Author's note: Hey there! :)
First of all, I want to introduce myself: I'm Stacy Adler, 32 years old. And since I'm from Chile, my primary language is spanish. And, although I'm bilingual, speaking and writing in english are things very different. So, this fanfic will have writing mistakes, which I apologize for in advance. But, because I love this hobby, I tried to learn some grammar rules when translated this fanfic. If some of you want to correct a mistake, I'm all ears! :D

Talking about this fanfic, well, I kindly want to make this clear just in case: it is mine. I wrote it, and decided to translate it to english long time ago, but now "thanks" to the situation we are facing worldwide, I finally had the time LOL

Regarding to some "japanese slang", I will keep the honorific suffixes because they are a vital part of the japanese communication, but specially because they can't be translated. Thanks to them, you can infer the level of intimacy that two characters have.
But it ends there. Nothing of "onii-san", for example. Just honorific suffixes and food, of course.

The chapters are this short on purpose, that's why I'll upload the complete fanfiction very shortly.

By last, I want to thank the staff of , because they heard my petition and now it's possible to choose Fujii as a character when upload a fanfic. Thank you, guys!

And thanks, thanks in advance to all the readers that will enjoy this innocent story. In spanish I've been publishing this series (actually two, a third in process) since february of last year, that's why Fujii and Yohei are a surprisingly popular ship. I love them together! And my compatriot Salvamakoto, a very good cartoonist, has made several draws of them. You can find them in my instagram (stacy_adler_ff). Follow me! :D

Love and happiness for all.

Stacy Adler.

I'll never be like that.

"You are Haruko-chan's friend, right? Hi. My name is Yohei Mito."

It was a hot afternoon. The Shohoku school basketball team was training hard, preparing to attend the National Championship; a dream that the current captain, Takenori Akagi, planned to fulfill at any cost.

Shohoku had quite peculiar players. Among them, the most recent acquisition, Hanamichi Sakuragi, practiced the basic movements of that amazing sport with the kind of face typical in someone that wants to commit suicide, or at least, kill his closest rival: Kaede Rukawa.

In addition, both to see the latter and to support the boys, Captain Akagi's younger sister -a beautiful little girl named Haruko- went daily to witness the practices with her two best friends: Fujii and Matsui.

While Matsui was a suspicious, skeptical, and sometimes funny girl, Fujii had a frightening shyness about the male gender that put her in serious trouble when it came to relating. It was hard for her to understand how Haruko managed to talk to so many "dangerous" boys without dying in the attempt.

"There is nothing dangerous about them," objected the youngest of the Akagi. "Although Sakuragi-kun looks violent, he is actually a very sweet boy."

Fujii trembled hard every time it was her turn to hear something like that. She couldn't imagine falling like Haruko, head over heels in love with a tall, bully-looking boy, and she was completely sure she wouldn't go through with something like that. However, the summer decided to teach Fujii a very special lesson: "what goes around comes around".
