Ellen Kimihiro laid in her bed, thinking. The digital clock on her nightstand read 2:37 am. She just couldn't get any sleep at all. Her mind kept going back to the raven haired 'gorilla'. She wasn't upset, really. Just confused. At first she was pretty sure she didn't like him at all. But now, she wasn't very sure if she felt her hatred towards him as strongly as she thought she did.

"Your son is a nice person too. He just doesn't know how to show it." She remembered her words to Sanada's mother. Why did I even say that? Sure she wouldn't want his mother to think her son was a bad person. But she could've simply kept her mouth shut. Not like I was lying. He's pretty nice. A bit rough. His abs… Horrified by her own thoughts she hid under her blankets. She peeked out and got back to thinking about him. Again.

Now that I think about it, he was being really weird the past few days. Which wasn't an exaggeration. Sanada wouldn't talk to her, yet he would steal glances at her. And when he got caught he would turn red and look away.

Sanada was acting rather strange around her ever since his 'confrontation' with his teammates. Even if their accusation wasn't true he just couldn't bring himself to argue talk with her the way he always did. Ellen, however, was not aware of this. Which is why she lay in her bed, wondering about the handsome, er gorilla. She thought she wouldn't be able to get any sleep because of that damned gorilla. But somewhere between admiring and cursing him, she fell asleep. A tanned rough figure filling her dreams.

"Sanada-san," Ellen laughed lightly. Ellen? Her laughter sounded like little silver bells. So sweet. But why was he calling her by her first name? He was sure they weren't that close. She caressed his face. Her touch, sinfully soft. Before she could go away from him, he grabbed her hand and pulled her onto his lap. "You're not going anywhere." He brushed a few strands of raven hair away from her face and bent his head down. Eyes focusing on her soft pink lips. "Mmmm" Ellen moaned lightly as his mouth came in contact with hers. But before he could do anything else Ellen hit him in the head…

He jolted up from his sleep. He was in the library with Akaya in his arms. The poor boy had pulled a book over his mouth to keep his senpai from violating him. With his free hand he had managed to land a blow on the upperclassman's head that woke him up. Sanada immediately let go of the second year ace.

"What the hell fukubuchou!" Akaya yelled. He had forgotten that they were in a library what with his innocence at stake and had received a warning glare from the librarian. He became quiet for a while before whisper-yelling "What is wrong with you! What sort of perverted dreams were you having about innocent Kimi senpai?!" Sanada didn't say a word. In all honesty, the fukubuchou had lost his voice. He seemed very red in the face and refused to look at his kohai.

Akaya had come to the library looking for him because Yukimura had told him to. But he was NOT AT ALL prepared for what actually happened. He felt weak from fear. Of being almost severely violated. The poor ace had even begun to think that getting slapped by his fukubuchou was better than getting kissed by him. Still shocked from the traumatic incident, Akaya delivered his message and nearly flew out of the library.

Akaya looked shaken when he entered the cafeteria and sat with his team. Yukimura and the others had immediately taken notice of it. "Oi, brat" Niou called. "What's wrong Kirihara?" Yukimura gently shook his shoulder. Akaya hid his face with his hands. "Senpai almost violated meee!" was his muffled reply. Everybody gave each other a confused look. "What was that?" Niou asked. Akaya removed his hands from his face and began, "Fukubuchou almo-" but was cut off when a large hand clamped over his mouth. Looking up he saw the person he did NOT want to see right now. Sanada Genichirou. He gave the boy a 'Tell-them-and-I-will-violate-you' look, or that's what Akaya thought. On Sanada's part though, it was just a stern glare.

The team watched this strange exchange between the ace and the fukubuchou. Finally when Sanada had removed his hand from Akaya's mouth, the boy had jumped out of his seat and rushed out of the cafeteria. Confusing the other team members even more.

Yukimura raised his eyebrows at his friend questioningly. "It's nothing." He said gruffly before leaving the cafeteria as well. After being silent for a while the others went back to their meals. Yukimura kept thinking of the scene from a while ago. They're definitely hiding something.

Sanada spent the rest of the day feeling very uncomfortable. He avoided Kimihiro like the plague. And in class, her seat being next to his did not help. He kept looking everywhere except at Kimihiro. Just sitting beside her made him think of the dream. That sweet dream.

As soon as classes were over for the day, he almost ran out of his class and towards the courts without so much as sparing anyone a glance. I just can't look at her. What if she finds out about the dream if I look at her? Oh my god.

She didn't know anything. And looking at her probably wouldn't hint anything at all. But Sanada's mind was in overdrive. The fukubuchou of the Rikkai Dai tennis team was panicking. He was flustered. THAT. NEVER. HAPPENED.

He more or less ran to the courts. He knew Kimihiro would probably get pissed off by his actions. But he chose to live. Because if she got to know any of this, he'd probably turn up dead. He could almost see it. Headlines: Dashing tennis fukubuchou found dead from girl getting to know about his perverted dreams.

I can't think of these things right now. I have the district prelims coming up. I shouldn't get distracted. He tried to reason with his reeling mind. I'll think about it after the tournament. With this thought in mind, he reached the courts to put all of his concentration into playing and winning.

But when he finally reached the courts, he suddenly had a very odd feeling in his gut. Yukimura was standing by the courts waiting for him. The smile on his face, when the captain had spotted his target, screamed danger. What is it now?
