Chapter 4


People love others not for who they are

But how they make them feel.


I as the Narrator in place of Miss Naoto will inform you something important, fellow readers. So pay some of your attention to this.

From now on, almost everyone will refer to each other by their first name. Why? Since that they started to live altogether so that's mean they grows closer to each other.

"Except me. I still call him Usagi-san." said Misaki.

Damn it Misaki, I think it much better if you call him Akihiko-san! Miss Naoto also thinks so! Right, Miss Naoto?

(A/N: Yeah! It's more romantic like that! D:)

*high-five with the Author in agreement*

But for unknown reason, Nowaki will call Akihiko Usagi-san. Maybe he got carried away with Misaki.

"Because I think it's cute!" said Nowaki.

Whatever. Now let's go on to the story! :D

...

Akihiko closed his mouth with his hand to hold himself from laughing, but still he laughed nevertheless. "Pfft... Ha ha ha ha!"

"D-, don't laugh!" Misaki glared to the older man while blushing due to embarrassment.

"My, my, Misaki... Are you really 22 years old? Yet you're still as cute as always!" said Akihiko while playfully giving a noogie to Misaki.

"Shut up! Everyone has their own disabilities! And don't call me cute, that doesn't make me happier!"

"So... You want me to teach you how to swim?"

"Umm, yeah..."

"Then come!" Akihiko dragged Misaki along with him by the arm towards the sea. "Usami-sensei will teach you."

...

Meanwhile, as the Romantica couple proceeded to start the "education", the Egoist couple and the Terrorist had some issues to settle on...

"We all shall play volleyball doubles now! Me and Miyagi vs Kamijou-sensei and Nowaki! Said Shinobu as he bounced the ball in his hand with a fiery spirit!" said Shinobu in order to provoke the Narrator by taking the words that she's the one who supposed to say.

He continued, "If my team wins, then Kamijou-sensei should stay away from Miyagi for eternity!"

"If my team wins instead of yours then Miyagi-san should stay away from Hiro-san for eternity..." said Nowaki with the aura of doom spewing around.

"The bets don't sound any different at all..." said Hiroki and Miyagi altogether while a big sweat dropped at their heads respectively.

I'm too lazy to narrate their process during their play so just imagine it yourself on what happened. Even though I narrate it all you must be fell asleep while reading it due to boredom because nothing much happened other than the ball getting bitch-slapped and bouncing around repetitively.

I'm skipping to the next event!

"What!? No, you can't! I'm going to show my special technique!" that's Shinobu who's talking.

No. I'm still skipping and you can't stop me.

"You can't! Stop that!"

No means no, Shinobu. Besides, this is fanfic is not about sports manga it's about yaoi manga. This is Junjou Romantica in our case and not Shinobu no Volleyball, ripped off from Kuroko no Basuke LOL.

"Ahh, damn it! That would make a good spin-off!"

No way. So let me use my special technique instead, Dragon Ball style.

SUPREME FIERY FLAMING DRAGON ROAR ERUPTING DYNAMITE ATOMIC EXPLOSION TIGER CLAW FLASH THUNDERING DEMON OH MY GOD SO AWESOME TECHNIQUE THAT YOU MUST BE SO AMAZED NOW WHILE READING POWERFUL NARRATOR'S EVENT SKIP!

"What!? That technique's name is too long and doesn't sound good at all!" screamed Hiroki, Nowaki, Miyagi and Shinobu in unison.

Really? It does sound good to me...

...

"Arrggh! Usagi-san!" Misaki jerked his head out from the sea. Akihiko held Misaki's body with his big hands since the brunette couldn't swim. "I can't do it!"

"Is there something wrong with your brain? We have been here for twenty minutes and you still couldn't do it right."

Misaki pouted. "Geez Usagi-san, you seriously never fail to irritate me! If I keep on giving my best, then I can definitely do it!"

The brunette inhaled deeply, then he dived in the sea once again and tried to move his arms and legs in a way that you will recognize as "swimming".

"Shut up, Narrator! Damn it, why swimming is such an impossible thing to do... I see people doing it in TV so easily... Hey damn readers stop reading my mental dialogue already!"

"You're so stupid yet cute at the same time." Akihiko also dived in, he turned Misaki facing him.

"Oi, Baka Usagi! What are you doing!?"

Akihiko wrapped his arms around Misaki's waist, then pulled the brunette's face towards his and locked their lips altogether, performing the astounding and wonderful underwater kiss...

Misaki tried to push Akihiko away, but he couldn't fight the feeling of comfort and pleasure as they kissed so he wrapped his arms around the older man's neck and clutched his shirt. So pleasurable that he lost hold of his breath.

Unfortunately, the longer they kiss the more of Misaki's consciousness faded away. The brunette's arms drifted away and he went limp in Akihiko's embrace, his vision went dark at a sudden.

"Misaki?" Akihiko pulled away from the kiss as he noticed the changes in the brunette's actions. "What's the matter with you?" It only took a few seconds for Akihiko to glance at Misaki's face but he immediately panicked after he did so.

"Misaki!?"

The novelist jerked upwards from the sea while pulling the younger man along.

"Oi Misaki, get a hold of yourself! Misaki!" Akihiko shook Misaki's body as hard as he could to wake him up but nothing happened in return.

...

"Dangit... Our match went into a draw..." said Shinobu as he wiped the sweat at his face with the back of his hand.

"But nice game nevertheless!" said Nowaki, showing full enjoyment and satisfaction.

"Yay! I don't need to stop playing with my beloved Hiroki~!" Miyagi tries to glomp Hiroki but failed as the latter pushed him away in annoyance. Shinobu and Nowaki are not amused by this so their gloomy aura of doom joined forces.

Miyagi at first was terrified as he was now in the verge of being murdered by either Nowaki or Shinobu. Or Hiroki. But his fear stopped as his eye managed to catch a very important sight.

"Everyone, look! It's Akihiko and Misaki-kun!" he pointed into a direction that the others later turned their heads on.

Akihiko was walking towards them while carrying an unconscious Misaki like a princess in his arms. Both of them were fully soaked by the seawater. He stopped walking as they all rushed to his side.

"Akihiko!" Hiroki screamed.

"Misaki-kun!" Nowaki screamed.

"Let me take care of him myself." said Akihiko as he carefully laid Misaki on the ground. With his hands, he pressed the brunette's chest to force the seawater out from his mouth, then he stopped and proceeded to do mouth-to-mouth respiration to the brunette.

After some efforts, Misaki finally showed some positive changes. He coughed and opened his eyes. "Wha-... what happened to me...?"

"You drowned." Akihiko replied to him nonchalantly.

"Urrgghh! You idiot!" Misaki raised his upper body upwards angrily. "Are trying to suffocate me to death back there!? That was so dangerous; I could have died from it!"

"What happened between you two that Misaki got drowned?" asked Hiroki suspiciously, large sweat dropped at his head.

"Baka Usagi..." Misaki lost his consciousness once again and fell back on the ground.

"MISAKI!"

To be updated... Hahahaha. :P
