Theme: Relaxation
Not much to this chapter. I just figured I'd give the characters a break from all the craziness. :)
"Alright class, I've got some good news for you today." Yukio had just walked into class and after what he just said, the exwires were whispering to each other wondering what the news could be. "Quiet down or it won't happen." The class got quiet quick. "Okay, a couple weeks back, if you all remember, we got a mission about a firebreathing chicken."
"Ha! Yea, that basan! That was a waste of time!" Shima retorted.
"Anyway," Yukio pointed a glance at Shima, "The mayor of that town wanted to thank us for getting rid of it. He gave each of us a two day pass to a hot springs resort." Excited chatter broke out among the exwires. Yukio continued, ignoring the exwires' talking. "The passes start this weekend. There will be a bus to take us there at 8am Saturday morning. Please pair up with who you will be rooming with and I will see you all on Saturday." He dismissed the class, and him and Rin headed back to their dorm.
Rin was in the kitchen making dinner for him and his brother. Yukio was leaning on the counter watching him. He always did enjoy watching him cook because he knew it made him happy. Though, he would never admit that to Rin. He must have been staring because he caught Rin's attention.
"What are you staring at four-eyes?" Rin questioned but smiled.
"Oh, nothing, just thinking."
Rin was about to ask what he was thinking about, but Yukio didn't give him the chance to ask.
"So what are you making, anyway?" Yukio tried to change the subject.
"Just a stir fry; it's almost done." A few minutes later, Rin turned off the fire to the stove and served the food.
At the table, Yukio finally spoke up about what he's been wanting to talk about. "So…" He hesitated. "Have you paired with anyone for the resort?"
"Yea, I thought that would be obvious. Bon and I are pairing up." Rin took a bite of his food.
"Yes, that's what I figured. But Rin, I think, as your teacher and brother, I need to advise against that."
Rin almost choked on his food. "Why?! You really think we'd do anything? Or do you just not trust us?!" Rin's temper was rising.
"No it's not that. But it is the same reason the school as their 'no co-ed' dorms. Boys can't room with girls and girls can't room with boys. I realize you are both boys but- ugh." He couldn't think of how to word his point without sounding rude. He took a breath and spoke again. "The point I am trying to get at is that the school does not want anyone rooming with someone they are in a relationship with. It is the school's policy, not mine."
Rin calmed down and understood his brother's point. "Okay, well, then I don't have anyone to pair with."
"We will have to see who is paired with who on Saturday morning."
The both finished their diner and headed to bed.
Saturday morning came and everyone was in front of the school loading their stuff onto the bus. Only one person was missing.
"Sorry I'm late!" Rin was running down the path with his tie half done. "I overslept again."
Yukio and Izumo rolled their eyes, Shima and Konekomaru laughed. Bon fixed Rin's tie and helped load his stuff onto the bus. Yukio and the others watched Rin lead Bon away and was talking to him. They both looked upset. They rejoined the group with everyone staring at them. Yukio took everyone's attention off of them.
"Alright, we have run into a slight problem. I need to know who everyone is paired up with."
Shima and Koneko raised their hands together, then Izumo and Shiemi raised their hands together. Rin and Bon raised their hands together and everyone looked at them 'knowingly'. Yukio glared at his brother, and they put their hands down.
"Shima, Miwa, would you mind having a third person in your room?" He gestured to Bon. "Then Rin can just room with me."
Before either of them could answer, another voice interrupted them. "Or he could just room with me~"
Everyone turned and saw a fiery redhead wearing hardly anything.
Yukio's face had a mixture of surprise and annoyance. "Shura? Why are you here?"
"Well that's rude. What happened to a nice hello~?" Shura walked up and leaned on the bus and laughed at the fact that Shima was staring at her chest. "I was serious though~, let the kid room with me." She smiled manipulatively and threw an arm around Rin's shoulders and pressed her breasts against him. She didn't fail to notice Bon's face get beet red.
"But Ms. Kirigakure, isn't that against school policy?" Koneko questioned.
"Yea, besides, w-wouldn't I make a better roommate?" Shima was drooling.
Rin heard Koneko whisper something about Shima being a monk.
"Nyaa~ This one here is without a roomie, and besides I'm a teacher, he'll be fine~"
Rin gulped.
Yukio sighed, knowing he wouldn't be able to talk her out of it. "Well I guess Bon will be rooming with me." He rubbed the bridge of his nose in annoyance.
"Wait, seriously? You are allowing that?" Izumo looked shocked
"Well she is a teacher. I think that makes her responsible enough to room with a boy," Shiemi spoke a bit nervously.
Izumo scoffed at her innocence.
Shima pulled Bon away from the group and whispered. "Bon, you are okay with this? I mean, geez, even you had to have noticed how big her boobs are."
"Yes it annoys me that she is all over him, but if you are asking if I trust Rin to room with her without anything happening, then yes I trust him fully." Bon saw Rin smile. He smacked Shima.
"What was that for?" Shima was rubbing his head.
"You idiot, you know he can hear us?"
Rin grinned broadly.
"Oh, right… demon hearing."
After arriving at the resort, the girls and guys had already split up and gone to their corresponding hot springs.
Bon was just getting into the water and Koneko noticed Rin blush a bit. "Damn, he's hot," Rin whispered under his breath. Konekomaru snickered and Rin blushed even more then sank further into the water.
Bon settled into the water and let out and audible sigh. "This is just what I needed." He looked around. "Where's Rin?"
"Umm…" Koneko pointedly looked at the bubbles coming up from the water.
Bon looked puzzled. "How long, exactly, has he been down there?"
"Several minutes, now," Koneko answered.
"Wow! He can really hold his breath!" Shima exclaimed.
"Why do you sound so surprised? After everything you have learned about his demonic abilities?" Yukio chuckled.
"Oh, duh." He sank into the water, too, but came up after only a few seconds. "Woah, it's too hot to submerge my head!"
Rin finally came up and everyone was looking at him. "W-what?"
"Umm, your face is really red…" Bon said slowly.
Rin's face got redder. "R-r-really? It's, uh, 'cause of the, uh, hot water, yea."
Bon whispered to Konekomaru. "I thought the heat didn't affect him."
Koneko snickered.
"So why did you offer to room with Rin?" Izumo asked Shura after the girls settled into their water.
"'Cause that torch needs to continue his training. I'll probably keep him up late tonight doing some more sets of those candles~ He hasn't done any in way too long just 'cause I've been gone." Shura leaned back, relaxing in the hot water.
"But Ms. Kirigakure-" Shiemi started but was interrupted.
"Come on kid, just call me Shura. We're on vacation~"
"Well, Ms. Shura, isn't that exactly the reason Rin shouldn't be doing his training. I think he needs some relaxation." Shiemi was wringing her hands together nervously.
Shura sat up, seeming to think about her words. "Hmm, yea, I guess you're right. He can restart training after vacation is over. Besides," Shura smiled knowingly, "something tells me he won't get much sleep tonight anyway."
This one came out a bit longer than expected and I'm still not done, so I decided to make it two chapters instead of one. Sorry if it is a bit boring, but I finally brought Shura in! I'm not sure how well I did with her character, she is kind of a hard one for me, so let me know what y'all think! I am officially a fourth of the way there! 25 down, 75 to go! Until next chapter,
