Oh my!" Saeko said, surprised, " And I was supposed to be the one giving you a gift." Give me any gift in the world and it wouldn't matter as much as my debt to my sister. The least I could do was give her a doll and my blessing for a bright, successful future.

"Don't stress about it Nee-san. After all, ain't it Hinamatsuri?", I said to her, " And mom and dad don't frequently visit anymore and I couldn't help but think how lonely it would be if anyone wasn't there for me on a special occasion." I started feeling depressed with the idea of anyone suffering from the fate I had thought of but then Saeko's heavy body feel on me and dragged me to the floor, " My Tanaka! You have grown to a beautiful man haven't you?" She asked as she happily cried.

" Let..me..go!" I said struggling to free myself from her grasp. It's like she's like a mother bear tending her child... I didn't like the idea of being her child and quickly started vigorously squirm in her arms. " I'm gonna be late Nee-san! Let me go!" I said, agitated. " Alright, Alright, Go, " she said, " Wait! I have a gift for you." She ran upstairs and just as fast she left she returned with a mysterious bag.

She really didn't have to. I thought to myself as she came closer to my way. " Here!", she said as she shoved the bag to my right hand. I hesitantly took her gift as she continued, " I hope you like it as much I do, Ryu." My hand opened the bag to see what she had gotten me. I was sure she was gonna get me the SJ monthly copy I forgot to get yesterday and few other junks. " What the hell is this Saeko?" I asked her as my face had transformed into a red mess. I looked at her, then the bag, and looked at her again. "Hurry to school Ryu!", she said with a wide smile planted on her face.
" You're gonna be late," I responded to her with an awkward nod and grabbed my bag. As I opened the door, I looked directly at her and pointed in her direction, " I-i-i want an explanation later." I said and closed the door now facing the blue sky with a few specs of gray spread everywhere.

A/N: IT'S TOO GLOOMY AND GRAY HERE

Timeskip provided by Clouds. Now can you please leave?

" Tanaka?" A sweet voice rang in my ear as I started to leave my classroom,

" Oh, Chikara! What's up?" I asked fully knowing that the Volleyball team had been planning something for my birthday. Ennoshita looked at me with a very noticeable blush on his face. " Tanaka!", Ennoshita complained,
"We're out in the public." Ennoshita had told me he wasn't ready to publicly come out to our school or our everyday surroundings. " Sorry, Ennoshita, " I said, quietly, " I forgot." Ennoshita sighed before he began speaking again, " Anyway Daichi wants us to meet at the gym." I went along with their plan and I asked, " But didn't Daichi ask for us not to practice because of our practice match with Seijoh?" Ennoshita cringed at my question but tried to work along with it. " I think it's for telling us what's gonna happen later and extra information we need to know." He said, first confused and finished assured. " Okay then, let's go!" I yelled as I thought of a party held for me but was easily interrupted by Ennoshita. " Um... Tanaka?" He asked, nervously, " What's inside the bag you're holding."

Huh, what bag? I thought as I looked at my left hand which resulted in nothing, then my right which left me confused.
Shit! I brought Nee-san's gift with me. I thought and tried to slide it away from Ennoshita's view, " Aah i-it's nothing, n-nothing at all." I said, attempting to shrug off the topic. " Did you read the SJ that came out yesterday Ennoshita? I really wanted to read it but I forgot to go and buy it. I was really hyped about this one because of the latest chapter of Bakuman."
" Yeah, I read it. I can lead you my copy since I brought it with me today."
" Really? Thank you Ennoshita!" I said,
" Wa-hoo we made it to the gym!" I opened the slide doors preparing myself to run to the locker rooms when I was stopped by the sound of confetti popping.

" Happy Birthday Tanaka!" My teammates yelled but it was easy to identify the loudest of them. A warm feeling rushed over me as I saw the streamers that fell from the roof and landing to where my friends had stood.
"You guys! I'm touched that you would do all of this for me!" I said, excitedly, I ran towards them and leaped to hug them all at once (if that was possible) and we all fell on the shining floor expect Tsukishima who moved away from everyone as quickly as he saw my motives. " Dammit, Tsukishima why do you always run away?" I yelled at him as I still laid on top of Kageyama and Suga. " T-T-Tanaka we can't breath!" Suga struggled to say. I glimpsed at the suffering boys once more and immediately got off them, "Sorry, sorry!" I said and glared at Tsukishima who had a glint of victory shown in his eyes.

