Chapter 3

At next morning at breakfast, Mai sat with two girls who had pushed their trays forward and fell asleep on the table. She had this dream that night where Natsuki came in grinning and blushing, but apparently that was real because the bluenette had chugged down a cup of coffee and still managed to fall asleep.

Taking her cup of water, Mai smiled a bit and poured half of it onto the back of on Natsuki's head and the other half on Nao's. Nao sat up shaking her head, looking around wildly. Natsuki groaned and wiped it off with the back of her hand, than slowly sat up and sighed, "Mai, what the fuck? My dream took a drastic turn at that point." she said.

"I'll go get your two more coffee…" she said simply, standing up and walking to the drink areas.

Nao sighed and rubbed her eyes, taking in a huge yawn at the same time, "I cannot believe we stayed up until sunrise and only got an hour of sleep…"

"I can't believe we actually managed to become best friends in a matter of hours."

"That's 'cause I'm a fucking boss."

"Over confidence is better than no confidence."

"Shut up, Mutt."

"Spider!"

"Ah, now you're awake." Mai said, placing two cups of coffee and juice to replace her water on the table. Natsuki and Nao immediately picked up the coffee and started drinking, savoring the bitter blackness. Sipping her juice, Mai smiled at them, "Yea, this is why most people sleep."

"Fuck you, big tits." Nao muttered, eyeing the girl and taking another gulp of her coffee.

Mai glared hard at the girl and shook her head, "Rude. Anyway, I heard that all the cabins are going to be going out on the lake today. Kayaking, two people a boat."

"Score." both girls said at the same time, high fiving each other without looking.

Rolling her eyes again, Mai got up and ignored them, "I'll just go ask Mikoto then…"

She was equally ignored by the girls sipping coffee.

Gathering up all her courage, she walked over to Mikoto's cabin and stood at the end of the table. As soon as she got there, Mikoto looked up at her and grinned, bits of rice on her cheeks, "Mai! Hi!" she said/yelled, grinning widely.

'So cute~' Mai thought, but so did every other girl at the table, since they all swooned. Oblivious, Mikoto smiled up at her friend, "Mai, I heard all cabins are going kayaking today! Do you wanna be my partner?" she asked, making Mai's heart light up. She didn't even have to ask now! All she had to do was say yes!

"No!" another girl at the table said. She took on of Mikoto's hands in her own and made the girl look at her, "I was going to ask you!"

"Me too!" another girl chimed in, clasping her hands around Mikoto's other one.

Soon enough, all four girls were holding onto her hands, making Mikoto look between all of them with a confused look. But then she grinned. Two were holding one hand, two holding the other. Perfect! "You two," she said, holding up her left hand, "do it together. And you two," she held up her right, "do it together! And I'll do it with Mai! I love doing things with Mai!" she said, happily.

All four girls frowned at let her hands go. Mai just stood there and smirked at them all, feeling victory wash over her. "I'll finish my meal and then we can go get ready, okay, Mikoto?" she said, grinning.

"Of course!"

"Mutt, just slap me across the face, that'll wake me up." Nao muttered, leaning her head on Natsuki's shoulder.

"Go get me more coffee, Spider." Natsuki said, yawning right after she said it.

Nao was about to retort, but then she noticed something (rather, someone) coming their way, "Heh, I got something to wake you up."

"Oh, and what's that?"

"Shizuru Fujino."

"What!" Natsuki said, sitting perfectly straight, pushing the red head off her shoulder.

Nao muttered something under her breath and leaned her head on her hand, watching and smiling perfectly as Shizuru Fujino, as graceful as ever, walked over to the table and stood on the opposite side of table. "Ara, Natsuki-chan, good to see you."

"Good to see you too, 'Zuru." Natsuki said grinning, trying to hold in her blush.

Feeling compelled to ruin this moment of pure, innocent crushing, Nao elbowed her friend in the side.

Flinching a bit, the bluenette smiled again and pointed to the girl, "'Zuru', this is my friend, Nao Yuuki." she said, pinching the girl's side quickly.

Unsuspecting Nao went from smiling at Shizuru politely to jumping in her seat and letting out a high pitched squeak. She immediately turned to a surprised Natsuki and glared hard at the girl, slamming her fist her friend's thigh, "Anywhere but there!" she yelled.

Natsuki smirked, "Anywhere?"

Stopping for a moment, Nao blushed and glared harder, "You can't touch what isn't yours."

This only made Natsuki's smirk widen, "I've already seen it all, I don't need to touch." she said triumphantly. Nao officially gave up and sat there, looking down and blushing as hard as her hair without even introducing herself to Shizuru. Speaking of Shizuru, she was half in and out of reality and her own world where she was strangling Nao with a rubber hose.

