The departure date after school
At certain high school in Academy City. Touma's classmates were chatting about their plans for Golden week while packing their belongings. Touma, oblivious to the noise, was also hurriedly packing his bag. He had to get to the airport and was in a rush. Komoe-sensei approached him. "Have fun in Okinawa with your family Kamijou-san," she said with her happy voice.
"Thanks Komoe-sensei," he said, "but I better get going now, I don't want to be late for my flight."
Aogami overheard their conversation and gave him a death glare as he ran out the door. "Damn you, Kami-yan, you get to go to Okinawa and see all the women in bikinis," he murmured. Aogami gave Touma one last glare before he returned his attention to the classroom.
Touma was running to his dorm at full speed when he felt a chill run down his spine. "What the hell is this feeling?" he thought, but soon let it go as he didn't want to be late. He was almost at his dorm when he turned a corner and crashed into something. As he stumbled, he caught a glimpse of a Tokewadai uniform. Stopping, he turned back to the girl, "I'm sorry, are you alright?" Touma asked as he helped her get up.
As the girl stood up their eyes met and went wide. For Touma, there was no mistaking those long twin tails; he knew exactly who he had run into. He cursed his luck.
"What are you doing you BARBARIAN?" Kuroko scolded. She had picked up her metal spikes and appeared ready to teleport them inside his body.
"I'm sorry Shirai-san, but I'm kind of hurry right now," Touma quickly responded, hoping to avoid any trouble.
"Don't tell me, you're rushing to see onee-sama? It really doesn't matter though, because she is leaving Academy City on vacation with her family today, so there's no point rushing to see her, you ape man," she said as she mocked Touma.
"Firstly, I'm not rushing to see Misaka, and secondly, I'm also leaving Academy City for Golden week, so see ya," Touma replied, annoyed. Then, before Kuroko could say anything, he took off running again.
"I see, so he is leaving too" she mumbled happily to herself. Then, she realized something. "WHAT! THEY ARE BOTH LEAVING ACADEMY CITY! DON'T TELL ME THEYARE GOING TOGETHER!" Kuroko started emitting dark purple aura "I better go talk with onee-sama" she said as she quickly teleported back to her dorm.
When Kuroko arrived at her dorm Mikoto had already finished packing her bags and was ready to leave for the airport.
"Oh hey Kuroko, nice timing, can you teleport me to the airport?" Mikoto asked as she grabbed her bag. Kuroko rushed to her and grabbed her shoulder.
"Onee-sama! Don't tell me you're going somewhere with that barbarian!" cried Kuroko with anger.
"What the hell are you talking about Kuroko? I already told you that I'm going with my family," Mikoto replied, confused. She tried to remove Kuroko's hand from her shoulder.
"BUT I saw him just a few minutes ago, and he said that he's leaving Academy City too." Kuroko still raged.
"What! He's also leaving Academy City? I didn't know anything about that," Mikoto said with surprise.
"Onee-sama, you really don't know that that man is leaving?" asked Kuroko, calming down.
"Of course I didn't know. Besides, my mum is the one who arranged this trip," Mikoto replied while showing her plane ticket to Kuroko.
"Okay onee-sama, I believe you, and sorry for accusing you," sighed Kuroko weakly.
"It's okay Kuroko, I forgive you. Now let's go to the airport, I don't want to be late for my flight," Mikoto said, patting her kouhai on the back.
"Where is that man going anyway?" Kuroko asked as she helped Mikoto with her bag.
"I don't know. I guess he's going somewhere to get into trouble again, as he usually does," muttered Mikoto as she clenched her fist. "That idiot went somewhere without telling me again. When I come back, he had better give me a good explanation" thought Mikoto as Kuroko teleported them to the airport.
Touma had just arrived at his dorm. He had already packed his belongings last night, so he only needed to get changed to go to the airport. He quickly switched his uniform out for something more casual, and then said good bye to Index and Itsuwa before rushing to the airport.
He arrived at the airport just in time; he meant to arrive 30 minutes earlier, but his misfortune got him caught in a traffic jam that nearly caused him to be late. He checked in and received his ticket. He glanced at the ticket, and unexpectedly discovered that his seat was business class. This was a surprise, he expected himself to be seated in economy class.
"Err… are you sure this seat number is right?" asked Touma, curiously.
"Yes, I'm pretty sure that is the right seat. It says here that your seat has already been booked in with your ticket," the staff member replied as he showed Touma's plane ticket to him.
"Okay, thank you," said Touma as he left the counter. "When did dad have enough money to buy a business class ticket," muttered Touma as he walked toward the gate, "he should at least increase my allowance instead."
