_______________________________musicaaaa cue-
There was that annoying beeping sound again. Why was it always seeming to invade his dreams at the most inopportune times? ‘Well,’ Ryoma thought, as his eyes opened and he shut off his alarm, ‘since this dream was just me laying in bed, it was bound to be inopportune at any time.’ He sat up rubbing his eyes lazily. He tried to get out of bed without moving too much, as Karupin was sleeping under the blankets. Standing up, he stretched and looked in the mirror. His bronze eyes hooded, his chin length hair disheveled. He ran his fingers through it, which was about as much as he did any day. ‘Thank goodness for taking showers at night.’ He thought as he pulled on his school clothes. He looked at the clock, he had just enough time for breakfast before he had to get to school. He walked into the kitchen and saw that his mother had once again prepared an American breakfast. He had been telling her for years that he really did prefer a Japanese breakfast to American breakfast, but she made it almost every morning. He sat down and ate the eggs and toast quickly so that he could brush his teeth and have time to walk to school instead of jog.
As he was walking out the door, he heard his dad yelling something about girls to him, but as usual Ryoma ignored him. He had no patience for his father, it was kinda sad but Ryoma often seemed more mature than his father did. He sighed again as he walked, shaking his head, trying to think of something else. It was a successful maneuver, because just then the thought of Eiji’s and his kiss popped into his mind. He could remember what Eiji had tasted like, the wild strawberries they had eaten. It was a very soft and delicate kiss. Eiji had said before they had parted ways last night, that it was something he wanted to happen again. Did he really mean that? What would something like that mean to their friendship? What would Momo and Kaidoh think of him if he started dating Eiji? It wasn’t something he wanted to think about.
“Hey! Echizen!” He heard from behind him. He turned and saw Momo running toward him. “ What’s up?” Momo asked as he jogged up beside Ryoma.
“Nothin.” Ryoma said, trying his best to sound casual, and hide the blush on his cheeks.
“How was your first day?” Momo asked, “I tried to find you after classes, but you really must have hauled ass out. That bad?”
“No worse than middle school I guess.”
“Wanna hang out after school today?” Momo asked, putting his arm around Ryoma.
Ryoma looked at the man, and shrugged. “Why not.” He said, with a wave of his hand and an air of nonchalance. “What else do I have to do?” He looked up at the tall man with a grin on his face. Momo looked down and caught the smile. He tightened the arm and rapt his knuckles sharply on the top of Ryoma’s green mop.
“You didn’t have me for a minute Echizen, you punk.”
They walked on in silence for a minute, which gave Ryoma time to think about how happy he was to have Momo back as a friend again. When they were in Seishun Gakuen Junior High, Momo had been his closest friend. It seemed that they were going to fall right back into the same groove they had been in before, and that made Ryoma happier than anything.. Well, anything except maybe...but he pushed that out of his head just as he felt the heat rising to his face again.
A few blocks down they saw Kaidoh turn from his street and begin walking. He appeared not to notice them. Ryoma looked toward Momo and saw that the black haired man had quite the evil look on his face. The older man began to walk forward and Ryoma tried to pull him back without much luck.
“Momo-senpai, don’t.” He said in a grunt, while being dragged from the back of the man’s shirt. Momo quickened his pace and Ryoma was forced to let go. He jogged to keep pace with Momo as the distance between them and the unsuspecting Kaidoh closed rapidly.
“What are you gonna do Senpai?” Ryoma asked.
“Shhh.”
Momo walked right up behind Kaidoh, and when he caught up, he tapped Kaidoh on the back of the head and laughed.
“What’s up Viper?” He asked casually, though slightly out of breath.
Kaidoh looked at him, then back ahead, giving the impression that he didn’t care to talk to Momo. Ryoma could see the look on Momo’s face change to that of anger in a heartbeat.
“Oi Viper, I’m talkin to you!” He said.
“Shut up.” Kaidoh said.
“Did you just say shut up?” Momo asked incredulously, “You must really want a beating.”
