doing here?" Shin asked his rival with a raised eyebrow.

"Ano Shin-san, I actually came here to see Sakuraba-san. Can you tell me where he is?" Sena asked patiently. Shin simply nodded before pointing Sena in the direction Sakuraba usual hung out at after practice. He felt a quick pang inside when he heard it was Sakuraba instead of him that the Eyeshield wanted to see.

Maybe he hadn't ingested the necessary amount of food, although it was unlikely. He just ignored and continues to jog around the field.

Sena kept on jogging to the destination that Shin had pointed to until he saw an awkward sight. In front of him was Sakuraba being pressed against a tree by the Oujo quarterback Takami. Sena first thought that they were having a fight but then when he looked closer, he saw that that wasn't the case at all.

Sakuraba noticed Sena looking at them and had a slightly panicked look on his face. He pushed Takami away and gave Sena a sheepish look.

"Ah hi Sena-kun," said Sakuraba awkwardly. Sena just nodded dumbly in response as he blinked a few times to make sure what he saw wasn't just an illusion.

"Hi Sakuraba-san, how are you doing?" he said still blinking.

"I'm fine Sena-kun. Did you need something?" asked Sakuraba.

"Um yeah……….. can I speak with you in private please?" Sena asked hopefully. He needed this advice, and he needed it bad.

"Alright, I'll see you tomorrow Takami-san." Sakuraba said while waving at his senior, before vanishing with Sena.

"Ano, Sakuraba-san you and Takami-san are in a relationship right?" asked Sena. Sakuraba nodded blushing shyly. "Then I'm sure you can help me."

"Who do you have a relationship with Sena-kun?" asked Sakuraba truly curious.

"That's the thing Sakuraba-san. I like someone but they don't know, so I thought I should ask someone really close to them," he explained.

"Don't tell me it's Shin isn't it?" Sakuraba said like it was a known fact by everyone. Sena looked at him shocked.

"How did you know?" asked Sena surprised.

"Oh were you trying to hide it or something? It was kind of obvious," said Sakuraba. "Oh, well do you have any advice for me? I'm kind if desperate."

"Well truthfully Shin is kind of oblivious to everything except football and school. He probably won't understand it a first, but I know he likes you, so you don't have to worry too much. Just go look for him, and leave the rest to me," Sakuraba ordered. Sena nodded his head not wanting to feel the wrath of the wide receiver.

Sena looked all around the school ground to find the linebacker as Sakuraba had told him to. He finally found him looking at the stars on a hill. He just realized that he had stayed at Oujo for a few hours and that it was already dark out. He was about to walk down to the spot where Shin was sitting and was about to join him, like he intended too but he was tripped by someone in he bushes and fell head first towards the hill. He looked as he was falling to see Sakuraba grinning at him. He yelped as he was falling to the ground.

Shin looked up as he heard a yell and saw his rival tumbling to the ground. He ran to the boy before he fell to the ground. Sena looked up at his savior with a grateful look in his eyes. Shin looked down to see his chibi rival in his arms and felt a strange feeling in his chest. He didn't know why, but he liked the others body against his chest. Not wanting this feeling to go away, he sat down with Sena in his lap. Sena blushed and shrunk into Shin's lap.

"Ano, Shin-san could you please let me go, you're crushing my arms," said Sena. It was true Shin had a tough grip on his arms, ever since he had grabbed him before the fall. Shin nodded, being his usual quiet self. Honestly though, he didn't want to let go of Sena. He felt so right in his arms, like they were a perfect fit. What was with him recently? He was acting strange since Eyeshield got here and it was driving him crazy. It was getting rather aggravating as well. He clenched his fists together. He had had enough of this. He truly didn't know why but he didn't let Sena out of his lap.

Instead of doing that, he decided he wanted to kiss him, and he did just that, leaving Sena as red as a cherry. "Shin-san why did you do that?" asked Sena.

Shin really didn't know the answer to that however and just said "I did that ………. because it is an exercise that will make our jaw muscles stronger."

Sena nodded. That sounded like a Shin answer to him so it must have been true.

"Kobayakawa Sena I think it would be beniftial for us both if we keep doing this exercise every day, so we can master this technique together," Shin said. Sena slowly nodded his head. He didn't mind this exercise.

"May I do another exercise that I have been trying to do?" asked Shin. Sena nodded. "Alright which direction do you live in?" Sena pointed in a direction and without a word Shin picked Sena up, put him on his shoulder and ran to Sena's house.