Mikoto, who had come early, already sat in her seat by the window. She dropped her hand bag in the seat next to her, and began to stare outside of the plane. She was still angry from what she had heard from Kuroko; Touma had left Academy City. "I'll bet he's going somewhere with that nun" Mikoto thought, ignoring the pain she felt in her chest. Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of someone calling her. She turned around, and was shocked.
Touma had just arrived at the plane. He felt relieved that he did not end up missing his flight. He made his way inside and showed his seat number to the air hostess. She smiled and guided him to his seat. When he arrived at his seat, he found a hand bag in his spot. He looked up to see a brown haired girl in the seat next to his, staring out the window. He decided to ask her politely, "Excuse me miss, can you please remove your hand bag from my seat?"
The girl turned and said, "Oh, I'm sorry," and removed her hand bag. Then she looked up and saw something beyond her expectations.
Both of their jaws dropped.
"Misaka-san!"
"Kamijou-san!"
"What are you doing here!" they cried in unison.
The air hostess glared at them, "Please lower your voices. You're disturbing the other passengers." The pair nodded and Touma sat in his seat.
After he sat down, Mikoto leaned closer to him and asked quietly, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm going on a vacation with my family in Okinawa, what about you?" responded Touma, asking her in return.
"Same, I'm also on a vacation with my family," Mikoto narrowed her eyes at him, "So you're really not doing any dangerous stuff this time?"
"No, No, I'm serious, I'm just having a vacation with my family," Touma insisted to Mikoto while sweating.
"Oh, okay," Mikoto replied, feeling relieved that he was not putting himself in danger again. Then she remembered something from Daihaseisai. She stood up and looked around the plane, "Where is that nun? Is she going with you?" Mikoto asked angrily.
"Index? No, she didn't come. My parents wanted just our family, so I told her she had to stay home," Touma explained to Mikoto.
"I see, so you're by yourself, but why didn't you tell me that you were leaving Academy City for Golden week? You told that nun…" Mikoto said weakly.
Touma sighed, "I'm sorry Misaka-san, I just found out about this vacation a few days ago, and everything has been pretty rushed, so I forgot to tell you." His eyes narrowed on Mikoto, "What about you? You also didn't tell me that you were leaving."
Mikoto blushed when she saw Touma narrow his eyes at her "I guess you're right, we were both wrong this time, right?"
Then, the air hostess, who had been watching them for a while, approached them "You two are a couple right?" she asked with a smile.
"NO!" Touma and Mikoto denied in unison, blushing.
"It's nice to be young," the air hostess smiled. She left them alone until they arrived in Okinawa's airport.
At Okinawa's Airport Before Touma and Mikoto's Plane Arrive
The Kamijou and Misaka families entered Okinawa's airport terminal.
"I cannot believe both of you already knew each other" Misuzu said with surprise.
"Yeah, we met each other while on our business trip, but I couldn't recall that until now, that we had met that is," Misaka Tabikake replied while walking by her side.
"Of course you couldn't recall, you were pretty drunk back then," Kamijou Touya chuckled happily.
"Oh? But I do remember that pub, and that pretty girl you were staring at the entire time, right?" Tabigaka, actually unable to remember anything, was just teasing the man back.
"What are you saying? Are you trying to give me a death warrant?" cried Touya as the black aura emitting from his wife encircled him.
"Araa~ Touya-san, my ears must have mistaken what they just heard, right?" Shiina said quietly, her eyes glowing red.
"Darling, Tabikake-san was just joking, please calm down!" Touya tried his best to save his own life, but his efforts were vain.
While Touya received a hellish lecture from his wife, Tabikake whispered to his wife quietly, "Are you sure that that boy is a good man? I mean, I still can't believe Mikoto-chan is actually interested in a boy!"
"Do you remember the encounter I had with Skillout in Academy City?" Misuzu whispered.
"Yeah, I still worry that that might happen again," Tabikake replied in a concerned tone.
"That boy is the one who saved my life. He was the one who risked his life to save me, he even ended up in hospital afterwards," Misuzu said, remembering the night she was saved.
"I guess he might be a good man after all," Tabikake admitted, "But are you sure Mikoto-chan is interested in him? I don't want to force her to be with someone she doesn't like." Tabikake accepted Misuzu's explanation, but he was still worried about his daughter.
"Just believe in me, okay? You will understand when you meet them," Misuzu said, giving him a wink.
Tabikake sighed, "Okay dear, I believe you."
