Hey everyone. So update was incredible slow. In all truth I had to buy a new laptop. My old one decided it didn't want to connect to the internet any more. It had been getting worse for the past month, but I think it decided to finally give up. (R.I.P). And sorry if this chapter is weird or anything. Wrote it as soon as I set up my new laptop LOL.
On with the story.
JelloBear - the sixsome will be sometime after the Hyotei VS Seigaku match and Ryoma may blurt out the dream he had if he gets questioned.
KaSaHa - Yeah, Syu was rather quiet in the last chapter. I would just say it was a mix of being tired and in pain that made him like that.
CHAPTER 147
"The ranking matches." Ryoma asked as he sat on Mitsu's stomach on the bed looking down at him. "But why now?"
"Actually if you had been listening instead of drinking ponta you would of heard me talk about it in a club meeting." Tezuka started doing small circles on the cat's thighs as he looked into golden eyes.
"Oh, that reminds me. Why am I naked?" The Seigaku captain smirked as he watched Ryoma's tail flicker left and right in a quick movement.
"So have you already forgotten about last night? Kei seems to be happy about what happened." The cat blushed a dark red as he looked down. "So do you want to go to normal classes today. We'll let both Sei and Syu sleep in, seeing as Syu needs to be alright by this evenings matches." Shifting on the other stomach, Ryoma pushed himself off and went to get changed for the school day.
Everyone stared as Ryoma entered the classroom. "Ah, Ryoma. Are you joining us today?" Nodding, the teacher smiled kindly at him before telling him to take a seat.
As lessons started, the cat stared out the window. He was only snapped out of his daze when he heard a call of 'Echizen'. Looking up he found Horio standing only a couple of inches away. Leaning back in his chair Ryoma looked to the loud one in wonder.
"Is something going on?" He asked as he noticed that other students were getting up from their desks and getting into groups. Horio sighed as he place his hands on the boys desk.
"Don't tell me you weren't listening. We have a five-minute break in between lessons." The loud one shook his head in disappoint meant. "Honestly Echizen. You should be glade that you have me here otherwise you would of just continued to daydream." Without being able to get a word in edge way the monkey walked away.
"Ryo... Ryoma, a...are you okay?" The cat looked to his left to see Sakuno blushing as she sat down next to him. "If y...you need to talk, I... I'm here to lis...listen." Tilting his head, Ryoma thought about his offer and finally asked.
"If you knew someone was very sick and had a small chance of surviving, but you loved them more than anything in the world. Would you stay by them or distance yourself?" Sakuno looked at the boy with a sad smile.
'He's probably talking about Yukimura. Does that mean he loves him?' She was snapped out of her thought when she noticed Ryoma staring at her waiting for a reply. "I... I think you should stay close. But... if... if you really fear th... this illness the other has may... maybe you should ask him to ex...explain more about it." Looking down to her lap in embarrassment she glanced up through her fringe and blushed ever darker when she notice the soft smile on the boys lips.
"Yeah, I'll do that. Thank you Sakuno." Just as the shy girl was about to tell him it was alright they heard a noise from the door of their classroom.
"Kawaii!" Tomoko stood at the door looking at the two. "Sakuno are you and Ryoma-Sama finally dating." As the whole class went silent, Horio being his loud self replied.
"Ah! Echizen would never date Sakuno. He's with Tezuka-Senpai. He even kissed him in front of the whole tennis team that time. You even saw." Huffing, Horio folded his arms and pushed his chest out showing how right he is. He may not be happy that Ryoma was dating someone who wasn't him, but he knew that if he made it clear that the cat liked men then it made the female population of the school hopefully back off.
"Yeah, but Ryoma-Sama only kissed him because he was so glad to get permission to play against Fuji-Senpai. Anyway how can two guys be together. Especially Ryoma-Sama and Tezuka-Senpai. It's not right." The two were now standing inches from each other wanting to get the other to back off.
"You say that does that mean you're against Fuji-Senpai and Yukimura being together?" Thinking he had won, Horio smirked in victory.
"Those two are just weird. Ryoma-Sama would never do something like that. He is not gay. He is destined to be with Sakuno whether you like it or not. I bet you're just starting a fight because you secretly love Ryoma-Sama." Ryoma shoulders hunched up in defence as he got up and was about to leave the classroom hoping to avoid the situation. "Hey, Ryoma-Sama you can't just leave." Not answering, the cat made his way to the principals office.
"Ah, Ryoma. Are you alright? It's a bit earlier for you to come here and sleep." The cat stood in front of the desk looking the older man right in the eye.