Clearing her throat, Shizuru blinked and smiled as best she could at her friend, "Natsuki, Nao is not your girlfriend, is she?" she asked, trying as hard as ever to keep her composure.

"She wishes." Nao muttered before going back to silently drinking her coffee.

Natsuki shook her head, "No, she's not. And for the sake of your sanity just please ignore everything you just heard because I have no idea how I would explain any of it." she said, smiling softly.

Shizuru couldn't help but smile back and nod, "Of course, Natsuki-chan. I just came over to meet your friend, and also to ask you if you would like to be my partner in today's activities. It seemed as if everyone was already pairing up so I thought I'd come you before I lost my chance." she said, sending her feelings to the other girl through the air.

Nao picked up on it. It was like a wave of hormones flowing freely and happily towards their destined place… than hitting an oblivious brick wall guarded by the gods of ignorance. Was Natsuki seriously not picking up anything this chick was sending out? !

Instead, Natsuki just smiled nervously and scratched the back of her head, "Ah, me and Nao already paired up." she said, hers and Natsuki's smile both dropping slowly.

Midori came up suddenly, wrapping her arm around Shizuru's shoulder and grinning at them all, "Don't worry, I'm the back up. I got this." she said proudly.

Natsuki raised her brows, "I figured you would have joined up with Chie…"

The girl shook her head and pointed over to the field beside the ramada, where Chie and Aoi sat, talking to each other and eating and laughing and looking cute enough to induce diabetes. Midori scoffed, "Chie is such a fucking flirt and this chick made her fall head over heels in a matter of hours." she said.

Thinking back to her day's being tutored by a blue hair beauty, Nao leaned her head on the table and sighed softly, "I know the feeling…"

Natsuki smiled softly at her new friend. Nao was a pain and a bit rough around the edges, but she was so far gone into this Nina chick that it was adorable, "Hey Nao, let's finish eating so we can think of a game plan for you two, alright?"

The red head perked up and nodded, now scarfing down her food at an amazing rate. Natsuki immediately followed suit, and soon enough, all cabins were off!

Out on the lake it was a nightmare. Okay actually, off the lake it was a nightmare. On the shore were a few teams still waiting to get out on the water, but it seemed a few of the girls were either afraid of drowning or got sea sick easily. Midori and Shizuru were having a hard time reassuring the girls that nothing would happen, and if anything did happen, they would be perfectly safe.

This left Shizuru to glance out to the water every few moments and watch Natsuki, who was paddling around the lake with Nao. It looked as if the red head was spitting out orders and Natsuki was just following them…

"Come on, Mutt, find Nina!"

"What about my wants?"

"Fujino is on the shore, chill out. Now help me find my future girl!" Nao said excitedly, rowing with her oar to a group of girls all floating out on the water. Before she could find her crush, another kayak pulled up next to them.

"NAO!"

Nao sighed at Arika's loud and annoying voice and turned to see Nina sitting right next to her. She swallowed down the lump in her throat and set down her paddle, waving nervously, "Hey, Nina."

The bluenette smiled and waved back, "Hi, Nao. Have you been able to keep your grades up now that you're at Fuuka?" she asked, going back to the last thing that they had talking about.

"Y-Yea! My hard point was math, but you helped me understand it, so now I'm not falling be-"

"Nao! Back here!" Arika yelled from her seat behind Nina.

Natsuki snickered to herself and reached out to shake Nina's hand, "Hi, I'm Natsuki Kuga, Nao's friend." she said politely, bowing her head a bit.

Nina shook the hand immediately, "Nice to meet you, I'm Nina Wong. Shizuru's told me so much about you, Natsuki." she said, making the other girls ears perk up, and made her ask Nina if she knew Shizuru. "Yea, of course. Our fathers are close friends in the business world. So sometimes at meetings or something, we will hang back and talk about schooling, friends, our love lives, things of that sort." she said.

Ears perking up, Nao was about to ask about the love life part of that, but once again, there was a small annoyance. "Nao!" Arika yelled. The pig tailed girl paddled forward until she was sitting next to Nao in her kayak. She grinned at her friend and laughed, "Me and Nina are sharing a cabin! You two should come by sometime, cause there's a fire pit behind our cabin!"

"Smores'!" Natsuki yelled happily, getting everyone's attention. She shrugged and raised her brows, "Sharing a smore' with someone is awesome…" she muttered, looking at Nao. The red head got the memo, and immediately thought to the blue haired girl she was crushing on just a few feet away. Nina blushed slightly at hearing this, her thoughts traveling to what that would be like…

Arika nodded and smiled widely, "That sounds fun! I wanna try sharing a smore with Nao!" she said happily, looking at the red head excitedly.

