As I walk out I hear the chants "HAKUROU" and "TENNOJI" bouncing around. Just as I was about to take off my jacket and bracelet I heard one cheer I didn't think I would "SHIDO".

I turned around and saw Lexi standing with Saki and the rest of Hakurou. My heart jumped a beat.

What was Lexi doing back? She should be in Australia still.

Tennoji's POV

I walked over to where she stood.
"I didn't think you would make it", I smiled at her as my heart beat with joy. She leant forwards and placed her forehead against mine.
"Of course I would make it" she whispered "I couldn't miss you becoming a champion and before you asked, yes we won too".
I pulled away from Lexi and she placed a kiss on my forehead.

"Awwww" I heard the crowd around us sigh. "Now show them who the champion of the sumo ring is" she smiled.
I couldn't help but chuckle, "Dinner afterwards?" I asked.
"Sushi. My treat" she smiled.

I turned and walked to the ring with the feeling that I will not lose.

Lexi's POV

Australia is a wonderful, hot location with many surfer boys. Hello hot bodies. Very nice looking, but not as good as my Shido's.

It was quite easy to get adjusted to the new surroundings and both Sky and I had to be smothered in sun cream to stop any sun burn. The pains of not being able to tan.

So the tournament commenced. It was a low level international one between some countries. It was good to test out some newbies on the team and new techniques. The days flew by and the finals were this afternoon.

Every night, I would call or text Shido as there was only one hour time difference and I could tell he was nervous. This was a big step for him in his sumo career, which he cannot afford to miss out on.

After we had been declared the winners, I sprinted to the hotel to pack. If I made a flight within the next few hours, then I could make it for the afternoon and the finals of the All Japan the next day.

Sky and the others helped me get on the flight and my dad picked me up when I landed back in Japan. We went to the hotel for the sumo competition and luckily Kayla and Saki made sure to leave a spare key for Shido's room at the reception. After cleaning myself up, I headed to the venue with my dad, which was only 2 minutes away and met Saki at the entrance.

"Come on Lexi-chan. They're just about to call for the final bout" she shouted before turning around and leading the way. We made it just in time for Shido to appear from the warm up area and the crowd were cheering

He looks calm and focused. Good.

Saki pulled me down to the stands where the rest of the Hakurou team were by the ring side and pushed me to the front by the railing.

As he walked pass, I cheered "SHIDO". I saw him turn and face me. Oops, didn't think I was that loud or that he could pick up that it was me.

The smile that spread across his face was worth the sleep deprivation. Shido walked over to where I was standing and smiled up at me. "I didn't think you would make it" he said. I leant forwards and placed my forehead against his as this our lucky charm. "Of course I would make it. I couldn't miss you being a champion and before you asked, yes we won too". I whispered. As Shido pulled away, I kissed his forehead.

"Awwww" I heard the crowd around us and I also heard Kayla squeal nearby. "Now show them who the champion of the sumo ring is". I commanded.
"Dinner afterwards?" he asked. I'm definitely going to treat my man, "Sushi. My treat".
He nodded before turning towards the ring and I was positive that he would walk away victorious.
