One night, one dream, gonna save it save it for me

Natasha Thomas - Save your kisses for me


Two years suddenly went by and they were graduating. Yap it's their graduation day in Seigaku. They just had their graduation ceremony and everyone shared tears and memories to each other. Tomoka cried to her shoulders and next school year would be their High school life.

"When are you going to study in high school, Sakuno?" Tomoka asked her.

"Eh?" Y-you are not going to study here?" Sakuno asked her back.

Tomoka just shrugged. You see my mom is considering me to study in Hokkaido. So I probably go there and see the place," Tomoka became sad, "Too bad I can't see Ryoma-sama after this."

Sakuno was about to say something when Horio butted in, "Well I heard that Echizen will be coming back to America so that he can continue his study there."

Sakuno and Tomoka were shocked. Tomoka was the one to react first, "Maji? Or are you just kidding me?"

"How would I kid things about him like that? I'm telling the truth." Horio said.

Sakuno heard Tomoka say something but she didn't understand it. The two fought once again. She decided to leave the bickering teens and headed to a place and looked for him.

R-ryoma-kun is going to America to study. She thought as she started to run. We will never see each other again for years. She gripped her diploma hard. She looked for him anywhere, in the court, the cafeteria, in the vending machine… anywhere. But she couldn't find him. She thought of another place.

The rooftop.

At last.

She saw him there… sleeping.

Yap the boy was sleeping on the cold tiles at the rooftop. With his hands under his head the boy was just sleeping so peaceful there. His diploma was just beside him. Good thing that it didn't blown by the wind. She went near the boy and crouched beside him.

"R-ryoma-kun…" she called his name carefully and she started to poke his face. The boy didn't budge. He is so cute when he is sleeping. She blushed when she thought that.

She stared at the boy for a long time trying to remember the features on his face. "Are you… really leaving for high school?" she whispered making that she could only hear what she said. Then her stare shifted to his lips which were slight opened. It was inviting her to do something. Something that was suitable for his lips.

Kiss.

She blushed as she thought that. She shook her head. Stop it, Sakuno. Don't think such embarrassing things like that. R-ryoma-kun wouldn't like that. She protested as she shook her head right and left on her thought. She was driving herself crazy when that thought came to her mind.

She looked at him again and realized something. But… he is sleeping. Sure he will not know if I am… going to… k-kiss him.

With that resolve, she released a deep breath and placed her right hand to the floor and leaned closer to him. Her left hand was at the back of her ear tucking the strands of her hair from making its way to her face. She was able to stare at his face. It might be our last time seeing each other. So I think I should have at least keep a memory from you. She leaned closer.

…And closer.

…And closer.

And when she was about to close her eyes as was about to give her the kiss, her half-closed eyes snapped opened just to see a sudden opening of the eyes of Ryoma in front of her. She stayed in that position for a few seconds before becoming crimson red and quickly leaned back. She also moved back while covering her mouth in embarrassment.

"R-R-Ry-Ryo-ma-kun!" She panicked as she looked at the sitting boy who was rubbing his eyes.

"What are you doing?" He said as he stared at the blushing girl.

"N-N-nothing! Nothing!" She shook her head wildly.

Ryoma looked at her curiously. She was covering her mouth as her face was all red. He could see that she was shocked judging from her eyes. And then he remembered something. He smirked and said, "You were trying to kiss me." It was more on declaration than it sounded to be.

"N-no, I-I'm not." She strongly denied it in front of him.

"Oh, really," He said crawling to her.

Yep. The boy crawled towards her.

She panicked when the boy did that. She tried moving back until her back was on the steel bar. She was off guard when the tennis boy stopped crawling in front of her, "You can ask permission from me, you know."

She couldn't react on his words. Her hands were still covering her mouth. She flinched when the boy slowly reached for her hand to uncover her mouth while his other hand was leaning at her side where she was sitting. He managed to trap her there.

"So there's no need to steal it from me." he said as he slowly leaned closer to her face. He claimed her lips successfully and slowly. Her eyes were slowly widened as she was trying to absorb everything. The boys' were calmly closed like he was doing it normally. Her other hand was on top of his arm that was leaning towards her. Her intentions were being done by the boy himself.

She was caught for goodness sake.

It was long before she was released by him. He smirked as he said something;

"Your hand is cold." He said as he changed his hold to intertwined fingers.

She looked away as she was blushing really hard because of what he did to their hands, "I-it's because…"

"Because?"

"B-because you… startled me." she replied still not looking at him.

"And how did I startle you?" He asked her.

She closed her eyes, "M-mou, Ryoma-kun! Y-your actions, y-you surprised me there!" she almost shouted to his face, "T-this is so embarrassing."

Ryoma smirked as he let go of her hand and stood but he didn't move from the place where he was standing, "I'm glad you took the initiative."

She managed to stare at him when he said that.

"I could kiss you again whenever I like it."

"E-eh?!" She blushed, wondering, confused and curious at the same time, "W-what do you mean?"

It was Ryoma's turn to wonder, "What do you mean what did I mean? We will see each other more often, of course if you decided to continue your studies here in Seigaku."

That snapped her of surprise, "Y-you mean you are not going to America to continue your studies?"

"Who gave you that idea?" he asked back.

"H-horio-kun said… so."

Ryoma twitched, "So much for that guy. You shouldn't believe in rumors," he said as he bent over to her face making her blush more, "I'll stay here, wherever you are."

She leaned back and looked down. Did it mean that they had an understanding? They would go to the same school once again… at Seigaku High. She stared at the hand being offered in front of her. She took it and stood up beside him. Ryoma walked ahead of her but before she could follow, the boy said another word;

"You can save all your kisses for me until we enter high school."

For the last time in that day, she felt her face—no her whole body turned crimson red. She cursed that day that she got caught by Ryoma who was smirking as his teases.
