"What was that, Mukahi-san? Is this your idea of a bad joke?" On their way to the tennis court where they lost to Seigaku, Hiyoshi was slightly annoyed by Gakuto's words. 

"Who said it's a joke?" Gakuto said to him, "I just said I like her, I know my feelings are more than a crush."

Hiyoshi usually couldn't care less for his senpai's words but Gakuto's words managed to piss him off, though his face doesn't show the irritated emotion. 

"If I were to make Sakura my own, that will Gekokujou you all so badly that you will all go home and cry to your mother..." Hiyoshi wasn't stupid; he has seen how the others would look at Ranfa, he can see the feelings for her in their eyes. How does he know that? Because he too has feelings for Ranfa too.

"You don't seem like the type to like someone..." 

"Sakura is likable because she is not annoying, you can learn a lot from her."

"You cheeky bastard! Stop indirectly using Ranfa to insult me!" 

"Also, don't ever think you are close to her just because you call her by her given name." 

"Ranfa doesn't mind it!" 

"That is because she really doesn't mind it, not because you mean something to her." 

"You..." 

Gakuto was about to say something to insult the slightly taller boy but he was disturbed by an awaken Jirou who was asleep on the bleacher. 

"I slept well... Hm?" He looked at his right to see both Hiyoshi and Gakuto, "What are you two doing here?"

"Why were you sleeping there?" Gakuto answered Jirou with a question, unable to understand why the magic volleyer chose to sleep here of all places.

"Huh? You are here." Choutarou came to the tennis court along with Shishido since they were at the church earlier.

"Ootori and Shishido-san..." Hiyoshi wondered if everyone here was thinking about the same thing.

It didn't take long until Oshitari arrived also. The Hyotei team were thinking about their loss back in the Kantou Tournament and they each have a flame of revenge to get back at Seigaku no matter what. Their pride has been shaken and now they have gotten stronger in order to return the favor in style. In order for them to grow away from their past pride and past glory, they have to defeat Seigaku! 

After they each talked about what they felt for Seigaku, Jirou decided to talk about something else that everyone was also thinking about... 

"I bet everyone here likes Ranfa-chan!" 

"What the fuck?!" Gakuto was blushing at Jirou's words; was it that obvious that he liked the manager too?! 

"Everyone...?" Choutarou was blushing also and he looked at Shishido to see him looking elsewhere with a shy look; can it be? His partner...

"Jirou, don't talk bullshit..." Shishido complained, "Don't say things that aren't true..." 

"You sure love to play tough, Shishido... Considering you have been thinking about it also." Oshitari was smirking at the fact that Jirou called out the other something they were all thinking about. Oshitari was certain that their captain also felt the same way for Ranfa. 

"I knew it." Hiyoshi knew his premonition was right all along; his team has feelings for the only girl he has come to like. 

"Jirou, how did you know?" Gakuto asked him. 

Jirou looked at Gakuto and he happily grinned, "I had a feeling! Hahaha~! Now that I confirmed it... It means I better make sure Ranfa-chan falls in love with me first!" He was rather enthusiastic about this and his face really showed it, "I like her so I hope she will like me also!"
