Rikkaidai Junior Department, Boys Tennis Courts
Phoebe can hear students whispering around her as she makes her way to the tennis court.
Tap. Tap. Tap.
Phoebe's green and silver racket skids across the floor as she backtracks her steps to the tennis courts.
Like everyone at the courts, Phoebe is in exercise clothing. Phoebe dons a short sleeved white shirt with black stripes running down the side, a knee-length black skirt with white trimmings, and a pair of white original designed tennis shoes. Yet unlike everyone, Phoebe carries on her back a large black tennis bag with green and white stripes, which the students there can guess, holds more than one racket.
Once there, Phoebe faces the direction of multiple flying tennis balls, and the annoyingly screaming fangirls clinging to the fence.
"Hey freshman!" exclaims a male student, who Phoebe guesses is a tennis club member. "What are you doing in the court? Only club members can enter, kid. If you want to give the regular something, then wait outside of the court like all the other fangirls."
"Um," Phoebe quietly mutters out. Phoebe didn't even know that she was inside the courts until the boy told her.
Unfortunately for the green eyes beauty, the boy didn't hear her and roughly pushed her out of the court. In a quick moment, the boy shoves Phoebe through the fence gate, making her stumble to the ground. Phoebe crashes to the ground as her racket bounces away from Phoebe. The said girl can feel countless eyes on her as they whisper about her, mostly criticism from the female population.
"Ha, serve her right. How dare she enter the courts without Yukimura-sama's permission?"
"Who does she think she is?"
"She got some guts walking in there like that."
"I can't believe her!"
"Newbie thinks she will get away with it!"
"Such a little brat!"
Slowly getting up, Phoebe reaches out for her racket next her when another hand already lifts her racket from Phoebe's grasp.
"Miss?" an unfamiliar voice to Phoebe calls out to the girl. "Are you alright?"
In the background, Phoebe can hear the students gasping in shock. Following the voice, Phoebe tilts her head up.
Standing in front of the freshman is a tall male at the height of 5'8 ft with purple hair and narrow face. A pair of reflecting reading glasses cover the said male's eye, shielding it from the people's view. The male dons Rikkai Dai regular tennis uniform.
"Miss?" the bespectacled boy questions as he offers the girl's hand.
Clap. Clap.
Phoebe slowly stands up after clapping, not taking the boy's hand and stares at him, "Yes?"
Around the pair, students are once again whispering how rude Phoebe was for not accepting the tennis player's assistance.
Snapping out of his own daze, the tennis player, who all except Phoebe know him as "The Gentleman" or Yagyuu Hiroshi, then asks politely, "Pardon me, but are you perhaps looking for someone in the tennis courts?"
"U-um," Phoebe fumbles, "In a sense, yes I am."
"Who might that person be?" Hiroshi continues.
