“So what do you want to do today?” Teppei asked while we walked through the city, holding hands. I wandered my mind for a bit, thinking about something fun we could do. And that’s when I thought about something. I smirked and looked at him. Maybe I could have a little fun with that innocent brain of his. “Do you want to get wet?” I ask him. I felt him flinch when I asked him that and then he started to blush. “W-What?” I chuckled and repeated my question. “Do you want to get wet?” his blush got redder and I can confirm his thinking other dirty things.

“Amei-chan!” I laughed when I saw Teppei’s smoking face I took my shirt off as I stared at his shirtless figure. He was pouting at me while I gave him an angelic smile. “Stop playing with me” so I got him? I snickered and smiled playfully at him.

“What? I’m not playing with you. I asked if you wanted to get wet, but you didn’t answer me, so I thought you’d like it”

“Yeah, but—”

“Disappointed?”

“N-No!”

“Oh, so you’re enjoying yourself with me wearing a swimsuit?”

“NO!”

I started to laugh at his pouting face as both of his cheeks puffed a blushed. He’s so cute. “C’mon, let’s get in the water!” I pull him with me. When I asked him to get wet, I was talking about the water park. Being an innocent—yeah “innocent”—he thought of other things to get wet. Hey, I admit, I am green minded, I’m not that perverted. It’s just fun to mess up with “innocent” looking Teppei here. We splash into the water as we both swam to the surface and I doused water at him. He flickered water back at me and before we knew it, we were having a water battle at the pool. Our laughing and cackling were loud enough for people to start staring at us. We didn’t mind them and just played around the water park and slid through the slides like little kids. I miss going here. I used to go here with my dad.

“Canonball!” I jumped into the water again with Teppei just swimming around. He approached me and asked what do I want to do next as I smirked at him. But before I could speak again, he warned me: “DON’T MESS WITH MY HEAD AGAIN ALRIGHT?” hehe. He learned his lesson.

So after we enjoyed ourselves at the water park, I dragged him to a restaurant to grab something to eat and just ordered at take-out. I pulled him by the park where we could eat in peace and watch some kids play. “Why did you want to eat here?” he asked giving me the box of rice we bought. I swallowed a spoonful first before answering him.

“It’s fun to eat at parks” was my answer with a smile. He smiled and wiped the rice that stick at the bottom of my lips, with his thumb. “Thanks”

We eat in silence just staring at the grade-schoolers play soccer and at the court, basketball. The sight’s making me remember of my childhood. Damn it, that’s why I hate kids. Well not really. Kids don’t really like me so I don’t like them either. They always make fun of me. Kids are so immature. (no shit, Ame) When we were finished eating and refreshed ourselves with drinks, Teppei suddenly asked me if I wanted to play with the kids there. “Are you crazy? I hate kids” I admit, showing annoyance whenever I see, hear or even breath the same air with them.

“What are you talking about? Kids are fun to be with” he told me. I shook my head.

“No, you go ahead and play, I’ll stay here and play otome games” I stated stubbornly pulling out my PSP when Teppei took it and hid it in his pocket.

“No. you’re not allowed to play otome games during our date”

“You call playing with kids a date?”

“Play date”

“This is a couple date”

“Just play with them” he grabbed my wrist, as we ran joining the kids on the court. No… kids! I hate kids. “C’mon, how are you going to get along with your own kids if you can’t even play with them” Teppei whispered at my ear.

“They are not my kids” I emphasized on the not.

“Kids aren’t that bad” he tried to convince me but I’m too stubborn. I huffed crossing my arms with a firm ‘No’. “C’mon Amei-chan…” he started to rock me back and forth but I stood firmly.

“Onii-chan, Onee-chan, would you like to join us play?” kids started to approach us, surrounding us in a circle. I grabbed hold of Teppei’s shirt, getting weary that kids are circling us. D-Damn it… those big innocent eyes are starting to cast a charm spell on us! But it won’t work on me!

“T-teppei, let’s get out of here” I tug his shirt.

“What? Without playing with the kids?”

“I told you hate kids…” I whisper with an annoyed face.

“No you don’t” was his reply before turning to the kids and asking them if he could join. The kids happily accepted him as a new teammate and they started to run around the court while playing basketball. Of course Teppei had to go easy on them since they’re just kids. There were at least three boys playing with him.

