Hey,guys... I'd still like some ideas for Mina's transformation... And,this will be the last chapter I write for a few weeks. Definitely. I'll try to update when I can,so check up every once in while,okay? Good.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"Mina,I still can't belive you ditched school three weeks ago!"Haru laughed as the whole group walked home from school. Mina rolled her eyes.

"Well,that Mr. Kimmoto was getting on my last nerve. And I didn't want to lose it completely in front of our principle,now did I?"she asked them,and they agreed to that statement.

"Hey,everybody! I've got some good news!"Momiji exclaimed. They all looked at him. "My dad says that we can all go for a trip! He's paying for it!"Momiji said again.

"A trip? Where?"Mina asked.

"Well,since it's now Spring Break,we all can go to the beach!"Momiji said again,and Mina looked excited.

"Momiji,no I couldn't accept it! Not after when you took us to the spas that while ago!"Tohru said frantically.

"Awww!! Pleeeeease Tohruuuuu??"he asked her. "Mina's gonna go,right?"Momiji grabbed Mina's good arm. Her hurt arm didn't require a sling,but it still needed to be re-bandaged constantly. Mina looked over at him,and she nodded with a smile. "See? Will you pleeeeease come with us?"he asked her again.

"Well,I know that I'd like to go and relax."Haru said,and Momiji smiled.

"I'll go,Momiji."Yuki said. Kyo felt like they were all looking at him. He looked over towards them,and indeed they were.

"What? Oh,okay! I'll go..."he said reluctantly.

"Well,if everyone else is going... Okay!"Tohru said,and Momiji cheered. Mina looked at Tohru.

"Hey,Tohru. Do you want to go shopping tomorrow?"she asked her. Tohru smiled and nodded.

"I'd love to!"she said,and Mina smiled as well.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"So,Mina. What do you want to look for?"Tohru asked as they walked through the mall. They recieved some whistles and yells from alot of guys. Mina gave them all deadly glares.

"I was thinking that we'd go shopping for some swimsuits."she said,and Tohru looked at her funny.

"We?"she asked.

"Yup. I'm gonna buy you one,too. Depending on how expensive,though. I'm limited on money."she said.

"But,I brought money,too! I'll buy my own! You don't need to buy one for me,Mina!"she said,and Mina sighed.

"Okay,okay! God,I was trying to be nice."she said. As a few teenage boys walked by,Mina felt something brush against her rear. She turned around,and grabbed the guy's arm. "You pervert!!!"she yelled and threw him ten feet away. He landed in the wishing fountain. People started laughing at him.

Tohru and Mina had stopped walking. She turned to all the other guys. "That same thing will happen to all you perverts if you touch me or my friend again!!!"she roared at them,and they shrunk away from her. She turned and took Tohru into a store selling summer/spring clothes.

"Mina,look at this one!"Tohru said,and held up a white one-piece bathing suit.

"I hope you're saying it's for you."she said,and Tohru sighed. Mina picked one up,it was a black two-peice bathing suit with a red cat on it. She showed it to Tohru.

"What? That?! No,I couldn't! It's too revealing!"she said shaking her head wildly.

"Oh,come on,Tohru,atleast try it on!"Mina said,shoving it into Tohru's hands and then pushing her into a vacant changing room. Tohru came out a few minutes later.

"See,Tohru? You look so pretty in it!"she said,and Tohru blushed a bit.

"You think so?"she asked her,and Mina rolled her eyes.

"I just said it,didn't I?"Mina said.

"Alright,if I buy this one,I get to pick out yours. Deal?"Tohru said,and Mina sighed.

"Oh,alright."she said,and Tohru went back into the changing room and got into her regular clothes. After that,she bought the two-peice Mina had chosen.

"Here! This one!"Tohru showed Mina a purple two-peice bathing suit with a dark-gray mouse on it,after searching half the store for one that she thought Mina would like. Mina went into the changing room and came out. "You look really good in it!"she said,and Mina blushed. She changed back into her regular clothes and bought the bathing suit.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"Yay! You're back!! Hury and pack because we're leaving tonight!"Momiji said as soon as they walked through the door.

"WHAT?!"Mina and Tohru yelled and looked at the clock. It was a little after four-thirty. "When tonight are we leaving?"Tohru asked.

"Five-thirty!"Momiji said,and the two girls ran upstairs with their bags.

After thirty minutes of packing,the two girls came downstairs with one bag per person.

"My dad says that he's paying for the gas milage of the van and for our meals!"Momiji told them,and they smiled. "Hey,what were in the bags you brought home?"Momiji asked them.

