A/N: sorry I lost track of this story yet again, for the past few weeks I have been trying to find a job so I can sustain my lazy lifestyle... gahhh I didn't know it would be that hard though *sigh* by the way I tried uploading this chapter last week but it always said there's an error... I tried several times but it just can't upload until now...
CHAPTER V:
Yuuri's eye twitched violently, he is not sure on how to get out of this situation. He felt his stomach churn but unlike a while ago, its of different reason.
'Why does it have to be them?' Yuuri complained on his mind.
They are now face to face with his team mates who are all smirking at him and he can read those glints on his senpai-tachi's eyes. He dreaded this meeting, it had not even occurred to him that he would be put on this situation.
"Yuuri-chan, are you still with us? Or are you already in dreamland?" One of his senpai asked him playfully.
"No! Umm.. I mean you misinterpreted it, well, I mean he's my friend and we're just strolling, yeah... strolling...." Yuuri said trying his best not to stumble on his words which is not very successful.
Two of his teammates snorted, "Ooohhh really? Strolling while embracing?" One of them said sarcastically.
"Hi-hi-hi, don't worry Yuu-chan! We do understand that love transcends everything and that includes err… gender? ehehehe!" The other continued.
Their captain cleared his throat, obviously getting their attention, "Shouldn't you be introducing him to us?" He said raising his left brow at Yuuri while glaring at the others (Wolfram not included) but seemed to be hiding his smirk.
"Uhh, hehe, yeah sure! Umm, he is my friend Wolfram, uh.. He came here to um.. visit my err.. family, yeah.." Yuuri said nodding and stumbling for words then he looked up to Wolfram who is just quietly standing there and observing their conversation a while ago,
"Umm.. Wolfram these are my teammates in tennis club," And he introduced their names one by one.
"Hey, do you play tennis? And by the way, how'd you two met?"
"Um… Well you see," Yuuri was raking his brain for any reason that would be appropriate but he just stared at them blankly.
"We actually met when we are still young, I mean Yuuri is born in America after all and we used to be neighbours." Wolfram interjected.
Yuuri looked at him with wide eyes, 'He was born in America? He didn't know that one.'
"Yuuri-kun, you haven't told us you were born in America." One of his team mates voiced exactly the thoughts of Yuuri.
"Well you never asked." Yuuri replied congratulating himself for thinking quickly.
"Oh, so you were already together since you're young? Tsk.. that's something."
Yuuri and Wolfram once again blushed at that,
"You had it wrong, we're just friends okay!" Yuuri said to them half-shouting, well they are now attracting more audiences. Wolfram just stood out no matter where he is.
"I didn't say anything about you not being friends, and why are you being defensive anyway?" Came the reply and a wider grin.
"Yeah, it makes you look guiltier." Added one of them,
Wolfram is now shooting daggers to Yuuri for putting them into this situation.
"What do you think you're doing? You are making us look more stupid than with that guard a while ago!" Wolfram hissed to Yuuri.
"Then how about you do the talking here?" Yuuri hissed back.
"As if they're directing their questions to me, I don't want to look like a nosy prat because I'm not and you are!" Came the more audible reply,
"Nosy what? Hey how about you just shut up and stop calling me names, brat!" Yuuri is now again in a word battle with Wolfram.
"Ohh, so who's calling names who now huh wimp?"
"Well, if you hadn't started it first then maybe I wouldn't too, snob!"
Yuuri's teammates were now just staring at the two in front of them who seemed to be absorbed with their little hissing and glaring.
"Started what wimp? Besides I'm just telling all the truth here!" Wolfram said, smirking at the same time.
Yuuri was about to open his mouth to retort but was cut by his captain who once again clears his throat louder this time.
'Why is it that I'm the one who's always cut out? Why can't be that stupid snobbish brat?' Yuuri thought frowning at the one beside him who seemed to be enjoying himself and smiling pleasantly at his teammates.
"It's already late and we are about to head home when we saw you so I think we'll just see you tomorrow." His captain said once again glaring at his team who seemed to protest because they're having their time teasing Yuuri.
"Yeah, (clears his throat) we'll go then and see you tomorrow." And with that Yuuri grabbed Wolfram's wrist and head back to their house.
Well, they are about to head back but it seems that luck is not with our poor Yuu-chan.
They are walking through the pathway when suddenly,
"Yuuri! Yuuri!" Came a voice from behind them.
When Yuuri looked back, he saw his classmate, the one whom he asked about the last volume of the manga, running towards them.
"Hey Yuuri, haven't thought I'd see you here."
Wolfram raises one of his eyebrows while looking quizzically at Yuuri.
"Um, he's my classmate, anyway, what is it?" He first told Wolfram before asking his classmate.
"You know all about this incoming music fest right? And you know that we entered our group right?"
"Yeah?" Yuuri doesn't like where this is going.
"Well, you see, Um… Maki-chan called in just a while ago and she said that she can't participate-" He was immediately cut by Yuuri,
"No! My answer is absolutely NO!"
"But Yuuri, you're the only one I know who can-"
"Ah-ah, I'm sorry I'm busy, call her again." Once again, he cut in.
"It's only for 3 songs- Yuuri please." His classmate is now desperate.
Yuuri shook his head to emphasize his point, "I'm sorry, really." And he strode of towards their house; he hadn't notice that his companion hadn't followed him.
Wolfram looked at the back of Yuuri, shook his head and settled his eyes on Yuuri's classmate,
"So, what is this you're talking about?"
And with that, the silent conversation between the two left behind continued.
Only when Yuuri reached their doorstep that he only noticed that Wolfram is not following him behind.
"Wolfram?" He called uncertain whether to worry for the blonde boy or just to shrug it off.
But after a minute or so, the missing blonde finally emerges from the shadows of the night with a wide grin plastered on his face.
"Where'd you go?" Yuuri confronted him.
"Oh nothing just stopped by at something interesting down there." Replied Wolfram shrugging but the grin is still on his face.
Yuuri looked at him suspiciously but decided to just put it aside, besides, he is now sleepy. What with all those encounters a while ago and he still have some unfinished homeworks to deal with.
A/N: I'll try to post tonight if I can sneak from my mom, she is visiting me and my sister so yeah... ja nah... please do still review.
