It felt like forever, but Reiji and Adryn finally made it to the beach. They were to stay in one of the condominiums there that were literally only a few steps away from the sand. Adryn was thrilled to be there and was completely ready to tear off her clothes, put on her swimsuit and dive into the waters, despite her not being able to fully swim. Reiji was also thrilled to be able to finally do things as a couple. They had been so busy with working that they hadn't gotten a chance to do anything more than a few quick kisses.

So, both being overly excited, they quickly dropped their belongings off in their condo and changed into their swimsuits. Adryn wore a blue bikini top with black swim shorts and Reiji wore green and black swim trunks. Once they were dressed, they headed out to the beach. However, they quickly remembered to put on sunscreen so they paused to do that first. Now, ready for the beach the couple practically ran to the water. Thankfully, there were mostly just families around with young children so there weren't really many people who would recognize either of them.

"So, my darling, what shall we do first?" Reiji questioned the female at his side. Adryn smiled at her boyfriend and set down the beach bag she was holding. She then reached inside and pulled out a sandcastle making kit.

"I wanna build stuff." It was surprisingly childish for the female to say, and it slightly shocked Reiji to see that she wasn't just a ball of anger and nervousness which most people saw her as.

"That's a great idea!" Reiji smiled brightly at the girl and sat down next to her bag. Following him, she sat down and opened up the kit before dumping it all out. There were shovels and buckets to mold the sand along with various other tools to play in the sand.

Seeing all of the brightly colored items, it drew in some young children along with their parents who were following them. Being kind people at heart, Reiji and Adryn allowed the kids to use their things and it turned into a huge sandcastle making party. Children and their parents joined in with Reiji and Adryn and they all made a large sandcastle, well more of a sand palace that even had a moat going around it.

Eventually, the couple decided to leave the sandcastle making supplies with the families that were using them and go off alone. Before they left, they took a few pictures of their creation with their phones so they could show their group members later on. Instead of wandering around aimlessly, the two seemed to be thinking the same thoughts and headed towards the same place without any words. Their destination was a little bar/beach shop on the sand a good ways away from the water. It was one of the places that were advertised in one of the brochures they'd gotten from the lobby of the condos.

"I guess we had the same ideas." Reiji chuckled once he realized that his girlfriend had the same idea as he did, however, he was a bit shocked to find out that their ideas weren't exactly the same.

"We did have the same idea to come here, but..." Adryn smirked and began to walk away from him. "I came here to get some alcohol." Reiji sighed but smiled as he watched her walk away. They had the conversation about alcohol a while ago. It was usually frowned upon to drink while in the dorms because of the underage people there, and also for the sake of the idol's reputation. However, it wasn't a hidden secret within Shining Entertainment that Adryn enjoyed drinking every now and then. Reiji wasn't into drinking too much, so he figured that she wouldn't return with anything for him.

Reiji, realizing that he was just standing there watching his girlfriend, headed into the shop part of the bar/beach shop. He looked all over for the perfect umbrella and was excited when he'd found the one he was searching for. It was big enough that both him and Adryn could comfortably lay under together, and it had side walls to give them extra privacy. As he was looking for that, he'd collected other things along the way. He found some cute novelty cups and other things he planned on using as souvenirs for the other three of QUARTET NIGHT.

"Hey, I was wondering where you went." Adryn's sudden voice behind him slightly startled him. He was finally on his way to pay for the items he'd collected and nearly dropped a few of them when she spoke up.

"You startled me." Reiji was chuckling, but he was genuinely freaked out. Adryn helped him carry a few of his things as an apology, while she was also carrying her bag with food and drinks now within it. "So what did you get us?"

"You'll see." Now that he had help, Reiji was able to successfully check out all of his items and stuff them into the bag Adryn was carrying. He was now thankful for her deceptively large bag. He didn't think all he'd bought, minus the umbrella, would fit in her bag, but it turned out to be a bottomless pit.

Once the two left the shop they looked around for the best spot to set up their umbrella. Thankfully, most of the people were off to one side of the beach, so there were quite a few places to choose from. So, wanting the most privacy they chose a spot furthest away from the others. Reiji set up the umbrella while Adryn laid out their beach towels. She got finished quicker than he did, so she went over to him to help him. It took them over 10 minutes to figure out how to fully put the umbrella together. It would have gone faster, but the instructions blew away and disappeared so quick they had no chance of going after the sheet of paper.

