Recap:

"You are so! I saw you with that speed freak from Fudomine yesterday!"

"So what—"

"Kissing."

"Lia—"

"YOU WHAT?!"

Momo jumped and spun around, while Ryoma merely looked up, holding his magic ponta can to his lips. Kaido had returned from his "light warm-up run" and was now glaring death and daggers at Momoshiro, who was trying to back away, "Er…I swear I can explain."

"You better." The other hissed, starting to close the distance between them, "Talk. Now." He raised his fist, ready to beat the other power player into the ground at a second's notice.

Momo was…"saved" by a sudden blur of green flying between him and Kaido and everyone looking at them, then back to the court. Fuji was smiling, ever so innocently, as he waved, "Play nice, boys."

"Yes sempai—"

"HE'S CHEATING ON ME!" Kaido exclaimed, pointing at Momo angrily, not seeming to realize what he'd said. At that, everyone's jaws once again dropped. Inui dropped his notebook, starring, and even Fuji was starring at that point. Kikumaru looked between them, curiously, "…I thought Momo was going out with Kamio?"

Kaido turned back on Momo, glaring, "How. Long. You. Bastard."

"Er…."

"A couple of months at least," Fuji put in, looking unnaturally confused, "I saw them together, too."

"…This is…odd data…where's my notebook?!" Inui looked around in panic.

"...HOI?! MIZUKI AND KIRIHARA ARE GOING OUT?!"

Everyone turned to Kikumaru, who had stolen the notebook the moment he noticed it had been dropped. Inui pounced at him, trying to get the notebook away, "Bad! You know better than to read that!"

"But…but!...Oh! Wait! Better one! ….HOLY SHIT?! SENGOKU'S GOING OUT WITH AKUTSU?!"

"Uh…yeah." Taka blinked, "I thought everyone knew that?"

"NO!" Everyone yelled at once, including the Hyoutei players, who had migrated over to see what all the fuss was.

Kikumaru squirmed away, diving behind Choutouro with the notebook. Inui started to follow, but quickly thought better when he saw Shishido growl, raising his fist threateningly when the data player tried to push past his boyfriend. He settled with glaring at the acrobat, who squealed happily.

"KAWAII!"

"Who now, Eiji?"

"Yeah, yeah! Who!" Jirou bounced over, Fuji following. The narcoleptic player pounced his boyfriend, catching the notebook as it flew out of his hands and looked down, squealing as well.

"D'aw! Ishida-san and Taichi-kun! Kawaii!"

"Really? Awww!" Fuji leaned over, looking down as well, "Hm…Sanada-san and Yuki-chan, as expected. Bunta-san and Jackal-san, Niou-san and Yagyuu-san…expect--…oh my."

Jirou blinked, squinting at the writing, "Does that say what I think it does?"

"…I…think so." Fuji blinked, taking the book for further inspection, "Tachibana-san…?"

At that, everyone else jumped in, "WHO'S HE GOING OUT WITH!?"

"Someone named Hatake Nohiro. …He sounds cute"

"Fuji." Tezuka growled warningly.

"Ok, ok..hey, Inui. Do you keep profile pictures?"

"…."

"…I'll take that as a yes." Fuji grinned, flipping through the book until he found them, "Let's see…Hatake…Hatake…D'aw! He is cute!" Kikumaru and Jirou bounced up, looking over the tensai's shoulders and cooing as well, "He is!"

"I wanna see!" Gakuto bounced over, pushing Kikumaru down as a boost and looked as well, "…He looks plush."

"That's cute!" The other three giggled. Inui, the entire time, glared and growled. He'd considered trying to get his book back when Jirou took it, but when Fuji took it he'd backed down again. And now that there was a crowd, he definitely wasn't going to get it. That sucked.

"Oh man…did we miss the matches?"

Everyone immediately turned to the new voice, though Seigaku…most of Seigaku, quickly turned away again. Kamio had his arm around Ibu's shoulders, looking at them blankly, "….What?"

Gakuto pointed, "Oi! You're the two weirdos from Fudomine!"

"…Shut up. …Whoa. Hold it." Kamio starred a moment, blinking, "…You're on the Hyoutei Tennis team?"

"…No shit, Sherlock."

"…You're a guy?"

"….THE FUCK?! DIE!" Before the violent acrobat could launch himself at the other red head, his boyfriend caught his waist and smartly dragged him back.