Nina snapped out of her thoughts and blinked, shaking her head at her friend, "I don't think that's a good idea Arika…" she said, the thought of Nao and Arika sharing a smore' making her stomach feel uneasy for some reason.

"Yea I'm with Nina on that one.." Nao muttered.

Natsuki butt in at that point, "Hey Arika, race you to the other side of the lake!" she yelled, grabbing her oar competitively.

Arika grinned, "You're on!" she yelled, grabbing her oar and rowing off.

Nina was confused and tried to shout commands to stop, but Arika was already going on, so she just went with it and starting rowing. As Nao raised her oar to get into the race, Natsuki grabbed it out of the air and laid it on the kayak, "Not you, Spider. Now listen. Nina was into the sharing smores' thing, but when Arika suggested you two do it, Nina was suddenly against it."

Nao looked back at her friend and grinned, catching the drift, "You think she's a little bit into me?" she asked, wondering is Nina was getting jealous.

"Possibly." Natsuki said, smiling back, "I think you and me should act a bit more than friends, ya know? Make her jealousy get the best of her." she said, formulating the plot in her head. All they had to do was act like they were hooking up, and Nina would be in the bag.

The red head nodded, "Yea, just keep it to the small stuff. I don't want to turn her off completely."

The two nodded and started rowing immediately. Plan in hand, Nao knew how she was going to get Nina on her side now. And hopefully since Natsuki was pretty popular (popular enough for a Fujino) it would get Nina's attention quickly.

"Hurry it up, Nao, they're already at the rocks."

"Yea Mutt, that's because Arika has the energy of a fucking five year old who just drank his first soda."

As the two paddled on and got closer to the girls waiting for them, Nao felt something burning her eye, while half of everything she saw turned red for a moment, "Ah, fuck!" she yelled, holding a hand over her eye and hunching over.

"Keep going." Natsuki commanded, thinking the breeze must have just blown some sand up from the beach. Nao obeyed, but quickly looked over her shoulder to see a small red glint of light coming from a cove pretty far off from the beach. It looked like you could only get in from the water.

"We beat you!" Arika voice rang out in the distance.

As the boats neared each other, Nao uncovered her eye and turned to her friend, "Does my eye look okay?" she asked, blinking and feeling water there.

"Whoa, Nao, no not at all." Natsuki muttered, leaning forward and putting her hand on Nao's cheek, straightening the girls face, "Did dust blow into it or something? It's really red…"

Nao muttered a no and sighed, "It felt like someone was shooting one of those laser things at my eye. It just burned and now it hurts like hell."

Nina and Arika paddled the rest of the way to them, wondering what was going on. All Nina saw was how close the two were, with Natsuki looking directly into Nao's eyes. It seemed like they were having a moment… and once again, that same uneasy feeling came into her stomach.

Natsuki leaned back, making the feelings disappear and snapping her to attention, "Nina, Arika, Nao's eye got hurt by something so I'm going to take her to the nurse. Sorry about that race confusion."

Shrugging, Arika smiled softly and nodded, "Go fix up Nao, Natsuki-san! That way she can come back and play with us some more!"

Natsuki chuckled and nodded, "I'll get her back to you as fast as possible! Just for you, Arika."

As the two paddled away, Nao muttered a quick 'I hate you' to her blue haired friend.

Back on shore, Midori was taking over as Nao's caretaker. She said that since Nao was her camper, she should take responsibility. Which was actually all bull shit because she just wanted to leave Natsuki and Shizuru alone for a while. 'Bout time they hooked up!

The two red heads walked all the way back to camp and up to the nurse's station. Midori knocked on the door, and a sweet "Come in!" rang from behind it.

Nao rolled her eye (since the other was covered) and went inside, while Midori stood nearly frozen at the door, staring at the beauty to which she was beholding. Sitting at the nurse's desk talking to Nao sat a beautiful women with short, wavy, dark purple hair and bright blue eyes. She was just sitting there, listening to Nao's story and sipping on a pint of beer.

Whoa wait, where'd that come from?

"Of course, Miss Yuuki. Let me examine your eye quickly to make sure there's no damage and I can send you on your way." she said, putting down her beer and standing up.

Nao walked over to the examination table at the end of the room while the nurse looked through her desk for something. Midori stepped into the office and smiled at the woman, "Hi, I'm Midori, a counselor. I'm the one who walked Nao over here."

