A/N: Yay for cliched pairings! Golden Pair was always my baby sister's favorite - what with her fangirling over Kikumaru - that made this one painfully difficult to write. I don't wanna get killed after all. There's no real 'verse to this, just random responses to prompts, meh. Do let me know what you think! -iirse
Warnings: Definite slash, though not explicit. If you don't like it, don't read it.

Golden "Firsts"
ONE. First Anniversary
It was still there, even after so many years. With surprising agility, the redhead vaulted up the container; clambering for the spot he had always taken. IN his mind's eye, numerous images flashed: the first meeting, club gossip, their agreements, that first thrilling match, the day they were named to compete, their first Nationals game… The Nationals game…
A familiar figure broke his reverie. For a moment those eyes lit up, before deadening once more. The figure was with another. It had been, after all, exactly a year since he let go of all hope.
TWO. First Laughter
His other half's smiles and laughs were infectious, the ever-bubbly bouncing bundle of red that he was. But when Syuuichirou was the reason behind that happiness, that laugh was infinitely more special. And he knew he would strive time and time again to recreate it.
THREE. First Vacation
After spending the whole holiday training for the Nationals they were determined to win, much unlike other normal couples, it was just like Eiji to drag them into a more normal couple event: snowball fight.
FOUR. First Question
"Ne, aibou?" was the first thing that Eiji always asked when in need of affirmation. Usually said with confidence, this softened timid revision begged for Syuuichirou to ease all of the redhead's fears about them.
FIVE. First Conversation
They hadn't spoken in days properly since getting together due to work and whatnot. But then, they hadn't done anything in day s, so it wasn't unexpected that an overexcited Eiji let kisses do the talking.