Tch, ‘No you don’t’. What kind of statement is that Teppei? T_T I sighed and decided to sit back at the bench when I turned around, seeing two girls looking up at me. I raised an eyebrow. “What?” they flinched when they heard me speak and started trembling.

“A-Ano… O-Onee-chan…” they muttered looking scared at me. Do I really look frightening to them? Psh.

I smiled at them at first to make them ease up for a bit before kneeling down to their level. “What is it?” I asked them with a soft tone as I saw them relax towards me. They look similar somehow, they must be siblings. The older sister seems to have longer hair than the younger. And both have the same features.

“C-Can you, w-w-would you like to play with us?” the younger girl stuttered when she asked me that and handed me a blue ball from her tiny hands.

I stared at it before taking it in my palms, and then smiled at them. Damn, how can I resist? “Sure, let’s play catch, shall we?” I smile then ruffled their hairs. They gave each other a smile before they took each of my hands into their little ones with the balled pinned between my arm and waist as they dragged me by the field to play. “By the way, Onee-chan, my name’s Kinome” the older sister introduced herself. “And my little sister her is Kitane” I looked over to the little girl who waved shyly at me.

“Ah, I see, I’m Ame then” I tell my name to them.

“Ame-onee!” they chorused as they giggled. I hid a chuckle and we positioned ourselves to start playing. I threw the ball lightly enough for the younger girl to catch successfully and she passed it to her sister. We continued to play like that until I accidentally tossed it stronger than I should and it went flying over to the soccer field where some kids were playing too. “I-I’ll get it!” Kitane volunteered running over to the ball beside the goal posts. One of the boys there kicked goal almost hitting Kitane at the face causing her to fall on her butt. So Kinome and I rushed over to her, looking if she was okay.

“Kitane, are you okay?” I knelt down beside her noticing a small scratch on her legs. “What happened there?”

“I-I just tripped Onee-chan…” she reasoned, with Kinome helping her up. I suddenly felt a vein pop on my head as I turned to the boys yelling at them.

“HEY YOU BRATS!”

Teppei’s POV

I heard yelling over at the soccer field as I look over to see Amei-chan yelling at the kids who were playing at the soccer field. They all knelt in front of her bowing down while yelling sorry’s and begging her to not hurt them. “Hey, what’s going on there?” Hideki, one of the boys I’m playing with asked looking at them.

“Isn’t that Kitane-chan and Kinome-chan?” said another boy named Hiroki.

“Why are with that scary looking girl?” asked Aoba and realized something. “Isn’t that Onii-chan’s girlfriend?”

I flinched and ran towards Amei-chan to see what’s going on her. When we got there she was finished yelling at them and put a little brunette girl in front of the boys. “SAY SORRY TO HER!” she hollered as every single one of the boys trembled and shouted a sorry. “Good” Amei-chan calmed down and looked at me. “Oh Teppei, hi there”

“What’s going on, Amei-chan? Why are you yelling at them?” I ask as she turned to me. “I know that you hate kids but it’s not a good reason to scare them” I look at the kids who were kneeling and saw their souls hanging out of their mouths out of fear towards Amei-chan. Poor kids…

“What? They almost hit Kitane-chan, I’m just scolding them” she explained as I looked down at the little girl, holding onto Amei-chan’s shirt.

“Yeah, I know you have good intentions, but look…” I pointed at the lifeless three boys on the ground. “You scared the hell out of them…”

“I did?” Amei-chan sweat dropped and knelt in front of the three kids patting them each on the head. “Hey, why are you all scared at me? I was just telling you to be careful you know. It’s not like I’m mad at you brats or something” she said as the three kids came back to their senses. “I’m sorry for yelling at you, but you don’t have to be afraid of me” she smiled at the kids who looked like they’ve seen an angle when she smiled.

“So beautiful!” they gawked at her when I saw her sweat dropped. “You’re drooling you know” she pointed out.

TIMESKIP~

We played with the kids for a few hours until we didn’t realizing that it’s already getting dark. The kids’ parents already fetched them and they all bid us goodbye. Kitane-chan and Kinome-chan gave Amei-chan a hug and even gave her their ball as a promise that they’ll play with us again. We waved our hands, watching them leave the park when Amei-chan and I’s stomach suddenly growled. We both looked at each other. “I’m hungry” we laughed together as I was the first one to stop and suggest that we eat dinner at my house. “C’mon I’ll cook for you”

“You can cook?”