"Our new swim suits."Mina said. Tohru nodded. They ate dinner. Then,after Mina argued with Kyo,Kyo agrued with Yuki,and Mina hit Kyo for agruing with Yuki,and Haru and Momiji watched,the van got there.

"Come on,guys!"Tohru said as they walked to the car. Once everyone was in,Momiji told them that the drive was going to be three hours.

"WHAT?! You've GOT to be kidding me!!!"Kyo yelled,and they took off for the hotel,that was just five minutes away from the beach by car.

Kyo and Mina still weren't getting along very well even half-way through. Mina was trying to take a nap,but Kyo decided to pester her.

"Will you shut up?! I'm trying to sleep!!!!"she yelled,and punched him on the jaw. She turned away from him,and right when she began to fall asleep,Kyo slicked her on the ear. She grabbed his hand and growled at him. She twisted his arm around to his back.

"Okay,okay!! I give!"he said,and she let him go. Yuki put his arm around Mina's shoulders,and she leaned against him. She drifted to sleep,feeling safe next to him.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"This is where we're staying?!"they all gasped as they opened the door to the hotel room. Mina gaped at the giant room.

"This is the suite. There are two rooms in the suite. A regular bedroom,and this living room. There are two bathrooms,and a kitchen. The two couches are pull-outs,so there's already two beds in here."the bell-boy told them,and handed each of them a key to the suite. "I hope you enjoy your visit."he told them again,and closed the door behind him as he left.

"I call the futon!!"Mina and Kyo said in unision,and they glared at eachother.

"I want the futon!"Mina said,and Kyo growled.

"No way! I'm not sleeping in the same room as that rat!"He said,and Mina growled at him in return.

"Well,I'm not sleeping in the same room as you!"she said,and Kyo yelled in frustration.

"Whatever! God!"he said,and took his bag into the bedroom and slammed the door. Mina smirked and stuck her tongue out.

"But I wanna stay out here,toooo!!"Momiji whined to Haru,who sighed.

"Let Momiji stay out here! Tohru and I are out here,and we'd like the company."Mina said,and Haru put his hands up in defense.

"Okay,okay!"he said,and put his bag in the bedroom. Yuki gave Mina a smile and put his bag into the bedroom.

"Yay!!!"Momiji jumped onto Mina and hugged her. She hugged him back. After everyone got settled in where they were going to sleep,it was nine o'clock at night.

Momiji wound up sleeping with Tohru on the pull-out bed on the couch,and Mina slept on the futon. Mina woke up and looked at her watch. It read one thirty-two. She yawned,and turned over. She closed her eyes,but couldn't fall back asleep. She rolled over,and accidentally fell off of the matress. She hit the floor with a thump,and groaned in pain. She sat up and rubbed her head. Yuki came out,wondering what the noise was. He saw Mina on the floor,and went to her side.

"Are you okay?"he asked her quietly. She nodded and got up. She sat down on the futon again,and Yuki sat next to her. "You sure?"he asked,and she nodded.

"Um,is it okay if you could stay here for a few minutes? I can't get back to sleep."Mina said,and Yuki nodded with a small smile. They sat there for a few minutes,talking quietly to eachother to keep awake. Mina noticed Yuki was shivering slightly. She gave him a bit of the covers. They eventually both dozed off,in eachother's arms.

"Hey,you two lovebirds! Get up!"Momiji said,shaking them awake. Yuki and Mina opened their eyes,and saw the four people staring at them. Yuki blushed,and Mina turned scarlet red. Mina got up went into the bathroom. She washed her face with cold water,and dried off. She came back out and Haru was saying something to Yuki. Which made Yuki punch him in embarassment and anger. Mina walked over to everyone.

"So,what are we doing today?"Mina asked them,after looking at the clock. It was a little past eleven forty-five

"Well,we just ordered lunch. We all woke up really late so we missed breakfast today. Lunch should be here in thirty minutes,and then we'll head out to the beach. Does that sound good?"Tohru said,and they all nodded.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

They waited fifteen minutes after they ate before they headed to the beach. Mina and Tohru deided to make the swimswuits a surprise for the rest of the boys until they got to the beach. So,after they got into the swimsuits,they put some shorts and t-shirts on over them.

"Yay,we're finally going to the beach!!"Momiji said,and Tohru gave him a smile. The van stopped,and they saw many people out. Swimming,tanning,whatever. There were little kids running around everywhere. Momiji ran to the water as soon as everyone was out of the van and had what they needed,and jumped in.

