rabeA/N: Yo minna-san!! I'm bored right now so I decided to make a chap for `A New Beginning' , so…yeah
Enjoy! *bows*
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I was busy doing my homework when I heard a knock on my door.
"Come in."
"Yo, Sayuri, umm. About today…"Niou muttered the 2nd sentence.
"Hm? Oh that? Yeah, I forgive you for chasing me around school."
His face brightened "Hontou?"
"Nope," I said
"Well, as the new manager of the boys' tennis club, I will make it a living hell." His face was a mixture of shock,confusion, and horror.
I wish I had my camera because his face was priceless! Wait! I have a camera in my phone…
Click.
He blinked.
Click.
I hid my phone as fast as I can before he tried to grab it.
"Hey! Delete those!"
"Iyada!! These are very good blackmail photos!"
"Do you even know how to blackmail!?"
"I will print this picture and post it all over school if you don't stop."
"…"
"Good boy."
He just pretended to be hurt and went downstairs to annoy his little brother, probably.
I felt something soft rub against my legs, it was Sayo, purring on my legs. I picked her up and rubbed my cheek against hers, "You. Are. Too. Cute!!" I made sure to not to make her suffocate, well, I was giving her the killer hug. Hey, I have a thing for cute things.
Someone opened the door and not bothered to knock.
"Ever heard of knocking?"
"In this house? It's not possible."
"Haha, funny. What do you want?"
"Just to warn you. The team is coming here tomorrow to `discuss about the Kantou tournament'."
"The whole team!?"
"No you idiot! I mean the regulars! Wow, you're dense."
"You're a jerk, you know that?"
"Yes. Yes I am, and thanks for noticing."
"…"
Just then, Sayo started growling at Niou.
`Thank Kami-sama for that cub!'
"Ah! I'll probably get going now. Remember what I said!" and with that, he left.
"Hmm….Wonder what I'll do to escape the house tomorrow…Ah! I'll ask Yumi-chan if she's free!"
(p.s. if you don't know who she is…read the second chap -___-)
`Konbanwa, Yumi-chan! I was just wondering…Are you free tomorrow?' I texted her.
`Yeah, why do you ask?'
`I just wanna... you know. hang out. XD'
`Okay, but what do you want to do?'
`I was wondering either to go bowling, to go to the mall, or to just hang around the park. If that sounds okay to you… gomen, I didn't think this one through.'
`Iie, Daijobu desuka. So see you tomorrow then.'
` Un! Ja matta! '
Yatta! I won't be stuck with the regulars tomorrow! And I'll have something to do! Plus! It's with my friend!
(Fast forward to tomorrow morning.)
I noticed that I got a text… from Yumi
`Ohayo, Sayuri-chan!
Gomenasai, I won't be able to make it today, my cousin suddenly wanted to visit and, my brothers aren't around so…yeah. Gomen! I'll make it up for next time, ne?
-Yumi'
I felt my jaw hit the floor…literally; I fell when I reached for my phone.
My eyes were as wide as the sun, and my jaw was as long as the Empire State Building.
I. WILL. DIE.
Nooo!! Why the hell is her cousin coming today!? Why today of all times!? Argh!!
"Ne, Sayuri, breakfast is ready, and the team will be here around 11:00am."
"Un, what time is it?"
"10:30am" He smirked…
"…."
He grinned like a 3-year-old receiving candy. I pushed him out of the room and got myself ready…for all hell to break loose.
(Fast forward to after breakfast, done getting ready and 5 minutes before the regulars get there)
I know!! I'll go to the tennis street courts I saw a while back!
So, I got my tennis bag, my wallet, cellphone and all other appropriate things needed.
"Haru-chan~ I'll be at the street tennis courts. Okay? Ja ne." I said happily because I won't be stuck at the house doing nothing.
I opened the door and hit a wall….wait….since when did the wall have abs!? I looked up and saw Sanada with a little bit of light pink on his cheeks… This is good blackmail…
"Ah, gomen gomen, Sanada-san." I said sweat dropping, I saw Yukimura and he, as usual, had a smile on his face.
"Ah, Seiichi-kun, I accept your request." I said with an evil grin,
"Hontou? Arigatou Sayuri-chan." He said with a bigger smile on his face, It kind of rivaled with mine.
I gave a bigger smile and his dropped a little bit.
`I win this round…. Bu-ya.'
"Ja ne. Yukimura-buchou~" I said with a teasing smile.
And, of I went to the tennis courts.
(I'll skip the way there. Well because she kinda had an accident-
Sayuri: WHAT THE HELL IS UP WITH HIM!? THAT BASTA-
-the author prohibits the end of that sentence-)
I walked to the tennis courts grumpily but my face lightened up when I saw…
"Eiji-kun!!"
"Sa-chan!!"
"Eiji-kun!"
"Sa-chan!"
"Eiji- oh forget this, come here you cat loving person!!"
Okay, so I know Kikumaru Eiji from Seigaku… so what? It's not like I'm leaking information now am I?
