Hyotei's First Date

By: NarutoandBleach

When Ryoma gets word that the Hyoutei Captain has become obsessed with him, everyone knows that something is up and Ryoma is keeping secrets from his friends. Are they really dating each other or is this simply a plan to bring two rivals together as one?

[Royal Marriage… or Is it?]

The manager immediately exits his post and kneeled down to wake the two fainting students from Hyotei while Kenya grabbed a fan from his pocket to try and wipe the sweat from their faces. As Yuushi and Shishido recovered, they stood up and said, "What the hell just happened?"

"You guys fainted on the floor and the CDs are all over the place. Luckily, the manager here was able to wake you guys up and prevented you from having any other panic attacks." Smiled Kenya as he carefully lifted his cousin and Shishido onto their feet.

"That was certainly unexpected of us." Said Shishido.

"You're right, but we need to help clean up this place since we cannot leave it a mess like this. After all, we promised to help those three find love right? Luckily we have picked out the perfect sort of rock and roll music for them to listen to and eventually, that girl from Shitenhouji will fall for our captain in no time." Smiled Yuushi.

"Cuz, are you forgetting that Ryoma is also in on this as well? He chose you to be his lover. Furthermore, I just got word that the Child of God from Rikkai Dai has started to develop a love relationship with Ryoma, including Genichirou Sanada, Syuusuke Fuji, and Tezuka Kunimitsu since they also want to sing with your boyfriend." Stated kenya.

Yuushi and Shishido were confused as they left the store after cleaning the floor. As they left in stride, they turned their attention towards kenya as he studied the contents of the CDs they bought earlier. Furthermore, the titles of the songs seem to be making perfect sense because these could convince Ryoma to date all the men from different schools because Atobe and Tezuka have memorized these songs by heart already and they would want Ryoma to try it out to see if he was able to sing them as well.

As the gang arrived in Osaka, they noticed that Ryoma and Atobe are not in the city and have checked themselves into the hotel not too long ago. So they decided to head over to the control room to reconvene before handing out the presents for Atobe and the others. However, they noticed that four higa chuu students were praying silently at a nearby temple and decided to check it out. As they arrived, they could see them trying to find ways to get back to school since their coach left them in Osaka to survive on their own.

"Are you guys all right?" asked Yuushi.

"Yeah, we're fine. We're just praying and figuring out a plan on how to get home to Naniwa." Said one of the students with full black and partial white hair.

"Yes, what he said. So what are you guys doing here in Osaka?" asked Yuujirou.

"Well, we had to make a couple of purchases at the music store earlier and you guys would not believe this when we tell you that Atobe is starting a royal marriage with Ryoma and that lucky girl from Shitenhouji." Whispered Yuushi.

All four of the Higa Chuu members were shocked as they went face-planting to the ground before laughing like crazy at the lamest joke ever said by Yuushi. Unfortunately, Shishido didn't understand what these weirdos were laughing about. Atobe was really being serious about the wedding so how was any of this funny to them? Unbeknownst to Ryoma, he already overheard the convo and rushed over to see what was going on.

"Yuushi-sempai, what are you doing here? And aren't you guys from Higa Chuu?" he said to the people in front of him.

"Yes, but the question is: what are you guys doing here?" asked Yuujirou

"Keigo and I just stopped by to visit Shiraishi in Osaka since Monkey king, er—I mean Atobe was seeking advice from the health minister on how to get all the girls to fall for him. If you must know…" began Ryoma, but he was suddenly cut off

"We heard the rumors dude. So is it true that you are going to be marrying Atobe?" asked Hirakoba.

"No, I never said that I wanted to marry him! Besides, this is all jokes so don't listen to him. He is just trying to distract me so that the marriage can be arranged." Said Ryoma nervously.

The boys from Higa Chuu had confused looks on their faces before turning their attention towards Ryoma and said, "Don't lie to us! We heard loud and clear from Yuushi's cousin that your pompous jerk of a boyfriend asked for your hand in marriage and he is now hitting up on a girl here in Osaka. You might as well tell us the truth or do you want us to get Kite and Tanishi to whup your ass in tennis again?" they warned.