"Thanks honey, and also, don't tell Mikoto-chan about that Skillout event okay? I don't want her to worry about me. Also, I don't think Touya-san and Shiina-san know about it either, so just keep it secret, alright?" pleaded Misuzu with a seriously tone.
"Okay, I understand," he replied back, turning his attention to his friend, "Are you okay," he said as he look at Touya who had just finished getting lectured by his wife.
"Of course not, why did you have to say that?" Touya complained while still rubbing his ears from the torture.
"I don't know, actually, I can't remember anything." Tabikake smirked, "I guess you could call it payback for saying I was drunk."
"But you really were drunk back then! Ah forget it," Touya sighed. A person on the intercom had just announced that Mikoto and Touma's plane had landed, and the parents made their way to the waiting area.
In the Plane After it Landed
As people started to leave their seats, Touma got up and opened the overhead locker. He brought down his and Mikoto's belongings.
Touma passed her hand bag to her. She accepted and said with a blush, "Ah, thanks Kamijou-san."
His cheeks went red, "We should get off the plane," he said, walking towards plane's exit; Mikoto followed behind.
At the plane's exit, the same air hostess that recognized them as couple was greeting passengers. When Touma and Mikoto walked past her she said, "Have a nice trip together in Okinawa you two." Touma, quickening his pace and put his palm on his face to hide his embarrassment, leaving Mikoto, head lowered, trailing behind him.
As they arrived in the baggage carousel area, their bags had already arrived on the belt. Touma's luggage was circling around; he picked it up instantly as it arrived in front of him. He dropped his bag beside him and asked Mikoto, "Misaka where is your luggage"
"Hmm" she said as she looked for her bag, "There it is." She pointed to a green piece of luggage. Touma looked for it, and then he saw a green luggage going by on the carousel. The Gekota keychain was a dead giveaway of who it belonged to. Mikoto moved to pick it up, but Touma was faster; before she could take a step, he had already picked it up and was carrying it for her.
"You don't need to help you know! I can do it by myself!" Mikoto huffed while looking at Touma.
"I already told you, I just don't like seeing a girl straining herself carrying heavy stuff" Touma replied with a smile.
Mikoto blushed when she heard Touma recognize her as a girl. "Thank you," she mumbled as she lowered her head in embarrassment.
"No problem, but I guess this is the part where we go our separate ways now," Touma said while dragging his luggage and supporting Mikoto's under his arm.
Mikoto looked a little bit down after hearing this; she want to stayed with him a little longer, however, she did have a family she needed to go to, "I guess so," she replied sadly, as she continued to walk next to him.
"Don't be sad, Misaka, it's just for Golden week, we will see each other again afterwards anyways," Touma said, comforting Mikoto.
"Yeah, right, I shouldn't be sad, after all, I came here for relaxation, right?" Mikoto replied with a smile. Little did they know that this Golden week would be one hell of a ride for them.
Meanwhile, at the waiting area, the parents were watching their children through the glass wall. They had been watching the entire time, but nobody paid them any mind.
"This is first time I have seen Mikoto-chan act like this," Tabikake said with surprise.
"See? It is as I told you, Mikoto-chan is interested in Touma-kun," Misuzu replied with a smirk.
"I'm so proud of your son for carrying her bag," Touya said teary eyed to Touma.
"They both look so cute together," Shiina commented while looking at them.
As Touma and Mikoto entered the waiting area, they could hear their parents calling for them. They immediately walked towards them.
Misaka's Family
"Hi mum, hi dad!" Mikoto greeted as she walked towards her father and hugged him. She had not seen him in over a year.
"Hi Mikoto-chan, long time no see. I'm sorry I couldn't come to see you on Daihasei," Tabikake said while patting Mikoto's head.
"I understand dad, but at least I get to see you now," she said while releasing him from her hug. Then she walked toward Misuzu, gave her a hug too and said "Mum, how's your university going?"
While Misuzu hugged Mikoto, she replied "It's fine, Mikoto-chan, I have a lot of work, but I will manage it somehow," then she parted from Mikoto's hug.
Kamijou's Family
"Hi mom and dad," Touma greeted his parents as he walked towards them.
"Hey son, how's it going?" Touya replied.
"Same thing as always dad, I'm as misfortunate as ever," Touma sighed while showing his hand.
"Haha, that's my son for me," Touya laugh as he rapped his arm around Touma shoulder.
Shiina smiled as she watched her husband and son, then she approached and said "Touma, just don't cause too much trouble for Komoe-sensei, okay?"
