The Assistant Coach's Daughter.....

Hikari Fate......

Hikari sighed as she walked through school…her grades were top notch so her teachers had let her go to a free period. As Hikari was walking she decided to head to her room. When she made it to her room she decided to get a book and head to the library. She found her book, but when she pulled it off the shelf another book fell with it. She looked at it and noticed that it was an old photo album. She sat in the floor and opened it. The first picture was of her and her mother. The next one was her and her grandfather, then as she turned the page she saw that it was a picture of her and Nanami when they were five. Hikari was wearing a red sox cap turned backwards, her hair in ponytails, she had on a red sox jersey, with some khaki shorts. Nanami had her hair pulled into a pony tail with a ribbon, she finished her look with a blue dress. Hikari had her arm around her friend and both girls were holding up peace signs. Hikari turned the page and saw another picture of Nanami and Her...(picture in the side). Hikari remember this, this was when her mother had told Hikari they were going to the movies instead of a baseball game.

‘Man I was such a tomboy.’ Hikari thought

Hikari turned the page and smiled when she saw that it was a picture from her mom’s first day at Seidou.

‘Man she looked so young then.’ Hikari thought

Hikari turned the page to see that it was a picture of her and Coach….Hikari would admit it to anyone that Coach Kataoka was like her father. Hikari then turned the page and saw that it was a picture of her and the club sponsor. She flipped through the pages until she saw a picture of her and a younger Tetsuya Yuki.

‘He looked so stiff here.’ Hikari giggled

Hikari turned the page to see her and Ryosuke. Both were smiling in the photo and had their fingers together like they were a gun. The next picture was of her and Masuko sitting under a tree eating pudding. She looked at the picture to see it be her and Ryosuke running from Jun. Hikari laughed then turned the page to see that it was her and Chris. Chris had his hand on Hikari’s head. Hikari turned the page and saw that it was a picture of her and Tanba. Tanba was towering over Hikari with his usual smirk, while Hikari had her cheeks puffed out and she was staring at the ace. In the next picture was Hikari and Kuramochi watching wrestling. Hikari giggled at their spaced out faces. As she turned the page she was surprised to see that it was a picture of her and Miyuki. Hikari had on Miyuki’s sports glasses and Miyuki’s hat, while the boy was wearing his normal glasses. Hikari turned the page a couple of pages then she realized they were all blank…

“I need to take pictures of the guys….I also need to add pictures of Ichigo and Sakura….Also I need to get pictures of Furuya, Haruichi, and Eijun.”Hikari said

Hikari looked at the clock then she realized that she had to be back in class. She got up and placed the photo album on her bed and headed back to class.

It was later that night when Hikari and coach were running. Hikari wasn’t allowed to her running during the morning in case she ran into one of the regulars…While they were running there was no talking between the two. Hikari realized to herself that coach was probably thinking about boot camp (or how she called it). She also guessed that she was thinking about the two second stringers that would get to move up to be in the regulars. Hikari hoped the two second stringers he was thinking about was none other than boys by the name of Eijun and Haruichi. The two were deep in their thoughts, but soon there thoughts were interrupted by a loud banging noise. The two stopped running and looked. They stopped running and came out of their thoughts to see Eijun on the field throwing balls against the wall. The two walked down to where Eijun was to see him whipping off his sweat then they heard him say:
