Disclaimer: Prince of Tennis belongs to NOT ME.
I get writers block sometimes but for a few hours at most. To get rid of it, I read Cosmopolitan and then play Sims 2, where I can make a virtual Rikkai family. :D
Fifteen escape attempts, three anger tantrums and seven hours later; Genichirou was finally let out of Yanagi's house after their gay porn marathon.
Genichirou didn't sleep at all that night. He was pretty sure he would never look at whipped cream and fish tanks the same way again.
Any previous image Genichirou had of sex being a sweet intimate thing was quickly shattered along with what felt like the majority of his brain cells. The images kept on running in his mind all night and all day at school, making him have a huge urge to just run away to his dojo and bash everything in sight with his sword. He was pretty sure he was traumatized for life.
At home, Genichirou looked with disgust at the lube, condoms and vibrator his grandfather had given him. Now that he fully understood what the items were used for, he didn't hesitate to hide them all deep in his closet with the intention of never taking them out again.
Luckily, school took his mind off of it most of the time. They were to have a whole week filled with nothing but exams. Genichirou and Seiichi both were taking time out of their 'alone time' after practice to study like the good students they are.
Everyone in Rikkai was also excited about the trip to the hot springs that would take place after the exam week for three days. The hot spring inn they would be staying at was located up high in the mountains. The teachers wanted the students to train their bodies while learning about the natural environment. Or something spiritual like that.
The rooms were assigned randomly but Seiichi convinced the student council to let him share a room with Genichirou. Yanagi used blackmail to get a room with Akaya, even if the little devil ace was a year younger. Yagyuu used his position on the student council to pair himself up with Niou.
Needless to say, everyone was very excited for the trip. Especially the hormonal teenagers. After a long three weeks of endless studying and testing, they really needed some alone time with their lovers.
Seiichi slumped forward and onto his bed. He was ready to sleep even if it was only six o'clock.
He had finally finished his last exam of the week. He would have been happy to go to sleep right then and there, but he had to pack his bag. They were leaving for the hot spring hotel early the next morning.
Despite his sleepiness, he was glad to be going. He missed Genichirou terribly and a small trip is just what they needed. Even if they could only be alone at night and couldn't make much noise, at least they would be together. Seiichi stopped and wondered what it would be like to share a futon with Genichirou, looking at his sleeping face and cuddling into his warm chest. He ended up smiling goofily to himself while laughing.
Seiichi's phone rang at that moment, playing an annoying song some guy called Kazuki Kato sang during some Dream Live concert. The song just seemed to fit Atobe Keigo so it was his ringtone.
He answered. "Hello Keigo-kun."
"About damn time! I know you had exams, but don't you dare ignore ore-sama's calls again." said Atobe from the other line.
"Keigo-kun, there is nothing new to tell you. Genichirou and I have been too busy lately to do anything. Besides, we are leaving on a field trip for three days. I doubt I will be able to answer your calls over there." said Seiichi.
"Field trip? Where?" asked the Hyotei Captain.
"Sakuraba Inn. It's a few hours away by bus, up some mountain with a weird name. We will be training our physical and spiritual bodies, according to the teachers." said Seiichi, holding his phone between his ear and shoulder as he took out some clothes to lay them out on his bed.
"Ah, I know the place. It's a hot spring as well, no?" asked Atobe.
"It is."
"Bring the kimono I gave you. Sanada will be happy."
Seiichi chuckled lightly. "Wonderful idea, Keigo-kun." he said, going to fetch the small kimono in his closet.
"You know, it's been a while since I've been in a traditional Japanese hot spring…" mused Atobe. "Anyhow, I wish you the best and please come back with some good gossip." The phone line went dead before Seiichi could reply.
Seiichi smiled cunningly, putting down the phone. "Now, where did I put that kimono?"
The bus ride was long, but nearly all the students slept on the way, being so exhausted from exams. The exception was Akaya, who was jumping around endlessly on his seat, anxious to finally reach the hot spring inn they would be staying at for three days. The only person not there was Jackal, who was gone visiting his family in Brazil.
Seiichi was more than happy to lay his head on Genichirou's shoulder and take a well-deserved nap. He slept peacefully even when the bus trekked up the bumpy roads of the mountain.
The bus stopped around noon in front of the inn, waking everyone up. The group of students immediately got excited at the sight of the huge Japanese-style building. The crowd pushed and shoved each other in their rush to get off the bus. Akaya got to be the first out.
Genichirou and Seiichi waited for the bus to empty out before stepping out of the vehicle. And when they did, Seiichi stopped dead at what he saw.
"Seiichi! About damn time. I never thought your bus would be so slow to get here." said Atobe, wondering why peasants would even use such slow methods of transportation.
"Keigo-kun… what are you doing here?" asked Seiichi. Atobe and the other Hyotei regulars were all present, standing outside the hotel doors in light blue yukatas.
"I told you it had been a while since I went to a Japanese inn. So I thought, why not grace you with my presence here? Right Kabaji?" said Atobe.
"Usu." said Kabaji.
Seiichi sighed. This had better not interfere with his alone time with Genichirou.
"OH MY GOD, IT'S MARUI BUNTA!" screamed Jirou, the usually sleepy kid from Atobe's team. Jirou shoved Atobe out of the way to point and gawk at Rikkai's volley specialist.
"Oh no, hide me." said Marui, looking up at his fanboy in horror. "He's the guy who sneaked into our locker room showers once and stole all my clothes."
"Ah, I remember. I recall Atobe telling me that your fan still carries pictures of you and your power wrists wherever he goes." said Seiichi. Marui groaned.
"OH MY GOD, MARUI! IT'S ME! I'M YOUR BIGGEST FAN!" shouted Jirou, running in their direction now.
Atobe glared at both Marui and Jirou in turn. "Kabaji, grab him." ordered the Hyotei captain in annoyance with a snap of his fingers.
Kabaji stepped forward and grabbed Jirou before he could tackle Marui, slinging the fanboy over his shoulder.
At that moment, an old teacher from Rikkai stepped forward and called to everyone's attention. "Everyone, please grab your luggage and put them in your assigned rooms. The food is already prepared in the cafeteria. You have one hour to eat. After that, we will all take a long hike up the mountain and down to begin training our bodies." said the old teacher, dismissing them.
The students all ran to their rooms, eager for a long day.
Author's Rant:
I like Jirou and his weird obsession with Marui. AND OH LOOK ATOBE IS THERE IN PERSON THIS TIME.
Haha I purposely left out Jackal… I'm not very fond of him... don't kill me please. (are there any Jackal fangirls out there at all?)
And as I said before, this chapter is kind of forgettable and nothing really happens... sooo yeah.
Anyways, it amuses me that people enjoy my Sanada-torture as much as I do. ;D (oh I love you guys).
So should there be more Sanada-torture, y/y/y?
Next Chapter: Hot Springs + Naked Seiichi and Genichirou = What do you think?
