Chapter 6
.
"Your results will be e-mailed to you this afternoon, so I suggest you either go find Atobe or go home." The principal said before shooing Ryoma out of the office. Ryoma casually walked out and took his phone out.
'I'm done.' He texted rapidly and sent it to the monkey king. He got an immediate reply from the other which read-
'.There.' Ryoma blinked and stood there, arms crossed across his chest.
Not long, Atobe appeared from the school hallway.
"Ryoma" he nodded his head and motioned for Ryoma to follow. "Ore-sama has gotten permission from the teachers for you to follow Ore-sama to Ore-sama's classes."
"hnn…" Ryoma replied, taking in his new surroundings. Hyotei was much bigger and looked much more sophisticated than his old school. Seigaku. In Hyotei, the upper-class-men, under-class-men shit seemed more strict and nothing seemed… out of the ordinary. Ryoma felt like he was going to miss Seigaku and all of its craziness.
The two walked into math class, greeted Atobe's teacher and took a seat. Ryoma grabbed a chair at the very back of the classroom and observed the class that was taking place. He noticed a blue haired boy talking to Atobe from right next to him and a big buff looking guy sitting behind Atobe.
Ryoma's thoughts were interrupted by a very loud snapping noise. "Does anyone know how to solve this?" When silence was the only answer she got, she broke the chalk she was holding in half and pointed at Ryoma wanting to humiliate him for no good reason. "Young man, I don't like your expression. Come up here and solve this problem this instant." She puffed her chest and pointed at the problem on the board.
Ryoma grumbled but strode to where the board was located. The entire population of the classroom gasped as they looked at what was written.
'x = 32…まだまだだね (mada mada dane)'
The fact that Atobe burst out laughing out of sheer amusement surprised the specters as well. Atobe. THE Atobe was laughing, not in a 'I'm looking down on you commoner' way, but in a sincere way. Ryoma sat back down in his chair oblivious to all the stares/glares he was getting from everyone.
"That... That's right..." The teacher mumbled to herself and got back to teaching again. Ryoma continued to stare out the window resting his chin on his left hand.
"Ore-sama will drop you off at your home." Atobe informed Ryoma as soon as they got in the car. However unexpectedly, Ryoma shook his head.
"I'll go tomorrow. I like the food you serve at your home." Atobe blinked and stifled a laugh.
"Sure Ryoma… Sure…" Atobe's eyes glistened as he raised his right hand and pointed at himself with his left. "Ore-sama is sure that you don't want to leave Ore-sama's place because you will miss Ore-sama." Atobe expected a light slap or a punch, but it never came.
"Yeah, maybe." Ryoma turned his face so that Atobe couldn't see his crimson red face.
Back at the Atobe mansion, the two casually walked up to Atobe's room.
"You know Ryoma, Ore-sama owns many guest rooms, you can use one of those." Atobe raised an eyebrow. Ryoma shrugged and flung himself on Atobe's bed. The heir to the Atobe incorporation felt sudden warmness in his heart. One he could never explain. He walked over to his own bed and sat besides his sleeping kitty and ran his hand over Ryoma's soft hair. He didn't actually want Ryoma out of his house.
"Mon…" Atobe stiffened thinking he had woken up the young boy sleeping, but when he realized Ryoma was sleep talking, he leaned in closer to hear better. "Mon… key… mmhm…. King…" Atobe didn't know whether to be amused by the mention of his nickname or be mad. "Kei… mon-key…" Ryoma mumbled once more. The mentioned boy couldn't help but to chuckle. He leaned in closer and brushed his lips on the sleeping prince's forehead, before he got up from the bed and took his phone out to call someone.
"hello?" Fuji replied on the first ring.
"Ore-sama wishes to ask you something." Atobe kept his voice low so that he wouldn't wake his little prince up. He could hear slight hesitation on the other line.
"Um… What do you want…"
"I want you to go to Ryoma's house and inform his parents that he'll be coming home."
On the other side of the line, Fuji blinked twice.
"Um… You're letting Echizen go?"
"ahn."
"oh… Okay I'll go, bye!" Fuji excitedly shut his mobile phone and smiled at himself.
Atobe looked at his phone momentarily and went back to his bed and woke Ryoma up from his nap.
"Ryoma… Ryoma…" Atobe shook Ryoma's shoulder lightly.
"mhhmm…" The sleeping prince rubbed his eyes out of annoyance of being woken up "mmwaaht?" He mumbled and sat up although his eyes were still closed.
"It's almost dinner time."
"Stupid monkey king…" Ryoma mumbled before getting up. 'This will be my last dinner here… might as well enjoy it…' Ryoma thought before descending down the stairs along with 'master'.
"Everyone!" Unlike how Fuji usually acted, he ran up to all the regular members panting. Eiji cocked his head sideways while everyone else just turned around to stare. Confusion was clear on everyone's faces.
"What is it Fujiko~~ So cheerful in the morning nya~" Eiji pounced on his best friend only to be stopped by 6 strong arms.
"Eiji." The ascetic captain of the tennis team silenced the bouncing red-head.
"Anyways, I was saying, Atobe is going to let Ryoma go live with his parents." As soon as Fuji said this, everyone broke into cheers. Even the captain's lips twitched upwards suppressing a smile.
"How about we go over to Echizen's house and surprise our little brat?" Momo enthusiastically suggested.
"baka, there's no way-"
"OOH!"
"fshh…." Kaido blushed and turned away.
The regulars immediately left for Ryoma's house as soon as school ended. They all sqished themselves into Fuji's sisters car, sitting on top of each other; in other words, it was a very uncomfortable ride.
When they arrived, Fuji knocked on the door. "Excuse me!"
-silence-
The regulars exchanged nervous glances.
"Excuse me!" Fuji knocked again. This time the gates swung open but it wasn't Ryoma's mom, dad, or cousin.
"Um… Who are you?" The man who answered the door asked.
As the captain, Tezuka stepped forward and asked, "Isn't this the Echzen residence?"
The man's eyes narrowed and looked at the group of strangers but decided to answer. "The Echizen moved out yesterday. Looked like they were going to America."
"What?" A new voice summed up everyone's thoughts and he fainted.