The woman looked up and smiled, grabbing something from her desk, "Nice to meet you, Midori, I'm Nurse Youko. Good job taking care of your campers." she said, holding a magnifier in front of Nao's eye and instructing the girl to open it wide.

"Yea, so, question time, where'd you get that beer?" Midori asked. 'Oh sweet brew, you have evaded me long enough, but this time, you shall be mine…' Midori thought, eyeing the cool drink on the table.

Youko giggled slightly and continued to examine Nao's eye, "I asked if I could keep a keg with me all summer, since I have to live here and can't leave the grounds, considering I'm the only nurse. And should there be an emergency while I'm not here, I cannot leave to make a beer run."

"But should an emergency happen while you're drunk, we're equally or even more screwed." Midori said, grinning.

Looking back at the red head, Youko smiled playfully and nodded, "Maybe I just need to find a drinking partner."

Midori immediately raised her hand, "I volunteer!"

"This isn't the Hunger Games, dipshit." Nao muttered, blinking and breathing a sigh of relief as Youko removed the instrument from in front of her eye.

Youko walked back around her desk and put her tool away, "Well Nao, you do have some irritation but that should go away within the hour. You have no real damage to your eye. Just be sure not to strain your eyes, don't read in the dark, yada yada yada, don't run into a nail." she said, picking her pint back up and smiling as she sipped it.

Nao jumped off the table and nodded, "Thanks. Now if you'll excuse me, ladies, I have a bluenette to seduce." she said, smirking at the girls and leaving the office.

Midori raised her brows and chuckled, "Damn, Fujino does have competition…"

Watching Midori and Nao walk away, Natsuki felt a tap on her shoulder. Turning, she instantly grinned at the smiling face of a certain someone, "Hey 'Zuru! How come you and Midori aren't out on the water?" she asked.

"Ara, there were a few campers who were too nervous or who got sea sick easily. As counselors we can't simply abandon them, so Midori and I decided to sit this one out. I did however see your little race." the Kyoto-ben said, recalling how it started slowly and than got annoying as Natsuki and Nao got close around the end.

"Oh yea, that wasn't really a race, I just wanted to talk to Nao about something." Natsuki explained, "But something hurt her eye, so Midori took her off to the nurse's office."

"You didn't take her? You two seem awfully close."

"Nah, we're just friends. Besides, Nao's got her eye on Nina Wong. I'm just trying to help her out cause I sort of kinda spied on her skinny dipping." the bluenette said, blushing heavily and scratching her cheek, "ah, but don't tell anyone!"

"Ara, you're dirty secret is safe with me." Shizuru said, a small smirk rising to her face, "but only if my Nat-su-ki-chan promises to go skinny dipping with me sometime."

The blush on Natsuki's cheeks intensified ten fold as thoughts of swimming naked with Shizuru blew through her mind, "B-But.. that.. I can't.. the rules…." she stuttered, trying to find a way to get out of it.

"The rules state that you cannot go out past bedtime, but I'm sure it would be alright if you can a counselor escort with you." Shizuru said, her smirk widening and Natsuki's blush burning brighter.

But before Natsuki could argue, a soaking wet Mikoto ran between the girls and started shaking her hair, her clothes; everything, splashing the two girls. They both gaped as Mikoto ran over to a soaking wet Mai and gave her a high five, "Did I do good, Mai?" she asked excitedly, awaiting her praise.

"That was awesome, Mikoto! You're so cute!" Mai yelled, hugging the girl and laughing.

"Ara, Miss Tokiha, would you like explaining why you two are both soaking wet?" Shizuru asked, wiping the droplets of water off her face.

"Yea, what the fuck, Mai!" Natsuki complained.

Mai pointed out across the lake were the bottom of a kayak sat in the water, "Mikoto flipped us over trying to grab a fish that was swimming around us, so we just swam back to shore."

"Mikoto loves sushi!" the small girl yelled happily, her canine poking out over her bottom lip as she smiled widely.

Natsuki sighed and shook her head, "Wow. That's actually too adorable to be mad at…"

"Mutt!" Nao yelled, walking down at the hill and stopping beside her new friend, "I just talked with Arika, her and Nina want us over for smore's behind their cabin tonight."

"Mikoto wants to go!"

"Eh, yea sure." Nao muttered, watching the girl curiously, "Big tits can come with you, too."

"I have a name." Mai said, narrowing her eyes at the red head.

"Yea and it's big tits."

Shizuru smiled though all this and caught the attention of her crush, "Another night then, Natsuki-chan?"

The girl blushed once more, pouting and looking at the ground, "Y-Yea, sure."

"Ara..."
