AN: Wazzup? Hahaha I'm going bonkers. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this. I THINK it's nearing to the end. I THINK.

PoT is not mine.

"To-Tomo-chan, how... how can I wear such things?!" Sakuno explained as she talked to her bestfriend in the phone.

"Well, If Ryoma-sama says you'd wear it, you ought to wear it." Tomoka replied trying not to snicker.

"B-B-Buuut..." Sakuno stuttered.

"How about this, I'll bring the ears and tail for you and you just focus in cooking and such. Okay?" Tomoka said trying to soothe the panicking Sakuno over the phone.

"O-Okay." Sakuno said in a cracked tone.

"Bye, I'm going to the cosplay shop before it closes." Tomoka bid goodbye as she hung up.

Sakuno exhaled deeply, she went down stairs to look for the ingredients for the bentos. She took a big sigh of relief and went upstairs to make sure her cheerleading outfit is in her closet, luckily it was there.

Sakuno was nervous and excited at the same time, she's gonna cheer her heart out tomorrow , like always for her prince.

The next day...

"Okay everyone, we'll be having a match with St. Rudolph." Sumire announced.

"Doubles 2 Momo - Kawamura

Doubles 1 Eiji - Oishi

Singles 3 Fuji

Singles 2 Echizen and

Singles 1 Tezuka." Sumire added.

It was about 8 o clock, Their match doesn't start until 10.

"Sakuno, where are you?" Sumire called her granddaughter via cellphone.

"Tomo-chan and I are in the entrance, we're almost there." Sakuno replied huffing.

"Well, Okay. We're here on the lawn." Sumire replied, hanging up.

"Echizen, you seem excited." Momo commented at the smirking lad.

"Wait for it.." Ryoma sighed.

"Wait for what?" Momo asked.

"That." Ryoma replied with his cheekiest grin as he looked to the right.

Sakuno and Tomoka was running towards them, both wearing their cheerleading outfits but Sakuno had a little extra something on. She was wearing a light brown cat's ears and tail. Each cat ear tip there's a spot of white, the same goes with the tip of the tail.

"S-Sorry, we're late.." Sakuno panted.

"She had trouble carrying the onigiris she made.." Tomoka panted.

"Sakuno, What's with that get up?" Sumire asked as she snickered.

"I... I... I.. wanted to try it.." Sakuno blushed as an excuse.

"WOAAAHHH SAKUNO-CHAN! YOU'RE MY PARTNEEER~" Eiji exclaimed as he took her hands into his.

"Huh?" Sakuno asked.

"Look everyone, I'm a cat, she's a cat. Aren't we cute?" Eiji happily asked as he hugged the blushing freshman.

"I'm sorry Kikumaru-senpai but she's my cat." Ryoma gave a sly smile as he pulled her away from the acrobat's grasp.

"Ehhhhhhh?! Ochibi! You should share!" Eiji pouted.

"I don't like sharing." Ryoma replied as he continued to drag Sakuno away to keep a fair distance from his ogling senpais.

"She looks cute, ne Tezuka?" Fuji said with his signature smile.

Tezuka didn't reply, he simply had the end of his lips curled up a bit as he looked at the auburn haired girl.

"Percentage of Ryuzaki being a great contribution to his game play... 100% Percentage of Ryuzaki being a site for men today and the future... 100%" Inui continued to mumble as he wrote on his signature notebook.

"Seems like Inui agrees as well." Oishi added as he looked at the mumbling senior.

"Fushuuuuuu." Kaido hissed.

"Eiji-senpai and Mamushi too." Momo added wearing a sheepish grin.

"Ryoma-kun, is this okay?" Sakuno said , still blushing.

Ryoma didn't respond, he was too busy taking in the cutest sight before him.

"Ryoma-kun?" Sakuno asked.

Ryoma was still speechless.

"Ry-Ryoma-kun?" Sakuno asked once again.

"Huh? .. Oh.. It's fine." Ryoma said, keeping his face from heating.

