Different from the rest

chapter 1

It's Monday currently and the second year's classes were about to start, the bell rang and all of the students went back to their seats, nothing was supposedly going to happen but today things in Shindou and Kirino's class started off a little bit different than usual. The teacher entered with another student behind him, this student had brown locks that formed swirls on both side of his head, a ponytail that held his back hair up and he looked significantly younger than all of them, Shindou and Kirino both recognised him very easily since they were teammates, though they were still quite confused as to why he was here, the rest of the students were murmuring about this new kid until the teacher told them to settle down, the said teacher wrote the name of the new kid on the blackboard and it read Matsukaze Tenma

"Now, would you please introduce yourself to the class, Matsukaze-kun." The said brunet smiled slightly at him and nodded politely

"Matsukaze Tenma, I'm 13 years old and I hope we get along." He said as he bowed at the last sentence

"Is there any questions you would like to ask?" The teacher said it directing it to the class, expecting at least one specific question to pop up, and it did. A boy raised his hand up for permission to speak and the teacher allowed him

"Isn't he younger than all of us? So shouldn't he be in the first year's class?"

"He is indeed younger than all of you, and technically he is a first year, but us teachers saw that he was above the level of an average first year and that he had much more potential in the second year's class." That left everyone flabbergasted because not every day you see a younger student that surpasses his own year's knowledge, some students doubted in his capabilities but at the same time it was the teachers who let him in the second year's class so he must be something at least. The teacher told Tenma to sit down in front of Kirino and class had started. During the lessons the teachers would occasionally call students to answer questions, and if the chosen student didn't know then the teacher would ask if anyone else knew the answer, most of the times no one else would even dare to raise their hands to give it a try, in fears of getting it wrong but Tenma was nothing like that he would straight up go for it, and he got everything right, every single question he had answered were all right without any flaws, that showed all of the students that he really did have what it takes to be in a superior class, maybe even higher.

After the lessons

"Hey Tenma, wanna go to the club together?" Asked the pink haired defender to the brunet who was packing his schoolbag

"Sure." Responded the brunet smiling softly at him and Shindou who was right beside Kirino. He finished packing and the trio were on their way to the soccer club.

Practice was gruelling because unfortunately today they had Kidou's hell training schedule - as they like to call it - so by the end of the day they were all dead tired, none of them could even stand except for one. Tenma was the only member of the team who was still capable of standing on his feet, not only that, he didn't even look half as bad as the rest, sure he was panting and sweating but he wasn't gobbling down air and sweating bullets like his teammates. While they were all either lying or sitting on the grass, Tenma drank a bit of water first and then he went to change, the rest couldn't even move their pinky fingers.

After some time the team finally got up on their feet and started walking to the changing room, when they began walking they saw that the brunet was already done and was heading back home, he looked completely normal this time, he wasn't panting anymore and he didn't have a drop of sweat anywhere on his face, all of the teammates were in total awe as to how he could look so normal after one hell of a training day and most of them showed it on their faces, but some of them kept their cool and collective figure despite also being shocked.

Tenma went out of the school gate and immediately saw a familiar black car in front of him with a man leaning against it, he didn't say anything and went to the other side of the car, opened the door, sat on the front seat and locked his seat belt, the man opened the door he was leaning against, sat on the driver's seat and also did the same as the brunet. He started driving towards their home, they were silent for most of their way, the brunet was looking out the window while the man was driving

"So, how did Kidou-san's training schedule go, little brother." The man suddenly said in an almost teasing tone, the brunet looked over to him and instead of answering he asked

"How did you know, nii-san?" His older brother chuckled and said

"I'll give you one hint, your teammates." At first the younger one didn't exactly know what he meant, cause all of his teammates were pretty much dead on the grass so none of them could have gone and told him, not that any of them even knew him in the first place, but then his thoughts clicked

"Oh, their grumblings, protests, cursing and heavy breathing, right?" Reo smiled slightly still looking in front of him

"Clever as always, Tenma." The brunet snorted at that comment

"They were quite loud to be honest." He admitted "Kidou-san's training schedule is no big deal for me, but as for them... It's about as close to hell as they can get." The older brother chuckled amused at that last part

"I would have to agree with you on that." He said in between laughs, Tenma smirked proudly and before they knew it, they were in front of their house.

Reo drived the car in and once parked both of them got out pretty much at the same time. They went in their house; Reo is the CEO of a successful company so most people would imagine a mansion full of maids and butlers, but that wasn't  the case. Both Reo and Tenma didn't like the idea of having people working for them in their own household, so they lived in a house which is still relatively big for just two people which has a backyard, a swimming pool and two floors. Once they went in, they took off their shoes and put on their slippers, after that they both went upstairs to their room to change into more comfy clothes. Tenma was dressed in a white and red hoodie with stretchy workout pants and Reo was dressed in a white shirt with simple black pants, Tenma was doing his homework which didn't take all that long cause it was too easy for him while Reo was doing his own work as a CEO, when Tenma finished his homework he didn't know what to do, he also didn't wanna bother his brother so he ended up listening to music while playing games.

After some time, Tenma decided to check on the time and it marked 19:16 so he went down to the kitchen and started cooking dinner for him and his brother who was still working. When he was done with the meals he prepared an aromatic drink for his brother, one that always manages to brush away his stress and exhaustion, then just when he was done with everything his brother came down and they ate together

"You know I kinda feel bad that you're the one who does most of the chores in this house." His brother commented out of the blue, Tenma snorted at that and taunted

"It's not my fault that you're so caught up in your own work that you didn't learn anything else."

"Hey!" Reo pouted, not happy with that reply, Tenma just laughed it off and Reo also started laughing too.
