Chapter 4
Momoshrio concluded
that Ryoma was utterly...
Shameless.
The boy waked on
stage, as he did in tennis, as if he owned it.
That and he was
wearing a dress to boot.
Plus he had to do that
seductive winky thing when they found out who Ella was played by.
Some cheered, some
passed out, some questioned their sexuality, and other had to
go...relieve themselves.
But he was the only
one in the group that wasn't still shocked.
Even without the bra
or the wig he still looked like a girl.
He hoped he never got
drunk with Ryoma because he'd probably end up telling him about
it.
Which would leave him
hurting the next day and not in a good way either.
But it had been pretty
surprising that that Sakuno girl played the male row.
"Wow."Eiji spoke
beside him.
Wow...that pretty much
summed it up.
"..."
Finally they all
snapped out of it and had a small laugh.
They were all still
gay after all.
"Wow Ochibi looked so
much like a girl I couldn't even tell."
"Senpai he still
looks like a girl."
"Eiji be nice! But
really it was quite surprising. But, after all, we haven't seen
him in two years."
"What did you think
Atobe?"
"I think I need to
go to the bathroom."
Fuji watched that as
soon as ryoma saw his glance at him he got scared and started
running...just like before.
Obviously they were
going to have to try the direct approach.
"Saa..I see, I'll
come with you then. Tezuka and Genchiro can come help us."
"Where do you think
they're going...hssss?"
"Probability they
will go to the bathroom 90 . Probability that they will go then
wait for Ryoma off stage...100 ."
"..."
"I hope they work
everything out."
"We all do Inui."
POT
Ryoma quickly changed
into his pair of low rise jeans and a loose t-shirt.
He had to get out of
here and fast.
Sakuno stood in front
of him.
"Move." he stated
angrily.
He couldn't let them
catch him he just couldn't.
"No." she glared
back steadily at him
"Stop I can't let
them..." he trailed up.
Sakuno snapped.
"What are you so
afraid of?"
"..."
"Well Ryoma? What is
it? Afraid of being loved truly for once? They've giving you
plenty of space to get use to it...2 years in fact! How much more
time do you need?"
"I just..."
"Just what? Please
just stop it Ryoma. Stop hurting yourself over this. If you refuse
the love you are lonelier your heart emptier. Everyone deserves
happiness and that includes you!" Sakuno said as she started to
tear up a little bit.
Ryoma stared at her
and sank to the floor.
"I'm sorry...I
just..." he spoke in shock.
"It's fine. Just
go be happy Ryoma...they're waiting for you."
Ryoma slowly stood up
and made his way to the door.
He stopped in front of
the door.
He could either brush
the issue off like it never happened or he could finally give them
their answer.
He took a deep breath
and slowly turned the nob.
He opened the door and
true to Sakuno's words, they were there waiting.
Like they've always
been...
He stared at them ans
slowly walked into Fuji's open arms.
"What? No more
running away?" Atobe teased.
Ryoma snuggled his
face into Fuji's chest.
"No...I think I'm
finally ready."
"Ryoma..."
It really didn't
matter what happened back then because back then wasn't what
mattered.
It was now.
The End
