Swimming with.....

Ryuuji just nodded his head to show that he was listening to the things that the younger boy was saying. He's enjoying his time. He was able to play a little soccer, and he was able to meet Ai's older brother. Sure, he was met with a cold shoulder earlier, but right now, he feels very warm and welcomed. The younger boy really reminds him of himself somehow, and that's why he felt comfortable around him. Not that he wasn't comfortable around other people. It's just that, it was easy talking to the twins, despite the age gap and all. He was about to say something when he felt someone cover his eyes. Hands which were smaller than his own. He instantly knew who it was, and a smile broke into his face. "Welcome back Ai-chan." He greeted her before he removed her hands and turned around to face her. She had changed out of her wet clothes already, which is good. He didn't want her to catch cold and get sick after all.​
 
Ai removed her hands and flashed a smile at her senpai when he turned to her. "I'm back, Ryuuji-niisan, Onii-chan," she said. The young girl was glad to be out of her wet clothes and into comfortable clothes that enable her to move around. Now, what she wanted to do was play a bit of joke on her brother. He was a few feet from her and in a moment. She was doing back somersaults towards her brother and in the last step attempted to land a playful kick on her brother's head. Although, she knew he would be able to dodge it easily.
 
"Welcome back, Sis," he said smiling. He was glad that his sister was alright. After all, that silly girl couldn`t be defeated easily by a cold. Really, what a strong girl. Has a cold, ran around the castle half-naked to change and now back here. The thought of it makes Conan happy that he had such a sister. Thoughts like these were roaming around his mind. Result, he barely noticed Ai's kick that had almost hit him if he hadn`t blocked it with his right arm and pushed her feet back causing her to somersault forward. "Really, Ai. Can you do any better?" he said asking for a bit of challenge from his sister which he knew was going to be fun. He stood up and brushed off his clothes and waited.
 
Ryuuji watched as Ai did some somersaults in an attempt to probably, land a playful kick on his older twin. It's pretty funny really, the way that the twins greet each other. Him and his older sister were not like that. Alright, they were pretty much like that, though it was one sided. His older sister would jump to him the next time that she gets the opportunity to do so. Attacking him with a bear hug, which he's not really fond off. Specially if they are in front of other people. But then again, that's his sister. That's how she shows her affection to him. Be it a little embarrassing for him. He laughed at the younger boy's challenge. Surely, this would be fun then. He stayed rooted on his seat, just watching the scene which is about to unfold before him. ​
 
On her attempt, her kick was blocked and she was pushed forward causing her to do some more somersaults. "Mou! I expected a dodge and was completely surprised at that block, Onii-chan!" she said. It was not a complain really, it was like a comment. She charged at her brother and gave out a series of punches, high kicks, low kicks and a roundhouse kick. But, it was to no avail all punches and kicks have either been dodged or block, while she was having trouble defending herself. Ai dropped to the ground after her brother's low kick and received a punch in the stomach.
 
Conan smiled as her sister told him that she expected him to dodge instead of block the kick. "Well, why dodge it, when you can always block it?" he said quite teasing his sister. He watched every move of his sister when she charged him. He blocked and dodged every punch and kick her sister gave out. It was hard, especially her famous roundhouse kick, but he could manage. He let out a series of punches and kicks to distract his sister and he gave out a low kick that she could not dodge nor block. The kick lowered her defenses that enabled him to give her a punch in the stomach that sent her down to the ground. The young boy approached his sister and held out his hand, "Sorry for not holding back," he said sticking his tongue out in a playful way.
 
The scene before him was pretty interesting in Ryuuji's opinion. Surely, they were attacking each other, but it's just a friendly one, isn't it? Conan would never hurt his twin. That he was sure of. He had seen how jealous the younger boy was earlier. Showing just how protective he is towards his younger twin. Ryuuji just watched the twins fondly, like a father watching his children. No, scratch that. He's still way too young to have children. He's like a big brother figure watching his little siblings. Yes, that would be more appropriate than seeing him as their father. He's just three years older than them after all. Though it wouldn't hurt to have children just like them. Ryuuji shook his head, finding it a bit crazy to think about such stuff. He doesn't even have anyone that he admires yet. He sighed, laughing at how random his thinking is at the moment. He rested his chin on his hand. Enjoying the wind as well as the sight before him. However, when he saw Ai drop to the ground, out of reflex, Ryuuji quickly stood up. Quickly approaching the younger twin, worry visible in his eyes. "Daijoubou ka Ai-chan?"​
 
