Chapter 5---

Blossoming Relationship

He lay beside her and looked at her sleeping form. He moved the hair covering her face aside and looked at her peaceful sleeping face, "…aishiteru, Sakuno-chan…"

He woke up that night upon hearing his father's voice. Sakuno was not beside him anymore, He looked around his room and he found a note at his bedside table:

"I left earlier knowing that your father might be returning

anytime now,

PS. I love you too, Ryoma-kun"

He smiled at the note that Sakuno wrote for him but flushed it down the toilet so as not to show any evidence to his stupid father who might go berserk if he knows that he already got laid.

He went down to the kitchen and he saw Nanjirou fixing the broken pipes in their bathroom, "Oi Ryoma, did Sakuno leave already?"

"Yeah, so?"

"So…did anything happen? Eh? Eh?" Nanjirou stopped what he was doing to bug Ryoma.

"Go away, oyaji. I don't know what you're talking about." He was not going to give up to his father, not in tennis nor in his personal life.

"Oh come on…you're so slow Ryoma. All the good ones will be taken if you take all the ladies for granted."

"Tch, whatever."

Sakuno was smiling the next day while going to the tennis club where all of the previous Seigaku members would hangout.

"Ohayo Sakuno-chan!"

"Ohayo, Eiji nii-san!" Sakuno joined in with the conversation with the ex-Seigaku members which she treats like her big brothers except for Ryoma. And speaking of, he noticed Ryoma was not there, 'must be tired from yesterday…' she giggled at the thought, "By the way Kawamura nii-san, what happened to your eye?"

"Oh this," he pointed at his left eye, "my father said my snores became louder than usual so he had to knock me down to shut me up…"

Everybody laughed at this and even Kawamura joined in the laughing.

"Well, most people have problem with snoring," it was Fuji who is now talking, "back during our Seigaku days, I had difficulty sleeping because of all the snoring that I heard during our training camps."

"That couldn't be evaded I guess." Oishi commented just as Ryoma walked in, "Oi Echizen, Ohayo!"

"Ohayo, Ryoma-kun!" Sakuno greeted him next.

"Ohayo Sakuno-chan. Can't join you all today Oishi-sempai I have something to do." He gave a one quick meaningful look at Sakuno while the sempais are not looking which she easily understood, "well, ja ne…" he then left.

"Come to think of it," Momoshiro continued the conversation after Ryoma left, "I didn't hear Ryoma snore during all those years. Does he snore?"

"He doesn't snore, momo nii-san…" Sakuno stood up, "Sorry, I had to go back too. I needed to run an errand. Ja ne!" She then rushed outside to follow Ryoma.

"Oh I see he doesn't—wait a sec…" Momoshiro turned to look back at his teammates just as Sakuno disappeared.

"How did Sakuno-chan know O-chibi doesn't snore?"

The guys all fell silent.

"And…" Tezuka broke the silence, "didn't Ryoma just called Ryuuzaki, 'Sakuno-chan'…?"

Final note:

Yatta! I finally finish the whole fic! Hurrah Hurrah!

It sure is exhausting to write a lemon from an unexperienced person like me…whahahah!

Also, I'm planning on a sequel, so what dya think guyz, should I write a sequel?

I just finished summer classes and now school is back so if in case there will be any sequel, I think it will take time. Including hiding this fic to my friends. The Excitement sure gives me a lot of adrenaline…ja ne!
