SailorStar9: This is Chapter 20 of this fic. (Sighs) Guys and girls, is it too hard for you to leave a review, instead of just putting this fic up on your favorited list and story alerts?

Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny.

Chapter 20: White-Hot Tournament!


"Kamui!" Nagisa flung herself at Kamui in the lounge. "Congratulations on winning the first fight."

"Cut it out!" Kamui protested, the impact sending him into the wall. "Get offa me! Go away!"

"I can't help being happy." Nagisa beamed.

"Well, I'm not!" Kamui retorted. "I didn't get to fight for one thing… and for another, you're getting way too close!"

"You're so bashful." Nagisa teased. "But I think you'd be better off not fighting, Kamui. After all, you'd have no chance against my big brother. But I'd better get going."

"Gouki…" Kamui muttered, the screen showing Team Handsome having won their match, Nagisa hanging on his arm.


"You forgot to bring lunch?" Kamui exclaimed.

"I'm sorry." Shin chuckled. "Apparently, I got it mixed up with the sub-manager's lunch and brought that instead."

"How could you get that mixed up?" Aichi wondered, sweatdropping at the can of cat food.

"And I did my best to make it." Shin sighed.

"Now I know why he needs Misaki around." Ami joked.

"You can have this, if you'd like." Emi started.

"Emi!" Kamui turned.

"Emi, what are you doing here?" Aichi wondered.

"Mom told me to bring lunch." Emi replied.

"Thank you, Emi!" Kamui beamed. "It looks delicious." He gushed, after Emi opened the basket.

"Aichi, how are the fights going?" Emi asked.

"Perfectly." Kamui grinned.

"The final fight is up next." Aichi agreed.

"Kai and Katsuragi must be really strong." Emi mused.

"That's true." Aichi admitted.

"Way to put down your brother, Emi." Ami chuckled.

"Your brother is strong, too." Kamui cut in. "He won the first fight, no problem. Also, if you'd call me Kamui, I'd be really happy…"

"Here…" Emi handed a sandwich over.

"Thank you…" Kamui stammered. "After eating this sandwich made of love, I'll win the final fight for sure."

"Ah, young love." Ami giggled.

"Boring." Kai snorted.

"Oh come on, Toshiki." Ami chided. "Weren't we like them, once?"

"Kamui, I found you!" Nagisa sang. "Here's your beloved wife's lunch. Eat up!"

"Spoke too soon." Ami muttered, Nagisa tackling Kamui to the ground, the sandwich flying into Morikawa's mouth.

"My love-packed sandwich!" Kamui roared. "Give it back!" he demanded. "After she gave me that sandwich made with love."

"There's no need to be that angry." Nagisa soothed. "I made you lunch. It's your face, Kamui!" she revealed the character lunch box.

"No way!" Kamui took off.

"Kamui!" Nagisa took off after him. "You're so bashful!" tripping over a rock, the bento box was sent flying into Morikawa's mouth.

"Spicy!" Morikawa flailed.

"What did you put in there?" Kamui deathpanned.

"Wasabi, mustard, pepper sauce and cayenne." Nagisa replied. "Anyway, a lot of spicy stuff. You like spicy food, don't you, Kamui?"

"You were gonna let me eat that stuff?" Kamui snapped. "Let me go!" he protested, Nagisa hugging him. "Emi…" he looked at his crush. "This is…"

"Kamui's sweetheart." Emi concluded.

"That's right." Nagisa agreed. "We're gonna get married soon."

"No, we ain't! Kamui retorted. "And you ain't my sweetheart. The girl I love is…"

"Nagisa, right?" Nagisa beamed.

"Wrong!" Kamui snapped, pushing Nagisa off.

"Kamui is mine!" Nagisa declared to her love rival.

"Well, this is going to be a complicated triangle, that's for sure." Ami joked.

"It's tough being a popular man." Shin interjected.

"I'm sorry, Emi." Kamui cut in. "You shouldn't have to see that. And moreover that sandwich you made for me, that Loser-Umi ate it."

"This is revolting." Nagisa twitched "That's it, I'm calling a showdown."


After the lunch break, it was time for the final round of the regional tournament.

"I'm your opponent." Nagisa stepped forward.

"Nagisa?" Kamui blinked. "No way!"

"If I win, we're getting married, okay?" Nagisa beamed.

"She does know the age of consent is 18, right?" Ami sweatdropped.