Kaidoh stopped, knowing after all these years that this was a challenge. He turned, his black eyes burning into Momo’s violet ones.
“Ok, you wanna go? Let’s go then.” He said, putting his bag on the ground with a thump. Momo did the same “That’s what I wanted alright.”
Ryoma could sense trouble coming in a big way. Momo may have the fighter’s spirit, but Kaidoh was way more beefed up, and Ryoma was pretty sure Kaidoh would win. He knew he probably shouldn’t just stand there and watch, but it would be pretty interesting to see how this would end. He checked his watch, and was horrified to see they had about six minutes to get to school.
“Momo-senpai! Kaidoh-senpai!” He said loudly.
“Not now Echizen!” They both yelled, each holding the other by the front of their shirts.
“Alright, but you have about five minutes before start bell.” Ryoma said.
The look that came over their faces was almost comical. They released each other and scooped up their bags. They left Ryoma in a cloud of dust as they took off for the school, which was still three blocks away. Ryoma began to run as well, his bag bouncing off his back. As he ran he decided that he would no longer walk with Momo to school.
******
Ryoma sat at his desk, day dreaming again. He had gotten to school just before the bell and had hauled ass to his classroom, getting in his seat as the bell was ringing. That had been two hours ago, and after that excitement, the sensei’s voice had once again lulled him into a waking slumber. ‘Japanese History. Yay’ he thought, bored. He could feel his brain wanting to think of a certain redhead and he continued to force the thought from his mind.
When the bell finally rang for lunch period, Ryoma walked out of his classroom, resisting the urge to trip the once again loudly talking Horio.
“Ochibi?” Before mentioned redhead whispered into his ear. Again Ryoma had to swallow his own heart after it jumped into his throat at the shock of someone being that close without him noticing. When he was sure it was still beating he turned toward the voice.
“Kikumaru-senpai.” He said nodding. Eiji grabbed the green haired guy’s upper arm gently, and let it slide down until he was holding Ryoma’s hand. Ryoma was glad that, because of the way they were standing, nobody could see it.
“Why are you being so formal with me today?” Eiji asked him quietly, his voice almost a purr. “Are you avoiding me? I didn’t see you at all before school.”
“No Senpai, I was nearly late to school.” Ryoma said.
“Well lets go get some...”
Before he could finish his sentence, he was pushed aside by a yet again overly enthusiastic Momo, who grabbed both Eiji and Ryoma by the arm, dragging them behind him.
“Lunch!” He yelled.
He only let them go when they were once again in Eiji’s classroom, lunches in hand. They sat down in the quiet classroom, and were about to eat when they heard Kaidoh from the doorway.
“Fshhhuuu.” He said, entering the room. He walked over and slammed his lunch on the table.
“Momo you JERK!” he said. “I told you to wait for me.”
Momo looked at Ryoma and winked, then he turned his attention back to Kaidoh.
“I forgot.”
“I told you right before the bell!!” Kaidoh said.
“Get out of my FACE Viper!”
“Fshhhuuu!”
“Let’s go right now!” Momo said standing up.
Ryoma felt a sense of deja-vu and he leaned over toward Eiji.
“Do they do this..”
“Everyday? Yeah, one gets used to it.” Eiji said laughing. Then he jumped up and got between the two fighting men and ordered them to sit and eat. Ryoma chuckled. Momo and Kaidoh were so much alike, they really should just be friends. He was brought out of this thought by the look that Eiji was giving him.
“Wanna meet after classes again?” The older man asked, a coy smile on his lips.
“Sorry, I can’t, I’m doing something with Momo-senpai already.”
Eiji looked crestfallen, but nodded. “I get you tomorrow night then!”
“Maybe you could meet me after?” Ryoma suggested, not really knowing why he was saying it. “Momo-senpai and I will probably just go for burgers.”
“Sugoi! Call my cell!” Eiji said, pulling out a pen and paper, and writing down the number. Handing it to Ryoma, he smiled.
“You better call, even if its late and you just called to say goodnight.” He said, and winked.
