"…."
"….."
"….."
"…y-you're serious?" eyes that all belonged to Rikkai's tennis team stood in shock, fear, curiosity and most of all….pity.
"Unfortunately I am" The Master did all he could to hide his shame.

"Renji! Renji come down for a moment please! Your father and I want to talk to you!" a middle aged woman yelled from down stairs, sitting beside her husband as their only son came down.
"Yes mother?"
"Renji please sit" noting to the chair diagonal to the couch they were currently occupying
"Your father and I would like to know how you're doing in school"
"I'm at the top of my class, just as I always have mother"
"And your tennis?"
"As perfect as always father"
"That's what's bothering us Renji"
"..I'm sorry?" looking at each other for support, Yanagi's father begun
"We think you need to get another sport"
"WHAT?!" widening his ever closed eyes, Yanagi couldn't hid his shock. What in the world were his parents thinking?! Asking him to get another sport!?
"Please, tennis is good and all, and you excel in it but…"
"To be a well rounded person you need to open your horizons"
"Tennis is doing just that for me father"
"Renji, what your father is trying to say is that we think it's best if you try new things"
"…" clearly the look of dislike on his face was not getting to his parents, either that or they decided to ignore it all completely.
"Why not try painting?"
"…"
"Or gardening?"
"…"
"How about writing?"
"…" seeing as they were getting no where and that their son was getting really pissed off, they gave the other a nod and decided it was no or never to tell their son that….
"We signed you up for dance class"
___________________________________________
"And that's how it happened"
"You can't be serious Yanagi!" Marui couldn't hold back his laugh as him and most of the team minus Sanada let out their enjoyment. Even Yagyuu and Jackal let out a chuckle.
"I'm serious"
"Come now, I'm sure it won't be that bad" Yukimura smiled to his long time friend, Yanagi on the other hand wasn't sure if the smile was out of pity or contained laughter.
"I'm afraid it will be"
"Yanagi-senpai dancing!? That's too good! Oh man I want to see that!" Akaya held his stomach but still the pain throbbed
"Yeah! Of all of us you? It's too much!" Niou held onto his kouhai as they laughed at The Master's expense
"When are the classes?" Sanada's question broke out, he was the only one taking this seriously….as if he could do anything else.
"Around 5 about to 7 mostly on Tuesdays and Thursdays"
"I see…"
"Genichiroh you best not make plans on those days either" now this got the teams attention.
"Why not?"
"….you're joining me"
_________________________________
"No! I will not go!" t-this was an outrage! How could they just sign him up for dance classes without his consent! He had tennis practice almost everyday after school, he had school work, volunteer work and other things! He had not time for something as stupid and pointless as dance!
"Renji please just hear us out" his mother pleaded
"No! I refuse! You had no right to-"
"Renji! Do not speak to your mother that way!" his father stood to his full height of 6'2, silencing his son with his sharp light brown eyes
"…"
"We thought it was best for you to try something new, with your agility in tennis; we thought dance would come easy for you"
"I don't want to go"
"Renji please, just this once"
"The schedule will clash with my Tuesday and Thursday practice"
"Then you can ask Genichiroh-kun for a leave"
"Why would I ask him?" wouldn't it be better to ask Yukimura? He's the captain after all
"Because he's going to join your class too" his mother said as if it were the most nonchalant thing to say
"What!"
"We thought you'd be bored or left out so we talked to Genichiroh-kun's parents if he could join you, and they said yes"
"W-why him?"
"Aren't you two best friends? Of course not like you were with Sadaharu-kun before but close enough right?" his mother grinned as his father nodded in agreement
"That's not the point mother!"
"Enough of this Renji, you will go to dance class with Sanada-kun and you will enjoy it! Have I made myself clear?"
"Yes sir"
___________________________________
"I-Impossible!"
"Sadly it's true"
"No way! S-Sanada too!" if Marui was laughing then he was hyperventilating now
"Now I really want to see this!" Akaya fell to the ground in a fit of laughter bringing Niou down on top of him
"T-this is too much!"
