CHAPTER 82

Ryoma sat near the window in the limo. He had been in one before. When he was in America both of Keigo's parents had taken the boy out to a top class restaurant so he could try all the different things he was left out from earlier in life. They had their own room so he could relax and enjoy himself instead of worrying what others would thing if they saw how bad his table manners were.

Keigo watched as the boy stared out the window. He was still thinking about the way Kunimitsu smiled in his sleep most likely from what him and the cat had talked about. "Brat, how do you feel when your with Mitsu?" Ryoma paused for a second before looking at Keigo. He slid down into the chair letting his shirt ride up and his hoodie push forward so it could hang over his eyes.

"I like Mitsu." He spoke quietly.

"No, I meant feel. Tell me what you feel when you're with him?" He watched as the boy just looked to the floor. "Brat, Ore-Sama won't tell him. I'm just curious." As Keigo was about to give up, Ryoma decided to finally answer.

"I feel safe." Snapping his head to the freshmen he listen. "I get this fuzzy and warm feeling, but it's not a bad thing. I like spending time with him and can't wait till I get to see him next, even if we do live together. I don't want him to get mad at me. I just want him to always be there and never leave me." Keigo continued to look at the boy even after he finished speaking.

"Brat, are you sure you don't love him?" It was then Ryoma shouted 'Never!' at the top of his lungs, while he stood up in shock at being asked such a question. There was one thing the boy had forgotten. He was in a limo, thus the roof of it wasn't exactly high. So he was now on the floor holding the top of his head from where he had hit it.

"Ow..." He moaned in pain. He heard Kei calling his name and so looked his way with tears threatening to fall from his eyes. Atobe sighed before giving the boy a smile. 'Honestly,' he thought. 'Only Ryoma could forget that we're in a car.' The cat crawled his way over and rested his head on Keigo's lap. "I don't love him. If I did, he would disappear."

Keigo resist the urge to roll his eyes. Sometimes the cat could be so dense. "So, your just going to let him go? Not even considering the fact that he loves you?" He watch as the boy's cheeks went red.

"What do you mean? He loves me?" He mumbled just loud enough for Keigo to barely hear. The captain realizing what he just said leaned back and looked at the lights on the roof, hoping the cat just dropped it and would forget he ever said that. After all he didn't mean to say it out loud. It was silent for a few minutes while Ryoma thought over what the other just said. "No." He lifted his head off Keigo's leg and look wide eyed, not believing that it could be true. "No no no no no..." Ryoma repeated over and over again shaking his head. "He's not allow. That's not fair!" He shouted.

"Damn it brat, Ore-Sama demands you calm down. Breath." Ryoma took a huge breath inwards and slowly exhaled. "There. Now speak slower and pretend Ore-Sama never told you that."

"How can I? He shouldn't. It's not allowed." Kei leaned back and rubbed his eyes. This wasn't going to end well for Mitsu. He turned his attention back to Ryoma when he felt the boy sit next to him. "He should give up. I don't want him to love me."

"Well, tough luck. People can't help who they fall in love with. It just happens." It was silent for the rest of the way and Ryoma was still having a war in his mind. Keigo had asked the driver to come back in about 2 hours to pick them up before him and Ryoma made their way to where they were meant to meet the girls. Upon their arrival Tomoko was the first to spot the prince.

"Ryoma-Sama!" She shouted as she pulled Sakuno along with her so they could stand closer to him. As they approached they started to slowly when they took note of the fact that Ryoma wasn't alone. "Ahh, Ryoma-Sama I thought it was just going to be us two and you." She pouted, letting go of the shy brunette in favour of folding her arms. They both turned to uninvited one when they heard a disapproving huff.

"Like Ore-Sama will let you have time alone with him." Tomoko glared at Keigo. "Besides Ore-Sama doesn't get to spend much time with my brat. So you two should be the ones that are uninvited." He put his arm round the boy's shoulders and pulled him closer to him. "Anyway he's here to teach you tennis not have your children."

"I would never have his babies. That's Sakuno's job!" Sakuno went bright red at what the best friend just said. Even if the loud one and her were close she didn't really want Tomoko going round talking about her secret crush.

Ryoma was not taking any notice of the conversation and he had only one thought going though his head. 'Mitsu... Kunimitsu... No I will call him Tezuka.' He slowly blinked a couple of times when he saw Tomoko in his face. Turning his head to the side he looked up at Keigo wondering what he had missed. "Umm... I wasn't paying attention. What's going on?" Keigo bent down and kissed the boy on the forehead. Once he took his lips off he sent a smirk the girls way. As if he was telling the mentally to give up on Ryoma.

Ryoma watch with confusion written across his face as steam was coming form the loud one's ears. "Ryoma-Sama is going to be having Sakuno's babies and she will be his loving wife. It will be the perfect family. Where the husband works and the mother will welcome him home everyday with a loving smile and a nice home meal." She was gritting her teeth as she spoke to him.

"Tomo-Chan..." Sakuno was red with embarrassment as her friend reviled what kind of future she wanted to have with the 16 year old teen. "I... Please don't say anymore. I just... Wa... wanted to play some tennis."

Keigo held back a wince. To Keigo it sounded so normal... It was nothing that was Ryoma. The cat was unique and had his own interests in things. The captain knew it wouldn't be fair if anyone held the boy back in doing whatever he liked after what he had been though. It almost sounded cruel to want to weigh down the boy with children of his own. Especially when Sei had told Keigo about a boy called Sam who was Ryoma's first innocent kiss, then the said boy dying in his arms during the night.

So now Ryoma who decided to just ignore the conversation the others just had was sitting on a bench with a can of ponta watching the two girls hit a tennis ball against a wall. Keigo was sitting next to him once again with a phone and texting his many fans or that's what Ryoma thought. He was actually texting Sei knowing he was the only one out of his lovers that wasn't doing much at this point in time.

He had told the other everything that had happened in the car and how the boy had reacted. Ryoma had kept watch on the two girls and he had to admit that he was impressed. They could hit the ball at least 10 times each before they missed it. It was then that Sakuno had hit it too high and hard sending it over the wall and into the bushes.

She blushed hard since she had made a mistake in front of her prince and went to go and retrieve her tennis ball. As she got closer to the bushed she pushed though them looking until she came to a fence and just inside was the object she was looking for. She bent down and pushed her racket underneath the fence trying to reach out for her ball. As she was about to get it a guy step up on the other side looked down at her.

"Oh, umm... I accidentally dropped the ball inside." It didn't take long for the guy's tennis team to stand there all looking at the girl on her knees.

"Well then. Why don't you come in here and get it." Sakuno smiled as she ran to the gate and as she was about to grab the ball one of them pushed the ball basket over causing hers to be lost with the others. The shy brunette felt shocked as she watch all the ball scatter across the floor. Her and Tomoko did spend all their allowance on getting two. One for each of them. They had even draw a picture if their prince on them. Which was a little chibi face with a cap. Since they wondered if that was what he looked like if he wasn't wearing his hood. "Oops, so sorry." You could hear the sarcasm dripping from his mouth as he apologized to Sakuno.