Ryoma felt a knot in his stomach seeing Eiji wink at him. They ate their lunches in relative silence now, but for the sounds of mumbles and angry hisses from Momo and Kaidoh.
The bell rang, signaling the end of lunch and Ryoma started the walk across the school to his classroom. When he got to the room, he saw that there was someone already in the seat he usually sat in. He rolled his eyes and looked around. The only open place was...’Oh no ’ he thought. He walked over slowly and set his bag down.
“Echizen?” Horio said questioningly. The brunette looked around as if to say ‘Ha-ha, he is sitting by me cause we are such good buddies.’
“Yeah, only open place.”
“What’s up Echizen?” Horio asked, excitedly, as if he and Ryoma were the best of pals. Ryoma looked at him, blank expression on his face. He remained quiet. ‘Apparently he has gotten a little bit smarter anyways,’ Ryoma thought as Horio, seeming to get the hint, turned in his seat and began talking to someone else. The sensei walked in then and English class began.
******
Ryoma found Momo easily in the hallway, seeing as how he was taller than almost everyone. He walked toward where Momo was standing, talking to a group of people that appeared to be laughing at something he had just said. When Momo saw him coming, he smiled happily, said something to the group and began walking toward Ryoma.
“Ready to go get some burgers?” He asked when they got together.
“You know it Senpai.” Ryoma said as they began walking through the crowd. “I bet I can out eat you now.”
Momo looked down at him with a chuckle. “Yeah right Echizen, you are on.” He said.
They made their way to the same burger joint that they had eaten in constantly a few years before. They ordered an unsettling amount of food and took it to a booth. They both unwrapped a burger, and with a look at each other began to dig in. As they ate, they engaged in small talk about the high school tennis club, and Ryoma’s classes, and of course Momo talked about how much of a jerk Kaidoh was. Ryoma was incredibly comfortable talking to Momo again. In fact, if it wasn’t for the pain in his stomach after eating his eighth burger, he would have been wonderful. He looked at Momo, who showed no signs of stopping anytime soon. Ryoma felt he would have to concede soon if he didn’t want to have Eiji roll him around.
“Senpai..” He said, dropping the half eaten sandwich onto the table. “You win.”
Momo finished the burger he was eating, then picked up Ryoma’s half eaten one and finished it as well. He raised his arms in the air and cheered loudly. “Still un-defeated!” He said laughing. Ryoma laughed as well as he watched Momo finish his and Ryoma’s french fries, and top it off by chugging his soda. He then belched loudly and looked to Ryoma contentedly.
“Dessert?” He asked. The serious look on his face made Ryoma laugh all over again.
“That’s alright Senpai.” He said. They both laughed and Ryoma was struck again at how familiar this all was. Then he looked at the clock and saw that it was already past five. He told Momo that he had to get going. Momo stood up and stretched, rubbing his stomach.
“Thanks for the memories.” He said warmly, and they walked out into the sun. Ryoma pretended to have forgotten something, told Momo to just go ahead and go without him, and he darted back into the building, going straight for the payphone. He called Eiji’s cell, not needing to look at the paper, the number he already had memorized. Eiji answered on the second ring, and told Ryoma to meet him at the school. They hung up and Ryoma once again left the burger place and started back toward the school. When he got there, he saw Eiji, dressed in a Seigaku shirt with a snow cap over his red hair. Ryoma smiled when he saw him. There was always something he had liked about Eiji in a snow cap. He found it very....cute.
“Isn’t it a bit warm for a snow cap?” Ryoma asked as he walked up.
“Never too warm to be this fashionable.” Eiji said giggling. “What would you like to do?” He asked then.
Ryoma hadn’t thought about it, but he realized that he was the one who had made the arrangements to meet today. “Erm, well...” He said. That made Eiji laugh and he grabbed Ryoma by the hand and brought him a bit closer.
