Step one on 'How to get Len and Gumi Together Plan' : Pour water all over Len to wake him up
"Careful Rin!" Hisses Miku in the form of a whisper as the blonde's bucket tips a little too much to the left, sending a few drops of water to the ground.
"Sorry." Replies Rin quietly as she centers the object once more.
"Are you sure this will work?" Asks the tealette for the umpteenth time ever since she got her friend to help her play matchmaker.
"Yes!" She tells her in exasperation. "Why do you doubt?"
"Because it's you that I'm working with." Miku voices flatly.
"Good point, but don't worry. Nobody knows my brother better than me."
"Okay, I am going to trust you here."
"Good and did you call Gumi?"
"Yup, she'll be here in..." Miku looks at the clock hanging on the wall. "Five minutes."
"Better get a move on then." Opening the door to her brother's room, Rin slip in with practiced ease; her friend following suit, just a little less gracefully. As in walking into the door *Ahem, cough*.
Reaching Rin's side, Miku gives a small nod and slides Len's blankets off with her foot. Grumbling, the sleeping teen rolls onto his back - which was a fatal mistake on his part - and tucks both hands underneath his pillow. 'Wow, how dumb can you get even if you are sleeping?' Thinks Rin as she looks at her exposed sibling. 'No wonder you're a blonde! Oh wait, but that would apply to me too then. Dang!' Shaking her head to clear her thoughts, she raises the bucket up and lets gravity do the rest. Seconds after water hits him, Len shoots up with a wet upper torso and looks around wildly until he sees the two and gives them a murderous glare.
Well, step one of the plan, CHECK.
Step two on 'How to get Len and Gumi Together Plan' : Run like H-E-L-L (Benefits Miku and Rin only)
The two girls dart downstairs with a six foot pissed off giant hot on their heels. Oh yeah, they totally followed step two of the plan. Looks like not too much motivation was needed either.
CHECK!
Step three on 'How to get Len and Gumi Together Plan' : Water Fight! (Gotta show off Len's hotness somehow)
Almost reaching the front yard, Rin flies through the previously opened door with Miku just behind her. She can see it in front of her with the light shining through, making it look almost like a portal of some sort. Stretching out an arm, the tealette is just about to make it when a hand wraps itself around her wrist. Pivoting sharply, she is greeted by the sight of a half naked Len with slicked back bangs, giving her a clear shot of his face and cyan-blue eyes.
'Oh crud,' is the first thing that pops into her head as she realizes how pissed the dude really is. Tugging her closer, Len slips his water drenched shirt over her and brings her into a bone crushing hug as if he were being reunited with a long lost lover. The only difference is that Miku could feel the liquid start to soak her own borrowed clothes. 'C-c-cold!' She thinks, doing her best to hold back a shriek as it reaches her skin.
"Now you know how I feel" Len tells her as if reading her thoughts before letting her go and running after his sister. Shivering, the tealette pulls off the shirt, places it on the floor, and chases after him.
Outside, Miku spots Rin talking to a boy holding a bag full of groceries only to stop when she sees her brother pull out the connected hose. Eyes widening, Rin pulls him into her yard by the arm and spins him around so that she buried her face into his chest. The boy that Miku now recognizes as Nero, quickly utters a quiet "Huh?" Before an angry stream of water hits him in the center of his back. "HOLY FR***! IT'S COLD!" He then shouts.
Peeking cautiously around her now shivering shield, Rin's eyes widen once again as her brother takes aim for round 2. Whipping herself back, the blond looks up at him and says, "How you holding up Nero?"
Raising an eyebrow at her, he asks instead, "Why the heck am I your shield?"
"Because you were there and I know you. Plus, since you're my next door neighbor, it won't be hard to get a new change of clothes." A bit peeved that he was dragged into this fight without agreeing to it first along with having his question being outshined by her answer, Nero takes Rin by the shoulders and wordlessly spins her around so that she is now in front of him and facing her brother. "Traitor." She growls, glaring up at him.
"Love ya too Rin." Is his response as he looks down at her with an overly sweet smile.
"Creep." She mutters.
"Beauty." A small blush grows, tinting her neck red as she looks down, suddenly finding the ground very interesting. Looking up, Nero's golden eyes grow smaller as he gets hit in the face with yet another cold stream of water. "Ouch!" He whines.
Snickering, the shorter blonde tells him, "That's what you get when you hold an overprotective little brother's older sister in your arms in front of him." Only for her wide grin to disappear as she gets hit in the stomach. Doubling over dramatically, she falls to the ground leaving the dirty blond haired boy to watch the display in amusement. After a few minutes, Rin gets up with a sigh and says, "Holy crap bro! Since when was your aim so good?!"
"Ever since I had to deal with an older sister like you." Is his retort.
Rin frowns until she hears Miku add, "Aren't you the one who claimed you knew your brother the best?"
"That's what I thought."
"Hey Rin," Joins Nero, fixing a stern glare on her. "You owe me."
"What?"
"Another dare from Miku."
"Huh?"
"Oh! Then Rin, I dare you to.." Miku whispers the rest. By the time she's done, Rin's whole face and neck are as red as a cherry.
"Wh-wha-WHAT?!"
"You heard me."
"I didn't." Len tells her.
"That's because you don't need to."
"But I am her brother."
"So?"
"Don't I have a right to know?"
"Nope, not really." The two keep at it, giving the two blonde's a perfect opportunity to slip away.
"I'll get the water balloons." Nero tells her.
"Then I will go and get the water guns." Splitting up, they gather their weapons and return to Rin's yard where Miku and Len are still quarrelling.
"Ready?" Rin asks.
"Yup." Is Nero's reply.
"Okay,"
"Aim..."
"And FIRE!" Pulling her arm back, she targets her brother only for him to catch her throw, practically causing her to fall over from surprise. 'Since when could he do that?!' She screams silently. Getting more ammo, she's about to chuck another bomb when a cheerful voice interrupts saying, "Hey Rin!"
Looking, the blond sees Gumi and smiles, replying with a "Hey, what's up?"
"Nothing."
"You wanna join?"
"Uh," She pauses before looking down at her outfit. "Maybe later."
"Okay!" Running back into the action, Rin successful tackles Len, leaving Gumi to watch the scene play out happily; her eyes glued to a certain half naked teen. Focusing on his face first, her eyes widen in surprise as she sees his hair slicked back giving her a clear shot of his eyes. Memorizing everything, the greenette lets her gaze travel lower, following the elegant slope of his neck to his broad shoulders. Continuing, she looks over his chest, then his stomach. There, she studies him even more to see if Len had a four or six pack before realizing what she was doing and blushing.
Covering her face, the embarrassed stylish teen looks up a few minutes later to finish her inspection by letting her eyes wander up and down his muscular, but not overly defined arms. Putting the cherry on top, Miku watches as Gumi takes in Len as a whole and smiles while thinking to herself, 'Boo yeah!'
