Electronic Love
Warning: shounen-ai (still), weirdness. OOC-ness(?), grammar, typos... That's
about it... I guess...
A/N: I must apologize for the delay but due project is a bitch!!! I actually
planned to upload two chapters this time but I had no time to finish and edit
the next chapter. Maybe next time, okay? Btw I have a bad news and a good news
for you. The bad news is that I got problems in my place and that will probably
affect the process of writing this story because I'll probably move out again.
The good news is that I've decided how the ending will be! I think this story
will end in chapter 16. And it's going to be full of smuts, everyone *wink*...
Be patient though, because I'm not good at making sex scenes and I planned at
least two of them. Ah... the wonder of teenage hormones... Oh and this chapter
is about the event that took place before Tezuka replied Fuji's text message
(Prince Charming's text:: “I’m glad
you like the rose. And the hints will arrive tomorrow in a place you might find
unusual.”). Enjoy!!!
Disclaimer: All I have is the mad idea to make this story... The chocolate is from Kee's collection.
Starting the Preparations
Oishi
was surprised that evening when Tezuka suddenly asked him to go with him
somewhere. He honestly didn’t think that Tezuka should leave the computer or
his cell phone at all. Oishi had been there when Tezuka asked for Inui’s
advice. The data man had suggested text message, which Oishi had promptly agreed
with since it’s a faster way to communicate. Tezuka had seemed reluctant but
he had agreed eventually.
More
surprise came when Oishi saw Inui standing behind Tezuka, waiting for him.
Hadn’t the three of them just met this evening after practice? What made
Tezuka rushed to seek their aids again so soon?
Quietly,
Tezuka showed Oishi Fuji’s text message for him. A quick look at Tezuka’s
face told Oishi that the bespectacled boy hadn’t thought that far. Tezuka
apparently hadn’t planned his rendezvous carefully. Inui was obviously there
to provide some ‘ii data’ to help him make decision. But Tezuka still needed
some common sense in this matter, so he called Oishi to assist him against
Inui’s mad information.
“Kawamura
sushi.” Inui said when they were seated in a small café nearby. It was the
café Tezuka went to with Echizen. “He likes wasabizushi there.”
“But
it’s too obvious. Besides, well, that place isn’t romantic enough.” Oishi
argued.
“Italian
restaurants.”
“Too
expensive.”
“French
restaurants.”
“Same
argumentation.”
“I
want privacy.” Tezuka finally spoke up. Inui and Oishi stared at him as he
looked squarely back at them.
Oishi
leaned back against his seat. “Privacy, huh? Does this mean you want no one to
be around?”
“If
possible.”
“Not
a restaurant, then” Inui mumbled as he scribbled something on his notebook.
“Atobe’s summer house.”
“I
will not ask for his help in this kind of private situation.” Tezuka said
sternly.
“School
building.”
“Absolutely
not.” Tezuka and Oishi answered simultaneously. Oishi blushed when Tezuka and
Inui looked at him in question. “There were security after school, very little
chance of privacy and… it’s not romantic.” Oishi explained bashfully.
“Believe me.”
Inui
wrote something on his notebook again.
“Hmm…
That’s all I can come up with, actually. There were restaurants I wanted to
recommend for the food and atmosphere. But since you want complete privacy…”
Even
Inui looked confused this time. Tezuka started to think that this whole meeting
was hopeless. He should probably stick to Kawamura sushi.
“Fsshh…
Inui-senpai, Oishi-senpai, buchou. Konbanwa.” A hissing voice startled the
three young men who were deep in thought. They all looked up to see Kaido
standing by Inui’s seat. Their junior was wearing normal attire for once and
not his sweat drenched shirt and running shorts. He was wearing green t-shirt, a
jacket and black trousers.
“Kaido!
What are you doing here?” Oishi exclaimed in surprise.
Kaido
sat beside Inui and explained. “I frequent this place.” There was a pause as
he glance slightly to Inui, “What are you doing here?”
“Ah,
well you see, Tezuka here has some issues…” Oishi stuttered to explain.
Tezuka didn’t seem to be inclined to answer that question anyway.
“Is
this about Fuji-senpai?”
Oishi
choked and spluttered incomprehensibly in surprise while Tezuka glared. His
glare wasn’t directed to Kaido, though. It was directed to the tennis team’s
manager who was currently hiding his face behind his data book.
“I’ve
heard from Inui-senpai.”