Ryoma immediately shuddered in disbelief as he took Yuushi's hand and walked over to a nearby bush and said, "What's the deal? What did your cousin tell you anyway?"

"Ryoma-san, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, we are only doing this because my captain needed advice from the health expert, just play along, okay?" whispered Yuushi.

"What? Are you insane!? Do you really think I am the type of guy that will marry Atobe? I swear I am not wearing a dress since I am certain that Kintaro is planning something big for the festivities later. Also, what is that in your hand?" asked Ryoma.

"What, these? Oh, they are just the music CDs that me and Shishido bought at the store earlier since his girlfriend likes Rock and Roll. Besides, I thought we would show our token of appreciation for our captain since he is dead set on getting that cheerleading girl to fall for him in addition to Ann and you. If my prediction is correct, then there is a chance that he is going to want to have a threesome in bed. I don't know how that will turn out but I can only guess that the girls will go for it somehow."

Ryoma was shocked at that response before deadpanning towards the Higa Boys who were snickering like crazy. "What are you guys laughing about? This is not a laughing matter! I can't seriously let you guys approve of this when Atobe is around here."

"Oh really? I am afraid that we cannot stop the marriage between you three and the obnoxious leader of Hyotei, but we do share your sentiments since you don't want to go through with this. However, Kite and tanishi are really asking you to do this on their behalf since they want to see what it is like for a popular guy like to propose to him. We need a video of this to keep for our records so make it good, brat!" stated Yuujiro.

"you guys are supposed to be supporting me, not Keigo! Yuushi-sempai , stop laughing and give me a little help here?"

"Sorry brat! I'm afraid that I cannot help you this time since the diva is right behind you. So I am going to give this to him before you head back to your hotel. Later my friend!" and with that, Yuushi and the Higa chuu boys dashed out quickly to avoid being caught by Atobe for spying on his wedding.

"He always does this in front of my lover and those good for nothing brats from the peanut gallery. I will sort out his punishment later on back at Hyotei. Besides, I have to thank him and Shishido for their help in the music department and will reduce the punishment later." Thought Atobe as he took the CDs before taking Ryoma back into the hotel.

Back in the control room, Yuushi, Kenya, and Shishido paused to take a quick breather before Yukimura and Sanada handed them some bottled water from the kitchen before they settled down on the couches. Just then Kite and Tanishi could see their fellow teammates running into the control room begging for water as they took their time to breath. Once that was done, Sanada and Akaya settled the Higa Chuu club members down onto chairs before fanning them to make sure they don't sweat profusely.

"So tell us guys, what did you see?" asked Kite.

"you won't believe this but we saw Yuushi actually letting Ryoma marry Atobe immediately since he wants a threesome in his house. No, it's not a joke since we heard every word of it. Therefore, it is only in our best interest to let Atobe-sama handle this since he wants more than one person on his bed tonight." Said Yuujirou

Yes, he's right. Kami help us, but Yuushi-san said it would be a good idea for Naruto to play along with this since Atobe needs his cooperation as long as the girls will follow suit. It is only a matter of time before the wedding will take place." Continued Chinen.

Everyone was shocked at what they had said, especially Sanada since he couldn't believe at what just happened.

"Let me get this straight, Yuushi-sempai wants Ryoma to marry that son of a gun but he doesn't want to because he fears this could impact his future as a tennis player right? Now you're telling us that Atobe wants a threesome in his bed in addition to having a royal marriage? How preposterous! That fool, can't even get a girlfriend for himself let alone a girl from Shitenhouji. I will admit, that diva has got guts doing a threesome. I know he isn't that crazy, but this is just crossing the line! Even that brat agreed to do this with yuushi's approval? Well then, yukimura-buchou!" barked Sanada.

"H-Hai, fuku-buchou!" said Yukimura.

"Pack your bags and let's go to Osaka. It's time for us to pay a visit to those two lovebirds, and if he wants a kiss, he has to get it from the emperor of tennis. After all, I am the only one that tried to kiss him when we did the cinderalla play not too long ago so it is only fair that I take a shot at that brat." said Sanada as a smirk appeared on his face.