"I think I could fall asleep like this." Reiji declared as he leaned back against his towel once everything was finally set up. Adryn smiled and laid down on her towel as well. She was facing him, watching the relaxed look on his face, as he faced up with his eyes closed. Even though he couldn't see her, he was aware that his girlfriend was watching him. He quickly turned towards her and opened his eyes, catching her off guard, since she really didn't want to be caught staring at him. "Hey there," Reiji smirked at how red Adryn's face was becoming.

"Uh... Hi?" Adryn wasn't quite sure how to react. The male wasn't looking at her like he usually did. He was looking at her in a less appropriate and serious way. "Just what is going on in your mind?"

"Do you really want to know?" His voice was teasing, which slightly concerned the female.

"I'm not sure anymore." Adryn laughed in nervousness. Reiji just smirked at the girl before sitting up. He motioned for her to sit up as well, which she did, of course. She was still confused, but she trusted the male to not do anything crazy.

"You seem nervous, Adryn." The female visibly jolted at the use of her name in such a different voice. It was a voice full of emotion, real emotion, unlike his usual tone.

"Well I mean when you talk and look like that, I'm gonna get freaking nervous." Adryn was going to start panicking over the sudden change in his personality. He just smirked at her and reached out to grab a hold of her hand.

"Do you trust me?"

"I suppose so?"

"Close your eyes." His smirking face was the last thing she saw before she hesitantly followed his command and closed her eyes. She had a feeling what was about to happen, but she still wasn't ready for it.

Reiji slowly leaned forward and pressed his lips against Adry n's lips. It was such a cliche thing for them to think, but they could feel sparks when they kissed. The initial kiss didn't last long, at least not long enough for Adryn. As Reiji began to lean back, Adryn reached up and pulled Reiji back to her, before pushing her own lips against his. It felt like a dream, or more like finally fulfilling a dream. She had wanted to be close to him ever since she first developed a crush on him, and she was now finally getting to. The feelings she now felt made her almost believe in Ember's ranting about how true love existed.

Once the two got done kissing each other, they had remained under their umbrella for a little while longer. They chatted about various things, but eventually packed everything up and returned the umbrella. They had spent enough time in the heat and sand and had decided it was time to just go and get cleaned up. They took separate showers before changing into nicer clothes to go to a slightly fancy restaurant.

They had a fantastic dinner together, much to Adryn's surprise. It was quite romantic, which was something the female wasn't truly used to. Reiji had wanted to woo his girlfriend with the nice dinner and was extremely happy when his plan was a success. He had more plans as well, but since they already had such a busy day, he figured he'd just wait to put those plans into motion until another day.

"I really appreciate all you've done for me today." Adryn shyly muttered to the brown-haired male on their way back to the condos. He proudly smiled at her and shook his head.

"I just wanted to show the woman I adore how much she means to me." His words caused the blush to appear on Adryn's face once again. She was so embarrassed and had to look out her window to hide how red she really was, even though he probably wouldn't have been able to see it in the dim lighting of his car. The girl couldn't bring herself to say anything, so they remained in a comfortable silence the rest of the way to the condo.

Since they didn't really stay to look around either of the times they actually entered their condo, they spent some time adventuring around. They noticed that they had a little kitchen, along with two bathrooms, which they didn't notice before. They also finally realized that there was only one bedroom, and it had one bed; a king-sized bed.

"So... um... what?" Neither of the two could understand why Shining would get them a condo with only one bedroom with only one bed. It was almost like he knew that the two were going to end up together, even though they didn't even know it until that night in the car.

"I guess it's fine... I mean I do like cuddling as I sleep anyways..." Adryn shyly admitted to her boyfriend. "Just no inappropriate things. I will hurt you." Reiji put up his hands to show he wasn't going to do anything, but his smirk didn't say anything innocent.

"Now now Adryn, I didn't know you were into such things." His smirk was suggesting very inappropriate things, which caused the female to just glare at him.

"Hmm... Well, I guess that statement isn't necessarily untrue. I do have a thing with biting." With that, the girl went into the bathroom to change into her sleeping clothes, leaving her now stunned boyfriend to stand in the bedroom.

"Huh? Wait, come back, you need to tell me more!" Reiji called out, his face dusted with pink; blushing over what the girl's statement meant. In response to his response, he could only hear his girlfriend laughing at his shock instead of giving him an actual response. Reiji would have to let it go for now, but he knew for sure that he would be asking her more about it later on. He couldn't just let something so fascinating about his girlfriend go so easily.
