Makeup Mystery
Eyeshield 21 ficlet I wrote a couple years ago, reposted from ff.net.
Sena and Monta are in the clubhouse, rushing through getting ready for practice-everyone else is already out on the field. As Sena is lacing up his cleats, he notices a small black tube on the floor by the lockers. Curious, he picks it up and reads the label.
"Whatcha got there?" Monta inquires, peering over his shoulder.
"It says it's kohl eyeliner," Sena says.
"Makeup? That's girly stuff. It must be Mamori's. Hey, Mamori!"
"What is it?" Mamori appears in the doorway.
"I found this eyeliner on the ground," Sena says, holding it out. "Is it yours?" Mamori comes closer and looks at the tube.
"Nope," she says. "I've never seen that before."
"Maybe it's Suzuna's, then?" Monta says.
"I don't think so," Mamori replies. "I've never seen her wear any. Mascara, yes, but…"
"DAMN PIPSQUEAKS!" All of them jump at the sudden yell. Sena drops the eyeliner on the floor as Hiruma comes stomping into the clubhouse.
"Why aren't you on the field already?" Hiruma demands, brandishing an AK-47 in their direction. Sena and Monta nearly trip over each other in their haste to get out the door. Mamori throws a glare in the captain's direction, then goes after them. Hiruma starts to follow them out as well, but something catches his attention.
"How'd that get all the way over here?" he mutters, then picks up the eyeliner, shoves it into his schoolbag, and marches out of the clubhouse towards the practice field.