"Okay mum, I'll try not to, but I'm a pretty misfortunate person," Touma smiled at her. Shiina just smiled back at him.
After Touma met with his parents, he realized that he still had Mikoto's luggage, so he walked towards Misaka's family to return it. As he approached her family, he saw Mikoto's happy expression and decided that he didn't want to disturb them. He dropped Mikoto's luggage close by, but before he could walk away he was called by Misuzu, "Hey Touma, it's been awhile, thanks for the help last time."
Touma gave a shallow bow, "Hi Misuzu-san, long time no see, and it was really no problem, in that kind of situation I try to help everyone with all my strength," replied Touma. Then he realize that there was man standing in front of him.
"So you're the Touma-kun who saved my wife from Skillout in Academy City?" said Tabikake as he grabbed hold of Touma's shoulders tightly and looked him in the eye.
"Yes sir, I am the one," said Touma, stiff a bit from Tabikake's actions, but still confident.
Tabikake released his shoulders and said, bowing slightly, "Hi, I'm Misaka Tabikake, and thank you for saving my wife."
Touma was totally surprised at Tabikake actions, "It's okay sir, I would have helped anyone in that situation," he replied with a bit of confusion.
Tabikake got up and said, "Just call me Tabikake-san," he smiled, "You have good eyes. Look after my daughter for me, okay?" Tabikake no longer had any qualms with this boy. While traveling the world he had learned to judge a man's worth by looking in his eye. This boy had a good eye.
"Err, okay… Tabikake-san," Touma replied, still uncertain what Tabikake meant.
Misuzu, who been glaring at her husband the whole time, thought "And he told me he would keep it a secret." She sighed.
Mikoto, who looked confused as she walked towards her mother, asked "Hey mum, what's going on here?"
"Nothing dear, it was just a greeting," Misuzu replied while patting her daughter.
"But Dad actually bowed to someone, that's not just some greeting. I also heard him say that Kamijou-san saved your life! You better explain everything to me," Mikoto said, determined to get an explanation.
Tabikake walked toward Mikoto and said, "I'll explain everything to you later, but for now, let's go to our hotel." While Tabikake talked to his daughter, Touya and Shiina had made their way to stand behind Touma.
"So I guess you saved Misuzu-san from something right?" Touya asked Touma while putting his hand on Touma's shoulder.
Touma nodded back and asked "Shouldn't we be getting to our hotel too? It is getting late."
"Yeah we should" Touya replied with smirk on his face. Touma did not understand why his father was grinning. Then, his father said, "Let's go Tabikake-san."
"Yeah, okay, let's go," said Tabikake as he walked while holding Mikoto's hand and carrying her bag. Misuzu, Touya and Shiina followed him.
Touma was dumbstruck while watching them. Then, his mind came back to reality, and he grabbed his luggage and rushed toward them not wanting to be left behind. He asked his father, "Hey dad, why are we going in same direction? Don't tell me we're staying at the same hotel?"
Touya replied, "Heh! Don't you know Touma? We are vacationing with the Misaka family the entire week."
"WHAT!" Touma screamed, dropping his luggage.
Mikoto, who had heard the entire conversation, asked her father with curious face, "Dad, what does he mean?"
"It means as he said, we are going to stay with the Kamijou family for our entire vacation. Didn't your mother tell you that?" Tabikake replied with a smile.
Mikoto turned and glared at her mother, who only smiled back at her.
Touma, who had just returned from his shock, quickly picked up his luggage and sighed and said to himself, "This will be a long vacation, Fukou-da…" then followed his parents.
At a 5 Star Hotel
Touma and Mikoto waited in the lobby while their parents checked in at the front desk. Touma, still amazed at the decorations in the hotel, said, "There's no way my dad can afford this kind of luxury!"
"I bet my mum was the one who planned all this," Mikoto huffed as she sat on the sofa.
"I see, that would explain plane seats and hotel," Touma said while looking around.
"I wish she wouldn't do anything weird," Mikoto replied, annoyed with her mother.
Touma walked toward Mikoto and sat on the sofa across from her, "Why are you so annoy with your mother, at least we get to have a vacation together for a week," Touma said as he smiled at her.
Mikoto blushed hard and said, "Your right I guess," and then smiled back at him.
Touma blushed a bit then said, looking determined, "I guess I should also give my parents the best vacation I can give, seeing as I lost my memory."
Mikoto's red cheeks and smile disappeared instantly, "Don't tell me you haven't told them about your memories yet?" she asked while staring at him.
