Hawaii Trip

Airport

Akira, Ann, Makoto, and Ryuji were waiting in the airport to get on the plane with the other students to Hawaii

"Alright! Finally the school trip! I wonder how Hawaii is?" "Hawaii? Sounds tropical! Maybe we can find some booty thar!"

"It is tropical, but I doubt you'll find treasure there, unless you think beach guys and girls are considered treasure." "So it's basically a popular beach area?" "Pretty much but it will be interesting since it's across the ocean from us."

"How do you know so much about it, Akira?" "Maybe he researched it with one of those folding screen things with the letters on the bottom and the pointy thing on the screen." "Carmen...for the last time it's called a laptop…"

"Yeah I did Carmen, once I heard about our trip." "Well, you're always on top of things."

"Like wha' Carmen wants wit' Ars…"

"W-Why don't we take a picture together?" Makoto says interrupting Kidd. "Picture?" "Yes, they capture moments to remember them forever." "Oh, I lived in a time where there was no such thing. Come to think of it; you also used that thing to record their voices so I shouldn't be surprised."

Everyone agrees upon it and go into position. Akira and Ann stood next to each other while Ryuji stood behind them with his arm around Akira's shoulder and with a thumb up with his other hand. Makoto stands in front of Ann but turns sideways to not block her and lifts up her phone; "Now on the count of 3. 1…2…3!" On three, Akira puts an arm around Ann's waist and kisses her on the cheek which made her blush deeply. After taking the picture, she looked at it and there was a brief moment of sadness on her face but brushes it off then shows everyone.

Ryuji laughs seeing the couple being cliche; " You guys are like the basic couple!" "Oh please, ye wish ye can be like 'em wit' that lass, Hifumi!" "Dude, shut up…"

Ann pouts towards Akira; "You jerk! You should have told me you were going to do that!" "Ann, are you really complaining about that!? That was the sweetest thing ever!" "I-I know but it caught me off guard…"

He laughs; "I'm sorry Ann, I thought it was a good moment, I didn't think you would blush that red." "I taught you well, my friend."

They then hear Futaba's voice coming out of Makoto's phone; "Aw, you two are so cute together!" "Aw, my brother's partner is such a gentleman!" "Oh yeah, there's something on your shirt, Ryuji…"

Ryuji looks down and indeed sees a stain; "Damn it...I forgot that I dropped some food during breakfast…" "Mighty matey, how can ye get a strumpet if ye can nah even keep swab…"

On the Airplane

Akira and Ryuji were sitting next to each other with the latter looking out the window; "Man...It's like being on Kaneshiro's again but the view is actually better cause of the ocean and none of the weirdness of Metaverse!" "We shall go on a galleon next! I can feel like a pirate again!"

Akira laughs; "Well I can't really see the view. Anyways, how are you and Hifumi doing?" "Did our advice work?"

"Yeah! After I told her that you suggested her to me about learning Shogi, she volunteered! So, we've been texting each other about Shogi but now she's telling me about how her mother keeps using her fame to get money cause her father is too sick to work…" "He hasn't written her back cause he doesn't know wha' t' say…"

"Well, just say that; she should keep doing what she loves and have her tell her mom that she doesn't want to do those things. Just make sure you're there for her and keep giving her advice even if you don't think it's the right advice." "That's what Akira does with Ann all the time."

He sighs looking down; "I'm just afraid of messing up like I usually do…" "Aye, ye mess up a lot, but ye're still a great ship-mate!"

"Yeah, Kidd's right, you're a great person, don't look down on yourself so much." "You're already doing a great job, just keep doing what you been doing."

Ryuji thinks on that for a while but sighs because he still didn't think he was; "Y'know how I've been calling Morgana useless. I don't mean it, I just want to get back at him for calling me idiot and useless all the time. He is right, I'm just an idiot and useless…" "Are ye mighty going t' listen t' that scallywag!?"

"Okay, yeah, you may not be the smartest person but you're far from useless. You're our informant and not only that, you put your heart into the PT and you never give up. Besides, Morgana's a narcissist, don't let it get to you." "Yeah, Morgana's far from a gentleman as well."

He looks back up at him smiling; "Thanks guys, it means a lot to me. I'm glad that we met, I probably would've kept hating myself for fighting back against Kamoshida or solve everything with violence, so thanks man." "I'll say it again; ye mighty are a great cap'n!"

