___________________________musicaaaaaaaa cue!
Momoshiro Takeshi hit the snooze button for the third time. His head was pounding already and he wasn’t ready to face the day. His left eye wouldn’t open, and every time he tried, it made his stomach turn. His mother had called up the stairs so many times that Momo had lost count. Finally she knocked on the door.
“Are you awake?” She called.
“Yes, but I have a horrible headache.” He called back with a groan.
“Do you want to stay home today?” She asked. Momo thought about this offer for a minute. It did have it’s advantages. He was about to yell back that it seemed like the perfect idea when he remembered that he had a history test today, and if he missed it, his grade would suffer.
“No, I need to get up and get ready.” He said with reluctance. He heard his mother walk back down the stairs and he rolled out of his waterbed. He stood up, trying to ignore the nausea that threatened his stomach and head. He was almost positive he didn’t want to look into the mirror and see the way his face looked, however he went into the bathroom to get in the shower and he caught his reflection and it stopped him in his tracks. He turned and looked into the mirror full on. What he saw there made him want to crawl back in bed, test be damned. He looked like he had gotten hit by a car. His left eye was swollen shut completely and it was black, blue and purple. His bottom lip was also swollen, and there was a cut above his right eye. He could feel that his front three teeth on the top were loose. He undressed and turned on the water. Climbing into the shower, he tried to keep his face from the hot water. As he washed his body, his ribs hurt as well. He used the washcloth to gingerly tap his face with soapy water. When he got out of the shower, after he had gotten dressed and grabbed his school bag, he walked downstairs and was slightly annoyed by the small gasp from his mother.
“I know how bad it looks mother, you don’t have to gasp at me.” He said angrily.
“Don’t snap at me Takeshi, it isn’t my fault this happened to you.”
“Sorry, but I just hate how you stare at me like that.”
“Well you look like you stepped out in front of a bus.”
“I know.”
Twenty minutes later, he walked out of his house and started down the sidewalk toward the school. He walked quickly, just wanting to get to school. Up ahead he saw the familiar green mop of hair that indicated Ryoma. He wanted to catch up to the freshman, but he didn’t want to see yet another shocked face. He decided that since everyone was going to see him at school, and Ryoma was bound to say something so he might as well just get it over with. As he walked up beside Ryoma, he watched the face of greeting turn into the face of shock, and then into the normal Ryoma face of indifference.
“Hey Momo-senpai.” He said, looking directly into Momo’s eye, and not scanning the cuts and bruises. Momo was slightly shocked himself at the lack of credit he gave the kouhai. He should have known that Ryoma wouldn’t make a big deal out of it. Actually it was more like Ryoma just to ignore it.
“It was Akutsu.” Momo said, and Ryoma nodded, that seemed all that needed to be said, so that was all that was said. Ryoma just turned and continued to walk. This helped the older teen with his anticipation of having to see all the people at the school. They passed the same familiar alley which Momo and Kaidoh had been known to frequent, and Kaidoh himself turned out of it, bag over his shoulder. Momo saw Ryoma look up at him, but he didn’t say anything. Kaidoh joined the pair walking to school, but he also didn’t say anything. The three of them walked in silence for the first time ever. Momo was grateful for his lover’s discretion as well, not making the usual jabs at him. They turned the corner into the schoolyard and Momo hung his head slightly. Kaidoh looked at him, knowing he couldn’t see him looking, as he was on Momo’s left side. In his head was turmoil. On one hand, he was really starting to have strong feelings for Momo, but on the other hand, he had always had strong feelings for watching Momo suffer. He reached out a hand and quickly but gently patted his boyfriend on the back. Momo seemed to energize a little from the touch and he lifted his head, and they walked into the school.

“Would you lay still?” The redhead asked, frustrated, and tried to gently push the bigger man down on the bed.
“No, I have been telling you that I am fine, so leave me the fuck alone.”
“Maybe I just like having you in my bed Jin.” Sengoku Kiyosumi said, flashing a trade mark grin at his lover, who used his trademark scoff in return.
“Well, if I am gonna be in your bed, at least I should be able to get some.” Akutsu Jin replied, a small smirk playing across his lips.
“Well, you know I would but I think you have some broken ribs.” Sengoku told him. “And that means you are in no condition to be rough housing.” He finished his sentence with a giggle behind his hand and got up from the side of the bed, allowing the golden eyed man to sit up. As the redhead left the bedside, Jin reached his arm out and grabbed his wrist. Sengoku turned back and shook his head.
“You just aren’t going to give up until you have had your way are you?” He said, although his voice sounded disapproving, his eyes were lit with excitement.
“I think you should know me well enough by now Kiyosumi, we have been dating for almost a year now.” As he said this, Jin pulled the other man back to him, and forced him back down on the bed. Although forced wouldn’t be the correct word to use as the redhead came quite willingly.
