Tenipuri - Bumptious {Eiji, Fuji, Saeki}
So, I've been thinking about doing NaNo this year. mcnellism is writing 2k a day in order to prepare and I think this is a good idea. I... am no where near writing 2k a day obviously since this bit is just 200 words, but the important thing is to get used to writing every day again.
Prompt taken from my word-a-day calendar.
BUMPTIOUS
presumptuously, obtusely, and often noisily self-assertive
Eiji doesn't exactly hate Saeki.
It's just the way that Saeki stands next to Fuji like the past three years haven't happened and the way Fuji smiles and leans back like he doesn't care either way makes Eiji want to kick up a fuss.
Fuji is his best friend now and Eiji thinks that should count for something.
It does. And Fuji proves that by letting him work through Saeki's hold on him during the match and covering for him when the game runs longer than Eiji's hold over his own body.
The strategy they're hit with shows that Saeki knows Fuji in and out, especially when Saeki is completely unsurprised with the outcome. His grin is fond and his handshake lingering and Eiji laughs when he drags Fuji away because he's still telling himself that he won.
That night Eiji brushes his teeth extra hard and tells himself that Fuji isn't even really his doubles partner, so he should just stop thinking about it.
He doesn't.