Me and Eiji had a super-death-hug to each other well, because we miss each other, I did go to Seigaku for Elementary, Hyoutei for Middle school, and now Rikkai Dai for High School.
"Why did you come here?" he asked after the death hug we gave to each other.
"It was either here, or stuck at home." I stated.
"So, you still play tennis huh?"
"Why do you think I'm here?"
"Right, right. Anyway, up for a game of doubles? You and me, Oishi and Momo."
"Eto…Momo?"
"Ahh, Momo! Come here!" Some tall dude with spikey long hair went near us.
"Ahh, Sempai, who's the beauty over there?"
"Momo! She's my friend. Sa-chan, meet Momo, Momo Meet Sayuri."
"Yoroshiku, onegaishemasu."
"Un, Yoroshiku."
"Now, back to that game…." And so we played a game.
-After game….Sayuri&Eiji pair won by 6-4-
"Waah! I knew Sa-chan was good, but not this good!"
"Should I take that as a compliment or an insult?"
"Comment! Comment! Take it as a comment!"
"Okay. Thanks."
He grinned and did a 'V' sign with his fingers. "Nandemonai."
"Hai, hai."
"Ne, what time is it?" He asked.
"Um, around 12:30, doushite?"
"Hmm, Ah! Wanna have lunch with me? My treat!"
"Hmm, depends…where are we eating?"
"My favorite, at a burger shop!"
"As usual, you're gonna order 5-8 burgers?"
"Yup!"
"Ok, c'mon let's go."
"Ok."
I checked my phone to see if anyone texted or called me and found 2 texts, 1 coming from Niou and the other from Yukimura, hmm, wonder why.
-Hey. Are you coming home for lunch? Mom's asking.
-Niou-
-Ne, Since you are now the Manager of the Boys tennis club, I recommend you to learn martial arts, and how to use a katana. Just in case.
-Yukimura ;) –
So, I replied.
-I'm eating out with a friend. -Sayuri-
And
-Umm, I already know Martial Arts, but not much on the Katana thing, and…
Why do I have to learn? –Sayuri -
I put my phone in my pocket and went on with Eiji, there I met the Seigaku tennis team, even Tezuka was there, the enemy of Atobe. Yeah, even I was shocked.
We ate lunch, practically a buffet for Eiji, Momo, and Echizen, but all of us ate normally, exept the hungry trio. We chatted for a while and then it lead to a topic of girls…for some reason.
"So, Momo, who's the girl you like?" Eiji eagerly asked,
Momo sighed "Fine, but don't tell her okay? She was my best friend and childhood friend, and my first love too... but she transferred to Rikkai Dai for high school. Her name is Shina Yumi."
I chocked on my drink, loudly…
"Harugane-san! Ahh! What do we do? Quick, Fuji, tap her back!"
So, Fuji, who was beside me, tapped my back…too hard, but it somehow worked.
"Ne, Harugane-san, Daijobu?"
"U-Un." I sort of blushed because he was too close to my face.
"Why did you suddenly choke on your drink?" Oishi asked
"Sh-Sh-Shina Yumi!?"
"U-Un, why? Please tell me you don't know her!" Momo pleaded
"I-I know her…."
"Eh!?" Everyone shouted.
"What? I'm from Rikkai Dai, okay?"
"So, how's she like? What does she look like? Is she nice?" they bombed me with questions.
"U-Um, Chotto Matte." I said and searched for a picture we took together for a random reason.
"Hai." I showed them a picture of me and Yumi on my phone.
"Waah! Kawaii! Nice choice Momo!! You're becoming a man!" Eiji said in a teasing-father…ish choice.
Everyone sweat dropped, excluding Eiji, Fuji and Tezuka, who remained silent….since the beginning.
I took my phone back and, everyone continued with their crushes.
"Now, it's ochibi's turn!!"
"Eh, why me?"
"Because I say so!"
"…Fine…I have an interest in Aizaki Konota…"
"Ha! I knew it! Momo! My 800 yen awaits!"
"..." Momo sighed.
"Next, Fujiko!! You're next!"
"Hmm, Fine, she's my neighbor, and happens to go to Rikkai Dai as well, but she's very shy, but very fun to tease. Her name is Kawasaki Yuuki."
"…I-I've heard of her…she's actually very popular in rumors, and I've heard from Yumi-chan that she's a leader of a rebel group of some sort."
"Ah, that's not true, but please be friends with her? She's not that good at making friends, Ne?"
"Un, okay, next. Eiji! You're next!"
"Ehh!? U-Um…" He blushed a very, very deep shade of red.
"Shirosawa Yui…"
Oishi dropped his French fry.
"M-M-My cousin!?"
"Gomen, Oishi! Please don't kill me!" Eiji hid behind Momo.
"Maa Maa. Next up, Tezuka!" I said pointing at him.
He looked up from the book he was reading and looked at me with a questioning look.
"What?"
"You weren't listening? Tell us who you like, please?"
"…" He went back to reading his book.
"…Hey! All the guys must say who they like!"
"….No." He said plainly.