"Wait, are you sure about this? For all we know you don't have a love relationship with that brat. What makes you so sure you can pull this off, Fuku-buchou?" asked Akaya indignantly.

"If at first you don't succeed, try again until you get that cheeky brat to fall for a handsome guy like me." Said Sanada with his unusual grin.

Everyone were confused at Sanada's statement, but Akaya decided to shrug it off since he doesn't know what kind of outcome this will have on Rikkaidai. After all, Sanada was the sort of person that anyone could get along with because he cares a lot about his teammates, especially Ryoma and Sakuno since they were the ones that made him get stronger and not falter. Furthermore, Yukimura is planning to personally thank Ryoma for changing his outlook on tennis because it seems that he is falling for his beloved relative since they are like cousins. As for Akaya, he could see his fuku-buchou blushing furiously and smiled, "Don't tell me you are falling for that brat?"

"Don't be ridiculous, seaweed head! I am just looking out for that brat's best interest at heart and yes I do care about him. I don't want to steer his love in the wrong direction because who knows what sort of sordid love affair he could end up with. Anyway though, just watch and you will understand how love works." Said genichiro as he and Yukimura left the room.

Back in Osaka, Ryoma was beyond pissed after hearing the rumors from the silent blue-haired freak and wanted some answers straight away. He then rushed towards Atobe's room and pounded on the door repeatedly before he was sent straight onto the bed by the diva.

"Do you even know how to keep a secret? Now the entire Higa Chuu tennis club members know about the scandal broiling between us. I swear to kami you are so unbelievable!" shouted Ryoma angrily.

"Ore-sama knows how to keep secrets, you impertinent brat! The only reason why you couldn't accept a royal marriage is because you are too nervous to accept a guy like me. Furthermore, it shows that you haven't showed your true feelings about me. Do I have to spell it out for you? We are going to get married whether you like it or not. Don't try to get away from this because around here, I call the shots and you will follow my every command!" boomed Atobe.

"Oh really? Since when am I your dog to bark orders at? Do you know how embarrassing this is to me and my school? I mean what if sakuno finds out I cheated on her? How would she feel then?" grumbled Ryoma.

"Your former girlfriend has taken an interest in Kevin now so you have nothing to worry about. Can you please stop thinking about Sakuno and focus your love on me for a while? I mean look at yourself, you got your future together with me and everyone else that you could possibly want to marry later on." Said Atobe.

"Of all the girls that I have at my school, none were able to date me because they said that they are either taken or just not particularly interested in me. But when you got Sakuno starts going after Kevin, it decreases my chances to get a girl of my dreams and…"

"Oh don't say that! At least you have me and all the other cute 14 year old boys for your pleasure and enjoyment. I mean after all, you said you like boys and girls who are older than you right? Well, it seems that Genichirou and Yukimura are on their way to meet you now since I just got a message from Yuushi saying that they want to form a love relationship with you. Isn't that sweet of them to do for a popular guy like you? No wonder you are the prince of romance and I am the king of love since we both have the same reason to marry you." Smiled Atobe

"You are so evil, you know that? But regardless, I will let this slide for now. But how did you even find out about the Rikkaidai masters falling in love with me?" asked Ryoma.

"Why do you want to know? All you have to do is follow through with our plans because Yuushi invited Fuji Syuusuke to participate in this love scheme as well since we all know how obsessed he is with you. We are not taking any chances here so cooperate with us and we shall ensure this wedding goes through without a hitch. If you fail to comply, then I am afraid that you have no hope of finding love in the near future. Therefore, I am allowing you to sleep with me tonight so that you will be more relaxed about this." Said Atobe as he grabs Ryoma by his waist and held him tightly.

"Atobe!…. Can't….breathe!" said Ryoma as he winced in pain.

"Gomen, Ryoma! But this is only a test of our true love so do not fail me." Said Atobe.

Just then, Genichirou and Yukimura arrived in the hotel and asked the front desk for the room number of Atobe and Ryoma. As soon as the woman handed them the key, they immediately took the elevator towards the fourth floor. As they arrived, they went to find room 403 and surprisingly, all of the rooms have been lined up according to even and odd numbers. Once they reached the end of the hallway, they found Ryoma and atobe's room and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" asked Atobe.