Ai clutching on to her stomach looked at her brother. "Hai, hai. You never hold back on anyone," she said as she grabbed onto her brother's hand and stood up. That punch hurt like hell, but she doesn't believe that her brother didn't hold back. It was probably about more than half his true strength but not the whole thing. After all, those who fought with her brother suffered far more greatly than she did. Ai was quite surprised when Ryuuji-niisan had approached her and asked her if she was alright. "Shinpai shinaide, watashi wa daijoubou," she said. The young girl was sure that her senpai was worried, "I'm used to losing to Onii-chan in Karate. Onii-chan's a Brown Belt, and I'm a Red Belt," she said trying to slowly revert the topic from the friendly "match" earlier.
 
"Are you sure?" Ryuuji was still worried despite the fact that Ai had already assured him that she was fine, and despite him knowing that Conan would never hurt his twin. He's still worried indeed. But he decided to drop the topic as he noticed that Ai was reverting his attention away from it already anyways. He'll believe her if she says that she's fine. "Alright then..." He said, patting the head of the younger girl before he sat back once more. Since he had been told that nothing harm has been done, he'll just choose to believe it. It was Ai who said it after all. And he trust Conan to not hurt her. He knew that he won't. "By the way Ai-chan, I told you before that I tried out for a position in Ravenclaw's quidditch team right? Luckily, I got it," He was really proud of this accomplishment of his, and he had promised the younger girl to tell her the news once he had confirmed it. He didn't really know when the next match would be, but if she's there, and Conan as well, then he's pretty sure that he'll be fine.​
 
Conan let out a slight laugh when his sister told him that he never holds back on anyone. "Baka! Well, that's because you'll never learn if I hold back," he explained. Well, of course, he didn't use his full strength. He would not hurt his own sister thoroughly. He used more than half of his strength, that's for sure. Conan turned to the boy who seemed really,really worried about his sister. "Gomen ne, for letting you see that, Tsukino-senpai," the young boy apologized. In a few moments the boy had heard the Ravenclaw tell Ai that he had gotten the position he tried out for. Conan shook the older boy's hand and said, "Congratulations. You deserve it, Senpai," the younger boy said.
 
Ai nodded in agreement to her senpai's statement. She was fine even if her stomach was still hurting. Her brother was right if he always held back on her, she wouldn't be able to learn much. Ai did remember Ryuuji-niisan telling her back then that he had tried out for a spot in the Quidditch Team, Keeper if she remembers right. The young girl almost squealed in delight that her senpai had gotten the spot that he wanted. "Oh my gosh! Congratulations, Ryuuji-niisan!" the young girl said as she shook her senpai's hand.
 
Ryuuji shook his hands in front of him when Conan apologize, as if waving the apology off. It was not his fault really, so there really was no need to apologize. Though yes, he had worried that Ai may have been hurt, he can't just get angry at Conan or blame him for that matter. Maybe this friendly matches were just normal for the twins, so he really had no rights to complain at all. "Don't worry Conan-kun, I'll probably get used to it soon." Since he figured that these twins are really like family to him, this things shouldn't faze him anymore. If it's just normal for the twins, then it would also be just normal to him. In fact, he shouldn't have been surprised at all, cause his sister loves to attack him too. Though not in the way that the twins do. Her sister would jump on him or just hug him out of the blue. And though he have quick reflexes, he couldn't bring himself to avoid his sister. He bowed a full ninety degree to show his appreciation when the twins congratulate him for making it to the team. Sure, being a keeper would be quite difficult. He din't want to burden his team after all. But he'll definitely try to be asset, he'll try to help his team win. "Arigatou Ai-chan, Conan-kun."​
 
Ai couldn't help but smile when her senpai said that he should get used to seeing her and her brother have friendly matches once in a while. "You're welcome, Nii-san. Gambatte ne!" she said cheerfully. "And, Nii-san should be careful, because if someone hurts Nii-san, they'll be seeing me in no time at all," she said cracking her knuckles. It was not a mean threat, not at all, just a friendly warning to not hurt her friend on purpose. But, she is never afraid to turn that into reality. Ai smiled at her senpai who she knew was happy for getting the position.