"Yeah, they still don't know about it, and the last vacation they took I know wasn't a good one, so the least I can do is try to repay them as much as I can with this one," said Touma with a weak smile to Mikoto.
After she heard that, a tear appeared in her eye, "But they are your parents damn it! They should at least know something about you!" she scolded him.
Mikoto's words hurt Touma a lot, but he suppressed it. He walked toward her and sat next to her, "I already told you before, my memories do not come from my brain, they come from my heart, and if telling them means to cause them to suffer, I'd rather not mention it at all," he said quietly while comforting her.
"But! They are still your par….." Mikoto was interrupt by Touma's hug, she started to blush again.
Touma released Mikoto, looked at her, and said with a smile, "But they live happily now, and I want it to stay that way."
Mikoto nodded and said "You're an idiot."
"Maybe I am," he chuckled. Then they changed the topic to something else.
The entire scene was watched by both of their mothers.
"So their relationship is deeper than I thought," said Misuzu while looking at them.
"Should we increase the pace of our plan?" Shiina asked Misuzu.
"Nah, let's keep it the way it is, rushing sometimes backfires," Misuzu answered as she walked to her husband.
"How are our room arrangements dear?" Misuzu asked her husband.
"It is as you ordered, twin beds right? But why not just one queen size bed, wouldn't it be better for their relationship?" Tabikake replied while filling out the form.
Misuzu elbowed her husband's waist, "What are you thinking dear? Don't forget they still in high school and middle school. Don't think of something funny," Misuzu scolded her husband.
"Arghhh, I'm sorry, okay, here are the room key cards," apologized Tabikake, rubbing his waist. He handed his wife the cards.
"Thank you dear," she accepted the key cards, walked toward Touya and Shiina and called "Mikoto-chan, Touma, the rooms is ready." Mikoto and Touma got up and walked toward her. She handed a card each to Touya and Shiina, then turned toward Mikoto and Touma and said, "Here's the room key for you two." She handed each of them a key card.
Mikoto took the card and asked her mother, "Err… mum, what's my room number?"
"Araa~ I forgot the room number, but don't worry, your dad will show you the room anyway," Misuzu replied as she gave them a wink.
Mikoto and Touma instantly knew something fishy was going on, "I have a bad feeling about this," Touma whispered to Mikoto.
"Yeah, same, I don't trust that wink either," Mikoto replied back while glaring at her mother.
Tabikake, who just finished checking in, walked toward them and said, "Let's drop our luggage in our rooms and come down for dinner." Everyone agreed and followed him.
At a certain hotel floor Tabikake started showing everyone their rooms, "Okay, me and Misuzu will be staying in the left room, Touya-san and Shiina-san will be staying in right room, and Mikoto-chan will be staying in the room in front of us."
"Tabikake-san, where does this room key lead too?" Touma asked Tabikake as he showed him his key card.
"Oh, I forgot. Touma, you are going stay with Mikoto-chan," Tabikake replied.
"What!" Touma and Mikoto cried unison; "I knew it from that wink," Touma thought, "Fukou-da.".
Mikoto walked toward her father and said, "How can you let a boy and a girl stay in the same room, especially if that girl is your daughter!" Mikoto began to blush.
Tabikake answered his daughter, "What's wrong with that? He is my friend's son, and he has also saved Misuzu before, so I trust that he won't do anything to you."
Mikoto accepted her father explanation because she knew it was the truth, Touma wouldn't do anything to her, "Okay fine, but you better explain the part where he saved mum," huffed Mikoto as she walked toward her and Touma's room.
"Okay, that settles it. Let's unpack our stuff and meet here in 15 minutes for dinner," Tabikake announced. Everyone agreed and entered their rooms.
Touma followed Mikoto into their room. She checked the bathroom while Touma quickly walked to see their beds. He felt relieved that there were two twin sized beds instead of one king sized one. "Hey Misaka-san, at least there are twin beds."
Mikoto also felt relieved, "Phew, lucky my mum didn't go overboard this time." However, the thought that she had to sleep in the same room as Touma for an entire week kept her blushing.
"Misaka-san, which bed do you want to have? I don't go to toilet at night, so I don't care which one," Touma asked her while standing in the middle of the room.
"Hmm, well, I do go to toilet sometimes at night, so I think I should take the closer one," Mikoto said as she sat on her bed to check the comfort.
"I'll go get your luggage, Misaka," Touma said as he walked out of the room.
Mikoto went to followed him, but her mobile phone rang. She looked at her mobile screen and saw Kuroko's name appear. She decided to take the call, "Hey Kuroko, is there anything wrong?"
