If Only

Thirty

After Ezra and Riku's little moment, Riku goes to the boys locker room to shower up and change clothes. Thankfully, Zhang always keeps extra clothes in his locker for unfortunate events as he calls them. After Riku leaves the shower, however, he is bombarded by someone he least expected to be inside the locker room with him.

"What the hell are you doing in here? I know you're very familiar being inside of the boys' locker room but I am not interested in joining your list of 'accomplishments'. So, get the HELL out!!" he snaps at the smirking individual.

The person smirks, "Okay. Sure. I'll just make my way to Vice Principle Samui's office and tell her about the oh so glorious site of two of our school's top students and one of our most promising and talent athletes having ape-like sex in the weight room."

Riku's eyes widen. "H-how...??"

"Maybe you should check all of your surroundings next time. Oh and by the way, from what I saw, you have an awesome stroke game. Kinda makes me a bit curious." the person says approaching him.

Riku slaps their hand away. "This body belongs to Ezra and Ezra only tramp. And what do you want?"

The orange haired beauty smirks, "I want my Shouyu back."

Riku laughs, "Well, good luck with that. He's with Amari now. And from what I've seen, I don't think they're going to end their relationship. For anything. Ever."

Kaira grins evilly, "That's where you come in."

Riku's eyes widen and he gulps deeply.

"What do you mean?"

Kaira explains her plan to Riku.

After the group breaks out of their classes and head to lunch, Jai stops by the school's gift shop. Coach Moegi sees him and smiles. "Hello there Mr Novani. I'm surprised to see you here and not in the cafeteria with your friends causing the usual disturbance."

Jai grins, "We're not that bad. But I came to pick up something for a friend of mine. Today is her birthday and my sister ordered her something that was supposedly delivered here instead of her house."

Moegi laughs as she and Jai say together, "Typical Reina."

Moegi goes to the back to help the clerk find the gift Reina ordered for Ezra. While waiting, he sees Keiri walking with a few of the cheerleaders hanging up flyers and banners for the upcoming homecoming game and dance. One of the girls spot him and he hurriedly turns his head making it seem as if he wasn't looking their way.

A shadow looms over him and he hears a familiar voice, "Sooooooo....watcha here for Novani?"

He looks up into the amber eyes of the one and only,

"I-izzy? H-hey. Why aren't you in the cafeteria?" he asks in panic knowing that Moegi could be back any moment with the gift Reina got for her. Izzy scowls, "Nevermind that. Why were you and Shouyu spying on me and Riku earlier? Do you idiots not know what the hell privacy is?"

Jai smirks, "Oh yeah. You guys were VERY private. You two were so private that you should be in the military."

Ezra blushes furiously and stutters, "T-thats n-n-n-not f-funny."

Keiri comes in and sees her caramel skinned friend hiding an embarrassed blush and looks at a laughing Jai. "Jai. Are you teasing Izzy from her little altercation with Riku earlier?" Jai stops laughing and scratches the back of his head. "Just a little. Hehe."

She high fives him, "Good. Slide over so I can help."

Ezra glares at the two before storming out of the room embarrassed.
