Disclaimer: PoT not mine Dx, I don't know about Atobe's Parents either. xD

mysticLegend11: x3 Thank you. I though of the same thing but I really don't mind it right now. I might change it back to first person but I'll see how the story progresses. I dunno… I don't have a beta and I suck at grammar. I'll ask around school. I know some people who like Fanfictions as much as I do.

Bloodninja555: I'm sorry. I know it was a short chapter. I'll make it up in this chapter. And I will try to find some way to place some of the Romance parts into it.

Hrm… Can someone be a Beta for me? I can't really proofread my writing much because… I wrote it and sometimes it makes sense to me. So… help? (Plus I never really had a beta, so I'm a newbie at that.)

"Good job Hanako!"

Suichi slapped her on the back, making her lunge forward. Hanako glared at Suichi.

"Now you can actually train and concentrate. But wouldn't this affect our game plan?"

Atobe asked within the group. Suichi nodded with his hand on his chin. Oshitari placed his book by his side, using his finger to save his place in the book.

"Yes, unfortunately. We only have limited time to train her to go faster. What I was thinking was make her go to your personal exercise room, Atobe, and train her on the treadmill see how she progressed through out the days she had trained. We will let her drink Gatorade, the export from America, since that has sugar and it's a flavored drink. We'll ask her current guardians to stay over Atobe's house for the remainder of the week. Is that ok Atobe, Hanako?"

Atobe shrugged in the sign of yes. Hanako had to let this all sink in.

"S-so I have to s-stay over Atobe's house?"

She stuttered the words out of her mouth. Oshitari nodded.

"It'll be the best. Atobe can watch you train when you are over there and you will be exhausted by the end of the training so mind as well stay over there. Plus you won't have to run to school unless you feel like it of course."

Hanako's eyes looked else where. She was thinking whether that idea was any good. She simply shrugged and walked out of the classroom to meet up with Gakuto.

"That's a yes Oshitari, so call her guardians. This is going to be a fun week."

Atobe said with a smirk on his face.

--

So that following hour, Hanako got a phone call from home and heard that she is going to stay over Atobe's house for a "Project".

The word 'project' always gets to the guardians especially when it comes to other rich companies. Her guardians are trying to get the attention of her parents that she is getting involved with other companies, so they can come home and meet their grown daughter.

Her Chauffer would come by with a bag of necessities for her stay over. Atobe already contacted his parents about the situation. She thinks that they are happy to see her.

After school, it was already in the middle of the Tennis practice. Hanako observed many things for improvement for the regulars.

"Gakuto-Kun, you need to train on your stamina more. Um… Shishido-San… How can I put this? Um… Think of more strategies than just running around the court in full speed. Ohtori-San, you could practice more on your scud serve. I think you can make it faster and a lot stronger than its current state. Kabaji? Quit saying 'Usu' to Atobe. Akutagawa-San eat candy, wake up for once. Hiyoshi-Kun, practice more martial arts. Oshitari-San… Keep on what you are doing. Atobe-San, quit being arrogant."

Hanako said, reading off her clipboard. She slid up her glasses and looked at them. They just simply nodded. Shishido looked like he was going to wake her on the head saying that. Then muttering that he does have a strategy and it is hard for him to follow it. Atobe glared at her and about to make a remark back at her. Jirou was just waking up from his afternoon nap. She can't really believe that he is actually a third year.

"Hanako. Come here please."

She turned around to see Sakaki in his usual suit. She nodded and headed towards him.

"Y-yes Sakaki-Sensei?"

He towered over her. She swallowed her saliva that was becoming like water forming.

"It was clear to see that Oshitari should practice more on his smash returns."

Hanako nodded and was about to head back.

"Oh yes, here."

He handed her an envelope that had her name written on directly from the principal.

"But…"

"I'm 'just' a music teacher."

He said and walked off. Hanako looked at the envelope and opened it. She read the note it was from her guardians.

Hanako, dear,

Your parents have received a word that you are cooperating with other companies outside Rui Entertainments. They might come over and arrange a marriage with one of the company heirs. I believe your father recognizes you now. But at the same time, I think he is just using you for his company. Please be careful. They might come with a surprise. I hope this stay away from the estate with open your eyes and seek a goal. Please don't a guinea pig to your father. Honey, if there is any problems occurring don't hesitate and ask.

Love,

Your guardian, Kina.