"I made breakfast for you." Sakuno replied as she fidgets through her bag and handing it to her prince.

"I already ate.." Ryoma replied as he eyed the lunchbox he's holding.

"Is that so?.. I.. I'm sorry." Sakuno said forcing a smile.

"It doesn't mean that I won't eat it." Ryoma added as he took a sit right beside a tree.

"You don't have to.." Sakuno protests.

"I want to." Ryoma replied as he opened the bento, he saw a couple of perfectly cooked sunny side up eggs, a few strips of bacon and wouldn't you know it home made orange juice brought by his princess from her bag.

Ryoma patted on the grass next to him signaling the las to sit beside him, Sakuno obliged to do so.

The prince eyed the princess for a long time before he dug in to his breakfast. Sakuno noticed her prince's gaze, she looked at him back. Both of them holding their stare. When Ryoma had this marvelous idea, well atleast he think it was.

"Nya." Ryoma said in a straight face.

"Nya?" Sakuno repeated.

"Much better." Ryoma smirked.

"I don't understand." Sakuno replied.

"Just 'Nya' every now and then." Ryoma droned as he ate.

"Wha-Wha-.." Sakuno stuttered.

"My orders, you follow." Ryoma added, suppressing a smirk while he took a bite of the bacon.

"Hai.." Sakuno as she took a deep breath and exhaled.

"Hey Echizen, what's your line up?" Horio said, obviously him, Katsuo and Kachiro just arrived.

"Oh, Good morning Horio-kun." Sakuno greeted.

"Ryuzaki?!" Horio exclaimed.

"You're too loud." Ryoma commented as he took a sip from Sakuno's water bottle filled with juice.

"It's just.. It's just.." Horio couldn't finish his sentence, too distracted with Sakuno's get up.

"Do you want water Ryoma-kun?" Sakuno asked, for some reason Ryoma definitely saw her cat ears twitched everytime she talks to looked at the las, blinked a few times as if he was waiting for something. Sakuno took about a minute to realize that she forgot to add THAT.

"Do you want water Ry-Ryoma-kun.. Nya?" Sakuno asked once more, she was blushing as hell.

"Nah." Ryoma smirked.

"Uhmo.. Aren't you going to practice for your match... Nya?" Sakuno asked.

"Coach said after doubles there will be a lunch break then the singles match is going to start. Maybe after lunch, I will." Ryoma replied as he slumped on to the tree trunk.

"Y'know Ryuzaki, looking like that you're going to get some few stares." The prince nodded.

"You said to wear these!" Sakuno exclaimed as she scrunched up her nose.

"I know.. and I'm glad I did." Ryoma smirked as he eyed his princess once more.

Sakuno was happy she gets to sit right next to him, resting her back at the same trunk. She was blushing, she didn't quite get it herself why she'd wear some ears and a tail but it seemed that she made the cat eyed boy happy. It was fine with her, as long as he's happy.

Ryoma had no time to lose, he knew that sooner or later Jirou will show up, he's from Hyotei after all. He wants to confess not because of Jirou but because he couldn't take it any longer. He wants to kiss her, hold her hand, hug her and possibly rape her without having to say that lame excuse of practicing.

She made him feel all better, she made his heart jump, she's just too cute. Their silence made them hear the breeze coursing through them, the rustling of the leaves, the grazing of the grass, not to mention the feint voices of the other teams.

Ryoma looked to his right to see if his senpais were paying attention, good thing they weren't snooping like before.

They were too busy with their own world.

A smirk crept to Ryoma's face.

"Ryuzaki.." Ryoma called her out as he tilted his head to the left to get a glimpse of the fair maiden.

"Hmm?" Sakuno hummed as she looked at Ryoma who's gaze was piercing through her.

Sakuno blushed, their faces were a mere pinky to thumb width of distance. Ryoma held his gaze as he inched closer.