Inui
seemed to turn slightly to Kaido who barely glanced at him. That explained their
unusual lack of teamwork during practice today. But Inui and Kaido?! Why did
their team members turn gay one by one? Oishi’s head was still spinning with
this revelation when Inui spoke up.
“Kaido.”
“Yes,
Inui-senpai.” Kaido answered formally with a hint of sarcasm.
There
was a short glaring match before Inui resumed his speaking again. “I’ve told
you it was completely accidental.”
“Was
it?” Kaido challenged with the kind of tone he usually used when he began an
argument with Momoshiro. Tezuka felt an urge make them run laps around the city.
“I
did not calculate that your mother would forget her purse and returned home so
early.”
“I
can’t believe I’m hearing this.” Oishi muttered in despair.
“Kaido.”
“Yes,
Inui-senpai.” Their junior still hadn’t lose his cold tone.
There
was that short glaring match again and Tezuka’s temple started to throb. Then
Inui sighed softly.
“I
apologize.”
The
anger in Kaido’s eyes subsided as soon as he heard those words. “Inui-senpai?”
“I
miscalculated. I should’ve been more careful. I should’ve been prepared for
even the slightest possibility.”
“Inui-senpai…”
“Oh,
God…” Oishi muttered again. He started to look away since it seemed like the
couple was about to kiss or something. Tezuka simply looked down and engaged
himself in a one-sided glaring match against his coffee.
“Did
I get you into trouble, Kaoru?” Inui said in a husky voice.
“No.
You managed to convince my mother with the Romeo-Juliet thing.” The blush on
Kaido’s face was even obvious in his voice.
“I’m
glad.”
There
was silence in the table. Tezuka and Oishi refused to look up to the other two
boys. Though they were sure they’re not going to do anything funny in public,
witnessing such scene from the most unexpected couple was still making them
uncomfortable.
“Kaido,
don’t your uncle own that summer house that was on the newspaper today?”
Inui suddenly asked in his normal, formal voice. Oishi and Tezuka looked up.
Whatever tension existed before, it had disappeared and Inui and Kaido looked
like their usual selves.
“Yes.
A magazine also published an article about it. There were some photography
sessions in that house recently.”
“And
I suppose now it’s open for public?” Inui pressed. Tezuka and Oishi started
to see the direction of the conversation.
“Yes,
since my uncle doesn’t use it often. He decided to rent the place for weekends
and such occasions. But it won’t be on the market until next month. Why?”
“Tell
me, Kaido, do you think you can convince your uncle to lend it to us for this
weekend?”
“I
guess. What do you want to use it for?”
“Tezuka
wants to… date Fuji.” Oishi explained.
Kaido
nodded his understanding. “I’ll call him tonight.”
“That
won’t do.” Inui suddenly said. “Tezuka needs to reply tomorrow. Can you
call your uncle now?”
“Alright.”
Kaido stood up and went outside to call his uncle. The remaining three occupants
of the table glanced around nervously. The result of the phone call would
determine the future of Fuji and Tezuka’s relationship and their plan.
When
the doorbell jingled to signal Kaido’s return, Tezuka’s heart was beating
madly in his chest. But Tezuka being Tezuka and didn’t show it on his face. He
watched as his junior reclaimed his seat.
“My
uncle agreed. You can have his house for the weekend.”
Tezuka
released the breath he had been holding unconsciously. “Thank you, Kaido.”
Tezuka said with a bow.
Kaido
squirmed nervously in his seat. “It’s alright senpai. I’m happy to be able
to help.”
Tezuka
nodded and turned to Oishi. “As for my reply… I need your help again.”
“What
is it?” Oishi asked with a smile.
“I
want to give him information of the location and the date. I also want to give
him present like today. He seemed to like it.”
“I
can help you with the picture of the house. I’ll print it for you if you want,
senpai.” Kaido offered.
“That’s
good. Can you bring it to my house tonight, Kaido? I’m in charge of delivering
Tezuka’s messages.”
“Alright,
Oishi-senpai.”
“Thank
you for your help Inui, Kaido. Oishi.” Tezuka said as he stood up. Soon he and Oishi left
the café. Kaido watched as they disappeared in the crowd.
“Why
exactly did you come here, Kaoru?” Inui asked as he wrote something on his
notebook. Kaido didn’t answer that question so Inui continued. “You don’t
frequent this place. The only times you came were with me. Do you miss me,
Kaoru?”
Kaido
flushed. “Senpai!” He hissed.
“Did
I get you in trouble with your mother?”
“No.
She believed that it was for drama and by some accident I was chosen as Juliet
and you as Romeo.”