“I can heat the dishes my grandma left for me”

“So you can’t cook…”

Grandma and Grandpa visited their old province for last week and will be staying there for a month, so I’ll be living by myself by then. We arrive at my old traditional Japanese house. It was dark since I forgot to turn on the lights on when I left. Amei-chan, being afraid of the dark grabbed hold of my shirt as we went in and I flipped the light switch on. “There, it’s not dark anymore, you can let go now” I told her giving her a smile.

“W-What? W-Who told you I’m afraid of the dark?” she sputtered blushing and released the grip on my shirt.

“Kyo did” was my answer, luring her into our dining room and let her wait at the dining table while I heat up dinner.

“Hey, I’ll go make some rice” she offered help. “Well, with a rice cooker of course” she added, plugging the rice cooker into socket and went to wash the rice for…

“Why are you putting 5 cups of rice there? It’s only the two of us” I ask.

“I’m a big eater” she replied and I’m starting think that 5 cups of rice she put isn’t enough.

As we readied our dinner, we started to eat and I saw what Amei-chan meant with the “big eater”. I smiled on how eats and how she stained her mouth with some rice sticking at the corner of her lips. I wiped it with a table napkin that was placed on the table, cleaning up her face receiving a thank you from her. We finished dinner around 6pm so we wasted our time watching TV and talking about stuff about us.

“You really beat him up that hard?” I asked in disbelief after she told me the story of her and Hanamiya always fighting when they used to be classmate in first year middle school. She nodded her cutely and scooted over to lie on me which made blush because we were really close to each other and we’re the only ones in the house. H-Hey, I-I’m not dirty minded okay?

“Your body feels warm” she whispered, her eyes drooping down. She must be sleepy. I was right, because a few minutes later, I can hear a soft snore escaping her lips. I chuckled and felt myself get sleepy too.

Ame’s POV

I shuffled a little in my spot when I started to wake up. I open my eyes to see Teppei sleeping soundly and I see myself lying on his chest. I quickly sat up and checked the time knowing that it was already 10pm. Damn it’s late! It was around 7pm when we started chatting, so we slept for three hours! Teppei also started to wake up when he saw me rubbing his eyes yawning. “Ohayo, Amei-chan”

“It’s still evening” I informed him as he quickly sat up checking the time.

“Y-You’re right!” he reacted and stood up. I also stood up beside him and tell him I should go home but he stopped me. “It’s already late! I won’t let you walk out there alone!”

“And I won’t let you walk me home either and go back here alone!”

“Then why don’t you stay for tonight?” he suddenly suggested before an awkward silence occurred between us. What did he just say? I gulped and avoided eye contact with him before I muttered an okay. He seems to be surprised a bit because I heard him silently gasp. “W-Well then… I-I’ll go see if I can I find clothes for you at mom’s room. Make yourself at home…” he uttered before disappearing of to his mom’s room, I think…

For now, where should I go?

I roamed around his house, going upstairs and miraculously did not get lost because his house is somehow big. I was able to find his room because there was tons of basketball posters stick all around the walls, including a picture of Team Japan during the times of my father. I sneaked into his room and scanned the posters before ending up staring at Team Japan poster. There stood Kagetora, Genta, Masaaki, Katsunori, Eiji, my dad, Masako, and my mom as their manager slash strategist. I noticed how young they looked in this group photo. My dad looked really happy here, his arm draped around my mother’s shoulders. And she had an annoyed looked at him. Tch.

I heard the door creak as I turned around to see Teppei finding out that I sneaked into his room. I flinched and pointed at the Team Japan poster. “I was just looking…” I trailed when he approached me and looked at the poster.

“Ah, that. Well my dad was a big fan of basketball back then and when he found out that Japan was going to participate in the International Competition, he was really cite about it” Teppei informed me. “When he found out that you were the strategist of our team, he suddenly recalled that he had a poster of them and gave it to me. And did I mention he had a big crush on your mom before?”

I sweat dropped. “Of all people?” I see don’t see why my mom attracts people with that coldness of hers.

“Yeah, and my mom really liked your dad when they were teenagers” he laughed. I chuckled too. “Well sucks for them, mom and dad got married when they were still young” I said recalling the love story my dad once told me when we lived together. “Yeah, it’s really weird to know about it” he scratched the back of his head. “By the way, I found clothes that could probably fit you”

“Really? Thank you”

“U-Um… I readied the bath for you… if you want…” I can tell he was embarrassed that we were the ones only here in his house. Where are his parents and grandparents anyway?