"The emperor and the Child of God wishes to grace ourselves in your presence, Atobe-Sama." Said Genichirou.

"Just a minute, Sanada, we will be with you in a few minutes." Said Atobe as he scooped Ryoma off the bed before opening the door. Once they entered, Yukimura could see that the brat was still in bed playing his Game Boy Advanced while Atobe was cleaning himself in the bathroom. Soon, Genichirou entered the bathroom before Atobe could have a chance to react.

"genichirou! What is the meaning of this? Ore-sama demands you to give me privacy!" shouted Atobe.

"Come now, Keigo-sama. We all know the rumors that have been going on since you first met him. I can see it in your eyes that you are being serious about hosting a royal marriage with that brat right? Well, not if I can help it! As the emperor of Rikkaidai, I demand that you let me have a chance to date him and marry him! You have been hogging that brat for far too long! When will you give me and Yukimura a chance to coddle him?"

"Excuse me? Since when did you start falling for that prince?" asked Keigo.

"Ever since he beat Akaya in a match and I feel that he might prove useful to me at Rikkaidai if he wants to have a future together with me." Stated Genichirou.

"That brat belongs to me since his future is with Hyoutei!" said Keigo with a tick above his forehead.

"Sorry, but we called dibs on him, Keigo-sama. So this time, we will be the ones to show him a good time and we are dying to get to know him better. At this point, can we borrow Ryoma for tomorrow? We feel that this kid is a lost cause and we want to make his life easier for him, if you know what we mean." Stated Yukimura.

"Fine, but I expect that you return him to me by the end of tomorrow night." Fumed Atobe as he slowly pushes Genichirou out of the bathroom door before slamming it shut. At that moment, Sanada breathed a sigh of relief as he took a seat across from Ryoma's bed and said, "Ryoma, you are not the only person that is falling for Atobe's so called love trance. We also wanted a piece of the action and decided to see if we are worthy enough to be your lover because from what Yuushi and the gang told us, he wants us to follow you and see if we have what it takes to show our love for a kid like you, is that okay with you?"

Ryoma looked at him for a moment and was reluctant at first, but as he eyed the emperor he immediately nodded since he has been waiting for this for a long time.

"Wonderful! So it seems that you are finally approving us to spend more time with you. I am glad you are seeing things our way!" smiled Genichirou as he escorted the young prince out of the room with Yukimura following close behind.

"Yeah, but are you sure that this is what you want for me? I mean the whole marriage thing is weird and I am not sure if I am ready for something like this. After all, I am still a kid and I will almost be 13. If I am going to get married now, I would be way too young to be a father since that would be a lot of responsibilities on my part. Please don't make me go through with the wedding because my parents could throw a fit with me if I start the royal marriage now. In the meantime, let's just keep this as a date because if we hold the wedding now, my family wouldn't approve of this, I'm begging you!"

Sanada looked at the kid for a moment and sighed since he had never heard such a moving speech from him. Furthermore, seeing this kid begging for a chance to just experience a date started putting a smile on his face since he still hasn't had a chance to play ryoma in a match yet.

"How about this: we will hold off the wedding until after we had our tennis match, will that be okay with you, Echizen? We came all this way for a little date and we don't want to let that go to waste. I promise this match will ensure that you and I will spend our little time together at any place of me or Yukimura's choosing." Continued Sanada.

Ryoma gave that a thought for a moment and said, "Sure, that will do. But from now on, please call me Ryoma since calling me by my last name just annoys me to no end. I am sure you understand that due to the amount of fan girls doing that me on the courts and eventually, the coach had to separate the girls from the courts so that I could practice in peace." Finished Ryoma.

"Sure, Ryoma-kun. Anyway, let's get started with our match!" said Sanada as he took Ryoma's hand and rushed towards a nearby park with Yukimura watching them intensely. Once they arrived, Yukimura decided to host the match, "this will be a one set game between Rikkaidai's Genichirou Sanada and Segaku's Echizen Ryoma. Are you both ready? Begin!"