"Thanks Kidd and you're welcome, Ryuji." "I'm proud of you, Akira."

Meanwhile

Ann and Makoto were sitting next to each other at an other part of the plane

"What's wrong? Aren't you excited for our trip, Makoto?" Ann asks noticing how quiet she was being "I'm jealous! I want to enjoy the beach physically!"

Makoto sighs; "Yes, I'm excited…I'm just thinking about things." "Hm, well I can always take off my metal parts to enjoy the beach if we were able to."

Ann knew she was still thinking about Akira, she had notice her have a look of sadness when she looked at the photo and it was one of the reasons why she didn't want to be lovely dovey in front of her; "I'm sorry Makoto, Akira was just trying to be affectionate." "Stop trying to make Akira out to be like a bad guy." Carmen whispers. "I'm not! I'm trying to make Makoto feel better…" "Wait what!? You can remove your metal parts, Anat!?"

"No, I don't want you two to not be affectionate for my sake. I want you two to be happy." "Yes I can. Think of my metal parts as armor and I can remove them at will."

"I still feel bad though. You're my friend; I don't want to see you hurt..." "You do know that I have to see this now."

"I appreciate that greatly but your happiness comes first. And yes, I might get sad but I rather see you happy, Ann." "Only if I can get a kiss from Arsene…I'm just joking."

Ann puts her arm around her shoulder in comfort; "Thank you, Makoto." "Oh, you were just joking? I was going to let you; I mean it's just a kiss, right?"

"You're welcome, Ann. So, um, how's it like to be with Akira?" "W-what!? Are you serious about the kiss? Wait, you're teasing me again! You know what Carmen; I will get you back some day!"

She smiles big wanting to have girl talk; "It's the greatest! Even though he's calm and collected in public, he's really shy and awkward when we're alone even though I'm the same way…but he's so nice and caring even more than usual!" "Hmmm, I would like to see that, but be warned you can't make a seductress lose her composure so easily."

"I know I'm torturing myself for asking for my curiosity, but I wish I can see that side of Akira…" She gives her a fake smiles; "I can never imagine Akira being shy or awkward." "Oh, just you wait…"

Ann laughs; "Oh trust me, it's the best!" "I'm looking forward to it dear Anat."

"You'll never see it coming!"

Hawaii Beach

Akira, Ann, and Ryuji were on the beach trying to figure out what to do.

Ryuji looks around; "Well is there anything do here?" "Let's go look fer some booty!" "I'm just going to guess you're talking about treasure…"

Akira starts looking around as well; "Well I read that there's fire twirling, Luau, hula dancing, eating, or swimming." "What is a Luau and Hula Dancing?" "Well hula dancing is basically a Hawaiian Dance that involves swaying your arms and hips along a chant, and a Luau is basically a outside Hawaiian party but I don't see anyone doing it."

"Well, why don't we hula dance?" "Ooooo, using your hips huh…"

Ryuji sighs; "I don't feel like learning to hula dance." "Plus, I doubt ye'd know how t' dance, Cap'n. Punchin' Down while horribly singin'…" "Let's just get some food..." The other two nod and they walk to the food stand getting some shrimp; "Well at least the food is good." "I love seafood!"

"Even though I don't care about our fame, I can't believe that we're famous out here too." "Well we our stealing people's hearts. Wouldn't it be interesting to the whole world?" "I guess you're right."

Ann sighs; "That's cool and all...But we're just doing the same thing we usually do…" "Well at least we got to enjoy the sites then…" "Let's just go back…"

"Well this is a day wasted…" "Ahoy! I got t' eat seafood somewhat! So me day wasn't wasted!"

Hotel Room

Akira was lying on the bed trying to fall asleep but Ryuji's snoring wasn't helping any but that's when Arsene talks to him

"Akira, mind if I ask you something?"

"Of course, what's up?"

"Well it's about your courtship with Ann. I've never seen you touch her or caress her ever besides hugging her and putting your arm around her shoulders."

"Um, are you talking about grouping her!?"

"What!? No! I'm talking about softly touching and caressing her body but not her private parts unless she lets you or wants you to. Basically what I'm saying is to be bold."

"I-I guess so, I just don't want her to think of me as a pervert…"

"Sometimes you have to make a lady feel wanted in a relationship. Just try and do it but if she gets mad, just blame me."

"Aright then. You know, I'm sure Carmen would probably die if you don't touch her at least once during our trips to the metaverse."

