Disclaimer: Sorry, I forgot to place this on my previous chapters, anyway, I don't own prince of tennis.

Previous: There he found … Kintarou is not only known in his great capacity for tennis. He also maintains good grades. He always gets straight A's….

Reading this, Ryoma's eyes widened.

'How can that be?' he thought.

Then an idea popped out of his head placing a smirk on his lips.


Chapter IV: "Kintarou Meets His 2 Tutors"

Kintarou was once again waiting in front of the campus.

'Will Sakuno-chan teach me? And, will she..? No she won't find out.' These played in Kintarou's head.

'I wonder, where's Ryoma-kun?' Sakuno thought.

'I didn't see him during practice. Is he sick? I wonder if I should bring him something. I will.' Sakuno said finalizing her decision.

Kintarou noticed Sakuno heading his way.

'Sakuno-chan!' he called.

'K-kintarou-kun!?' she was surprised.

'Uhmm. I'm not rushing you, I just want to know if ..ummm.. you already made a decision.' Kintarou said.

'Ughhh.. yeah I-I have. I decided to.. tutor you…' Sakuno said embarrassed for some reason.

'Nani? Sugoi! Thank you, thank you.' Kintarou exclaimed hugging her.

Sakuno's body stiffed.

'Sensei? Daijobu?' Kintarou asked feeling Sakuno's stiffness.

When he looked at her, she was all red.

'Ah.. g-gomen…' Kintarou said scratching his head.

'I-its ok..' Sakuno said her face still wearing that blush on her face.

'Anyway, when can we start?' Kintarou said changing the subject.

'Uhmm.. w-when are you free?' Sakuno asked.

'Anytime..' Kintarou wore his biggest smile.

'L-let me see, I-I'm free during uhmmm… Saturday and Sunday afternoons..' Sakuno said.

'Then its settled. Let's study on my house tomorrow. If that's ok with you.' Kintarou said.

'I guess obaachan would let me. So I guess it would be ok.' Sakuno said.

'Anyway, I need to go sensei… See you!' Kintarou said waving goodbye.

'I need to get ready since its already tomorrow.' Sakuno thought completely forgetting about her previous plan.


'Coach Ryuzaki.' Ryoma called plainly.

'Echizen. I didn't see you during practice. Did something happen?' Sumire asked.

'Did she asked you if she can be a tutor?' Ryoma said being unclear.

'She? Who's she? Oh you mean Sakuno? Yeah, and I let her. Why? Is there a problem?' Sumire asked.

'Do you know who will she tutor?' Ryoma asked as plain as before.

'What I know is that he's also a first year student.' Sumire said recalling how Sakuno asked her if she can.

'It's Kintarou Tooyama. The kid from Shintenhoji.' Ryoma said still plain

'What?! Kintarou?' Sumire stated.

'Why is he telling me this? Could it be?' Sumire thought

'Can you please accompany her? I can't let her stay with him even for just an hour.' Sumire said acting that she's bothered with Sakuno and Kintarou.

'Do I have a choice?' Ryoma acted as well; that he doesn't want to.

Ryoma then left the faculty room.

'Echizen, don't you think that I don't know about it.' Sumire thought then laughed.


The next day

'Obaachan I'll go now!' Sakuno said cheerfully leaving the house.

'I'll go out.' Ryoma said leaving his house.

Sakuno reached the place then knocked.

Kintarou opened the door.

'Welcome Sensei!' Kintarou said cheerfully.

'Ahh K-Kintarou-kun, n-no need to call me s-sensei, I find it a-awkward.' Sakuno said.

'Ahh. Ok Sakuno-chan.' Kintarou said with his big smile.

Sakuno and Kintarou went in.

'Uhmm. Where would you like to start? What subject?' Sakuno asked.

'It's up to you.' Kintarou said.

'Ok let's..' Sakuno was cut off hearing someone force the door to open.

'I-is it a burglar by any chance?' Kintarou said slightly scared.

The door of the room flung open.

'R-ryoma-kun?' Sakuno said.

'Wh-what are you doing here Koshimae?' Kintarou asked.

'I'll be your second tutor' Ryoma stated.

'B-but Sakuno would be alright.' Kintarou argued.

'Well actually no. Sakuno has a very long hair.' Ryoma said plainly holding Sakuno's braided hair.

'H-hey, it has nothing to do with studying!' Sakuno pouted.

'And Sakuno isn't that good in English.' Ryoma said coolly letting go of her hair.

Sakuno's cheeks turned red.

'I-is that true Sakuno-chan?' Kintarou asked.

Sakuno nodded embarrassed.

'I-I think Ryoma-kun's right.' Sakuno said.

Kintarou sighed.

'Alright. You can be my second tutor.' Kintarou said losing his excitement

Ryoma sat beside Sakuno facing Kintarou.

'Just tell me when it's English.' Ryoma said which made Sakuno pout again.

'I need another plan.' Kintarou thought.