Bastard

" Alright, everyone!",Daichi said, loudly,
" We need to clean this mess up because we can't stay here too long. Today's cleaners are Ennoshita and Narita." Everyone else is excused to leave at this moment. We have practice tomorrow so don't forget to attend."

" Yes!" Everyone yelled before everyone started leaving. I ran to the storage room where Narita had been along with Ennoshita,
" Narita can we switch cleaning schedules for today?" I asked Narita, politely, " You can take mine for this week." Narita looked at me confused and asked,

" Didn't you already do this week?"
" I did which means you don't have to do anything for this week. What do you say?" I offered. I already knew he would accept my offer. " Sure but I'll take one of your days next week." We shook on it and he was gone in a matter of minutes. I took a glimpse at Ennoshita and knew he seemed more nervous than usual. I placed my hand on Ennoshita's shoulder which caused him to flinch and push me away from him, " Are you okay?" I asked him. He turned around and began to nod his head, " No, No I'm not." He said, " I didn't know what to get you for your birthday."
" Enno," I said slowly reaching towards him like he was a fragile flower.
" I must be a disappointment as a boyfriend." He said to me as he turned with a frown on his face. " Chikara you aren't a disappointment, " I said, " Just being near your presence is the best gift I could ask for." Ennoshita looked at me again but with a different expression from previously. A shining smile had found its place on his face. Why does he have to be so cute I thought as I hugged him tightly. " Are you sure there isn't anything you want me to do for your birthday, Tanaka?" He asked, What should he do... be my slave? No... I thought to myself Saeko's gift!

" Enno, there is something I do want you to do for me," I told Ennoshita which brightened he face. " Really? What is it?" He asked, impatiently. " I want you to look at what I got in the bag I was holding today." Ennoshita looked as if he was an odd entity and hesitantly accepted Tanaka's task. He grabbed the bag from the floor and looked into the bag.
Color immediately erased from his face as he saw what inside, " What the hell is this." He said as he took the object from inside the bag.
He presented me the female kimono and accessories that went with the outfit, " I want you to wear them for me one day, " Tanaka said as he proudly looked at the dress, " That would be the greatest gift ever." Ennoshita ran to Tanaka and playfully began to hit him, " Stupid, Stupid, I'll never do such a task!"
" But then you'll never make it up to me," Tanaka said as he pretended to be depressed.
" I Hate You!" Ennoshita said to Tanaka as he hugged him. " I Love You," Tanaka said to Ennoshita and hugged him back.

Meanwhile, in Two Different Universes

Code Geass

"Happy Birthday, Tamaki!" The Black Knights cheered as Tamaki bluntly started to talk about how they wouldn't do this for anyone else besides him. " Don't push your luck, Tamaki," Kallen said to him. The electronic door began to slide open to reveal Zero behind the door,

" Zero?, Zero?" A few people said as they looked at him with awe.

" I overheard it was your birthday Tamaki, " the echoed voice said, "Happy Birthday Tamaki." Tamari started to bawl as he heard those words from who he believed was his Birthday and leaped in Zero's arms, " See I told you guys we were best friends, " he said, " Thank you Zero!" He sneakily placed his hands on Zero's mask and had tried to yank it off,

" What are you doing Tamaki!" Ohgi and Kallen yelled as they pulled Tamaki off Zero and moved him away from the shocked boy.
" Zero!" Tamaki yelled as Kallen and Ohgi moved him away from Zero.

Love Stage

Ryouma and Izumi were laying down on the couch together as they watched the film Solanin together when Ryouma broke the silence, " Happy Birthday Izumi." and he gave him a kiss on the cheeks. Izumi would have normally been flushed by his sudden action.

" Ryouma?" Izumi asked Ryouma, " Yes Angel?" He said to the small boy, " How did you know today was my birthday if I didn't tell you when it was?" Ryouma felt sweat drop down his neck.