Ryoma softly placed his lips onto hers, Sakuno closed her eyes, this time their contact made her relax herself from the thought of her love one and the familiar yet addicting taste of his lips on hers. It felt prince smirked under their liplock, he closed his eyes as well. It was sweet, decadent, soft and sort of innocent thanks to Ryoma as his thoughts wondered as the kiss went for about a minute or so, their lips parted from each other, Sakuno opened her eyes, as well as Ryoma.

Sakuno looked at the smirking lad to wait for his usual excuse but it didn't came. Which surprised her, it wasn't a bad thing but it really did make her think.

"You made onigiris for everyone?" Ryoma asked.

"Y-Yes.." Sakuno replied.

"Is that so.." Ryoma sighed as he put his hands over his head as he lazed on the tree.

"Unfortunately I made quite a lot, it was times 3 of the amount I was supposed to do." Sakuno explained, chuckling a bit.

"Well, the more the better!" Eiji squeezed in to their conversation.

"Kikumaru-senpai!" Sakuno said in shock.

Ryoma coughed.

Sakuno glanced at the lad who's been looking at her.

"Nya.." Sakuno added with a nervous chuckle.

"Nya?~" Eiji's eyes lit up.

"Told her to say that from time to time... it seemed... befitting." Ryoma droned as he closed his eyes.

"Ne, Sakuno-chan, curl your fingers to make a paw then put each hand beside your cheeks nya!~" Eiji excitedly advised as he did the same.

"L-Like this?" Sakuno tried.

"Perfect!~" Eiji happily replied.

Eiji being whimsical and fun, he had this seemingly great idea to be Sakuno's cat partner.

"Ne, Minna! Look! Look! Aren't we cuuuuutee?!" Eiji announced.

Everyone looked over their way, even Ryoma did. They saw the happy go lucky acrobat, inches away from Sakuno's face who's still maintaining her pose. She was cluelesss in the situation. Eiji's right arm was wrapped around Sakuno, while his other hand was curled into a paw. EIji looked at the young las with desire as he placed his cheek on hers. He was rubbing them together just like a cat would to its kind.

"Eiji, d-don't you think, you're too close?" Oishi gulped as he felt Ryoma's rage.

"Huh? We look adorable~" Eiji replied, he focused his attention on Sakuno, still clueless on what was happening.

"Nya." Eiji said in a sexy way as he nuzzled Sakuno's nose to his.

"N-Nya?" Sakuno stuttered, taken aback from the sudden contact.

"Now, Now Eiji. We don't want you to get injured before our match." Oishi lectures, trying not to drop his sweat as he grabbed Eiji's jersey jacket and dragged him away from Sakuno and the fuming prince.

Sakuno still maintained her pose, she doesn't really know what was going on. She looked over to her prince, right before her eyes she saw him shift from a very angry lad to a smitten and flustered young man.

Ryoma looked at Sakuno, she was too cute. He wanted to rape her there and now. He kept his urges back as he took a very nervous gulp.

"Alright, Alright! Your game is starting Momo, Taka." Sumire announced.

Everyone went to the courts to cheer their teammates. It was a close fight but unfortunately the pair lost.

"Don't mind! Oishi and I will take this game~" EIji reassured the bummed sophomore.

"Go Kikumaru-senpai!" Kachiro and Katsuo cheered.

"Oishi-senpai! Take the wiiin!" Tomoka and Horio shouted.

"Hai, hai." The golden pair replied happily.

The game was blazing, Eiji and his acrobatic play was a great advantage while Oishi's analyzation and moon volley brought back the bacon.

It was 5 - 4, one more game and they'll win.

"One more game Eiji!" Oishi said to his partner.

"Uhn!~" EIji joyfully replied, he was nearing his limit but he had complete and utter fate to Oishi.

After a good 15 minutes, they've won and they finished doubles early too. It was about quarter to 12, the singles match will start 1:30 pm.

"Great game you two!" Sumire said as he patted the two teens on their backs.