"You have no idea…"

Outside of the Hotel

Akira, Ann and Ryuji were standing outside the Hotel Entrance waiting for Makoto. After thirty minutes, a taxi pulls up with Makoto coming out and slamming the door with a scowl on her face. She then walks up to the three; "I didn't come overseas to hear someone complain!" "That man was so arrogant! I think he said fuck around fifty times!" "Just because I told you that people say that when they get really upset, doesn't mean you are allowed to say it all the time."

"Yeah...I heard that taxi drivers were pretty bad…" "Fuck? What word does that word even mean?" "Well, there's multiple ways to say it. One that Carmen would know a lot about." Akira chuckles.

"Please don't teach her that…" "Wait? Is that another way to say ravish?" "U-Uh, no!" "Arsene daring! Would you like to fu…"

Yusuke walks up interrupting Carmen; "You guys are being disrespectful..." "No respect…"

"Whoa, Yusuke! We thought you were going to Los Angeles. What happened?" "Ahoy mateys! Good t' see 'n hear ye two!"

He sighs; "That is correct, but we ran into a terrible storm so we had to land here." "Good to see you too, Captain."

"For real!? Does that mean Hifumi's here!?" Kidd crackles from Ryuji's enthusiasm; "Someone's happy!"

"Well yes, she was in the same plane as me." "Hmmm, Ryuji's happiness is suspicious…"

On the Beach

The guys were on the beach waiting for the girls but both Ryuji and Akira were looking at Yusuke because he was wearing a hoodie while it was hot outside

"You mind if I ask you something, Yusuke? Why do you wear a hoodie on the beach, don't you get hot in that?" "It is weird to wear something heavy in the heat but he doesn't seem to be sweating."

"Actually I wear it because I get sun-burned easily." "I hate the heat…"

"Okay, that makes perfect sense." "Oh yeah, didn't you die from being burned alive, Goemon?"

"Please don't remind me of that…" "Actually, I've been thinking a lot about our personas; do you remember your Arsene?"

Arsene sighs because he just walked into something that he didn't want to talk about now; "I…was afraid this conversation will happen…Even though it was my fault..." "I know it's probably bad to remember your death." He sighs again; "That's not it Akira. I may sound like a gentleman now...But from what I remembered is, is that I was more of a cocky bastard in my past life..." That confused Akira; "Really? I never imagine you being a cocky bastard." "I truly was...Let me explain; I was a gentleman thief and a master of disguise. I would outsmart everyone and use my charms to ease my way out of any situations. I would also solve crimes and even my own crimes, just to make a fool out of the police. I also remember in my past life having multiple lovers and had kids with them but I never told the kids my name because I didn't want them to be involved in my crimes. But…my cockiness finally got me killed...It all started when I was accused of murder. So, of course, I wanted to prove my innocence. But, during my investigation, I used my own daughter, Genevieve to marry an arch-duke named Pierre so I can control England. But, I fell in love with the murdered man's wife named Dolores but Pierre fell for her too and out of my own jealously, I threw him out the window and I then told Dolores my plan, and she agreed with it. But one night, while I was sleeping, the man that I thought was a murderer snuck into my room and tried to kill me but he didn't, I was so confused about what happened. So, I went back to Dolores room two days later to confirm some things about the murders but after I left, I saw someone in her room from the outside. So, I snuck back in there and that's when I choked the man who I thought was the murder and I…killed him and…and that's when I turned the light on and saw the face of D-Dolores." "You killed her!?" "Yes...and I started losing it because that's the only person I've killed but then I remembered when the murderer came to my room and didn't kill me, that's when I realized that she loved me and that was why I survived…but I soon found out that it was all part of her elaborate scheme to have another man tried for her murders. I raced to Paris to stop the execution but I was too late. That's when I started making excuses about the events that unfolded and still...I was planning on using my daughter again to marry Pierre." "I honestly don't know what to say…" "There's more, even though I told Pierre not to go into the castle…he went there but I only heard about it when I stayed at an inn and that's when I ran into the castle and saw him hanging there, he hung himself because he saw Dolores's dead body. That's when I faked my own death because no matter who I love, they all end up dead because of me and my bad luck. So after I faked my own death, I spent a week at an inn and that's when Genevieve's grandmother spotted me and I tried to go tell Genevieve that I'm her father but she kept telling me that I would be bringing her into my doomed fate and she would lose everything…So now with the deaths of three people because of me and not being able to see my daughter anymore...I committed suicide by jumping off a cliff and died…" "Arsene…is that why you've been hiding this because you think you're a terrible person?" "Of course I am! I tried to use my daughter for my own desires and not only that, three people died because of my selfishness as well! I even threw out a man out the window because of my jealously! I'm no better than Morgana and Zorro! "Knock it off Arsene! Yes, you may have done wrong in your past life but you've been reborn! Now's your chance to make amends for what you did!" "I...I guess you're right...but please don't tell Carmen she'll think I'm a murderer and not only that, what if she dies because of me and my bad luck…" "Arsene, Carmen loves you. She'll practically blow up if she doesn't say that she loves you everytime I see Ann, I highly doubt that she'll hate you for your past life." "So I'm going to have to tell her then…" "Of course, relationships become stronger when you tell your significant other your past mistakes." He sighs; "I guess I'll tell her the next time we go to the metaverse..." "Good."