“You are pretty cute when you are confused.” He said. Ryoma blushed hotly. Eiji touched the flushed cheeks with the tips of his fingers. The gesture made Ryoma blush even more. He looked into the deep blue eyes staring into his bronze ones, and found he could not look away. He felt Eiji’s hand caressing the back of his neck, twirling fingers around the loose strands of hair there, and Ryoma felt a chill run up his spine. He was turning to putty in the hands of his senpai. Eiji leaned forward and placed a very soft, and oh too quick kiss on his lips. Ryoma moved forward as Eiji backed away, begging for more. Eiji let go of him and giggled again. He turned around and started walking, leaving Ryoma standing there stunned.
Pulling himself together, he followed Eiji as the redhead walked along the path in front of their school. Eiji turned and looked at him, he stuck out his tongue, a tongue that Ryoma desperately wanted to taste, and stepped through a hedge, disappearing from view. Ryoma went to the place where Eiji had gone through, and found a small opening, which he was about to step through, when an arm reached through the leaves and pulled him in by the front of his shirt. He was pulled directly into Eiji’s arms, and almost instantly he felt Eiji’s lips pressing against his own needily. He kissed back, a sigh escaping his lips. Eiji flicked his tongue out, and Ryoma could feel it tasting his lips. He opened his mouth and let Eiji come in to explore. He used his own tongue to taste the other man’s. Eiji tasted sweet, like he had been eating candy, and Ryoma found he couldn’t get enough of the taste. He felt hands again at the back of his neck and he wrapped his own around Eiji’s waist. The redhead broke the kiss and moved down, licking Ryoma’s neck, playfully flicking it with the tip of his warm tongue. Ryoma let his hands wander a little, bringing them to rest on Eiji’s ass. He squeezed gently, bringing a slight moan from the older man. The feeling of the warm breath against his neck made Ryoma crazy. He suddenly wanted to touch every inch of Eiji’s body, right then, or he would surely lose his mind. He felt that Eiji had stopped moving and he pulled back a little. Looking at the lustful look he was getting from his senpai turned Ryoma on even more.
“I want you to belong to me.” Eiji whispered. Ryoma’s brow furrowed for a second.
“What...” He began, but Eiji over took his mouth, filling it with his tongue. When the kiss broke, Eiji’s hand had moved to the waistband of Ryoma’s pants, where he hooked his fingers.
“Belong to me, be my boyfriend.” He said again, his lips less than an inch away from Ryoma’s. The green haired man’s mind was spinning. He wanted nothing more than to belong to Eiji. He could barely stand the few seconds that their lips weren’t pressed together.
“Okay,” He panted. “I will belong to you.”
Eiji slid his hand down the front of Ryoma’s pants, rubbing slightly on the erection there. Ryoma moaned gently and Eiji kissed him again. Ryoma felt the hand leave his pants, and he was slightly disappointed. ‘Although’ he thought, ‘Was I expecting something else to happen, we are in a bush.
“Good.” Eiji said, the kiss breaking again. “That makes me happy, Ryoma.”
Ryoma’s hardness twitched at the sound of his first name coming from his boyfriend’s lips.
“Tell me again.” Eiji urged seductively.
“I belong to you Senpai.” Ryoma whispered without hesitation.
“Eiji, call me Eiji.”
“I belong to you Eiji.” He said, liking the name coming from his own lips.
Eiji rewarded him with another passion filled kiss. Ryoma couldn’t stand the pain of parting. He let out a little whimper as Eiji pulled away.
“It’s time for me to go home now.” EIji said. “Goodbye Ryoma, I will see you tomorrow.”
Ryoma said goodbye, feeling very depressed. Eiji stepped back through the hedge. Ryoma stood there for a minute, trying to compose himself, and waiting for his erection to subside a little. About five minutes later, he also stepped through the hedge. He saw his bag laying on the ground. He hadn’t remembered putting it there, he hadn’t even really remembered carrying it at all. He threw it over his shoulder and walked home. He knew his face was still flushed, as he couldn’t think of anything but the sweet tasting kisses. As he walked, he wondered what he had gotten himself into.
