Fuji's Rival
"Moshi moshi."
"Ryoma, ohayo."
"What is it, Fuji-senpai?"
"The regulars were supposed to practice this morning, you know that. Why didn't you come?" Fuji listened to his boyfriend's explanation and his hand soon gripped the phone tightly. He opened his blue eyes and muttered a cold "Oh, I see" before saying goodbye.
'It's her again.' Fuji told himself thoughtfully. 'Ryoma loves me but I know that she is also close to his heart.'
This had the tensai thinking and to anyone who knew Fuji well, they would know that this meant trouble. Deep in thought, he didn't pay any attention to his surroundings and soon found himself in a nearby park.
'Saa, what have we here?', Fuji smiled as he saw the object of his thoughts sitting calmly on the low wall surrounding the park. He looked up at her, observed her silently, and started talking.
"You know, I can see why Ryoma likes being with you so much. Anyone can see that you're cute and irresistible... but then again, so am I."
She looked at him at the mention of Ryoma's name but didn't do anything.
"So why is it that he still sometimes blows me away just for you? Why are you so special to him? I know that..." Fuji paused angrily and took a deep breath. "I know that you sleep with him often."
At this, she yawned lazily, as if she didn't care at all about how much Fuji knew about her relationship with Ryoma. Fuji's icy blue eyes opened dangerously but the fear that usually overcame whoever he fixed his eyes on didn't affect her at all. In return, she just fixed her own blue eyes at him and stared at him, like she was challenging him over Ryoma.
"Well, aren't you brave. That figures, Ryoma wouldn't hang out so often with a coward." A wicked thought entered Fuji's mind and he continued, "What else does Ryoma like about you, I wonder? It's surely not your conversational skills. Would you mind if I try to found out what makes you such good company?" In a flash he stepped closer, put his hands around her, and carried her down from the wall.
'Her hair is as soft as it looks', Fuji observed as he held her close to him. She made protesting sounds and tried to wriggle away from Fuji. "Saa... don't try to get away from me. I want to know you." She was still unrelentingly trying to get away. "And what would be a better way to get to know you than to kiss you?", Fuji gave her a little naughty smile. "Are you ready? You better be, because I'm about to give you a sample of something amazing that you have no hope of ever giving to Ryoma." Holding her tightly with one hand, he propped her chin up and slowly lowered his head.
A yelp was heard in the distance and running footsteps made their way towards them. "Fuji-senpai! What are you doing?!", Ryoma's stunned voice demanded. "Let go of her, let go!" Fuji sighed, complied, and she immediately ran to Ryoma's side. Ryoma didn't pay her much attention though. Instead, he went over to Fuji.
"Fuji-senpai, what were you thinking?"
A chuckle escaped the tensai's lips. "Just acting, koi. I knew you were watching us over there."
"..." Ryoma's startled face turned into one of disbelief.
"I wanted to know how long it would take you to crack, you see." Wrapping his arms around Ryoma, he whispered teasingly, "Are you mad at me?"
Ryoma sighed in relief. "No. No, it's okay. I'm used to your driving me crazy, Fuji. Just... it's just that..."
"Hnnn... what is it, Ryoma?"
"Just that... don't ever actually try to kiss Karupin, okay?"