"Yeah man, you're nothing like Morgana and Zorro! Sides, that woman sounded like she was playing everyone." "Aye, ye scuttled that lass 'cause ye thought that she was the murderer unlike me who scuttled me crewmates 'cause I got mad overthinkin' that me crew was formin' a munity!" "Dude really? That's pretty messed up…" "I know but believe me mateys! I won't do it t' me scallywags plus I don't wants t' hang from the gallows again!"

"If we're talking about our past mistakes, I uh…kinda had an affair with my master's wife..." "Well at least it's not bad as murdering someone…" "I killed her because she was an obstacle in my escape…" "Nevermind then…"

That's when Ann and Makoto arrive and Ann walks up to Akira then kisses him on his check; "Hey Akira! What are you guys talking about?" "Hello, my dear Arsey? How fare you today?"

"Nothing much, Arsene was telling us about the events leading up to his death." "…"

"Oh wow, so how did you die Arsene?" "I'm sure it was magnificent, sacrificing your life for a woman."

"I committed suicide…"

"What!?" "W-Why would you commit suicide!?"

"I-I'll tell you when we go to the metaverse again…" "Well...speaking of death, how did you die Carmen?"

"Oh, she doesn't remember. But, do any of you remember, your deaths?" All of the personas said yes. "Huh, your death must have been bad then Carmen if you can't remember." "Oh…yeah…" "So...you do know?" "I SAID I DON'T REMEMBER! NOW LEAVE ME ALONE!" Ann jumps back not expecting her to yell; "I-I'm sorry...I didn't mean to bug you…" "I-I'm sorry as well, I tell you when we're alone…"

"Carmen…what happened to you…" Arsene whispers to himself "Okay...how about you Anat?"

"To be honest, I never died. I'm just reborned like this since I'm a goddess." "What kind of goddess were you?" "War, love and fertility, I was also known as the mother goddess or the queen of heaven. I also um, married my brother…and I would kill humans who wouldn't worship him…" "Anat! That's terrible…" "I know I was…that's why I want to make up for what I've done…"

"I guess you all want to make up for your past lives." "…"

"Ye're right Cap'n! I made a lot o' mistakes! 'n nah jus' about me crewmates but also fer scuttlin' merchants fer thar booty!" "Hell yeah! Once we find out who's doing all these mental breakdowns, I sure it would make up for your past!

"I too want to make up for what I did from my past, I killed rich people for their riches and gave it to the poor but I still killed them even innocent ones…" "Like Ryuji said, what we're doing now is a great start for making amends for what you did in your past, Goemon." "Thank you, sir."

"Well it's getting late, we should head back before Ms. Kawakami yells at us…"

Hotel Hallway

Ann was walking to Akira's room because her roommate had locked her out; "I can't believe she didn't leave the card with me…well at least I can be with Akira some more even though Mishima is going to be there as well…I'm sure you're happy Carmen getting to hear Arsene." "…" "Carmen? What's wrong?"

"…Ann there's something I want to tell you…"

"Is it about Arsene committing suicide in his past?"

"N-No, it's not that, well I'm sad about that too. But, remember when I said that I don't remember dying?"

