DISCLAIMER: I do not own the Prince of Tennis and never will.
Valentine Chocolate
Chapter Summary: Confused, she didn't know what his words meant and now it was her time to return the favor. The problem was, he wasn't the only one to be receiving it.
"You have to unlock the giver's heart."
Sakuno could still remember what the tennis prodigy said after he kissed her on the cheek. What he did was something unexpected. She wasn't really expecting him giving her a necklace at all. It was a Valentine key as he told her.
Ryoma was actually giving her a test, a mission that she had to do during or on White Day. The question was, how was she going to unlock the giver's heart? It was like a puzzle and she needed to solve it before proceeding to the other level.
She didn't know how.
Her thoughts were cut when someone suddenly glomp at her from behind. She almost shrieked due to shock if it wasn't for the voice that she heard;
"You are so lucky, Sakuno. You did get a present from him after all."
Calming down, she turned around so that she could face her 'attacker', "Mou, Tomo-chan. Well, you got yours too."
"Still, I didn't get one from Ryoma-sama."
Sakuno sighed as she fidgeted with her skirt, "He gave me an assignment though."
Tomoka stared at her, frowning, "What assignment?"
"'You must unlock the giver's heart.' That's what he said when he gave me this key." She said playing with the key which was hanging to her neck.
"That's easy," Tomoka said, "You have to answer his confession. I can't believe that you didn't know about that."
"W-what do you mean?" She looked at her frowning in the process.
"He just expressed his love to you, dummy," Tomoka said as if she was proud of declaring her logic, "All you have to do is to reply to that."
Her face blushed a hundred folds when she said that, "T-that's impossible! T-there's no way he feels that way about me. There's just no way."
"Well, duh, Why do you think he gave you that in the first place?" Her best friend almost rolled her eyes due to her denseness.
"W-we'll… I…" Looking around, she thought of words what to say. Why would he be giving her a key on Valentines day? That what was she needed to find yet.
"See you can't even think of the words," She gave her a shock when Tomoka gave her another glomp and whispered, "Give him your honmei chocolate this time."
Her blush intensified when she suggested that, "I—I don't know, Tomo-chan. I've never given him like that."
"That's why this is your chance to do it," Tomoka said pinching her cheek this time, "You have to unlock his heart so that he can give it to you."
"Tomo-chan!" Her best friend's words were too much for her to handle. If she wouldn't stop, she might have collapsed on the ground. It was true that she admired the tennis prodigy for long. She just didn't expect that he would notice her one day… let alone on Valentines day.
"There's nothing wrong about trying it," Tomoka continued letting go of her cheek which she was rubbing immediately, "On White day, give honmei chocolates to him. Let's do the Taiwanese way." She gave her a wink before walking ahead of her.