As the match began, Ryoma started off with some strong advanced moves including the cool drive and Drive B which surprised Sanada. However, his opponent wasn't flinching one bit because he can see why this kid had come a long way since he first started the sport. This time, Yukimura could clearly see that his cousin was on a whole different level of tennis and would replace him as the next child of god. However, his chances of taking that title would be too much for that little kid to handle on his own. Furthermore, it would be a shame to let a kid from Seigaku taking control of the Rikkaidai tennis grounds since he does not want everyone else to find out about them secretly dating the brat.

Soon, Sanada could see that Ryoma had exerted a lot of energy throughout the game as he has accumulated at least 3 wins so far for the first set while his opponent has two. There was still only one game left to win since Sanada had gone easy on Ryoma because he didn't want to pressure the brat too much because he wants to have an easy-going relationship with him. Furthermore, the first time that these two met, they didn't really know each other very well due to Yukimura's health condition in the hospital previously. After that, both opponents settled their rivalry in the kanto tournament and became friends afterwards without having any further confrontations. But now, Sanada has decided to make love with him after trying to stop Atobe from accomplishing his goal since he is also trying to do the same thing that no one else had ever done.

Back in the match, ryoma has landed some pretty decent shots, but after a while, Sanada had already reached his limit and paused to wipe the sweat off his face before heading over to the vending machines for a little soda. Luckily, Ryoma immediately gave Sanada the ponta from the machine to cool him down before the match ends.

"Thanks, Ryo-kun, that was just what I needed." Said Sanada as he winked at the kid.

"Hey no problems. After all, dating you seems to be helping me a lot these days. Perhaps after this is over, we could head over to Yukimura's place for a little get-together. I am sure Atobe wouldn't mind though."

"I'm afraid that we will have to rearrange that for another time because you know how Atobe gets when I keep you for such a long time. Anyway though, how did you like the tennis match that we had earlier?" said Genichirou.

"It was memorable and enjoyable, Sanada-sempai. However, I still need to get some shopping done since I need to get a few things for Atobe's new girlfriend." Replied Ryoma.

"Allow me to accompany you since we do have to eat at a fancy restaurant soon." Smiled Genichirou as he took the kid's hand and exited the tennis courts with an out of breath Yukimura following close behind them. As they arrived at the flower shop, the owner seems to recognize the faces and immediately rushed out to greet them.

"Welcome to Kuranosuke's flower shop, Ryoma-kun, Sanada-sama, how may I help you guys today?" said the owner.

Ryoma and genichirou immediately turned and saw the familiar face from before since he was the same guy that gave the love advice to Atobe earlier. "What are you doing here, Kuranosuke-sempai?"

"Well, since I run the flower shop with Takoyaki here at the park, I am a huge botany fan and I love flowers just as much as she does. Furthermore, everyone around Osaka has been reading my front page column in the newspaper and they are fascinated with the different kinds of plants that I have been adding to the store so far. Besides, we got a ton of poisonous plants here that you don't want to get on your skins. Furthermore, my kouhai zaizen talks about this stuff too much since he has kept a record of the plants in his data book. Anyway, what can I get for you, Ryoma-kun?" asked Shiraishi

"Well, since you taught him about love, I would like to return the favor and buy one of the non-poisonous plants that you have on your shelves because this is the only way to repay our debts to you." Smiled Ryoma.

"Sure, just follow me towards the back area and I will pick out the tulips and the Bonsai plants for your friend's date." Said Kuranosuke

As the duo heads to the back, Ryoma was fascinated by the amount of flowers that the shop had and wanted to take a photograph to keep it in his memory forever. Furthermore, he immediately sent the photo directly onto Atobe's phone and hoping that he will share it with his girlfriend later on. As Atobe looked at the photo of the show and the flowers he bought, a smirk appeared on his face. "That brat is still thinking about me eh? He just never ceases to amaze me with his token of appreciation. I wonder how well he is doing on his date with Sanada and Yukimura right now."

