Prince of Tennis, Snow Tennis

Title: Snow Tennis [Oishi/Eiji]
Rating/Warnings: G for how cute Eiji is.
Summary: Well obviously Eiji isn’t coming in just because of a little snow.
A/N: Written to entertain sarinthesky in a comment post. I can’t find the original post, but I think I wrote this really early in my PoT career. I THINK this was a thank you for her mailing me trading cards, so I used the date she put a post up about that.

Snow Tennis

Kikumaru Eiji braced his feet and watched the sphere coming towards him, tongue sticking out of the corner of his mouth in concentration. The ball had developed a bit of a wobble, but it couldn’t fool Eiji’s keen eyes, and he slid one foot back and took aim. At the optimal moment, he slammed his racket forward and connected.