"Is it bad for a man to love another man?" Frowning the principal stood up from his chair and told Ryoma to take a seat next to him on the sofa.
"So what brought this about? You've never question it before now?" The boy unclipped his hood and pulled it down reviling his ears.
"A while back Gen told me that even though people say they don't care what they look like they will alway try to hide behind a mask pretending to be someone else. Is that why Gen, Kei and Mitsu have a problem with telling others that they like men, because they think they'll be judge for loving someone of the same gender and why none of them will tell others that we're in a relationship all together unless it accidentally gets reviled or they trust that person and why do I find it so hard just to show people who I am not what they think I am. I'm not as innocent as people make me. I've done bad things. I've hurt and... I've killed and I'm so scared that if people find out that I have done that, that they will lock me up or take me back to that place. I don't like hiding. I don't like others hiding."
Noticing that Ryoma was starting to breathe more heavily, Tanaka rubbed the boy's back hoping he wouldn't have a panic attack. "Ryoma you should know that the world is cruel. People lie and cheat and will look down on others without any explanation. Whether or not you like men or are in a relationship with more than one should only matter to the people involved in that said relationship.
Everybody in life have their own wars to fight. No one is perfect. No one is straight or gay. In the end you fall in love with the person not what gender they are. You may have a preference to what sex you go for, but when it comes to loving them you should look at them for what they are not who you want the to be. If you want to change anything about someone you think you love one then it's not love. Ryoma, you, more than anyone should know that to be accepted as you are is the only thing that should matter. They probably already know what happened to you and what you've done, yet they haven't once pushed you away or told you that you are unworthy of love. Society may not welcome you, but the ones that matter to you do. That's all you should care about. Well... that's my opinion. Others will have different ones depending on their beliefs."
He smiled as he watched Ryoma's whole body relax. "I'll go find Tezuka and ask him to come in here for an hour or so." Getting up, Tanaka went to the door reminding himself to also go grabbed a can of ponta for the boy to drink later.
Mitsu felt lips moving against his. 'When did I close my eyes? Is that Syu?' Replying to the advance, the captain opened his mouth letting the other slip his tongue in. Groaning in pleasure when he felt his bottom lip being taken in-between that other, Mitsu couldn't help but let his eyebrow twitch in annoyance when he felt Syu snickering through his nose.
Opening his eyes he met with bright blue. Slowly taking his lips away from Syu's he leaned his forehead against the others. "Is there something that you find amusing?" Instead of getting a reply Mitsu felt the tensai's hand on his chin before it got directed to the direction of the door. "I hate you." He whispered as he saw the faces of his team mates. They were ranging from interest on new information to going red in embarrassment. For instance Oishi and Kawamura were looking to the floor with embarrassment. Inui was writing in his book and Eiji looked like he was about to burst as the seems with happiness.
"Anyway..." Mitsu muttered as he directed his attention back to his lover. "You seem to be happy and no longer in pain." The captain held back the urge to lean into Syu's hand as his cheek was caressed.
"I took painkillers and Sei helped me with the cream. Also I still have a cute image of Ryo-Chan last night fast asleep sitting on the toilet lid after he had his first hand job." He whispered before he looked to the cat who was using Mitsu's lap as a pillow.
Eiji slowly walked over standing next to the tensai. "Aww, can I hold him. Nya." His excitement causing Ryoma to sit up straight in fear. "Aww, Ochibi woke up. Shame." Looking around and seeing he was with friends, Ryoma yawned and shook his head letting the hair on his head fluff out slightly.
"Syu, you're here." The cat stated as he rubbed his eyes on Mitsu's shoulder. "You look better. Are you going to try being entered by two people again?" All the regulars except Mitsu looked to the tensai in surprise or in Inui's case interest.
"Wah, Fujiko is that true? Two at once, nya. Did it feel weird? How did they both fit? It must have been painful, nya." Syu instead of feeling embarrassed at Ryoma and Eiji's questions, he took it all in stride and smile. He was happy that Eiji was his best friend. After all the red-head never felt embarrassed talking about Syu's weird ways in front of him, but still held that fear that the sadist could possible do something that would be inappropriate. Like right now at this moment for example.
"Saa... It was very enjoyable only after did I really feel the pain. Gen was much bigger than I expected. He defiantly has the biggest one out of all of us. Hmm... Kei's hips know how to move at just the right angle as he thrusts..." Eiji not expecting such a detailed reply covered his ear along with some of the other regulars as he shouted for the tensai to stop. "What's wrong Eijiko I thought you wanted information?" Syu just smiled innocently.
"Nya! You know what I meant. I didn't want to know sizes or anything like that."
