Good. Come back and update again. Haha.

This time we're back with a new fic again, hehe.

This time it's still the same, it's a fic.

Prince of tennis

Our own prince (got slapped//)

We probably won't be any more irrational than this. Haha. Go read the fic.

....Have you ever...

....The fact that we will feel hurt...

....with the way people you love call other people by their names...

....but with us...they call us by..surname.

"Marui-kun!!!" The voice of the little sheep of the Hyotei rang out. It very well attracts the attention of the owner of the name as well as people in the area. Everyone turned towards the source of the loud voice, confused. Before that, the small figure of Akutagawa Jiro appeared, standing outside the court waving excitedly.

Towards Bunta who looked on in shock. before spreading a gentle smile back to his 'girlfriend'

"Jiro!!♡" Bun shouted back as he ran away from Kord who was practicing his counterattack and immediately went to find Jiro. Completely forgetting his partner Jackal and the others. It's like there's only the two of us in this world.

"Jiro, no practice today?" Bunta asked in a gentle tone. It's different from when talking to other people like the sky and the abyss. Especially when a little sheep is in front of you, he changes into a completely different person. while causing others to start thinking How biased will this genius be?

“Um, Atobe is angry at Yushi today. So I'm not in the mood to practice." Jiro replied with a smile on his face. In Bunta's eyes, that kind of behavior was nice! love! a lot!! But deep down, he began to have some feelings that made him feel uncomfortable. But he chose to ignore that feeling.

"Marui!! Come back to practice!!" Chis suddenly had a devil come and throw him, causing him to lose his temper. Sanada, Sanada, I really am with Yukimura's girlfriend all the time. How can you understand long-distance love like mine?'' Bunta thought as he pursed his lips slightly like someone who was upset. before turning and smiling at Jirou again.

“Then Jiro, go sit and rest first. I'll have to continue practicing. Please wait a bit. Then we'll...go on a date," Bunta said, whispering the last words softly into Jiro's ear. This made the little sheep's face light up and they rushed off somewhere. Bunta turned around and looked at his little sheep's expression with amusement. He was so cute and adorable. How could he not love him?

"You're in a good mood, Bunta." Nio, who received the title of 18 Crowns, walked over and hugged his little friend's neck. (//With Jiromarui-kun looking taller But when I met someone in the club who was small, I could see it _ ) in a very intimate way, attracting cruel eyes from Yagyu who stared very well. Until Nio had to immediately let go of Bunta's hand.

Even friends are jealous like this. What if you and the other person don't die side by side?

"Let's continue practicing!! You idiots!!" The fierce-faced vice-captain shouted, upset that the real guys were only playing with each other and couldn't practice together.

“Come on, don't be so stressed. You'll get old quickly, Genichiro^^" Yukimura, the sweet-faced captain of the Rikkai, said in amusement. He walked over and patted Bunta's shoulder reassuringly for being scolded. Along with sending a sweet smile that conceals cunning

"Then we can stop practicing today!!" A sweet voice announced, causing everyone to be stunned, especially the vice-captain. When he regained consciousness, everyone shouted with joy. But the devil came to interrupt again.

“No!!” Another powerful voice shouted as well. Immediately, the shouts of joy from a moment ago were completely silenced. Everyone's expressions instantly fell. Yukimura also started to pull a face, a little displeased at being offended. When Sanada noticed, he started to feel a little worried.

"Genichiro interrupted me?" Yukimura's expression changed from displeased to pleading. Squeeze the tears a little to show the other side's approval. This is a method he often does and it always works. This time too....

"No. But it's close to the competition and we should practice." Sanada explained, but he felt like he was wrong when the person in front of him started squeezing back tears from not knowing when he had put in the eye drops again.

"Genichiro, I just want to give everyone a break, that's all, can't I?" Yukimura made a startled sound, like he was about to cry. If other people acted like that, it would be if they weren't ordered to run around the field a hundred laps. I was ordered to stop doing activities altogether, eh!! True, if club activities were canceled it would mean that he would be able to spend more time with Jiro.

But if you were to act like that at Sanada, Would it be better to be ordered to run around the field or practice tripled?

"Alright...alright." In the end, Yukimura was the winner again. When everyone has a satisfactory answer, no! It was just Bunta who rushed to collect his things and leave Kord.

"Really fast" and this is everyone's voice in the chord.

"Hee hee hee, Marui-kun, you can say such embarrassing things with such a straight face." Jirou ran from Kord's place in front of the school gates, panting.