Hanako thought she was reading too fast and read it over and over again.

"My parents MIGHT come?!"

She thought and dropped the letter on the ground.

"This isn't right. I know for sure that… He will use me for his own purposes again. Maybe she will too. I don't like this."

She muttered.

"Hm? So your parents might be coming home?"

She looked up to see Oshitari's face with the letter in his hand.

"Yea…"

She muttered once more.

"Shouldn't you be glad? You've always wanted your parents' home."

He asked, folding up the sheet of paper.

"Yes. I am happy. And how did you know that?"

She lied to him but she had that scowl on her face. Suichi was turning the corner and saw her and Oshitari chatting.

"Yo! Hanako shouldn't you be running around the courts right now? But anyways if you were I would have stopped you. Do you know when our new uniforms are coming in and who we are going against next two weeks?"

Hanako nodded and flipped around her papers on the clipboard.

"Yea… The uniforms should be coming in one more week and in two weeks you are going against is Rokkaku. Is that good?"

He nodded and headed his way off. She then directed her attention back to Oshitari.

"Oh! Sakaki-Sensei told me that you should practice on returning smashes more! Ja'ne! I should go now; my Chauffer is out there with my things."

She ran off in the direction towards the front of the school. She gathered her things, which was in a duffel bag, and headed towards the courts to see everyone cleaning up to leave.

--

"Master Atobe, welcome home. You must be Miss Rui. Welcome to the Atobe estate. I'll be your maid for this week."

She said and bowed down. Hanako bowed down and saw that Atobe was ahead of her. She excused herself from her maid and quickly followed behind Atobe. He knocked on the door and walked in. Hanako saw two adults sitting there with tea in their hands. The older woman placed her cup down and stood up.

"Hello there. Please sit."

She gestured her hand to the seats that are vacant. They both made their way and Hanako's one week maid left the room.

"Oh, you look so adorable with that long brown pigtailed hair of yours. I wish you were my daughter."

Atobe's mom said to her. She nodded and looked down to her hands, which were on her lap.

"Excuse my wife's compliment for a minute. We are Keigo's parents. She is Atobe Hitomi and I am Atobe Kaiden. We are very pleased that you are here to stay with us."

Hanako nodded.

"I am Rui Hanako. I don't know if I'm the heir for the Rui Entertainments."

She nodded once more.

"May I be excused now? I should know where my room is before I'm lost in this place. Plus we both need to get started on our project."

Both of the parents nodded and enjoyed their tea. Hanako's maid was waiting outside of the door.

"Miss Rui, please follow me to your room. So you may start on your project soon."

Hanako was going to reply but Atobe's hand was in the way.

"No, I'll show her. Please tell the chef to get 'Gatorade' and send it to the exercise room."

She nodded and walked off to the kitchen area.

"Shall we go through Ore-Sama's estate; which is a lot better than yours."

Hanako made a face and followed Atobe who was already at the stairs. He showed her the guest room near his room.

"Well hurry and get dressed. We don't have all night. Oshitari and Suichi will come in 5 minutes. If I'm not making you sweat after they come, they'll just make it worse. Meet me in the exercise room. Don't even think about asking around. I'm making you run around this whole estate just to find this room. You have 4 minutes now. See you then."

He said and walked off to his room. Hanako thought for a while till she realized that she didn't have enough time to think about that. She placed her clothes on really fast that it looked like she was a homeless person. She ran down the stairs and searched every room. It took her a minute and a half to find it. It was closest to the swimming pool outside.

"I-I'm here."

She started to breathe for air.

"It's so hard breathing in cool air."

She muttered. He nodded.

"Stretch and then get on the treadmill. Run at least 5 minutes. I'll see your progress later. Now let me go get to my training clothes."

He said.

"Oh yes. Ore-Sama really wants you to try. Unless you really want to fail physical education. It means a lot to me."

He placed the sarcasm at the end. She scoffed at him and finished up her stretching. She placed herself on the treadmill and learned how to start up the treadmill. She started to run. It was only 2 minutes in and Atobe still didn't come back yet. She was already sweating but not too much. She heard the door opened. Like hell she didn't want to turn around because she knows that she'll fall.

"Oh? And she is trying. That's a sight."

Hanako knew that voice. It belonged to Suichi. She turned and glared at him but ended up her falling down on the ground.

"Stupid. Who would really fall off of a treadmill that is not going at least 3 miles per hour?"