“You are gonna make it worse Jin...” He started, but was cut off by the lips that pressed against his own. These lips, that usually spewed forth so much verbal abuse were gentle now, with Sengoku. That is one thing that he loved about Jin. He may act like the tough guy, but he was a very gentle person under the shell. Not that anyone, save Taichi or Sengoku himself, had seen this other Jin. It was something rare, but beautiful. Hands snaked up the back of Sengoku’s shirt now, and he moved forward, straddling Jin’s legs and pressing himself against his lover. Jin wrapped both of his arms tightly around the redhead’s thin waist, pulling him close, and deepening the kiss. Sengoku pulled back, a sigh escaping him. Jin lay slowly back, pulling the other teen down on top of him. He immediately began to rhythmically grind his hips up against the man laying on top of him. Sengoku smiled and kissed Jin’s lips again, slowly moving his hips down allowing for the sensations of growing erections rubbing together through clothing. Sengoku heard a quiet growl coming from Jin’s throat. Having been together for so long, the redhead knew that this was his lover’s way of praising him. Jin didn’t do anything as gentle as moan, but it was his growl that said everything. Just another little “Jin quirk” that Sengoku couldn’t live without. He wiggled himself out of Jin’s arms and started to slowly slide down, trying to be gentle of his lover’s sore body. He glanced up and smiled at the look on the other teen’s face, the way he was begging him without saying a word. Sengoku Kiyosumi obliged.

The minutes ticked by. Momoshiro Takeshi put his head on his desk. The test had been over for 15 minutes now, and Momo’s stomach ached as he waited for the sensei to release them for lunch. His morning hadn’t been as bad as he expected. Besides the couple of people asking if he had finally pushed Kaidoh too far, there had only been a scattering of odd looks and comments.
“Put your pencils down and you are excused for lunch.” Momo heard finally. He jumped up and ran from the classroom, brushing past everyone in his way. He saw his friends walking hand in hand down the hallway.
“Fshhhuuu.” He heard from behind, and he knew he should wait for Kaidoh, seeing as how that was a ‘wait for me’ hiss and not a ‘I am going to be patient because Momo is starving’ hiss, but he continued toward Eiji and Ryoma. Because he had one eye shut, his equilibrium didn’t bring it’s ‘A’ game, and he started to stumble. Just as he was thinking up a cool way to explain why he landed face first on the linoleum, he felt some very strong arms go around his waist and stop him from falling. He was pulled upward and his back pressed against a hard chest.
“Stop being an idiot and slow down.” Kaidoh whispered in his ear, despite the fact that Kaidoh was calling him an idiot, Momo felt heat spread throughout his body from his lover’s touch.
“How did you catch up to me?” Momo asked, aware that Kaidoh hadn’t let him go.
“Hey stupid, I’m the one who runs everywhere, did you think I couldn’t catch up with you?”
Momo thought this over for a second, realizing that Kaidoh had a very strong point. He also became aware that people were beginning to look at them because they were in a rather compromising position.
“Umm, Viper...” Momo said quietly. “You may want to let me go now.”
He felt the arms around him loosen, and he was slightly sad to feel them go. He looked up and Eiji and Ryoma were standing in front of them, Ryoma was looking at Momo, eyebrows lost in the green bangs hanging in his face, and Eiji was standing one hand on his hip, the other stifling a giggle. Kaidoh cleared his throat and pushed past the three of them and walked toward the lunch room. Momo cleared his head, and followed.
The rest of the school day passed much as it always did.
After classes, Momo walked out into the sunshine and began his walk home. Normally he would stop for something to eat before heading home, but today he was feeling rather sick so he just decided to get to his house. As usual, Ryoma and Eiji were MIA and Kaidoh had probably already ran home, changed clothes, and was out running around the neighborhood. He walked slowly, enjoying the breeze on his face and thinking about Kaidoh holding on to him. He was so deep in thought that he didn’t see the short teen in front of him until it was too late. He ran directly into Taichi and knocked the poor guy to the ground.
“I’m sorry Momoshiro-san” Taichi said, picking himself up off the pavement.
“No, I’m sorry Taichi, I was day dreaming.” Momo said, checking the blue haired teen for cuts or scrapes.
“Thinking of Kaidoh-san?” Taichi said, reddening slightly.
Momo felt his jaw drop and he sputtered out something that sounded remotely like “What, that jerk?” in russian. Looking at Taichi’s face told him he couldn’t lie to him.
“So, how did you know?” He asked, giving in.
“When you have loved someone as long as I have, you tend to pick up on these things.” Taichi replied somewhat sadly.
Wanting to change the subject to get that look off the younger man’s face, Momo asked him what he was doing there.
“Looking for Kaidoh-san actually.” He said, his face hardening a little.
“What do you want with him?” Momo asked. This was starting to get a little bit interesting.
“Well I am sure you know by now that Kaidoh-san beat up Akutsu senpai pretty badly yesterday, and even though I know he was standing up for you, it was a bit of overkill.”
“So you think you are going to come over here and tell me off?” Said a voice from beside them. They both jumped, not having seen Kaidoh walk up.