The Hyotei team flawlessly won against Midori Jr High. The team strolled along the side of the court where Seigaku was like a bolt of lightning, Jirou was peering through the chained fence.

"SAKUNO-CHAAAANNN!" Jirou exclaimed, he quickly ran towards the entrance and jumped through bleacher by bleacher to near the las.

"Jirou-kun..." Sakaki sighed in grimaced. He turned around towards the courts, the whole team followed.

"One minute he's all sleepy and the next he's jumpy. Seriously that guy." Shishido commented.

"Ah! Sakaki! What brings you here in our court?" Sumire greeted.

"My boy seemed to wonder off on his own, I deeply apologized for the intrusion." Sakaki replied as he looked at the awestruck boy who's looking at the coach's granddaughter.

"No, No, It's okay. We were about to have lunch, my granddaughter seemed to have made too much onigiri, please stay." Sumire offered.

"We really must be going." Sakaki said as he turned down the offer.

"Come on now, Looks like the kids are having fun with each other's company." Sumire looked at Inui, Fuji and Oshitari conversing, Mukahi and Eiji are jumping and of course, Ryoma was restraining himself from killing Jirou.

"Well, If you insist. Pardon our intrusion." Sakaki said as he agreed.

"Everyone, Sumire offered us to have some onigiris with them. I accepted. Let's eat." Sakaki announced to his team.

"YEEEEY!" Jirou happily cheered.

"Sa-Sakuno-chan why are you wearing that?" Jirou added.

"Ryoma-kun wanted me to." Sakuno blushed as she glanced at the boy beside her.

Ryoma simply smirked at her, completely ignoring the eyesore before him.

"Is that so.. So you just do what he asks you to do.." Jirou sighed.

"N-No, It's not like that. It's be-becau-" Sakuno was cut off by her prince.

"You wouldn't understand. It's OUR thing." Ryoma said as he hooked his arms around her.

"Is that true Sakuno-chan?" Jirou asked.

Sakuno looked at her prince, he looked at her back.

"Yes, It is." Sakuno replied.

"We-" Jirou couldn't finish his sentence.

"Sakuno, excuse me dear but could you serve the onigiri?" Sumire said.

"Oh, Of course!" Sakuno replied as she hurriedly went to the huge lunchbox.

She served everyone, even the Hyotei team were enticed by her cute get up.

"Ryuzaki, where's mine?" Ryoma asked as they sat next to eachother along with Tomoka, Horio, Katsuo and Kachiro.

"Well, I saved you one onigiri because I made you a bento." Sakuno smiled at the lad.

"Huh? You made him lunch?" Jirou asked.

"Well, I always make Ryoma-kun lunch, ne Ryoma-kun?" Sakuno said, Ryoma gave a glance as a response.

"Well can I atleast sit with you?" Jirou's face lit up.

"NO." Tomoka and the three snottily said.

"T-Tough crowd." Jirou said as he rubbed the back of his neck.

"I'm really sorry, Jirou-kun." Sakuno apologized.

"Nah, It's okay. As long as I'm with you and to get to eat your cooking then I'm happy." Jirou gave a warm smile.

"Yo! Can I sit beside Sakuno-chan?" Eiji asked Tomoka.

"Sure, Kikumaru-senpai." Tomoka happily scooted.

"Thanks~" Eiji replied.

"W-What?! It's not okay for me to sit with her but it's okay for him?!" Jirou whined.

"He's our senpai." Ryoma, Tomoka and the three said in unison.

"But I'm older than you too." Jirou replied.

"It's because I'm Sakuno-chan's partner~" Eiji happily said as his cat ears popped out.

"Whateveeerr." Jirou whined as he ate the onigiri.

"Ryuzaki." Ryoma said, making the girl glanced at him.

"Wha-" Sakuno was stopped with something. Ryoma fed Sakuno a slice of beef.

"It's very good." Ryoma added.

Sakuno smiled at the lad as she swallowed.

Ryoma smiled back as they held their gazes.
