Note: Sorry this is short, but since Valentine's Day is coming up soon, I've decided to write a short RyoSaku Valentine's day story. So, I will not be editing this until it's published (which hopefully wont talk long) because I waited to long to get started, and Valentine's Day is creeping up on me. Don't worry, I should be back to writing this story by the end of the week.

---------------------------------------

"Okay, okay where's the girl?" Nanjiro asked his former sensei, impatiently. "Well...follow me." She answered hesitantly, leading him to a room behind the stage. It used to be used to store extra props aside from the ones stored next door. She sighed before turning the knob. 'Oh this is going to be good...if only Ryoma were here.'

"Okay...where is she...and why is there a dog in here?!"

"Haha...um funny story. Well, she's your date."

"Haha...now seriously...where is she?"

"You're looking at her...and by her I don't mean me."

"WHAT?! You lying, kanifing little-"

"Hold on. I didn't lie."
"YOU SAID SHE WAS A GIRL! A CUTE YOUNG GIRL!"

"She's a girl...go ahead a check. And she's very young, and isn't she just the cutest little thing you've ever laid your eyes on?"
"No! The cutest little thing I've ever laid my eyes on is the girl on the cover of last week's playboy magazine!"

"Are you sure it wasn't perverted monks magazine? Because that seems better suited for you."

"There is no way I'm doing this."

"Too late, you already agreed."

"I don't care! NO WAY!"

"Well...you know there's going to be a LOT of disappointed girls when the loose in the bidding, so...they're going to need a shoulder to cry on. You wouldn't want to miss that would you?"

"...Hi you little cutie you! Who's a cute little doggie? You are...that's right...you!"

"I'm glad you see it my way...By the way, her name is Muffy, and there's newspaper on the ground over there. After she uses it, replace it with the ones in the pile next to it. I'll see you later when we prepare her for the auction. Also, brushing her would be great...and you have to do it anyway, so yeah." Sumire added, as she left.

'Why would a dog use newspaper?...they can't read...' Nanjiro sat there for a minute, contemplating his thoughts...then suddenly...his eyes widened and he screamed. "I'LL GET YOU FOR THIS YOU OLD HAG!"

----------------------------------------------------------

"All of the auctionees, report behind the stage immediately!" Sumire yelled through the megaphone once again. 'They don't pay me enough to do this job.'

"It's been 4 hours, and all they've been telling us to do this whole time is go from place to place." Ryoma muttered to Momoshiro. He nodded in response. Just then, Oishi walked by with 2 girls from before, following him.

"Girls, I'd really love to stay but I have to do my job. We'll see eachother after the auction I'm sure..." Oishi said, comforting them again.
"Hai...Oishi-kun." Samantha answered (the reddish-brown haired girl).

"Okay...But we'll miss you." Tina (the blonde haired girl) said.

Momoshiro grunted in anger and disappointment. Mostly disappointment.

"Somebody's a grumpy goose! Cheer up! Nya!" Eiji smiled.

"You're right there are plenty more fish in the sea!" Momoshiro cheered.
"Just none that'd be willing to go out with you." Ryoma added with a smug grin.

"What'd you say?! If this fundraiser wasn't for the good of the school, and your face wasn't going to help, I would mess it up right now!"
"I'd like to see you try..."
"WELL IT'S NOT LIKE YOU'RE GOING TO GET ANY BIDS EVEN IF I DON'T SCREW IT UP!"

"GET TO THE STAGE NOW OR I'LL SCREW BOTH OF YOUR FACES UP!" Sumire screamed.

'How does she always come out of no where?' they both thought.

------------------------------------

(5 minutes later)
"Hello, I'm Tezuka Kunimitsu. Welcome to this year's fundraiser, and auction. It's called, 'Date the Regulars...and other sports' team members...'"

"DATE YOUR SENPAIS!" a person yelled from the crowd.

" I'm captin of the Tennis team here at Seigaku, and I'll be your host today. We have some great guys for you to meet." he continued, reading off the notecard he was given by Sumire. She also told him to smile...but obviously, he didn't. "First up is one of my fellow teammates,-"

To be continued...