"Niou-kun, Marui-kun, K-Kirihara-kun you're all b-being very rude!" Yagyuu tried to reprimand the lot, sadly they all heard his stutter and knew he too was trying to hide his laughter
"Now now everyone let's let Yanagi and Sanada talk about this in private, back to practice!" Yukimura spoke in that commanding soft voice of his. As the team spread out along the courts, noise and abundance booming.
Leaving the two dark haired third years, in the locker room alone.
"Why bring me into this Renji"
"It wasn't like I asked for this Genichiroh, it just so happens that our mothers are friends"
"I see that but still!"
"Relax before we know it, it'll be over" placing a hand on his friend Yanagi did well to hide his dislike of the whole thing….as well as the feeling of foreboding.
Hopefully if there was a Tennis God up there, who so graciously blessed them for three years at Nationals would take pity on them and speak to the Dance God, things would go without a hitch and it would be all over…..
__________________________________________
….Or not. That Dance God up there made them pay and they could tell he was laughing his ass off.
"Ow Genichiroh your foot isn't suppose to go there!"
"How am I suppose to know where it goes! Hey watch where your hands are going!"
"Stop moving so roughly!"
"Stop pulling me!" as luck would have it, the class they were assigned too was small with only a handful of students, it was good for the teacher to look at everyone with care but for our two tennis players it was a curse.
Everyone had already been paired up and so obviously they were paired together. The fact that the class was dancing waltz and tango didn't help either.
"You're getting too close Renji"
"Suck it up Genichiroh, I don't want to be this close to you either" giving the treasurer of the team a look, dark brown clashed with light brown.
"After this you're running laps"
"Why, I've done nothing"
"You forget Renji I'm the vice-captain, you're running"
"Don't you forget Genichiroh I'm your nutritionist" had that threat been aimed at anyone else they would have laughed it off as nothing but a pathetic excuse of an argument, but this wasn't anyone else. This was Sanada who knew that glint in Yanagi's eyes.
Yanagi would create one of his 'energy drinks' for sure.
"…I hate you"
"We're mutual then"
"Nice, very good you two! I've never seen such a dark forbidden waltz before!" their teacher praised as the class stopped and watched with awe. Flustering the two tennis players.
___________________________________________
And for almost 2 months this went on a regular bases until one day…..
"What! That's wonderful! Yes yes I'll tell him thank you!" dropping the phone onto its place on the coffee table, called down her son
"Yes mother?"
"Oh Renji I have the best news for you"
"What's the noise for?" came his father's voice from the kitchen as he joined his family
"Renji's dance teacher just called me and she told me that they will be having a dance recital in two weeks and that Renji and Genichiroh-kun will take center stage!"
"That's wonderful! Congratulations son! I told you you'd excel in dance!" the two Yanagi parents continued to rejoice over their son as they talked in the kitchen, leaving Renji standing in the living room….staring.
Until he heard his cell ringing from his room, with the agility of a drunken slug Yanagi subconsciously already knew who would be calling him and the lecture he would get.
"Hello"
"RENJI I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!!"
"Calm down Genichiroh!"
"LIKE HELL! HOW ARE WE GOING TO PERFORM IN FRONT OF PEOPLE!? AND DANCE!"
"I'll think of a way out of this! Just calm down!" hearing a sign come from the other side of the line, the quelled voice of his supposed always calm in the face of danger vice-captain spoke
"What is the plan then?"
"…I'm not sure"
"Renji!"
"Don't start yelling at me! This is not my fault!" taken aback at his outburst Yanagi recollected himself
"Sorry"
"No I'm sorry that was out of line"
"No I was the one taking my frustration out on you"
"The both of us have been short tempered as of late it would seem" sharing a light laugh between each other, the two hung up and hoped for a miracle; there was NO way in hell they were dancing in public!…..or so they thought.
Two weeks later.
"…I hate you"
"…we're mutual then" both dressed in three piece suits, Sanada Genichiroh and Yanagi Renji were standing beside each other behind a large velvet curtain on a stage set for them, in front of their families and tennis team.
…even The Master and The Emperor could do nothing against the Dance God.
