12 hours earlier…
"We're gonna take a vacation, Yukie. Going over to Martha's Vineyard." Amanda explained.
"Mhm, good." Yukie responded, not looking up at her… and Amanda saw the earbuds.
Amanda walked over, yanking Yukie's earbuds out.
"Will you please listen to me?!" Amanda responded.
"Don't yank my earbuds again or else. Matter of fact, go run off with him! I don't care!" Yukie replied angrily, before putting them back on before changing the song. "Basic bitch." She muttered.
Amanda had no idea what had gotten into Yukie lately… she at first suspected it was drugs but then reminded herself that she saw no signs of drug abuse.
Which had led her to think that Yukie hadn't been as okay with Amanda and Finn being together in a romantic sense as Yukie had led them to believe.
Amanda rolled her eyes before she wrote a note on the notepad in the room.
She put the cap back on the pen before she set it down and stormed out, slamming the door and walking down the hallway before walking into hers and Finn's room.
And Finn saw the look on her face.
"She wasn't listening, didn't seem to care when I yanked her earbuds out and told her where we're going… lets go." Amanda responded before they kissed.
"First few days we've had off in a while, let's spend them together happily." Finn replied before they grabbed their duffel bags and left…
Present time…
'Going on vacation with my boyfriend, don't bother looking for us since you didn't bother to listen.'
Yukie read the note over again… but the words didn't change and she picked up her phone and called Baron.
"Hey, Dollface." Baron greeted.
"Get a group together!" Yukie replied in a serious tone.
"Who ran off?" Baron asked, glancing at Seth after he and Ashley walked over.
"Mandy and Finn went on vacation, as Mandy put it in the note! Probably ran off to elope!" Yukie explained.
"They didn't tell you or you weren't listening?" Ashley asked once the phone was on speaker.
"I… might've ignored Mandy until she yanked my earbuds out and then I blew up at her." Yukie admitted.
"You are fucking unbelievable! Listen when she's trying to tell you something, Shirabuki. She and Finn are your friends." Ashley responded.
"I made a mistake, Hardy, people do that!" Yukie replied.
"Ash calm down, you are all moody today." Seth said.
"Jeez thanks asshole." Ashley muttered. "Me and Seth will find them."
Ashley hung up and looked to Baron.
"Okay. Find Akam, Rezar and Joe, bring them with us." Ashley responded.
"What about Yukie?" Baron asked.
"No way, she's the whole reason why we don't know where they are." Ashley said.
"Ashley, did Mandy ever talk about a favorite place to visit? A childhood vacation spot?" Seth asked, Ashley thinking.
"Pack your bags babe. I think I know where they are." Ashley said before they left.
The rental had crossed into the beach town line as Finn and Amanda looked at each other.
"Welcome to my first vacation place." Amanda replied with a smile.
"Nothing like home." Finn responded before they kissed.
"I wish Yukie had listened." Amanda replied.
"Maybe she'll come around. Did you tell Ash?" Finn responded.
"Just that we're taking a few days off. She knows when I need privacy." Amanda answered.
"That girl will fly into a panic because you didn't tell her. I wouldn't be too surprised if she's packing her bags right now." Finn said.
"She probably is… I just hope she takes it easy for the baby's sake." Amanda replied, Finn turning startled.
"Do her brothers know?" Finn asked.
"Yeah we all know. If you look very close you can see the start of the bump. But unless you know she's pregnant it will look like she's just put on a little bit of weight." Amanda explained.
"So that's why Seth had been acting different." Finn said.
"Protective… sorry I didn't tell you but I just found out yesterday." Amanda replied before they kissed.
"They wouldn't get mad at you because you told me?" Finn asked.
"Ash just told me I can tell you but if she said if you tell anyone else she'll gut you like a fish. They're want to keep it as quiet as possible for now." Amanda explained.
"Sounds like her." Finn replied.
"Yeah but in all honesty… I feel hurt that they waited til I was the last one they told." Amanda responded, Finn lightly rubbing his right hand on Amanda's left wrist.
"They would had to tell Matt and Jeff first, because they know Ashley that well that they will pick up quickly on new behaviour and changes." Finn said.
"True but I grew up with her, she and Yukie are basically my sisters… I just hate feeling left out." Amanda replied.
"And you're feeling shut out from Yukie's life…" Finn responded.
"I don't want that happening with Ash… I almost lost her before." Amanda replied.
"I'm sure they would have had a good reason to keep it from you." Finn said.
"I hope so." Amanda replied before they kissed and Finn slowed the speed of the car once they found the hotel.
Amanda heard her phone chime and looked, seeing a text from Ashley.
'We're coming to look for you. You got all of us worried sick about you.'
'Don't panic, we're okay. Martha's Vineyard, Harbor View Hotel… please call off the search party.' Amanda responded before she got out and her and Finn grabbed their things, locked up the car and headed into the hotel.
"She's not gonna call them off, is she?" Finn asked after they checked in and got into their room, Finn closing and locking the door.
"Why do you think that?" Amanda responded after they set their things aside and wrapped their arms around each other.
"I've absconded with her little sister for a few days of rest, sex and relaxation. Not necessarily in that order." Finn answered with a slight smirk at the end before they kissed and began to undress before Finn put her on the bed and grabbed a condom out of the bag before he put it on.
He lightly clipped his teeth along Amanda's neck and left collarbone, Amanda closing her eyes and mewling at the feeling as Finn had hiked Amanda's right leg up around his back to allow easier access thrusted himself into her.
In their rental car in Oakland, California, Ashley turned to Seth.
"Boom! I was right." Ashley said before showing her phone to Seth.
"What is it with Mandy and hotels with fireplaces?" Seth muttered.
"I don't know but that's beside the point. We found them now let's go on a holiday on our own." Ashley said.
"That does sound damn good." Seth responded before they kissed. "You getting hungry?" He asked.
"It's all good, I came prepared." Ashley said before opening a backpack full with snacks.
"Ooh, jalapeno kettle chips." Seth responded before Ashley playfully smacked his right hand. "I thought you brought those for me, you've never liked jalapeno chips."
"My appetite's gone weird, babe." Ashley responded.
Seth nodded and continued driving.