"Everything is fine onee-sama, I'm just bored because I'm alone without onee-sama by my side."
"You will be fine Kuroko; I will only be away for a week."
"Where are you now onee-sama?"
"I'm in my hotel room."
"I guess you are having fun with your family?"
"I think so, but because of my mum there might be a bit of trouble."
"What do you mean by trouble onee-sama?"
"You don't want to know Kuroko."
"What do you mean onee–sama? Now I really want to know!"
Mikoto sighed. It would be difficult to explain the situation to Kuroko. She knew how Kuroko acted toward Touma. While Mikoto was thinking of a way to explain her circumstances, Touma entered the room and asked, "Misaka-san, where do you want me leave your luggage?"
Mikoto put her hand on the phone receiver to block her voice and then said, "Just leave it there Kamijou-san." As she finished talking to Touma she released her hand from receiver. Kuroko had already heard Touma's voice.
"Err… Onee-sama, who was that? That voice sounded awfully familiar."
"Oh, it's just a bellboy. He asked where he should leave my luggage."
"I'm not convinced onee-sama, that voice sounded way too familiar."
Mikoto knew that if Kuroko found out that she went to Okinawa with Touma, that it would be a big problem.
"Err… onee-sama, why are you suddenly quiet, is something wrong?…" she suddenly stopped because she heard that voice again.
At the same time, Mikoto was so deep in thought trying to find an excuse for Kuroko, that she didn't realize that Touma had been calling her. He walked closer to her and touched her shoulder, "Hey Misaka-san are you alright?"
Mikoto awoke from her trance and replied, "Yes, Kamijou-san, is there something wrong?"
Touma sighed and said, "I've been calling for you for a few minutes now, but you didn't answer. I just wanted to let you know that our parents are already waiting outside. We should go have dinner now."
"Oh, I'm sorry Kamijou-san, okay, let…" she was interrupt by her phone; she totally forgot that her call with Kuroko was still connected.
"ONEE-SAMA!" Kuroko screamed at her phone so loud even Touma could hear it. "WHY IS THAT BARBARIAN'S VOICE COMING FROM YOUR PHONE, AND WHY HE IS IN YOUR HOTEL ROOM IN OKINAWA, AND WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY GOING TO HAVE DINNER WITH HIM!" Kuroko raged at her phone.
Touma's face paled as he heard Kuroko's voice. He asked Mikoto, "Don't tell me that's Shirai-san?" Mikoto just nodded. Touma knew his fate when he returned to Academy City. There was only one thing he could say right now, "FUKOU-DA!"
Then the voice from her phone came out again, "THAT PHRASE! THAT BABARIAN IS ACTUALLY NEXT TO ONEE-SAMA! KUROKO REQUIRES AN EXPLANATION!"
Mikoto took a deep breath before she started explaining, "Okay, I will make it short Kuroko, my parent is waiting. My family and Kamijou-san's family decided to have a vacation together in Okinawa, that's why Kamijou-san is next to me right now, okay? Anyway I have to go, I will call you later, see ya." Mikoto disconnected her call with Kuroko and turned her phone's power to off. She knew Kuroko would not stop calling her.
Then she glared at Touma and said "Because of you! You idiot!"
"I know, I'm sorry, but we can think of how to get out of this situation after, right now, our parents are waiting," Touma replied to Mikoto as he sighed at his misfortune.
"Okay, let's go Kamijou-san," she said as she left with Touma.
At Tokiwadai dorm
Kuroko still raged at her phone, "Don't hang up onee-sama!, what do mean by staying with ape man for your entire vacation!" she cried out loud while still trying to call Mikoto, then she heard the call disconnect. "That barbarian must have been the one that shut her phone off. I must go save my onee-sama from that barbarian!" Kuroko cried out loud.
At that moment, the door to her room was slammed open by her dorm manager. She walked toward Kuroko, grabbed her neck and said, "Shirai Kuroko, you are making too much noise." She snapped Kuroko's neck to the side and tossed her onto her bed all in one swift motion. "Geez I thought that with Misaka gone she would have been more quite" muttered the dorm manager as she shut the door behind Kuroko.
Back at the hotel
Misuzu asked Mikoto, "What's wrong Mikoto-chan? I heard a lot of noise from your room."
"I will explain it to you at dinner mum, now let's go I'm hungry," Mikoto replied as her stomach growled.
Tabikake heard his daughter's stomach rumble and said, "I guess you are hungry from all that traveling. Okay, let's go have dinner." He walked toward elevator and everyone followed.
