Tennis no Oujisama © Konomi Takeshi, Shuheisha, Inc.
Being expected to look good in everything he did, Keigo spent his entire life trying many things, at least being good in it if not mastering it. Of all things he tried, he was only interested in fencing, ballroom dance, and tennis out of everything. And being a gentleman, he would never challenge a woman, and especially not his queen. But it was an entirely different story if she was the one who challenged him.
Did she even realise how sexy that was?
He was the one who taught her tennis after the longest time she didn't play, Keigo knew what she was capable of. But not even his Insight could tell that when she said a match, it wasn't tennis.
"Best of luck, Hikari-chan!" said the Seigaku lots to her.
"I'm worried. Will she be okay?" was what Takashi said until Eiji put a racket in his hand. "DORYAA! BURNING! YOU CAN'T LOSE TO HIM, HIKARI-CHAN! BEAT HIM WITH ALL YOUR MIGHT, BABY!!"
How dare he called his queen 'baby'...
Keigo warmed up his wrist by swaying the striker in his hand as she did the same, glaring at him in the most intimidating way that only made him fall even deeper into her.
"Air hockey, ahn?" It was the very first time he ever visited a game centre. Truthfully, it wasn't the kind of atmosphere he'd like with the mixture of all kinds of chimes and jingles filling the place in the most annoying way. His teammates, of course, were beyond happy to be there, especially Jirō and Gakuto who immediately played claw machines and racing arcades.
"I'm not crazy enough to challenge a national-level player like you in tennis." The movement of her hand was so smooth as if it was dancing instead of warming up, making him want to kiss that tiny wrist of her. "Does Your Highness need some tutorial?" she mockingly asked while raising an eyebrow.
"I've played this once before." He readied his position while placing his hand in between his eyes. "Give me your all, my queen..."
"I'm not your queen!" Keigo stood rooted in his position when her striker hit the puck in a flash and got into his slot as if the lightning just struck him. Keigo glanced down to see the puck appeared in his slot, waiting for him to take it.