"…He's a guy. Wow. …Yo, mamushi. Who are you glaring at? Or is that your new greeting?"

Kaido hissed. He'd been glaring since the two got there, and the comment only made the glare worse. Behind him, Momo was trying to motion for the two to leave as soon as possible, though Kamio was oblivious to it and Ibu barely paid attention to him. He was caught in one of his self-conversations about Gakuto's temper. The Fudomine Ace was still picking at Kaido before he drew attention from him back to Echizen, "Oi! …You're going out with him?!"

Everyone looked over, just in time to see Echizen breaking away from a kiss with Hiyoshi in annoyance. He turned, leaning back into the Hyoutei player with a scowl, "What? You act like you've never seen people kissing. Quit gawking."

"It's not their fault." Hiyoshi patted the rookie's head lightly, "They're a dense lot."

Gakuto once again jumped in, "BAD HIYOSHI! Consorting with the enemy!"

"Hey! I'm going out with Eiji!" Jirou pointed out, pouting.

"…Yeah, but you're both freaks."

"Oi!" They yelled in unison, clinging to each other.

"…Point proved." Gakuto rolled his eyes, looking back at Hiyoshi, "Were you planning on telling us any time soon?"

"…No, not really." The second year blinked, "Why would I?"

"…Atobe's going to kick your ass."

"Actually," Kikumaru drawled, as he, Jirou, and Fuji pulled black shades out of nowhere and slid them on, "They've been going out for a loooooooong time. We saw their first date!"

Everyone looked at them in slight disturbance. Inui looked away first, noting that Ohtori and Shishido had also put on the glasses, "…You knew too?"

The tall second year grinned, pulling the glasses off as he answered, "Of course! Hiyo-kun and I hang out all the time when the third years are gone!" They looked to Shishido next, who shrugged smugly, "I just like the look, and he happened to have an extra pair of shades. Personally, I don't give a damn who Hiyoshi's going out with."

Fuji took his glasses off, tilting his head curiously and looked to Ohtori, "…Ohtori-kun. Where were you keeping those exactly? I don't think your jacket pockets are actually big enough for two pairs…and the pockets on your pants are reserved for tennis balls…. …Oh my."

Ohtori promptly blushed while most everyone else looked on in confusion. Fuji, Kikumaru and Jirou all giggled, while Shishido looked over them with a glare, "What? It's easier to get them from his back pocket than ask for 'em."

"Shishido-san…."

"What? You act like I've never grabbed your ass in public."

At that, the second year's face turned completely red. He was lucky enough to have the attention drawn off of him by a sharp smack of flesh meeting flesh. Everyone turned, finding Kamio sprawled on the ground, and Momo trying to hold Kaido back. During the small fiasco, Kamio had resumed teasing Kaido…which had led to a rather unfortunate end for the speed demon.

"Oi! Kaoru!"

"Don't call me that, bastard!"

"What's your problem, Mamushi?!" Kamio jumped up, tenderly rubbing the area he'd been struck. A red mark was already forming on his cheek, looking like it would swell for sure. Ibu looked over calmly, and moved about to find an iced water bottle or cloth he could use to reduce swelling.

"DON'T CALL ME THAT, YOU BOYFRIEND STEALING ASSHOLE!"

At that, Ibu turned around, the water bottle in his hand falling as his grip was lost. His usually dazed look replaced by a glare.

"…What?"

"Ignore him Shinji—"

"THESE TWO HAVE BEEN CHEATING ON BOTH OF US FOR THE PAST GOD KNOWS HOW LONG. AND NOW. THEY'RE GOING TO DIE." Kaido was struggling to get back to beating the livings out of Kamio, but when Kawamura joined in holding him back, he quickly gave up, knowing it would pointless to try escaping.

"What are you—"

Kamio never got to finish the sentence as he was once again smacked. This time by his own boyfriend. Ibu glared down at him, coldly, "You've got about five seconds to start talking. Before I unleash Hell on your miserable soul."

"Er…Ibu-kun—"

"Shut up." Ibu turned on Momo then, glaring even deadlier at him, "You're next on the list—"

"What is going on here?!"

"Tachibana-san! Save me!" Kamio scrambled over to hide behind his captain's leg, starring at Ibu and Kaido, "They've cracked under pressure…or something."

The glares returned to him, Ibu advancing as a deathly pace, though Tachibana held him at arm's length, looking confused, and over all concerned, "…What did I miss?"

"Finally got caught, boys?"