They decided to have their dinner in the Hotel because it was getting late.
In the restaurant they sat at a circular table, with Mikoto and Touma next to each other.
Touma was surprised when he looked at the menu, "There are way too many zeros" he said, then he leaned toward his father and whispered, "Hey dad, are you sure you'll be able to pay all this?"
"It's okay son, Tabikake-san has a lot influence in this hotel, so we have a large discount," Touya whispered back to his son as he continued looking at the alcohol section.
"Okay, as you say dad," Touma said as he started to decide what he wanted to have. Then he saw Mikoto, who was now focusing on her menu, he asked, "Misaka-san, what are you having?"
"Hmm… I'm still deciding Kamijou-san," Mikoto replied as she continued to look at the menu.
Misuzu, who had listened to their conversation, just noticed something. She asked, "Mikoto-chan, Touma-kun, why do both of you still call each other by your family names?" They both looked up.
"What's wrong with that mum?" Mikoto replied as she glared at her mother.
"What with that look Mikoto-chan? You should call each other by your first names, it's not like you guys are strangers. Besides, it is confusing when you use family names, we don't know which one of us you calling too" Misuzu replied back to her daughter. Mikoto couldn't deny she was right.
"I agree with Misuzu-san," said Shiina, "Sometimes it is confusing when Mikoto-chan calls Touma using our family name, I don't know if she calls me or Touma," Both mothers agreed with each other. There was little their children could do.
Touma sighed and said, "I guess you right mum, and there's nothing wrong with calling each other by our first names, right… Mikoto?"
"Yeah… Touma." said Mikoto as she blushed hard. Touma felt his heart jump when Mikoto said this, and he too began to blush. Both of their parents smiled as they watching their children's reaction.
After they had ordered their meal, Misuzu remembered something; she asked her daughter, "Mikoto-chan, what was that noise we heard in your room earlier, you said you were going to explain it at the dinner table."
Mikoto remembered and said, "It was nothing mum, Kuroko called and got upset because I'm with Kami… err, Touma, that all."
"Hmm, Kuroko," Misuzu tried to remember who she was, "Isn't that your kouhai with twin tails?"
"Yes mum, that's her," Mikoto sighed.
"Then I guess it's not weird for her to be upset at Touma-chan for being here," Misuzu said while she laughed.
"Why? Did Touma do anything to her?" Shiina asked curiously.
"No, no. It's not something like that," Misuzu denied "It's just that her feelings toward Mikoto-chan are more than just senpai and kouhai," she continued explaining with a smirk.
Shiina understood Misuzu and said, "I guess that means Touma has another candidate for Mikoto-chan." She gave Touma a smile.
"What are you talking about mum," he scolds his mother while blushing. Mikoto, who had been listening the entire time, was as red as a tomato. Their parents burst into laughing at their children's reaction, but were interrupted by a waitress serving their food.
After dinner, Tabikake started explaining the schedule for their vacation. "Okay, so we are going to stay in this hotel for three nights, including today, then we will go on a boat trip around the island, and from there stay the rest of our vacation on a private island. I'll explain the schedule for each day every evening." Touma was surprised how luxurious his vacation was going to be. "For tomorrow, there is really nothing much, it is just a shopping day I guess. However, in the evening, the Hotel will be hosting banquet that I have to attend, and of course, everyone is invited. Formal clothing must be worn, as you know," Tabikake explained as he looked at Touya.
"But I didn't know anything about this, and I didn't bring any of my formal dresses" Mikoto said to her father.
"It's ok dear, we will get a new dress for you tomorrow," he replied to his daughter with a smile. Then he shifted his eyes to Touma, "I guess you are going to need a suit too right Touma?"
"Yes Tabikake-san, I never brought any of my formal clothing, not that I think I have any anyway" Touma replied as he sighed.
"That settles it then, tomorrow will be a free day in the city. We can have breakfast and lunch together, and don't forget about Hotel banquet in the evening. As for now, let's get some rest," Everyone returned to their rooms.
In Touma and Mikoto's Room
"Geez, what a long day," complained Mikoto as she jumped onto her bed. She was completely tired from trouble that her mum had given her.
Touma agreed with her, "I guess so, and this is only the first day," he sighed as he walked toward his bed. "So your mum planed all of this. What she trying to accomplish?" Touma asked as he sat on the side of his bed.
"I really don't know, I think she just wanted to mess me around," Mikoto grumbled. She suddenly remembered something; she jumped up, sat on her bed, and stared at Touma. She asked, "What happened between you and my mum? I heard you saved her life. What did both of you get involved in?" Mikoto was determined to know answer.
