Chapter: 1/3
Genre: Non-yaoi (A/N: Are my eyes deceiving me? Non-yaoi?), Humour, General
Warning: Vaguely OOC, senseless stuff, attempted humour, some grammatical mistakes

DISCLAIMER: Only the storyline and OC's belong to me…

Intro: Why they don't drive cars? No, aside from their age factor, I mean. Simply because they fail their driving test! And now, I leave it to their driving instructor, Mr. Kageyama Hoshi, to tell his story…

Why Sakuragi Hanamichi Fails His Driving Test

Kageyama: Good morning, Sakuragi Hanamichi-kun.

Sakuragi: Morning. It's Sakuragi 'Tensai' Hanamichi, for your information.

Kageyama: Err, right. So, any experience in driving or with cars, uh, Tensai-kun?

Sakuragi: *seems pretty pleased* Yeah, obviously! You can't expect anything less from a genius, can you? I see people drive all the time, and I daresay I know how to drive like the back of my hand. Did I tell you about my subscription on automobile magazines? I tell you the good ones; blah blah blah…

Kageyama: Excellent, excellent. Now please, start the engine.

Sakuragi: *inserts key* Damn it, it won't budge!

Kageyama: *sweat drops* The other way…

Sakuragi: *laughs, hiding his embarrassment* Of course I know that! The genius is only testing you!

Kageyama: *sweat drops again* Whatever you say…Okay, now, begin!

Sakuragi: *steps on the pedal* Why isn't this &%^# moving??

Kageyama: You're stepping on the brakes.

Sakuragi: …Ahahahaha! Just checking!

Notes: Student only knows how to talk big. Driving is not, and most probably would never be, his strong point.

Further Notes: Never ask students about their experience with cars. Chances are they have none.

Why Rukawa Kaede Fails His Driving Test

Kageyama: Good morning, Rukawa-kun.

Rukawa: Hn.

Kageyama: Are you ready to begin?

Rukawa: Hn…

Kageyama: I'll take that as a yes. Start the engine, if you please. Okay. *turns to his notepad* You may begin now.

            The car does not move at all.

Rukawa: Zzzz…

            After three bruises, two almost-broken ribs and one major headache….

Kageyama: Stay awake! You can't sleep while driving!

Rukawa: *mumbles* Says who?

Kageyama: The police. Let's get this over with as soon as possible.

            So Rukawa drives…until the car comes to a halt. It appears that a HUGE mob of fan-girls has surrounded the car.

Fan-girl #1: Oooh, Rukawa-kun, Rukawa-kun, you're so sexy!

Fan-girl #2: Rukawa~! Take me for a drive!!

Fan-girl #3: Kiss me, baby, kiss me!

Kageyama: What in the name of…

Rukawa: Ahou ga…Zzzzz…

Why Kogure Kiminobu Fails His Driving Test

Kogure: Good morning, Driving Instructor-san!

Kageyama: Good morning, Kogure-kun…eh?

Kogure: Anything wrong?

Kageyama: From this picture, you're wearing glasses. But at the moment…? Did you get contact lenses?

Kogure: No, it's not like that. My little cousin has broken my spectacles. I sent them to my optic shop to get them repaired.

Kageyama: Can you see without them?

Kogure: Well, I reckon so. Are you planning to postpone my test?

Kageyama: *looks at his schedule* I'm afraid I have no spare time in the near future. Can you drive today?

Kogure: I'll endeavour. Thank you, Mr., uh, I beg your pardon…

Kageyama: What a polite young man… Kageyama, Kageyama Hoshi.

            And so, Kogure begins his task…

Kogure: Very nice weather, ne, Kageyama-sensei?

Kageyama: Ah? *looks up at the sky* On the contrary…Judging from the dark clouds above I believe it'll be raining soon…

Kogure: Oh, my mistake.

            What Kageyama doesn't know is, whilst he is busy scrutinizing the skies, he has overlooked a very important signpost.

            It says: DANGER. FOREST AREA. BEWARE OF WILD BEARS.

Notes: Make sure bespectacled students are wearing their glasses during the test, by hook or by crook.

Further Notes: Lost 5kg due to intensive marathon.

Kageyama: Mitsui Hisashi?

Mitsui: *grins* None other.

Kageyama: I'm Kageyama Hoshi, your instructor and tester for today.

Mitsui: Aa. Kogure told me about the bear incident. Nasty cuts you have there.

Kageyama: *winces* I know. Shall we begin?

Mitsui: By all means. Oh, before that… *takes out his sunglasses from his pocket* I have to look cool for this.

            Fifteen minutes later…

Kageyama: *nodding* Ah, there's a traffic light. Let's see how he handles this…

            The light is about to turn red…

Mitsui: *keeps on driving, does not stop*

Kageyama: Gyaaa! Watch out for that lorry!

Mitsui: *avoids it in the nick of time*

Kageyama: *recovers from his shock* Didn't you see the red light?

Mitsui: What red light?

Why Miyagi Ryota Fails His Driving Test

Miyagi: Hello, Kageyama-sensei!

Kageyama: Hello, Miyagi-kun. Are you prepared?

Miyagi: Hai! Once I get my driving license, the first thing I'll do is asking Aya-chan out on a date!

Kageyama: *sweat drops* Ah, yes, that's very—err, thoughtful of you. For now, why don't we concentrate on your test…

            On the road…

Miyagi: I know exactly what type of cars Aya-chan adores! That day, I was just saying to my friend…

Kageyama: Now, try reversing the car… *turns a deaf ear, wondering who this Aya-chan is, and is undecided to think if she's lucky or the other way around*

Miyagi: *obeys* You know, Aya-chan is…

Kageyama: *trying to be patient* Yes, I'm sure I'd like to meet her in person…

            Without warning a red sports car zooms past them…

Miyagi: Oh, look! It's Aya-chan! Who's the guy with her? Can it be—? *kicks into high gear, going after the sports car*

Kageyama: Reverse! REVERSE, I say! NOT forward! Aiieee!!!!!

Notes: No cure for a lovesick teenager—yet.

Further Notes: Escaped from being pursued by an officer, thanks to student's extreme speed and recklessness.

P/s: It turned out that "Aya-chan's" companion was no more than a cousin brother.