Back at the shop, Ryoma and sanada have picked out their flowers and billed Kuranosuke before leaving since they care aware that Atobe is planning to present the flowers to his lover during the party later on. As they left, the team could see Yukimura trying to enter the shop to find his lover and surprisingly enough, he was still working on organizing the flowers.

"Can I help you, Yukimura?" asked Shiraishi.

"Yes, you can start by telling me why haven't you dated me yet? I had to run all the way down to Osaka to find you but Toyama tells me you were not at his house. So what's the deal? Why have you not confessed your feelings to me?"

"Excuse me?" asked a confused Shiraishi.

"You heard me, I thought we had a thing for each other and then you just run off and go after Fuji? How dare you! I thought you loved me more than that sadistic sempai!" barked Yukimura.

"Yukimura-buchou, calm down. I didn't say I would cheat on you; it's just that Fuji gave me a couple of his plants to be sold here since he didn't want them anymore. Who told you that I was dating him?" groaned Shiraishi.

"So you are really telling the truth? You and Fuji are not romantically involved?" asked Yukimura.

"No, absolutely not, and I am sorry for not telling you this earlier since I have been busy with a lot of things. Also, you already know that Atobe and Ryoma are romantically involved right? Those two are almost going to tie their knots together since this is the start of their so called "Royal Wedding." Continued Shiraishi.

"Yes, I am fully aware of that. This is why I asked Genichirou to take Ryoma out on a dinner date since Atobe needs you and Fuji there immediately after you close up shop. I will also be there to sort some things out with the gang as well since we need to make sure Ryoma feels happy about the people he is going out with since we are all having a close brotherly relationship with that kid because he showed all of us what tennis is about right? So, we have to make it up to him by treating him like he is in love with all of us." Stated Yukimura.

"What did you have in mind?"

"Do you have any tuxedos at your house? Because we need to show them that popularity still wins among boys." Shiraishi immediately smirked at that remark from Yukimura.

"Yes, in fact, I saved some for you and me since we need to dress nicely for our reunion occasion right?" smiled Shiraishi.

"Yup, that's just what we needed." replied Yukimura.

Back in the hotel, Atobe was watching some tennis matches on television when he heard a knock at the door. As he opened it, he could see Genichirou and Ryoma back from shopping and took the flowers from them before setting it on the table. He was hoping that something didn't happen along the way on their journey because he has to take full responsibility for the kid when they return to Tokyo later on.

"So, did you guys have fun together on your mini-date?" asked Atobe.

"We certainly did, I also had to give you this tulip and bonsai to express how grateful you have been towards me and so I hope your girlfriend would like the gift." Said Ryoma.

As Atobe took the plant from Ryoma, he was most surprised by how well it was designed and organized thanks to Shiraishi and he was proposed to thank him later at the restaurant.

"Oh, Ryoma! These are lovely, how could I ever thank you for such a lovely present? I am sure my girlfriend would love these since they will be perfect at my villa alter on. Anyway we should get going for dinner soon. I got your tuxedos ready in the closet since we all need to look professional since this is a big brothers date reunion."

Ryoma and Sanada looked at him with confused faces. "A date reunion with five 14 year old brothers? What does that mean?"

"It means that all of us are going to go out with you in the restaurant, think of it as a dinner date between grown men and a measly brat." Chuckled Atobe as he taps the rim of Ryoma's hat before leaving.

"Knock it off, will you? Stop calling me brat!" protested Ryoma.

"Come on now, pipsqueak, we all know you cannot resist us, so have fun!" smiled Genichirou as they stripped off Ryoma's jersey before cleaning him up in the bathroom and changing his clothes into something more professional. Once Ryoma looked in the mirror at his new tuxedo, he was surprised at how handsome he looked since this was his chance to impress the guys and girls tonight.

"Are you ready for this special occasion?" asked the boys.

"More than I will ever be. But you guys owe me big time afterwards!" Said Ryoma. And with that, they dashed off into the sunset towards the restaurant.

A Dinner date with all five 14 year old brothers at a restaurant? Gee, no wonder the boys have grown so attracted to that kid, now we know why they call him the ladies' man. Anyway though, how will Fuji feel when he meets Shiraishi again? Tune in next time and find out.