Inui
closed his book. “Drama, eh?” Then he leaned to whisper something in
Kaido’s ear. “Then I think she would understand if we must practice
regularly to be able to ‘play’ well.”
“Inui-senpai!”
Kaido hissed, blushing even more furiously.
Inui
simply smirked to his boyfriend. Then after Kaido had clamed down marginally, he
asked again. “Is that a no?”
With
a blush Kaido whispered. “Not… at all…”
*
“I
can’t believe those two.” Oishi muttered with a shake of his head as they
left the café.
“Hnn”
Tezuka answered.
“You
didn’t seem surprise, though. Have you known, Tezuka?”
“I
have my suspicions.” Tezuka answered curtly. Suddenly he stopped walking,
causing Oishi to almost bumped onto him. “For the letter tomorrow…”
“Yes?”
“You
think what will be appropriate to accompany the picture?”
Oishi
thought of this for a while. “We’ve used flower before. We should find
something else. What about food?”
“What
do you suggest?”
“With
Fuji’s unusual taste for food, we should get something strange but romantic. I
think I know what we’re looking for!” The vice captain suddenly exclaimed.
Then he lead Tezuka somewhere without telling him the destination. Tezuka simply
followed Oishi until they arrived in front of a sweetshop. “Let’s come
in!”
When
Tezuka entered the shop, he had to pause to admire his surrounding. It wasn’t
only the incredibly large amount of sweets and chocolate that made him stop, but
also the atmosphere in the small shop. The interior was similar to that of a
small house in European village he once visited but there were shelves full of
chocolates of any kind on one wall and glass containers full of sweets on
another. The air smelt sweet, tempting even Tezuka to try one of the displayed
products.
Oishi
conversed with a gaijin on the counter when Tezuka admired the atmosphere. Now
the foreigner motioned for Tezuka to come closer. Hesitantly, Tezuka approached
him.
“Good
evening. I understand that you want to buy chocolate for a loved one.” The man
said politely. His Japanese was almost perfect, only accentuated with a hit of
something foreign.
“Yes…
I’m not sure, actually.” Tezuka admitted.
“That’s
not unusual.” The man said. His blue eyes twinkled as he smiled. “So tell
me, what kind of chocolate do you want to give to this person?”
“I
don’t know.” Tezuka replied honestly.
“Fu…
This person has an unusual taste. What do you suggest?” Oishi spoke for his
friend.
“Unusual
taste, huh? Let me see…” The man looked at the trays of chocolate.
“Perhaps…” He took a tray of round shaped chocolate. “Try this.”
Tezuka
hesitantly picked a piece of chocolate. He grimaced when he tasted the
bitterness of the chocolate. But then he tasted chili in the middle of the bitter chocolate and raised an eyebrow. Maybe Fuji
would like this.
“What
do you think?” The gaijin asked expectantly.
“I
think it’s what I’m looking for. How much is it?”
“How
much do you want?”
Tezuka
glanced at Oishi for his opinion. “Just a small box is enough, I guess.”
“Ne,
can you put it in a heart-shaped box?” Oishi suddenly piped in. Tezuka
promptly glared at him.
“Alright.
What color do you want?”
“Blue.”
Tezuka answered. Red would make him seem too much like a lovesick.
“Now,
Tezuka, where do you want to put it?” Oishi asked while the gaijin wrapped
Tezuka’s order. “Tomorrow’s Sunday. We can’t put it in his locker.”
“That’s
the problem.”
“Hmm…
What about this: I’ll invite all the regulars to a lunch tomorrow to this
small restaurant I know Fuji and Eiji know about. Near that restaurant was a
small park that they couldn’t possibly miss visiting. I’ll put the chocolate
and the picture there.”
“What
if someone fund them first or they don’t find them?” Tezuka asked the
obvious problem.
“I’ll
make sure no one found them first and I’ll put it in a place they couldn’t
possibly miss. So what do you think?”
“Alright,
if you were sure.”
^_^
A/N:
And that's what happened before Tezuka finally replied Fuji's short message. I
kinda like the chapter esp when Kaido came and fought with Inui. I had fun
writing that. But the scene in the sweet shop is pathetic, I think. My knowledge
about chocolate is unfortunately only limited to milk chocolate and white
chocolate (my fave!!), Let's just say that that kind of chocolate exist and
taste weird, okay. Perhaps you could suggest the weirdest chocolate you've
eaten! At any rate, please review and drop a comment or two!!
