I just thought that there weren't much of Mitani fics around, and since I adored him so much, it's my duty as fan to write this. Lolz
Anyway, this is Mitani x AkariI know there hasn't been any of this around, but... You know

She looked down at the board. "I'm sorry, it my fault. I'm so stupid at playing, and I had to drag you here to play with me." She bowed. "Did I lose badly?"
He shrugged, barely looking up. "You lost by 13 moku." He paused. "I can't say this is good, but it's definitely an improvement."
Her eyes shined with happiness. "Really?"
He raised an eyebrow. "Dream on, you still lost."
In return, she just smiled gratefully, beginning to clean up her side. "To me, that is still a lot. It's because Mitani-kun is so good, that losing by 13 moku is still good to me. Thank you for going easy on me."
"You're not that bad." He murmured softly, sliding his pieces off of the board.
She leaned back. "But still, that's because Mitani-kun is playing with me. I don't know if I can ever improve. Hikaru won't play with me because he looks down upon me, and Tsutsui-san is too busy."
"You really aren't that bad." He shrugged it off, getting up. "But you better practice more, if you lose more to me, then I can't even stand teaching you anymore."
"Right." She nodded, eyes full of hope.
Some day, I'm going to be as good as Mitani-kun!
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
She didn't know when it started, but now, it seems that Mitani is the one she spends more time with. Tsutsui was always busy and Hikaru never gave her the time during the day. All she could do, is ask if Mitani could play GO with her. He didn't seem to care that much. For a period of time, Akari wondered if he was really that nice, or just liked to prove his strength to her. Either way, that was how she had spent her entire summer.
Of course, she didn't know that the person who dragged Mitani into the club, was also the one who was going to drove him out.
After Hikaru became an Insei, Mitani never came anymore.
Ever.
She remembered when Hikaru came back that day, and asked if he could play a game with them.
Akari ended up shaking her head. "Please, Hikaru. Can you not come back here anymore?"
She remembered him staring at her, eyes wide.
"It's because Mitani-kun, he might come back." She replied. "He might come back, and if he sees you with us, he'll never forgive any of us."
But her heart gave in, and let him stayed. Because he had asked if he could play just one game with them.
That okay. She had reassured herself. It couldn't be that coisident, and Mitani-kun couldn't have shown up today.
But she was wrong.
She had valley remembered hearing foot steps out in the halls. She paused for a second, staring at the door. Almost, waiting for it to open.
It didn't.
She walked over toward it, and slid it open before poking her head out.
He was walking away.
"Mitani-kun, wait!"
He turned around. "It must be nice, having an Insei teaching you, right?"
"I..." She took a step forward. "Did you come to play GO with us, Mitani-kun?"
He shrugged carelessly. "I left my chemistry notebook here, you can check it out yourself. It's the last desk next to the wall."
She instantly ran back inside, and flipped through the said desk.
Her heart fell, there really was a notebook in there.
He really didn't come back for us.
Natsume looked up from playing with Hikaru. "That's weird. The teacher took a sick day off today."
That had jerked her up, as she ran out side. But it was too late, Mitani was already gone.
She didn't know what had gotten into her, but she had yelled at Hikaru, kicked and screamed at her. Somehow, she had lost her only hope.
But that wasn't the only thing disturbing her. She had valued her friendship with Mitani Yuuki, more than the one of Shindo Hikaru.
She didn't want to admit it hersef:
I'm in love with Mitani-kun
