Just some Fun!

Chapter 3

(I do not own the Prince of Tennis characters (no matter how much I wish I did))

Halfway through the practice Ryoma walked up to the bench that Mei was sitting on.

"Having fun?" He asked jokingly.

"Huh?" Mei looked up from her sketch book, "Did you say something," Ryoma just shook his head. "Is the practice over?" Mei said as she looked around confused.

"No, half way though," Ryoma said.

"So then what are you doing over here?" Mei asked, somewhat suspicious.

"Break," he simply stated, "Come with me," and began to walk away.

"Umm… Okay," Mei placed her sketch book on the bench and followed her twin. Ryoma led them straight to the changing rooms. "Ryo-kun? What are you thinking?"

"You do want to know what the Seigaku Regular practice is like, right." Ryoma gave Mei a small rare smile, "Or do you think it's too hard for you?" Ryoma Held out his signature hat to his twin

"I can do it," Mei took the hat from him and placed it on her own head.

After changing both Echizen's exited the changing rooms.

"You better get back to practice Ryo-kun." Ryoma said, doing an exact imitation of Mei, "Otherwise Tezuka-sempai will make you do laps," he said in a sing song voice.

"Hn," was all Mei responded with, and then fixed her hat, just like Ryoma always did. Mei left to the courts and Ryoma followed shortly after.

Mei made it back to the courts just in time. "Alright Regulars, were doing the cone exercise now," Inui said, "And as you know I have a new Inui juice for you guys to try." Everyone groaned, "Alright then first will be Eiji and Oishi, then Momoshiro and Echizen, Tezuka and Fuji, and finally Taka-san and Kaido. Is that fine?" No one said anything, "Alright Eiji, Oishi, come on." Eiji and Oishi stepped up, each on a different court. Inui was serving for Eiji and Ryuzaki-sensei was serving for Oishi.

"Alright begin!" Inui yelled and served, along with Ryuzaki-sensei. Both started out good, Eiji was yelling out the colors, while Oishi kept quiet. The first one to slip up, happened to be Eiji.

"Red!" Eiji yelled hitting a ball.

"Wrong, it's yellow," Inui said.

"Huh?!" Eiji looked at the ball, "Ah!" Inui was now standing in front of Eiji with a glass of green liquid. Eiji's face looked a bit scared. He carefully took the glass and timidly put it to his lips and took a sip. A split second later Eiji darted out of the courts, looking like he was going to be sick. Oishi finished and didn't have to drink any of the Inui Juice.

"Momoshiro and Echizen," Inui said, "Your turn." Ryoma got up from the bench and walked up to watch Mei. Both Momo-chan and Mei walked to a spot on each of the courts, and got ready to begin. Hopefully you don't use that move of yours, mostly because I can't flip like that, Ryoma thought to himself.

"Ready! Begin!" Inui yelled and served a ball to Mei. Of Mei and Momo, Momo messed up first. So Ryuzaki-sensei handed him a glass with the green Inui Juice, resulting in him running to where Eiji earlier went to. Mei had one more ball left. Inui served, the ball curved out of her reach, she could have done her move, but thought twice about it and decided to let it go. Inui came up to her holding up the glass of green juice.

"Um…" Mei took the glass reluctantly, "Alright," She quietly said and took a sip of the juice. She was expecting something to be so horrible that she had to run to the bathroom to be sick, just like Momo-chan and Eiji did. "Oh my god, this is good," Mei said after the first sip, she then drank the rest of it, "Can I have some more?" Mei put an innocent look on her face.

"You actually like it?!" Eiji said, just getting back from the bathroom. Mei ignored Eiji and asked Inui again for some more juice. Ryoma "Mei", on the sidelines, was quite shocked at first, but then had to try really hard from busting out laughing at his sister. Fuji noticed Ryoma "Mei"'s actions, interesting, He thought to himself.

"Fuji, Tezuka! It's your turn now," Inui said, and they continued with the practice.

"Hey Ryoma-san!" Fuji walked up to Mei "Ryoma" a little before practice ended, "Could you help me get some extra balls? Inui isn't sure he'll need them, but wants extra anyway, just in case."

"Um... sure, Fuji-sempai," Mei said, and followed Fuji.

When they reached the storage shed, Fuji opened the door, "Inui's Juice was really good, wasn't it, Mei-san?" Fuji said smiling.

"Yeah, it's really good!" Mei said, not thinking, "Wait, did you call me, Mei?"

"Of course I did," Fuji said turning around to face Mei, "because you are Mei-san, am I right?"

"And why do you say that?" Mei asked, and then realized, "Inui-sempai doesn't need extra tennis balls does he, and you just wanted to talk alone?"

"Very good Mei-san, yes I did want to talk alone," He gave her a grin, "I also know your Mei, because, one, Ryoma-san, like everyone else, hates Inui's Juice. Also, the so called "Mei" or shall I say Ryoma-san was quite shocked to see that you liked the juice. Now for someone who has never tried Inui's juice before, why would they be shocked like that? Also your tennis style is a bit different than Ryoma-san's"

Mei sighed, "I guess I need to get to know Ryo-kun even better now. I haven't seen him for awhile. He found new friends and has changed. So I guess I can't imitate him as well as I use to, when we wouldn't go anywhere without the other."

"So you guys were always together?" Fuji said.

"Yup, when ever people came over to our house they always thought we were twin boys," Mei laughed, "That was mostly because I always liked wearing boy's clothes. We also were one of the best Doubles pairs, but eventually we both became solo players, mostly cause that's what Otou-san wanted." Mei sighed, "Umm… we better get back to the courts, everyone will be wondering why we left, alone."

"Alright," Fuji said, "Hmm… I wonder what Tezuka will say when I tell him you and Ryoma-san swiched places for practice." Fuji gave Mei his famous smile. Mei felt a small chill go up her spine, for some reason.