"Jiro!! Jiro!!" Bunta's voice came from far away. Jirou turned towards the voice and saw Bunta rushing forward. Then he quickly grabbed the little sheep's hand and ran out together. This time, it was Jiro's side who was confused.

“Wait a minute, Marui-kun, where are you going? Your clothes haven't changed,” Jirou asked without stopping the running and letting go of each other's hands.

"How about a date?" Bunta replied.

"So where are you going?" When he finished asking, they both immediately stopped. There wasn't even a response from Bunta. There was only a gasp from Jirou.

"So where should we go?"

"Don't answer...questions with...questions, haha," Jirou replied with a slightly broken voice but still enough for Bunta to understand.

"So Jiro, where do you want to go?" Bunta asked, turning to face Jiro, who was beginning to recover from his exhaustion and was breathing normally. The little sheep thought for a moment. before answering a question that made Bunta's face light up.

"If there's Marui-kun, it can be anywhere."

   "O//////O"

“What's wrong Marui-kun? Are you sick? Then I can go back first." Jiro said, standing worriedly close to Bunta. before gently placing his small hand on the other's forehead.

"No!!" Bunta shouted loudly before grabbing Jiro's hand tightly, as if if he let go the person in front of him might really disappear.

"I can't go anywhere," Bunta continued.

"Umm~ So where should we go? An amusement park. Yesterday I heard that Ryo and Jotaro went there. I'd like to go too." Jirou smiled cutely. While making people who saw him unable to help but smile. But suddenly a feeling of displeasure arose again.

"Again," Bunta muttered quietly alone. But even though I thought it was soft, the other party actually heard it. But it was still considered fortunate that Jiro couldn't hear clearly.

"What did you say just now?"

“Uh, no... Hey Jiro, please tell me the name of your starting team. Just like you normally call me." Bunta said, staring seriously at the little sheep's face. Until people are looked at in surprise

"Eh? It's fine. "Uh... there's Atobe, Yushi, Ryo, Jotaro, Kabachi, Gakuto, Hiyoshi. Why? Is there something wrong?"

Clearly...I understand now what has always made me feel annoyed.

On the other side, in the bushes, behind the wall, next to the electric pole, and on the roof (?), there were people who were observing the situation of Bunta and the little sheep by...

Bush Kirihara Akaya and Yanagi Renji

Behind the Wall Sanada Genichiro and Yukimura Seiji

On the roof, Nio Masaharu and Yagyu Hiroshi

Next to the electric pole, Jackal Kuwahara (//People without a partner are really lonely)

"Those guys aren't hot at all, Nee Yagyuu," Niow said, moving his hands to wrap around Yagyu's waist and bringing them closer together.

"You don't have to be so subtle, Niokun," Yagyu said, pinching the hand that held his own with a calm expression on his face, without taking his eyes off the couple. Neo gently rubbed his hand due to the pain before noticing that his lover wasn't paying attention to him at all. Nio felt a little annoyed and grabbed the other's face to make his eyes meet his own. Before moving his face closer until their lips were close together before slowly pulling away.

     "O//////O"

Yagyu, who was still speechless, could only stare at the other's face before turning away and not paying attention again. But this time, Nio could only smile at the cute behavior of the person next to him because his face was red all the way to his ears.

"Why are those guys flirting with each other instead?" Sanada said, sighing in disgust at the actions of his friends and crew. Unlike Yukimura who only smiled jokingly at Sanada's attitude.

"Let's just do them, Genichiro," Yukimura said, reaching out and clinging affectionately to Sanada's arm. Sanada was a little startled by his lover's reaction but didn't say anything. He reached out his hand and stroked his soft blue hair, not paying any attention to the pair he was secretly following.

“The seniors and the captain have already entered their own world. No one cares about Marui-senpai,” Akaya said somewhat lazily.

"Do you want to enter the private world, Akaya?" These words didn't come out of anyone's mouth, but it was 'Yanagi Renji' who said them. If it was normal, he wouldn't say such embarrassing things. This is definitely But when I'm with the child in front of me, These words were suddenly words that he could say without shame. Akaya was slightly stunned.

before suddenly turning red into the face of a gourd He immediately turned his head away, embarrassed. The viewer smiled a little fondly as he gently rubbed Akaya's head with his hand, and then the two of them disappeared into another private world.

"What are they doing here--''--"

Coming back to our main couple again, hehe.

Clearly...I understand now what has always made me feel annoyed.

