Our Sweet Secret

Thrid Chapter: I'll definetley win!... I will not loose!

It was earlier than usual when the boy woke up. To both his parents surprise he had woken up early and whitout needing someone to drag him out of bed. After finishing his breakfast, with a lot of teasing from his father about getting a girlfriend, little did Nanjiro know that his son already had a girlfriend. But he would not tell anyone, it was his secret and he was obviously going to win the game since he had issued the challenge. After breakfast he had gone up to his room to get his bag and was now standing in front of his long mirror. He was standing in front looking at his reflection. He observed his handsome feautures, his chiseled nose and chin. His big golden cat-like eyes that shone with pride and defiance. The slightly tan skin and his slim yet toned body. A body that had firm muscles from the training he had done since young. Then, on those beautiful lips appeared a smirk and the boy said to himself, "Of course I'll win, Sakuno stands no chance with my charming good looks" He chuckled cockily and ran his hand over his dark green tinted hair, got his bag and left to pick up his girlfriend.

Sakuno had also woken up earlier than usual, she wanted to look her best for when her boyfriend came. Her grandmother had left already to get ready for tennis practice. She was sitting in front of her dresser with a big mirror that reflected pale smoothless skin, pink pale plump lips, and her hands moving as she braided her hair into two long tails. She did not really wear make up but as she grew older her grandmother thought she should dress up now and then, so she had bought her a makeup case that was barely used. From this case Sakuno took out a strawberry flavorued lip gloss, she applied some but not too much, just in case Ryoma did not like the flavor. As soon as she finished applying the gloss she heard the doorbell ring. She got her bag and ran down the stairs. Before she opened the door she took in a deep breath and with a smile opened the door to her boyfriend.

The couple walked hand in hand throught the park on their way to school. Sakuno would lightly squeeze Ryoma's hand every ten minutes because she was so nervous, she was not sure what to talk about. Ryoma on the other hand took great pleasure in seeing his girlfriend as she lightly blushed and chewed on her lower lip. Sakuno was so nervouse that she did not notice those golden cat like eyes linger on her lips far more than was necessary. Then suddenly the boy gave Sakuno a light yet firm squeeze that made the girl stop walking and look at the boy. "Come lets sit here" the boy answered the question on the girls eye. The girl followed the boy to a park bench and sat down, by now they were no longer holding hands and the boy was standing up rummaging in his bag looking for something. Sakuno watched quietly and as she was about to ask what he was looking for, he said "Here it is!" He bent down taking the girls thigh and bringing it up a bit. The girl blushed madly as the already short skirt rode even higher, "Ryo...Ryoma-kun what are you doing?" "Dont worry," he looked up at her bright face and gave her a smirk. "Im simply changing the band-aid on your scraped knee." He said this with such an innocent face that made Sakuno blush even more as she noticed that he had done exactly that. "Uh.. okay" she said embarrassed, looking to her left. The boy chuckled lihgtly standing up and taking the girls chin. He tilted it and the girl was now facing him, for a moment he was breathless at the beauty in front of him. Her caramel eyes were wide open, her cheeks tinted with a rosy color, her lips lightly parted as she slowly lost herself in those golden eyes. He looked at he,r then he met her lips with his . The kiss was soft and sweet, but then it grew becoming more passionate,leaving both teens slightly gasping for air. Ryoma recovered first, his forehead still connected to Sakuno as he chuckled, he moved to her ear and whispered "I'll definitely win," befor standing up. The girl's mind was still dazed from the kiss and the whisper to her ear had made her shiver but her brain began to slowly register the words said by her boyfrined and she looked up surprised to see the boy with his smirk as she frowned and stood up to follow him to school.

It was morning practise and Ryoma had gotten ten laps for arriving late. Sakuno was standing next to her grandmother watching as the boys practised. It was soon time for class to start and everyone gathered around the coach. Sakuno slightly blushed as she looked at Ryoma and without anyones notice he flashed her a smirk which only made her blush more. Then suddenly Eiji said something that Sakuno did not hear, due to her thoughts racing to some minutes ago in the park when Ryoma had..." Uhm sorry Eiji-sempai what did you say?" "I asked 'what happened to your knee?" This question only made the girl blush and she quickly anwered that she had fallen down. "But where did you get that band-aid? I though we had run out of them at home" asked Sakuno's grandmother. "Yeah also I saw you entering school with Chibi-chan," teased Eiji. Sakuno became flustered since she was not good at lying.

Ryoma inwardly smirked he could not believe his luck, he knew Sakuno would slip up and end up telling everyone that they were dating, meaning he would win. What he did not expect was Sakuno's answer. "I found Ryoma-kun at the entrance and he offered me band-aid and since we were heading the same way we just sort of walked together," answered Sakuno making it sound as if that was exactly what had happened. As if the kiss on the park had never happened. Ryoma was surprised at the girls skill in lying without stuttering or blushing which was expected by the boy. 'It seems this will be harder than I expected' the boy thought. With this answer everyone was dismissed.

As Ryoma walked out of the dressing room he saw that Sakuno was waiting for him. She was staring down so he called her name. She looked up surprised but then her caramels eyes transformed into a look of determination and she declared,"Ryoma I will not loose, " as she left leaving the boy bewildered at the girl's determination to not loose. He chuckled once again,'Yeah this will definitely be hard,' he though as he walked towards class. Not letting himself think of how hearing Sakuno say his name without honorifics had sent a billion butterflies through his stomach.
