Chapter 10

(Later at their apartment that Hino and Kei shared)

"So how did you like everyone today Kei" asks Hino as she watches Kei sit on the couch in their living room for the kitchen sink.

" It was amazing I never thought I would meet them again and that Kagami kid is just like us" says Kei as he holds up his fist and his eyes blazing.

Hino laughed out at her older brother behavior.

"Hey Hino" asks Kei as he looks towards her.

"Yeah what" questions Hino as she looks back to him with a raised eyebrow.

"What was with that behavior later today at the café we were at "asks Kei as he leans back on the couch.

"Oh that was just something I was wanting to try nothing big" says Hino as she remembered that she was super hyper in the café.

"Well ok, but what about your little boy crush" asks Kei as he closes his eyes and slowly counts in his head. 1,2,3,4,5...

"WHAT ! " screams out Hino as her face goes red and her face burns in embarrassment.

"Don't try to hide it sister I'm not that stupid" says Kei.

"I have no idea what you mean just shut up" says Hino as she starts to scrub the dirty dishes even harder to the point where it made a loud squeaky noise.

"Come on sister, you know AKASHI" says Kei as he opens one eye to see how she reacts to his name.

"Akashi" says Hino as she looks down at the plates face still lit up blood-red. Her eyes grow twice their normal size which is saying something. Her red color on her face triples to where now her neck is starting to become red as well. Kei smirks.

" I...I-I have to go and...sleep" shrieks out Hino as she drops the dishes in the sink and takes off up stairs literally leaving a fire trail in her wake.

Kei couldn't stop the laughs the bellow out of his stomach. He even falls off the couch but that doesn't stop the laughing.

"Told you" he says in a sing-song voice up the stairs and he is still laughing when he turns on the TV.

Meanwhile Hino was running up the stairs like her life depended on it which in this case it kind of did...for her at least. She ran straight to her room where she locked the door breathing heavily. What was that idiot thinking asks Hino out loud to herself. Even though she kinda did like Akashi a little but she figured that was normal since he used to be their captain.

Akashi she thought and once again went red-faced. She looked around her room. Which was the second biggest room in their apartment building. In the fair left corner of her room was a giant bed made of teal sheets and giant pillows. With giant lions on the end of the bed. (lions are her favorite animal) And she had a giant plush throw rug (teal) in the middle of her room in front of her bed. And across the room was her TV and game consoles. Then she had her computer desk at the end of the bed. And her closet which was located at the bottom right of her room. And then she had a personal bathroom which she painted green herself. But her room was entirely Teal and white covered in Lions. She had posters of basketball stars and Lions and her fav. anime. Not to mention all her anime books and movies that was just sitting under her desk next to her bed.

She looked down to her phone as she plopped on the bed and stared at the ceiling. What Kei and the others didn't know was that Akashi had given her His and the other GoM phone numbers. He even went out of his way to tell her about the up coming tournament, the Winter Cup. He had told her that her team could enter the tournament if they wanted to and that the other GoM and their teams were going to enter as well. All she had to do was bring it up at the next team meeting which was tomorrow. Hino started to close her eyes thinking about winning the winter cup and maybe...Akashi. ;)