"Fuji-kun?" I whispered to the tensai beside me.
"Hai?"
"Do you have any good blackmailing photos of Tezuka-san?"
"Un, why?"
"Can I borrow it for a while?"
"Only if I get some blackmail material back."
"Hmm, I'll give you a photo of Sanada in a bunny suit."
"Now, where did you get that?"
"Haru-chan forced him to. I don't know how, or why, but I have it."
"Hmm, deal."
And with that we shook hands. Smiling evilly.
"Tezuka, why don't you do it? Or do you want `that' picture around school?"
"…You wouldn't." He said
"Oh, yes I would."
"…I have no interest in any girls…in the meantime."
"Okay, we totally believe you…." I said
"Hontou?"
"…Yeah….NOT! NOW SPILL IT!!"
"Fine….."
He sighed "I-have-this-sort-of-interest-in-this-girl-named-Fujisaki-Ai." Wow, that was quick words…
"We still can't understand it…" I said with a sly grin, since I got the message.
"Sorry, but I've got to go. Ja." He said, hurrying out of the fast-food resto.
"Ahh! Look at the time! Sorry, I've got to go!" I said because it was already 5:30pm.
"Gah! Gomen, Eiji, just tell me who they like later call me ok? Ja!"
"Un, Ja matta ne!"
With that, I left the burger place. And said Tezuka and a girl beside a tree, he got closer to her, and they were close to kissing….WHAT AM I THINKING!? CAMERA! CAMERA!
I got my cellphone camera and took a picture of them ALMOST kissing.
And with that, I went home.
(fast forward to her opening the door to her(Niou's) house)
"…What the-!?"
"Ah, Sayuri-san, Niou decided to make it a sleepover, and I'll tell you why later." (By, "I'll tell you why later" he's referring to the Katana thing.) Yukimura said.
"B-But isn't it only 6:00pm?"
"No, it's not, it's 6:30pm actually…" Niou said.
I looked at my watch…woah, it took me that long?
"Geh, It took me that long?" I sighed "I'll be in my room…"
"Hai, hai. Oh yeah, you'll have to sleep with Onee-san tonight, we'll need the room."
"Haru-chan, why did you pick my room for them to sleep in?"
"Because you room use to be the guest room. Don't worry I'll make sure to tell them not to touch your stuff." He said with a grin.
"…Fine, does Misaki-chan know this?"
"Un, in fact, she suggested it."
I sighed and went to my room, with Sayo sleeping on the bed.
"Sayo, Get up, we'll change rooms for today." I said petting Sayo's head
"Grrrr…." She said getting up and sniffing something.
"Ah, right, sensitive to guys, oh well. C'mon Sayo."
I stood up and pat my lap. She got off the bed and followed me to Misaki-chan(Niou's older sister)'s room.
"Anou, Misaki-chan?"
"Ah, Come in, don't worry…" She then saw Sayo get in "Waaah! Kawaii~!" she said and almost sqeezed Sayo. Thank Kami-sama that she's gentle.
"Ehehe, gomen for intruding you, Haru-chan suddenly announced this to me so…"
"Ah? It's ok. It's rare for Masa-chan to have sleepovers anyway." She said with a grin.
"Misaki! Sayuri! Dinner's ready!" Haruna-san (Niou's mom who's name and age I guessed) said
"Hai~!" we said
"Masa-chan and his friends will be eating later, so don't worry about left-overs." Niou's Mom said while flapping her hand up and down…freaky, I thought only people in the 'olden' days do that…
"A-ah, Hai."
"Itadakimasu!"
(Fast forward to after dinner.)
"I'll go up and get my stuff from the room for the night, Misaki-chan."
"Ok, just make sure that you bring your toothbrush with you too." I nodded when she said that and went to my room.
"Excuse me guys, I'll just be getting some stuf-…." I stopped mid sentence….
I stared wide-eyed at the boys in front of me… wait, let me reface that…
I stared wide-eyed and dumbfounded at the boys HALF-NAKED in front of me…
I quickly closed the door and opened it again, there I saw most of the guys wrapped around blankets like they were freezing….
"U-Um…. I'm just gonna get my stuff and leave….and won't ask why there are 5 half-naked guys in the room…" well, technically, Sanada, Yukimura, and Jackal were fully dress and the rest were shirtless and in boxers…(I won't go in detail for that…) so I got some pajamas, my toothbrush and other necessary stuff, and put my tennis bag in the closet. "Oyasumi…" I whispered when I left the room.
When I got to Misaki's room I quickly went to her bathroom, bushed my teeth, washed my face, and went straight to the futon beside her bed and read a book. The book was entitled "Eclipse" apparently I was on the 3rd book of "Twilight" and I really like it. (Sorry, I'm a twilight fan and, I'm currently reading Eclipse so… ehehehe… anyway back to story)
After I read a few chapters of the book, I put the bookmark in the book, and pulled the comforter a little higher, until it reached my neck.
Sayo curled into a ball beside me and fell asleep a while ago, so I don't have to worry about her sleeping.
And with that, I fell asleep.