She rolled her eyes and looked at another place.

--

Atobe came inside of the room and seeing Suichi squat down to Hanako's level, who fell from the treadmill.

"Heh, such a klutz."

He thought and clearly looked at Hanako's features. She wasn't fat, she wasn't skinny, but she still has a little bit of her baby fat on her cheeks. She had a light tanned colored skin; not a lot of Japanese people have unless they work in construction. Her brown childish eyes, looks like it is still want to play around. Her long brown hair still in pigtails, glisten under the artificial light.

"She looked cute when she didn't have her hair up and those glasses on. She looks so innocent like a 5 year old. Hmph, if I really said that out loud, it'll be embarrassing because I'm complimenting one of the weird girls in school… What's this? Why is my heart thumping faster than usual?"

Atobe shook his head and walked towards Hanako and the group.

"Atobe, our project here is not doing so great. May I step in?"

Oshitari asked. Atobe didn't say anything, in response of 'yes'. Oshitari helped Hanako up, seeing her blush made his heart go in pain for a second.

"What was that?"

He thought once more before going crazy because his head is talking to his conscience.

"Stupid… Don't you ever do anything right besides school and tennis?"

"Of course. I've succeed to make most the female student body to fall in love with me."

"Ah ha… MOST but not HER. You want her. You feel like you want to crave her."

"Shut up."

His battle between his conscience made him think a bit. Thinking that whether that chest pain was because of her.

He shook his head, no.

"Hah… I'm getting crazier because of her."

--

"Hm? What did you say?"

Hanako asked and turned around to look at Atobe. He shook his head no. She just shrugged and followed Oshitari.

"Ok, sit on the ground with your legs stretched out in front of you and yours arms stretched out on your legs."

Hanako did what she was told and Oshitari started to explain more.

"I'll be pushing your back so you can stretch more on your legs."

Hanako nodded and Oshitari pushed her back to lean more on her legs. Hanako had a pink tinted face throughout that night. And of course that she was smiling a lot.

(A/N: Oh boy… Writer's Block. 6 Pages and still Counting.)

The next day Hanako left the house walking to school, she had to get there early. The only bad thing is that she doesn't know where to go because Atobe lives in a different part of the outskirts of Tokyo. She looked at her cell phone for the time and she only had 10 minutes left till both club practices begin. She left 15 minutes before cause she knew that something will happen and this seemed to happen.

She happened to bump into an older man heading to work.

"Excuse me? Do you know where I can get to Hyoutei from here?"

The man just smirked. She backed away a bit to keep her personal space.

"It's straight, and then turn right at that corner. You'll hit the main street towards that school. You are just a middle school student aren't you?"

He asked stepping closer to Hanako. Hanako stepped back farther away from where she was going to head. Hanako couldn't say anything. She was caught by the man's glare.

"Eheh… I'll be going now!"

She ducked her head down and ran off. All that running from the so called project helped. She was lucky to run off and hit the main street like that so called man said.

"Hmm… Maybe I should thank Atobe and them now."

She smiled and went back to that stoic face of her. When she got to school, she headed straight for the Tennis courts to find Atobe, who seemed to be on the courts that time, practicing against a wall. Hanako went up to him.

"Atobe-San."

She heard the ball stop hitting the wall. She was against the fence.

"Thanks. I thank you for helping me improve in my physical fitness."

She had her eyes closed and didn't realize that Atobe was right in front of her.

"I think that I'll participate more in physical fitness project. Well… I should get… Atobe-San?"

She opened her eyes before she said his name. Atobe looked like he was having a hard time thinking. She tilted her head and her glasses almost fell over. She placed her finger to push up the glasses but his hand stopped her from doing that.

"Atobe-San? Ne, Atobe. Are you ok? Hey…"

She blinked and during that time she felt some warm lips on hers. She looked down then looked back up.

"Eh?! IS THAT BUCHOU KISSING HANAKO-CHAN?!"

The shocked hyper active acrobatic shouted.

---End of Chapter

'Sigh'

Is that good enough? I forced myself to think o…o

I think it's too fast moving but its part of the plot. More problems will arise for Hanako-Chan. Great more thinking Dx

I have to do physical fitness myself, so poor me. And since I have to wake up early, I'm passed my sleep in time. Dx

So I'll talk to you all in the next chapter.

Please tell me any comments or concerns. And I know there will be some.
