Chapter 3: Chapter 2



Chapter 2:

Finals ended. We won. I got a phone call from an excited Eijun after. I snapped a pick of the reward. I grinned. Now it's time for business, going to Seidou. I shook my head and packed my things thanking my parents and teammates I kept the reward. They said it was a thanks for being the best coach and Ace in the world. I smiled and pulled back my hair putting it into a hat. I packed my things and soon it was time to leave. I waved as I saw Nagano disappear as I sat in the cart quietly. I looked down at my hands I had a few bandages on them. The doctor said to rest them for a bit due to straining them. I huffed and just crossed my arms. 

I arrived at the station and looked at the map. Time to find Seidou. I walked mindlessly around Tokyo for a bit till I ended up at Seidou Schools. I tilted my head and entered the gates. I headed for the principal first Introducing myself and that I'm here for academics and hopefully for the baseball club. I managed to sign the papers and have my parents consent over the phone. Soon I was allowed on campus. In a dorm. Damn it. With other men. 

I walked slowly towards the dorms and opened the door. They were gone. At practice probably. It was very easy. I set my bags down and unpacked before I jogged towards where the practice area was. I grabbed my sports bag and slowly made it towards the coaches office. I knocked lightly. 

I entered with ease and bowed my head

"Head Coach assistant coach.. Rei-chan" 

I greeted lightly. I smiled noting the serious atmosphere.

"...who are you"

Coach Kotoka asked seriously.

" And why are you late"

I bowed my head lightly

" I just got here..I was still finishing my final game back at home and we won..so I'm here now..to request a try out for practice"

I said giving a light smirk

"..and your name"

"Y/n"

"Do you have the paperwork y/n" 

Asked the assistant coach. I don't remember his name 

" I turned it in to the head Principal."

I said nodded

" Alright then…be at practice later and introduce yourself" 

Coach confirmed serious before I nodded and left the room

I sighed in relief..that was..easy

I shook my head and slowly walked around campus deciding to get used to my surroundings. Before I made it back to the field. I had a small snack on the way. I tilted my head standing next to the coach watching Eijun run.

I shook my head, Introducing myself to those around

"My name is..y/n..I come from Nagano middle school I play all around but mostly catcher"

I bowed my head to those around me 

I glanced at Eijun as he heard me and he immediately brightened up. Most people thought I was a guy..due to my look..which was what I was aiming for but Eijun knew me.

I was told to stretch and practice and do testing. I nodded and began to stretch easily. Feeling small cracks. I felt eyes on me but I ignored it.

I watched some people bat. I tilted my head. I needed to stand in line right? A skills test..I assume. Though I guess it was just their practice instead. I watched Coach closely as he approached Eijun. Eijun. Covered himself but coach pitched towards the fence making it go high. He's a pitcher..I forget what team he was playing on. Was it this team?

I sweat drop as Eijun declared something. I glared hard and approached stealthily before smacking his head. He immediately fell forward as I crossed my arms I bowed to the coach

"I'm sorry Coach..this idiot…he was my pitcher from Nagano..I was his catcher. He's an idiot and forgot to apologize."

I immediately bowed his head down and huffed and muttered to him quietly

" Didn't I say not to cause trouble" 

Eijun dropped the ball and whimpered and gave me a look. I just grabbed the ball and hummed. I glanced at the fence and said softly

" Consider this an apology coach"

I nod my head and winded back feeling that familiarity within my form. I hummed in delight eager and soon the ball was thrown over the fence, a 4 seamer high riser.

I turned back to Eijun and glared giving Him a look as he apologized to the coach. I noticed a lot of people were in shock. I could see even Miyuki watching in shock.

"Let's go practice Baka. Follow your menu" 

I dragged Eijun along.

Soon enough it was after practice. I huffed as Eijun followed after me with puppy dog eyes.

" N/n"

He whispered whimpering like a dog giving me puppy dog eyes.