Ann nods; "Yeah…"

"W-Well I was lying...I do remember how I died…it was because of a man named Don Jose, he was one of the soldiers that I seduced just to smuggle some contraband with my smuggling band. At first, he didn't pay attention to me but then he fell in love with me because I charmed him to release me since I faked a fight with my friend and he got arrested instead. But after he was released, I pretended to be in love with him because I felt bad for him but I told him I would only be with him if he left the military. He refused to leave the military so I called him boring and that I "loved" another man who was a bullfighter, so he left with his friend back home in sadness. That's when I was with the other seductresses and we drew tarot cards, the other girls got good luck cards and I had the death card. I, of course, didn't think anything of it. So we went to the bullfighter's show and the girls told me that Don Jose was there saying that I should avoid him because of the card. So with my fearlessness, I stayed behind to talk to Don Jose ignoring their warnings. He said that he still loved me and tried to convince me to forget my past, To start a new life with him but I refused because I said that I was born free so I will die free. And to make him know I was serious; I threw his ring that he tried to give me back at him making him get angry and he stabbed me to death…I ruined a man's life because I made him believe that I loved him..."

"Carmen! That's terrible! Why would you do something like that!?"

"Because I'm a horrible person and I deserved my death! I'm just some faithless whore who deserves to burn in hell for all eternity for turning an innocent man into a criminal for my selfish reasons…"

"Carmen that may be true before but you've been reborn! This is your chance to redeem yourself and you can begin a new life!"

She starts crying, "Even if it's my past life, Arsene reminds me of that man because he was the only one to not pay attention to me when I did my seduction at first…what's he going to think when I tell him about what happened! He'll…He'll leave me!"

"Carmen…it will be okay, I'm sure Arsene has some demons as well. He knows that you're a different person from the way you used to act."

"No…I don't deserve a man like Arsene…"

"Stop that Carmen! You're a different person now. But, you must tell Arsene, okay?

"O-Okay, I'll tell him when we go to the metaverse then…"

"Don't worry so much, it will be okay."

Hotel Room Nighttime

Akira was lying on the sofa, Ryuji on the floor, Mishima was in the bathroom, and Ann on the bed. Akira was having trouble sleeping since he was near the bathroom hearing Mishima groaning, "Damn it, I can't sleep…once again..." "I can't either…" "Is it because of remembering your death?" Arsene sighs; "I'm trying not to think about it…and I'm also worried about Carmen, she would never snap at Ann." "Yeah, maybe you should talk to her when you explain your death."

On the bed, Carmen was keeping Ann awake, "Carmen, please go to bed…I'm tired…" "I'm trying to but I'm worried about telling Arsene and why do you think Arsene would kill himself…?" "Okay yeah, I'm wondering about that as well but we won't know till we leave Hawaii…" "Fine…I'll stop worrying, only if you invite Akira to sleep with you." Her eyes go wide and she starts blushing a deep red; "W-w-w-w-hat!? I-I-I'm not ready for t-t-that!" "Relax dear, I didn't mean it in a sexual way, but in a cuddling way." She calms down a little bit glad that she didn't mean sex; "O-oh, I guess I'm ready for that…it would give me a chance to give me a clue on how he would act about his parents disowning him…" "Y-you're going to tell him now!?" "No, I'm just going to give him thought about it." She roll over and grabs her phone off the night stand.

Akira's phone goes off and he sess that Ann was texting him; "Why is Ann texting me?" He opens the messaged icon and read her message making him instantly get nervous. "I wasn't expecting this."

[Can you cuddle with me?]

[A-a-are you sure…?]

[Please…]

[O-okay, give me a sec...]

Akira gets up as quietly as possible but almost trips over Ryuji but manages to remain in balance. He then makese it the bed and tries to look Ann in the eye but wasn't able to so he just stares at the floor; "Um, I-I'm here…"

Ann was having as much trouble looking at Akira. Because she was looking down and would glance at him for a sec and back down for a few seconds. She would do this repeatedly a few more times until she takes a deep breath and nervously crawls to the side of the bed then grabs his hand; "I-It's okay Akira, y-you don't have to b-be nervous e-even though I-I am…"

He slowly nods and climbs on the bed slowly. Then lays down next to her and scoots to him then hugs him around his waist while laying sideways. But he didn't know where to put his arm so he put his arm around her shoulders.

Even though she was content that way, she wanted him to be more brave; "Um...y-you can put your arm around my waist if you want to…"

"A-are you sure?" He says nervously

"Y-You don't have to be afraid to hold me Akira…I-I want you too…"

"O-okay…" He then moves his hand slowly down to her waist but her tank-top was hiked up a little making him accidentally caress her skin instead of the tank-top causing her to yelp in surprise; "I-I'm so sorry Ann! I didn't mean to!"