Yuki told the driver when to come back,and the man drove off. Tohru and Mina walked over to a sunny spot,and laid down their towells. They put up an umbrella. Kyo put his towell down a few feet away from the girls,and Yuki set his towell down near them. Haru set his towell down a few feet away. He sat down and laughed as Momiji came running back.

"Cold! Cold!"he yelled,and grabbed his towell. He laid it down in the sun and sat down,warming up. Yuki looked back over at the girls,and his eyes widened as he saw them in their swimsuits. He felt the color rush to his face. Mina put sun lotion on her skin,and rubbed it in. She laid back down and let the sun warm her body.

"Hey,Momiji. Let's go put our feet in the wet sand!"Tohru said,and Momiji chered and followed her to the shore. Yuki heard Mina laughing,which made him smile. He liked it when she laughed. She got up and put her sandals on.

"Where are you going?"he asked her,and she turned to him. He noticed the design on her swimsuit,and smiled. "Let me guess,Tohru picked it out for you?"he said,and Mina nodded with a smile.

"I wanted to go to the dock. It's been ten years since I went to a beach."she said,and Yuki got up.

"Can I go with you?"he asked her,and she nodded. They walked over to the dock,and sat down. Mina looked dreamily at the shining water,watching as the birds flew overhead of the people swimming. Yuki got up. "Are you thirsty?"he asked Mina,who smiled and nodded. "I'll go get some water."he said,and walked over to the spot on the beach where they placed the cooler. He took out two water bottles,and walked back. He overheard some boys talking about Mina.

"I dare you to go over and sit next to her,then push her into the water."the slightly taller one said.

"Okay."the shorter one said,and began to walk over to Mina. Yuki quickened his pace. He heard what he was saying to Mina.

"Hey,cutie. How about we go talk a walk?"he asked,and Mina scooted slightly away from him. "Don't be like that,babe. Come on,walk with me."he said,and he put his arm around her waist. Mina slapped him and stood up. The boy stood up as well,holding his cheek. He grabbed her arm,about to push her off dock. Yuki cleared his throat behind him. The boy turned around.

"What do you think you're doing?"he asked the boy,who let go of Mina's arm. Mina walked over to Yuki,who protectively put his arm around her waist and pulled her closer to him,and Yuki glared at him. He dropped the water bottles down next to him.

"Oh,sorry,man."the boy said,and Yuki pushed him off of the dock. They heard a splash and walked away,Mina carrying the water bottles.

"Mina,did that guy do anything to you?"he asked her,his worry showing in his eyes.

"All he did was grab me by my waist."she said,looking down at the ground. Yuki threw the water bottles onto his towell,and he led her to the water,and he released her from his embrace. Mina smiled and waded into the water to her waist,and let her body get used to it. She submerged herself into the water,and came back up. She looked around,but she didn't see Yuki. She yelped as something pulled her underneath the surface. She came back up and saw Yuki laughing. She scowled at him. She swam towards him,and his eyes widened. He swam away,but she caught up to him anyway. She grabbed his hand and he pulled her close to him. Mina struglled to get out of his grasp,but failed.

"No fair!"she laughed,and Yuki laughed as well. Yuki kicked his legs as he swam them out farther. He released Mina from his grip and they swam in the cool ocean water. Mina felt as if she was flying underwater. Yuki watched Mina as she gracefully performed a butterfly stroke. He went underwater,and quietly came up behind Mina. He grabbed her and tickled her. She laughed and tried to push him away,but that only encouraged him to embrace her again. She gave in and they swam closer to the shore. Yuki submerged himself under the water,letting it cool off his skin. He came back up ,and looked for Mina. He didn't see her.

"Yuki!"Mina yelled,and Yuki turned around. There she was. He gasped. She was riding a dolphin! It took her under the water,and came back up. She got off and swam toward Yuki. "That was so cool!!"she said,laughing. The dolphin sqeaked,and went back under the water. Yuki laughed as well.

"Looks like you were having fun!"he said,and they swam back to the shore. They walked over to their spot,and sat on their towells.

"That was a nice swim. I haven't gone swimming at a beach for awhile,and I have to say,it was fun."Mina said with a bright smile. Yuki scooted next to her,and put his arm around her waist. Kyo and Haru were racing eachother in the water,and Tohru and Momiji were eating at the snack bar. Mina looked at Yuki,and she pressed her lips to his. Yuki was taken aback at first,but he kissed her back anyway. Yuki put his hand on her cheek,and they broke apart. Yuki's face turned red,and Mina's face was scarlet.

"I... I love you,Mina."Yuki got out after a moment of awkard silence.