" I didn't mean to cause trouble..my roommates kept me up"

" You were supposed to follow the training menu I gave you idiot"

I scolded him while continuing to walk as he sighed and just followed after me

I began to lightly job as he jogs after me with wobbly legs. Soon enough we arrived at his dorm. We opened the door and I tilted my head immediately getting put in a head lock

"Your the new kid" 

I yelped as I was wrestled and roughed around.

I managed to get out of his hold and sighed in relief. I patted Eijun's shoulder and walked away. Deciding to retreat before I get hurt. I ended up arriving back at my dorm and my roommates weren't back. I sighed and closed my eyes, falling asleep. 

Though when I woke up it was time to practice. I hummed and got ready and arrived on the practice site. I watched 

Eijun closely and smiled softly.

Soon enough it was classes..they were boring and passed slowly. I decided to cut my hair making it very short hair cut to blend in with the guys I wore the uniform, a man's unform. it was a bit big. 

Though soon it was the end of the day. The first string had a game. I decided to just stay behind. For obvious reasons. I watched, amused, when Eijun was hit by a tire. I snorted and watched him practice. I wanted him to work on his core a lot more.

Though after an hour and half of pure running he collapsed out of breath. I jogged up to him, I felt sweat in all of the uncomfortable places. I shook my head and grabbed a water bottle I brought with me in my back pocket and poured the water on Eijun's head. I watched as steam went up. He seemed cooled off and smiled the frustration clearing away.

"N/n! Let me pitch to you" 

He said with excitement sitting up. I rose a brow

"Didn't the coach ban you?" 

I say while not exactly denying the request. He just puffed his cheeks and ran towards the storage rooms throwing around a few balls and swinging the bat even putting on a glove. I sighed and decided to roll with you. You won't get better if you don't continue. I grabbed a mitt. We walked out as Eijun cheerfully skipped to one side. I glanced around feeling eyes on us and I saw Fuyura..he's the one who Miyuki favors? Just..fast pitching?

He said while crossing his arms, his tone sounded mono-toned

"Y/n. Can I pitch to you?" 

He asked getting up, I could see a small aura coming from him. I tilted my head as Eijun gasped and cut in running up to him and I front of me

"No way! Y/n said..that.. he'd catch for me!" 

He huffed and crossed his arms. Jeez..when did you get so loud. I rolled my eyes as they got competitive. 

I walked up to them and said with an unamused look

"How about catch?" 

I suggested easing the tension 

Soon enough we were in a triangle and I caught all of the pitchers from both lightly as I threw it back easily. It was catch, not pitching. I could hit the mitt ten times harder if I pitched. It went counter clockwise and clockwise. Eijun seemed to be enjoying it quite well and his face just brightened when I caught his pitches..(why was he pitching anyway?)

Fuyura seemed to be enjoying it too..just not openly. His aim was.. definitely something.(A bad something) But I caught his pitches with ease. At first it left a burning feeling in my hand but I got used to it quickly. My mitt, when I caught his pitches, slowed the pitches down easily. It was small talk between all three of us until Fuyura pitched straight at Eijun's mitt, giving an insanely fast, fastball that knocked Eijun back. That had to sting.

I jogged to Eijun and pulled him up to his feet glancing at his hand and the mitt..I didn't want him hurt.. that'd suck. I sighed and Eijun looked very shocked. I slowly jogged back to my spot..the hell was that speed..I shook my head and the ball was tossed to my shakily by Eijun. I nodded slowly at him before turning to Fuyura..he did mention no one could really catch his pitches..besides..me..and probably Miyuki..I shook my head and adjusted my grip. I wonder if I..spooked him..how would he react..I smiled slightly and got into a pitching stance. I could feel it into my finger tips and made my scent of gravity go into my foot and fingers. The ball flew towards his glove right in the middle but he couldn't get a grasp on it and it fell straight down in front of him. I've been practicing baseball pitching…I've got..a lot down..so far..and my accuracy and speed increased..Fuyura looked shocked and shook it off and threw at Eijun again…this was where..Eijun met his rival.