"Why Marui-kun?" Jirou asked confused.

"This is Jiro," Bunta called out softly. The person who was called looked puzzled at the serious tone of the person in front of them.

"Hmm??"

"Please call my name."

“What is your name?” Jirou asked again. Bunta nodded lightly. He stared at his innocent-looking face without batting an eye.

"Marui-kun"

"Call me by first name, not last name." Jirou, who was still confused, became even more confused. But since the person in front of me wanted him to call me by name, it couldn't be helped. Thinking of this, Jirou purposely said Bunta's name. But when he opened his mouth to prepare to speak, he couldn't speak. Suddenly his face turned red and he could barely speak.

"B..Bun..Bun @/////@"

"Bun, what is it? Jiro^^" Bunta smiled a little at the expression of the person in front of him. His face lit up when his name was called because he wasn't used to being shy, making the little sheep look doubly adorable.

"Bun...Bunta-kun ~/////~" I almost fainted when I finished. Jirou stood there, gasping for breath, blushing. It's like running a marathon like that. Unlike Bunta who was smiling widely with happiness because it was the first time he heard the other person call his name. (Even if it's forced)

“Call again,” he urged again. But this time, the other party definitely wouldn't play along.

"No. I won't call anymore. I'll be right back>////<" After saying that, Jiro immediately walked away quickly. Bunta, who could only smile at Jiro's embarrassed expression, followed.

"Wait for me, Jirou~ ♡"

Plus~

At the same time, the person who was secretly watching the situation began to think along the lines of the conversation until they finally reached it.

"By the way...Genichiro doesn't call me by my name either," Yukimura began. In the blink of an eye, his sweet face became more serious. before turning to stare at Sanada expectantly, as if saying Please call me by my name.

“Come on, Yukimura. You know I'm not used to it," Sanada said, interrupting him before being met with a plea that was hard to deny. As soon as he finished, Yukimura's face immediately darkened. Sanada pretended to be flustered. before heaving a big sigh of relief

"K..Just this once." A sweet smile spread across her face as soon as the other party finished speaking. Sanada's face brightened slightly before turning away.

"S..Seiichi," Sanada called shyly. Yukimura immediately smiled before hugging the other person affectionately and pulling them out of the area and out together.

"Hmm~ It looks like things are going well for the two couples. And us, Akaya?" Yanagi said as if he was trying. No matter how stupid someone is, they must know what the other person means. The person being asked sat with a red face as if he didn't want to be here. I really want to escape from this situation that makes me hide my head in the ground.

"What is it, Senpai?" Akaya pretended not to notice, no matter how alarmed his tone sounded. Yanagi, who already knew that the other person was only pretending not to understand, couldn't help but feel the pleasure of teasing the small figure.

"Try calling my name, Akaya. For me to call you by your name alone like this is cheating.”

"What is it, Senpai? I already call you Yanagi-senpai." Akaya tried his best to avoid it. Until the other party had to switch to using hardwood instead. Even if it seems like a stupid way to do it. But when used on a small body, it looks like the cutest and most usable method.

"If I don't call you, I won't love you. But if you call me, I'll love you a lot more." Hearing this, the small figure's ears immediately perked up. Eyes sparkling with happiness before calling out the name of the lover intently Even though I'm embarrassed

"R..Renji-senpai! Renji! Ren...ji~ @/////@"

"oh? You're already crouching down? Never mind, you're really cute~Akaya." With that, he immediately carried the thin body out in a princess pose.

"Hey~Yagyu."

"No."

"I haven't said anything yet."

“Just Niokun opened his mouth. I already know my origins.” Yagyu blocked the path, knowing what the other party was going to say. But to have him say it? There's no way. It'd be embarrassing. Nio's face immediately turned sad (even though he was teasing), but someone who was both a lover and a partner, why wouldn't he know about this matter?

"Even using that method on me would be of no use, Niokun." Yagyuu adjusted his glasses slightly before standing up, preparing to descend from the roof of who knows what. Nio pursed his lips slightly at the sudden realization. But people like Nio Masaharu, whose pranks are number one. A second child like him would definitely not give up easily.

“Yagyu~Just once is good. Just this once.” Nio continued to try.

"No."

"Nio~~~"

"No."

     "TT O TT"

Keep trying, Neo. Keep fighting, don't give up.

Phew~~

"People without a partner are really lonely." And then there's the fate of people without a partner like Jackal-kun. Just keep standing and hiding behind the pillar......