"I'm sorry Mikoto, I cannot tell you," Touma answered while trying to avoid eye contact.
His answer made Mikoto really angry, blue sparks started appearing around her, "What do you mean you cannot tell me? Did both of you get involved in something that was so bad that you cannot even tell me!" Mikoto scolded him.
When Touma saw the sparks he quickly grabbed and held her left hand with his right hand, "Mikoto, you can't use your power in here, it's too dangerous!"
Mikoto, now unable to use her power because of Touma's right hand, began to cry. Her tears started to fall, but not out of anger toward Touma, but out of anger toward herself, her worthlessness, and her inability be there when it matters. She started pounding on Touma's chest with her right hand, "You never tell me anything about yourself, and now your even going hide something from me that involves my family, just tell me already!"
Touma froze. His chest started to feel pain, not pain from Mikoto's pounding, but pain from her words… her tears. He didn't want to tell her about his situation because he wanted her to live happily, without knowing about the conflict between magic and science. He hadn't known that his goodwill had caused her to suffer that much. He grabbed and held her right hand and said, "I'm really sorry Mikoto, but I still cannot tell you." The pain in his chest increased.
"Why! Why am I the only one that is left behind? Am I that worthless, that I have to be the only one enjoying life, while others suffer?" She cried and threw herself at Touma. She buried her head in his chest as she continued to cry.
Touma was unable to do anything and released her hand. He hated himself. He had sworn to himself that he would protect the world around this girl, but now, she who has the power of an army, was reduced to tears because of his goodwill. He ground his teeth and clenched his fist. His nails dug into the skin on his palm, which was soon covered in warm blood. Mikoto was still buried into his chest and sobbing when she stopped, she could feel a warm liquid on her leg. She looked down and saw a splotch of red on her thigh. Blood. She was confused; she didn't know where the blood came from. Then she lifted her face away from Touma's chest. Her tears stopped as she glanced up at Touma. He was angry. She didn't understand could have angered him, then she looked down and saw his fist bleeding. She said "That's enough! Stop it! You're bleeding!" but Touma did not respond, his mind was too clouded with hatred toward himself. Mikoto saw his hand, still clenching tightly, blood still dripping. She quickly grabbed his hand and hugged it against her chest. "Please stop, you're hurting yourself!" she pleaded.
Touma, who was finally back to reality, realized that Mikoto was holding his hand. His expression, which was originally full of confusion, softened as he looked down at Mikoto's teary eyed face. "I'm sorry Mikoto, I never knew you suffered this much, I just wanted to protect you." He said, "It's not like I don't want to tell you what happened, but I promised Misuzu-san to keep it a secret from you." He looked toward the ground with a sad expression.
"I understand Touma, I will talk to my mum tomorrow, so please stop hurting yourself" she said, worried. She took her handkerchief from her pocket and started wiping the blood from his right hand.
"Thank you, Mikoto, for understanding," he said with weak smiled.
"Touma, you are an idiot for hurting yourself," Mikoto replied.
"Just call me, Touma," said Touma with a smile, "And at least I'm not a crying baby."
"How dare you call me a crying baby, stupid Touma!" she shouted as she punched him in the face, sending him flying backwards toward his bed. "Geez… I will take shower first, and no peeking," she huffed at Touma while she walked toward the bathroom.
Touma rubbed his face and then said with a smirk, "Ahah, don't worry, I won't peak, though I can't promise anything if the door is unlocked."
Mikoto blushed as she heard his words. She threw her bag at him and shouted, "You pervert!" She went into the bathroom and slammed the door. A faint click could be heard.
As Mikoto entered the bathroom his face became serious again. He was still holding Mikoto's handkerchief with both hands. What should he do? He never wanted to see her cry like that ever again. He tried his best to find a solution, but was unable to. Growing frustrated, he began to cletch his fist again, but stopped. He felt Mikoto's handkerchief in his hands and remembered what she said. "I guess I should think about this later," he said as he scratched the back of his head. He lay down on his bed and looked at her handkerchief smiling.
Mikoto came out the bathroom with a towel around her neck and saw Touma laying on his bed smiling at her handkerchief, "Why are you smiling at my handkerchief?" she asked curiously.
Touma jumped off his bed, "No reason! I'm going to have shower now," and walked toward the bathroom, before he went inside he turned around and said, "And NO peeking!"
"Why would I?" she scoffed as she threw her towel at him. Touma quickly closed the door and locked it. After Touma finished his shower, they talked for a little bit before going to sleep.
