Ayako was bored. Very bored. And she has a right to feel bored. Hanamichi has not made any trouble for the past week...

*BASH!*

"Itee!! Ya stupid gorilla!"

"What did you say?! *BASH*

"Ahhh!!"

Ayako winced. Ok, what she should've said was that Hanamichi has not made any BIG trouble for himself for the past week that would make Akagi hit him more often than now. Ayako scratched her cheek with her paper fan and thought, What's missing I wonder...

Scanning around the gym to get a better picture of the situation she saw that Rukawa was at the far side of the gym, sweeping. At least that was what the fox-eyed rookie was pretending to do. Whatever act the boys put on could not fool her, no sirree! She was the one with the eye of a hawk and the mind as quick as a steel trap. Nothing got past her.
Which brought her back to the question... whyever is Rukawa pretending to be sweeping when he is in fact looking at the the redhead in a leery kind of way - as leery as a cold block of ice can be that is.

What is Rukawa's problem? And Hanamichi's too?! Ayako brain demanded, turning to look towards the self-proclaimed tensai who seemed to be trying to make himself small under Rukawa's intense gaze. And... is the redhead blushing?!
Gasp! It must be the full moon because she thought she saw Rukawa....smirking?!

Now common sense would tell her that anything would've caused those frighteningly strange yet ingtruiging chain reaction of the two juniors but having just subscribed to an internet company and having wasted hours upon hours in front of her computer downloading kilobytes full of yaoi fanfics helped her imagination to go wild. And get wild it did.

She was about to let lose a giggle when she suddenly saw Mitsui patting Kogure's behind when they thought no one was looking. The scarred-faced senior said something too low for her to hear but it certainly had a strong effect on making the spectecled-boy blush as bright red as a tomato.
Oh! This just kept getting better and better! Who would've thought! She should've been blind not to notice!

She wasn't aware that she was grinning from ear to ear until she heard a soft voice asking, "Ayako-san, what's so funny?"

The curly-haired manageress turned around and giggled, pulling the junior to sit beside her on the bench. Ayako looked around conspiratorily - even knowing that they were alone with the nearest person too far from them to hear their conversation - before bringing Haruko close to whisper, "I think the boys are gay!"

"Eh?!!" gasped Haruko. Ayako quickly pulled her back beside her when everyone else looked at them in curiosity.

"Shh!" hissed the manageress, "It's supposed to be a secret! No one is supposed to know except those boys."

"Then how did you know about it Ayako-san? And why are you telling me this?" asked the brown-haired girl, puzzled.

"Because I figured it out myself."

"Eh? Honto ni?"

"Aa!" Ayako nodded furiously, "You wouldn't believe who they are."

"I..."

"It's Mitsui and Kogure-sempai!"

"Eh?!"
Again Ayako had to pull her back down when she jumped up in shock.

"Shh!" hissed the manageress again, fully enjoying herself and excited by her discovery, "It's true!"

"W-What makes you say that, Ayako-san?"

"I saw Mitsui-sempai patting Kogure-sempai's butt!"

"But they sometimes do that when they encourage each other in the game..."

"Not during the game," sighed Ayako, "I saw Mitsui-sempai cropping a feel on Kogure-sempai just now!"

"I don't believe you!" gasped Haruko.

"It's true!" persisted the senior, "And guess who else is gay too."

"There are more than two?!"

"Aa! You won't believe this when I tell you... brace yourself, Haruko-chan... it's Rukawa and Sakuragi!"

"EH?!! I-IE!!"

"Hush!" hissed Ayako pulling the girl down. By that time Akagi was seriously thinking of walking up to them and demand what they were talking about that was so amazing that made his sister act like that but knowing Ayako she might turn it onto him and make him regret to have been a busy-body in affairs that does not concern him. Maybe say that they were talking about *ahem* private girl's stuff or if she was really perverse she would say that they were talking about his ass which has been in the minds of the Shohoku population (especially the girls) ever since that stupid redheaded monkey accidentally pulled his shorts off the first time the two of them had a match.

After much thought, he decided to just stand there and.... what the hell is that redheaded monkey doing?!

"Sakuragi! I thought I told you to pack up the balls so that Rukawa can sweep the floor!"

"Let the Kitsune pick them up on his own if he wants to sweep!"

"Do'aho."

"Baka kits- *blush*"

"See? See? What did I say!" giggled Ayako to her friend, "Something fishy is going on with those two and I bet something downright dark and dirty too."

"Ayako-san!" Haruko blushed, placing her palm to her lips, "It couldn't be!"

"Yes it is!" the senior persisted, "Have you ever seen anyone, especially boys like them blush for no reason at all? This is what I think..."

"Ayako-san..."

"First let us consider Kogure and Mitsui-sempai. Kogure-sempai admires Mitsui-sempai ever since year one and when Mitsui-sempai came back to play again, Kogure-sempai managed to capture his heart but because he is a shy person to do anything, Mitsui-sempai makes the first move! And I can imagine Mitsui-sampai trying to win him over to accept him! I know Mitsui-sempai can be so forceful when he wants to be especially when Kogure-sempai is so shy and conservative. Stolen deep heart-felt kisses here and thorough feel-me-up gropes there and Kogure-sempai is hooked! But I'd expect a few angst from them from time to time, I think. Those two are those type of people."

"They are?"

"And Rukawa and Sakuragi!" giggled Ayako in glee, "Oh I don't know where to start to think of how Rukawa managed to get Sakuragi!"