“I just don’t think it was right of you Kaidoh-san.” Taichi said, turning red and looking at his feet. Momo looked toward Kaidoh and saw a dangerous gleam in his eye. He saw his lover flex a few times and a warning buzzer went off in his mind. He got Kaidoh’s attention by nodding. and then he shook his head sharply. Kaidoh’s eyes narrowed for a second, and then he relaxed a little. Momo sighed in relief. He didn’t think he could stand to see a well meaning Taichi get the brunt of Kaidoh’s bad mood. The younger teen looked up when he didn’t get hit, and was surprised to see the two older men walking away.
As they walked side by side, Momo looked at Kaidoh. He still had his bandana off, and his school uniform on. He looked hot, as he always did when he was dressed like this. He wondered what was going on in his boyfriend’s mind. Kaidoh looked over at him, and took a breath. Momo had a feeling he was about to find out.

“Here we are again. Why are we always here, we look for people to play, we play singles, we play doubles. It’s too damn hot out here again. Geez this sucks.”
“Would you shut up already?” Kamio Akira said, looking toward his lover. “What the hell would you rather be doing?”
“I don’t know.” Shinji said in his quiet voice. He pulled his grip tape from his bag and studied it. He had been using the same grip tape since middle school. Ever since Echizen Ryoma had won it from him he had desired it. Finally he had gotten his hands on some after Echizen had suggested he reserve it, and he had gotten an entire box. He had been using it ever since.
“Well then stop bitching and tape your racket so we can play.” Kamio said.
Shinji started wrapping his racket, all the while he went on. “Then I get yelled at, just because I get tired of doing the same thing over and over, but I guess I could just come up with something else I would rather do, but then Akira would probably just tell me I was boring. I would like to just go see a movie or something, I mean there is no sun in a theater. I wonder if Akira would like to go see a movie. Probably not, he isn’t the type of person to just sit for a few hours and watch a movie. Damn I can’t believe how hot it is out here.”
He bit the tape to cut it, and finished taping it up. Kamio pointed to the other side of the court and Shinji walked over, pulling a ball out of his pocket as he went. He heard Kamio grunting as he stretched.
“This is going to be another one sided match.” Shinji said to himself. “If I beat Akira there is no way I am gonna get any, but if I don’t play my best game there is no way I am gonna get any. I could probably get some if we went to see a movie. Akira would never go for that though. He hates movies.” He threw the ball into the air and served it. Kamio hit it easily back and the volley commenced.
One set match later and they sat side by side on the bench, breathing hard and wiping the sweat from their faces with towels.
“Well, wanna play another one?” Kamio asked between gulps of air.
“Wanna go watch a movie instead?” Shinji ventured.
“Sure.” Kamio said, surprising the blue haired man into looking at his boyfriend.
“Really?”
“Umm, yeah really.” Kamio replied, giving Shinji a look that said ‘Why would I have said it if I didn’t mean it?’ They got up and packed up their rackets and balls, and other assorted tennis things. They were making their way off the court when they saw Mizuki Hajime walking up with a new recruit. Even though he had gone into high school, he was still the number one recruiter for the St. Rudolph tennis club. The only difference, was now he got paid to do so. He eyed them as they passed, and they watched him walk by, one hand on a young boy’s shoulder. Kamio had never liked Mizuki, and Shinji had always gotten the creeps from him as well. There was something odd about him that couldn’t be easily explained away. They knew about his affair with Fuji Yuuta, and how Mizuki had gotten his heart broken by the kouhai, who had left the city to go to school. Shinji looked toward his lover now, and saw a light in his eyes.
“That Mizuki. He is such a creep.” Kamio said quietly. “I’ll bet he sleeps with those boys.”
“Akira, don’t say things like that.” Shinji said, already bored with the situation. His mind was on whether or not he would get some after a movie.
“Let’s spy on them and see what happens.” Kamio said. Shinji knew that at this point there was no talking him out of it, and he shrugged. There would be no movie tonight, there would be no sex. This would be an ‘Akira gets whatever he wants’ night. Shinji chuckled to himself. That was every night. They started back up the stairs.

“I don’t want to hide this relationship anymore.” Kaidoh said. Momo shook his head and just stared.
“Umm, Viper, we don’t even really have a relationship.”
“Yes we do, and fuck you if I am going to pretend that we don’t anymore.”
“Fuck you too Viper, you wanna come out so bad, then go ahead, like I give a rat’s ass.” Momo said angrily.
“Good! Then I am not hiding anything anymore you bastard.” Kaidoh said, he turned on his heal and walked off toward his house.
“That was really weird Viper!” Momo called after him. Kaidoh stopped and turned around. He walked quickly back to Momo, and kissed him. Momo felt the heat start at his lips and spread through his whole body. He would never have thought it possible to basically get thrown out of the closet by someone who was hiding further in it that you ever were. The kiss broke and Kaidoh turned back around. Momo watched him walk away and felt slightly nervous, but happy. The sun was beginning to set already. It felt like a very long day was coming to a close. He started walking swiftly home now, knowing dinner was going to be on the table soon. A block later he began to whistle. Some song he had heard on the radio back when he was in middle school. He thought it could have been called “Jump” but he couldn’t recall. He would have to look that up when he got home.