Teppei handed me her mom’s clothes and told me where the bath is. I washed myself from the dirt because playing at the playground can make you very dirty. I remember to text Kyo about me staying at Teppei’s house for night. Or not because she might think inappropriate stuff. You know Kyo. Die-hard fan of the so called “Amei” or “Teme” love team. Now that I think about it, Teppei calls me “Amei-chan”. Is he a fan too? Nah, that’s too dumb. Being a fan of your own love team, only an idiot would be like that.

(A/N: Teppei is an idiot <3 Ame: S-Shut up! >///<)

I finished taking a bath and went back to Teppei’s room to go see if he’s—“W-WAAA!!!” I screamed when I saw him just stepping out of his bathroom in his room only a towel wrapped around his waist. He just finished taking a bath… D-Damn it! Avert eyes Ame! Avert eyes!

“A-Amei-chan!!” his face instantly blushed when he saw me so I slammed his door shut and waited outside for him to get dressed. Gah, that was so awkward. I can heat my face flush when I heard the door open behind me. Teppei was now dressed into his PJ’s which made me snort. “A-Amei-chan? What are you laughing at?” his face blushed as I laughed loudly wiping the tears of joy.

“S-Sorry Teppei. You just look cute in those PJ’s of yours!” I cackled holding my stomach because it started to hurt.

“J-Just get in here already…” he muttered pouting and let me in his room. Wait I’m going to sleep with him here? I felt relieved when I saw futon laid down on the ground so I assume we’re not going to sleep on the same bed. “I remember you getting scared in the dark during our training, and the guest room didn’t have any night lights so I thought you could sleep here with me… Not that we’re sleeping on my bed together! I-I’ll sleep on the floor…”

“What? But it’s your bed”

“But you’re a girl”

“That acts like a guy”

“Still a girl”

“Tch, fine” I sighed and flopped myself on his bed. Even it feels warm. He lied down on the futon on the floor as I peeked at him from the bed. He pulled the covers over his body and looked at me. “You’re really going to sleep there?” I asked. The lamp light was still on.

He blushed when I asked him. “Y-Yeah”

“Won’t you get cold?” I questioned.

“N-No…” I smiled and went down from the bed to lie next to him. “W-What are you doing?” I got under the covers with him, and hugged him. He put his arm around me.

“I feel cold, be my warmth” I told him feeling his breath brush my face as he leaned down to kiss me.

“You’re too cuddly, you know?”

I giggled. “But you enjoy it” I kissed him back cupping his face.

Author’s POV

Ame started Teppei like they have no planning on sleeping since it was already quarter to 11. He didn’t mind it, and kissed her back. He didn’t even notice that was already hovering over her if they didn’t stop to catch their breaths. Teppei saw their position and blushed muttering a sorry to her but she said it was okay. He looked surprised at first but she quickly reconnected their lips together before he could even go back to his spot in the futon. They were sleeping in only ONE futon only. Even though it was cold, they started to sweat. They could feel each other’s body heat from the closeness of their body, blocking the cold air winter provided. They’ve already transferred from the futon to the bed for more space as they broke away from each other. “U-Uh” they looked at each other awkwardly before Ame hid herself under the covers. “Get under the covers, idiot” she ordered Teppei as he followed. They faced each other, lying down, their eyes locked, when Teppei started to open topic about their date.

“Did you like our date today?” he asked.

“There were kids, so no” Ame joked and laughed when he saw Teppei frown. “I’m kidding, best first date ever” he smiled at her, kissing her forehead.

“I’m glad you like it” he said in relief pulling her closer to him. “I told you you don’t hate kids”

“Tch, I couldn’t say no”

“It’s because you love kids”

“I don’t”

“Tell that to your future children”

“Why do you always have to mention that, you idiot? I have yet to plan for my future family” Ame hit him on the head. “Don’t tell me you already have future plans”

“I don’t” he didn’t sound convincingly so Ame raised an eyebrow at him. “I don’t believe you” she said. “It’s the truth” he replied. “You know I hate dishonesty. And I wouldn’t expect it from someone like you”

“Fine, I once picture it but—”

“See you lied!!”

“Well at least I admitted it!”

“Nuh uh!”

“J-Just drop it!” Teppei kissed her to shut her up. And it continued.