He then tries to pull his hand away but she holds his hand in place; "N-No, its okay...I was just surprised but it feels…nice."

"Um, alright…" They stay like this for an a while and she starts to fall asleep till she grips him tighter; "What's wrong, Ann?"

"Have you gotten a response from your parents, yet?" She says

He shakes his head; "Unfortunately no…I tried to call them but it automatically goes to their voicemails…"

She snuggles closer to him trying to keep calm knowing the truth; "Um...do you think that they're ignoring you?"

He thinks on that for a moment, "No, of course not. They're my parents and they know that I'm innocent, they're probably busy. Anyways, why would they ignore me?"

"I don't know...But how would you react, if they were really ignoring you or if they disowned you?"

He laughs thinking the whole idea as silly; "Disown? That's the last thing that they'll do. But, if they really have, I guess I would be dead inside or just give up on life, but they'll never disown me especially since they're always praising me and showing affection, my mother was even crying when I left."

"But, what about me? You still have me, right?"

He laughs again; "Of course, I have you. But, they're my parents, wouldn't you give up on life if your parents hated and disowned you?"

She starts sobbing; "I-I-I…"

Pulling away; he looks at her with worriment in his eyes from why he was crying; "Ann…why are you crying? Did something happen between you parents and you?""

"N-No...I-I'm just happy that you're parents sound like great people and I can't wait to meet them..."

He looks at her confused but smiles; "Yeah, me too, I'm sure they'll love you." But that's when they hear Mishima finally get out the bathroom making him quickly go under the covers to hide.

Mishima looked over at the empty couch and looks at Ann's bed seeing that she was up; "Hey...Takamaki? Where's Akira?"

"H-He, uh, he went to the bathroom downstairs, since he couldn't wait!"

"Oh, okay…" Mishima was too tired to question her nervousness and goes to bed

They wait till they hear him snoring and Akira comes back up; "That was a close one…"

"Y-yeah...But I-I have to use the bathroom." She quickly gets out of bed and quietly goes to the bathroom. She then quietly shuts the door and starts crying quietly; "I-I can't tell him, h-he's going to hurt himself I know it! He's parents treated with love and affection and they go and disown him! Why!? I want to know why!"

"Poor Akira! I want to know just as much! I want to burn them for hurting him!"

"I-I know how to talk to them...it's risky and Akira would probably hate me forever, I'm going to call his parents!"

"How are you going to do that?"

"When he goes to take a shower, I'll get his parents number from his phone…"

"But that's against his privacy!"

"Don't you think I don't know that!? But, I must know the truth even if he hates me for doing it…"

Outside the bathroom, Akira was on the bed thinking about what was going on with Ann; "That was weird, why would she think that my parents would disown me?"

"…"

"Arsene? Is there something wrong...?"

"..."

"Still thinking about your past?"

"No...it's something else. I have to talk to Ann and Carmen about something."

Akira laughs; "Really Arsene? You're trying to take Ann from me, I know you're a charmer but you don't need to have Ann too. Go after Anat, she wants you and Carmen's willing to share you with her."

"Surely you jest, right?"

"Of course, I am. Oh, if you're trying to discuss a Christmas present for me with them, I want a Lupin the Third video set."

"They made a show about me?"

"Not exactly, supposedly it's your grandson."

"We have to watch this now…"

Ann soon gets out of the bathroom then goes back to bed and Akira looks at her in worriment; "Is everything okay?"

She nods; "Y-Yeah..." She climbs back on and she goes back to their last position; "I love you, Akira." "I-I love you, Arsene."

"I love you too, Ann." "Um, I love you too, Carmen."

The Next Morning

Ryuji was standing over the two lovers smirking when he sees them waking up; "Morning, love birds." Kidd starts crackling; "Did me scallywags 'ave fun explorin' each other's booty?"

"Nope, but Ryuji, you were moaning out Hifumi's name." "Rather loudly actually."