"*piku* W-Why Rukawa?"

"Can you imagine Sakuragi being that quick?! If you haven't noticed I'll tell you know, Haruko-chan. Sakuragi may be a genius in basketball but he's not a genius in other stuffs. He's naive and you should know how stubborn he can be. Although he's crazy about Rukawa he wouldn't want anything to do with the boy if he could help it!"

"But then why-"

"Because Rukawa is also crazy about him, see?" pointed out Ayako as if it was as clear as day, "Look at how Rukawa watches Sakuragi. As if Sakuragi is a bird to be devoured and he's the cat ready to strike when not being watched!"

"Ooh..."

"And the kisses...!"

"Also heart-felt?"

"Iie! Passionate! Like a bush under fire!"

"But Ayako-san, there could be other reasons..."

"Like what?"

"Like...like... maybe Kogure-sempai has gained weight and now Mitsu-sempai is teasing him about it..."

"Uh..."

"And about Rukawa-kun... maybe... maybe he and Sakuragi-kun made a bet and Sakuragi-kun lost so Rukawa-kun is waiting for the perfect time to get paid. And Sakuragi-kun is embarassed, afraid that Rukawa-kun would make him do something foolish like... like... dressing up as a clown or something..."

Ayako sighed, "Haruko-chan, Haruko-chan. You're missing the point. What would you prefer? Four young and definitely healthy handsome boys making wild passionate sex..."

"Ayako-san!" gapsed Haruko, hiding her red face behind her hands.

"... or the diet and bet reason?"

"I...."

"Think about it again.... wild, passionate, writhing with ecstacy on the sheets sex or....boring diet and bet reason?"

"I... I..."

"Well?"

"Umm... wild and passionate?"

"Very. And don't forget writhing with ecstacy."

"Ooh... now that I think about it, I notice that Kogure and Mitsui-sempai spend quite a long time to change after practice."

"Ah. Steamy locker sex. Pushing Kogure-sempai against the locker and taking him then and there."

"And... and Sakuragi-kun's duty in the roster to clean the gym is the same as Rukawa-kun. Do you think...?"

"Yes?" Ayako wriggled her eyebrows.

"Umm... more wild and passionate, writhing in ecstacy se- *blush* love?"

"You're getting it!" congratulated Ayako, patting the girl on the back, "Desperate court sex. With them fighting all the time you should at least be suspicious of why they act like that with each other. Restrained lust, of course! What better way to release that need than to have..." Ayako cut herself off to let Haruko continue.

"Ummm.... wild and passionate se- uh... love!"

"Remember writhing in ecstacy."

"Oh yes," Haruko sweatdropped, "writhing in ecstacy..."

"Ah yes," smiled Ayako getting a dreamy look on her face that came close to the leer Rukawa had, only with much... leer.
"Two bodies sweaty and struggling against each other trying to achieve the wonderful, glorious point of orgasm!"

"Ooh...."

"Uh-huh..." Ayako nodded wisely when suddenly she saw Kogure break off from Mitsui to walk away towards the door, passing her and Haruko while muttering, "Hmph. I'm not fat."

"Oh yes you are Kogure," chuckled Mitsui following the embarassed spectacled-boy to tease him more, "I told ya to lay off the snacks. Now you'll have a butt as wide as that obaasan in that bakery shop."

"Umm... Ayako-san..."

"That's it, Kitsune! I know you want to make me look like a clown! Admit it! You want to make me make a fool of myself!"

"You are already a fool, do'aho," snorted Rukawa, "But maybe wearing a rubber red nose for one month would make you all the more stupid. Yes, a red rubber nose would suffice..."

"Temme!!"

"Oh well," Ayako sighed in disappointment, "It was good while it lasted."
Haruko sighed as well but although it was tempting to wish for what they had first thought to be true, she was thankful to know that it was not.

"Kogure-k~un... are ya angry with me?"

"For teasing me yes," Kogure sniffed, refusing to look at the scarred-face boy.

When they reached the locker-room, Mitsui quickly locked the door and pushed Kogure against the locker so suddenly that made the spectacled-boy nearly lose his breath by the impact.

"Awww... Min-kun... I think you'd look cute if you gain a bit weight," cooed Mitsui as he nuzzled the brown-haired boy on the neck, "I'd like to have a little tummy to nibble on."
Sliding down against Kogure's body, Mitsui pushed the boy's shirt up and began bite the lean muscles on the stomach.
"See? Not enough fat. Let me check the other parts," grinned Mitsui pushing Kogure's shorts down.

The vice-captain gasped in shock, "Mitsui! No! Don't- OH MY GOD! Ungh! Hisashi...!"

"Be quiet will ya," Mitsui's voice came from below, "I'm trying to locate the fat here..."

"I hate you," growled Hanamichi grabbing Rukawa by his front shirt when they were finally alone in the gym, "I'm not going to wear that rubber nose, kitsune!"

"Then how about wearing a dress?"

"N-Nani?"

"A dress," drawled Rukawa, "A short dress. I want to see as much of your legs as possible."

"Kono hentai (You pervert)," muttered Hanamichi, blushing furiously as he let Rukawa go.

"Wait until we get to the handcuffs, do'aho," murmured Rukawa against Hanamichi's lips before he proceeded to tackle the redhead down and kiss him senseless.

*ahem* And of course doing other activities that included wild, passionate, writhing in ecsta- ...well, you get my point.

~the end.