"Louder than when Carmen moans Arsene's name in her sleep." "From what Ann told me, I'm rather loud." "Yeah...thank god my parents can't hear you…"

"W-What!? I-I was!?" "Uhhhhh, I reckon they we be jokin'…"

Akira laughs seeing how flustered he got; "Well that's good that you don't dream about her even I don't dream about Ann." "Wait, you don't?" "Of course not, it's creepy…"

"Maybe I shouldn't tell him that I dream about him all the time…" "Excuse me, but why is it creepy to dream about the person you're in a relationship with? That just means they're the only person you think about. Or...are you dreaming about some other harlot, Akira!?"

"What? No! I just thought dreaming about the person you love was creepy." "Yeah maybe if you aren't in courtship with them. But, other than that, it's not creepy at all."

"I didn't mean to dream about her…" "Ahoy bucko, even if ye did, 'tisn't that bad besides the way she natters t' ye, she prolly wants ye as well." "Yeah dude, just because the girl is nice to you doesn't mean she's into you." "Ask her out today then, take the chance!" "Alright fine!" He brings out his phone and was about to text Hifumi but sees that he got a text from her wanting to hang out; "For real!? She texted me first about hanging out! That's a good thing, right?"

Ann nods smiling; "Yep! That just means she really wants to hang out and this early too! That means she was thinking about you all night!" "Ah, it reminds me before you and Akira started dating. You would spend almost every night thinking about him…" She blushes looking down then looks at Akira from the corner of her eyes; "W-Well...I couldn't help it…" That makes Akira smile and he kisses her cheek.

"Geez you two, get a room…" Mishima mumbles; "Wait, you already do…"

Ryuji rolls his eyes; "I've got to go take a shower and get ready!" "Change your clothes too!" "Oh yeah!" He messily grabs his new clothes and rushes into the bathroom.

30 minutes later

Ryuji finally leaves the room and Mishima soon leaves as well

"You know, I'm happy for Ryuji but I feel bad about Mishima…" "Yeah. That boy is kind of lonely…"

Ann smiles coming up with an idea for Mishima; "Hey! I know! How about we set him up with Futaba!?" "Oh, you mean that adorable shy girl?" "Yeah! They're both awkward and they seem to like technology, so why not?"

Akira looks down thinking aloud; "You do make a fair point…I'll think about it." "It would be an interesting idea." "Anyway, I'm going to take a shower." He then gathers his clothes and walks into the bathroom.

Ann waits till the shower was on and once she hears it, she grabs his phone but sees different girls number; "Who are all these girls numbers?" "He better have an explanation for these!" "To be honest Carmen, you kinda have no right to get mad at Akira." "Oh…" She shakes her head and continues to find Akira's parents. She soon finds the contacts 'Mom' and 'Dad' and 'Home' and she quickly copies the numbers then she goes back to the home screen when she spots a folder that says "old friends". She opens it and sees pictures with Akira and a group of people but she notices that there was a girl who would always stand by him; "So these are his old friends huh? He looks so happy with them but who's this girl that's always with him, she looks foreign like me and she's beautiful…" "It looks like he still misses his old friends…" But that's when they hear the shower turn off and she immediately goes back to the phone's home menu and she quickly puts it back on the nightstand.

After a bit, Akira gets out of the bathroom; "Why are you sweating Ann?"

Ann gulps; "Oh! Um, I was just worrying if my roommate's back. Or I won't have my clothes." She quickly gets up; "Well I'm going to grab my stuff and come back to take a shower. Hopefully my roommate's there."

He nods; "Do you need some help?"

"Nah, but thanks, it's just a suitcase and a backpack with bathroom supplies." Ann leaves for about ten minutes and ccomes back with her stuff. She then puts her stuff down and grabs her new clothes but stops smirks; "There's no one here and we're alone, maybe I should tease him…" "Do it…do it…do it." Carmen whispers repeatedly. Even if it was her idea; she still blushes deeply and walks over to Akira then sits on his lap straddling his thighs. She then puts both her hands on his chin forcing him to look at her; "Last night, I noticed you were afraid to hold me," She says in a low sultry voice and then starts to stoke his cheek; "You don't have to be afraid to touch my body Akira...but, on one condition." Akira gulps and nods slowly; "Your body is mine and mine only, understood?" He nods slowly again and she kisses him on his lips; "Good..." She gets up, grabs her clothes and goes to the bathroom. Carmen starts sobbing loving what Ann had done; "That was beautiful darling, I'm so proud of you!"

Akira eyes were still wide open in shock from what Ann just did; "W-What just happened...?" "I think she just made you hers, so I'm guessing Carmen has been teaching her some things…"
