Candy: Actually, I think the last chapter was the sweetest. What do you think? You bet I liked that. That's the most romantic part of the story I've ever wrote.

Chapter eleven: Relax? Can't.
"Kyande!! Wake up! We're here!" Megumi waked Kyande up.
"So what if we're here?"
".. You don't get it, do you?"
"Oh. Riiiight. My butt hurts."
"Mitsui. How long have we been sitting here?" Megumi asked Mitsui who was sitting at the back.
"I don't know."
"Right. You kept on thinking about Kyande? Why, she's over here!"
"MEGUMI!!!" Mitsui and Kyande said.
"What?"
"You guys, we're supposed to be outside now." The class president said.
"We are? I used to hate landings." Kyande said.
"Well, now that you know, get out."
"Err-sorry."
Then they collected their valuables. When they went out, they saw the sight. It was really wonderful there.
"Wow!" Megumi said and dropped her bag. Kyande tried hard to pick it up, carrying her big bag stroller and her back pack.
"Megumi… please don't go too excited. It hurts me."
"Oh. I can't help it! You're so lucky that you and your rich family have been here."
"Megumi. I wanna rest now."
"You're telling me you want to rest when all you did was sleep?"
"So not!"
"Right. I forgot you breathe too."
"Whatever! You kept on looking at your mirror anyway!"
"Sheesh. Just stop that. We're being left." Mitsui said.
They walked and followed the other students. Actually, they only had two airplanes for Shohoku. Some of them didn't come. Kyande stopped and looked around. Megumi stopped too and called her attention.
"Oi! Kyande! Guess what! We're being left behind!"
But she didn't hear what Megumi said. She was still looking around as if she's desperately looking for something. Mitsui snapped his fingers in front of her and, fortunately, they caught her attention.
"Yo. Sorry." Kyande told Mitsui, shaking her hands.
"What's the matter? Are you hungry?"
"N-No."
"I think you really are tired. Come on. Let's go." Mitsui said and smiled at her. She can't feel any bliss like what she felt yesterday. But she smiled without even knowing she smiled. She walked with them. The bus they rented was there. They were one of the last batch to come in, so they joined Ryonan. Kyande felt as if her head is heavy. Maybe it's because she's a little bit sleepy. She accidentally dropped her head into her seatmate's shoulder. And when she looked up, it was Sendoh. She didn't waste a time and said sorry to him.
"What's with you? That's okay." He said. If you like to sleep on my shoulder, I suggest you do it now and I won't let you go.
"Ah… right. Something's wrong. Sendoh…"
"Um?"
"If…"
"HEY SENDOH!!!!!!!!" Megumi excitingly screamed out the happiness she felt in her heart.
"H-Hey. Do I know you? You look really familiar."
"Megumi… Remember?"
"Oh.. hey." Megumi gave him a smile. Then Sendoh replied her with a gorgeous smile. What's this? I'm with Sendoh. Every time I'm with him, I feel great. I feel as though I can't breathe. But I can breathe. Maybe it's because I'm too nervous leaving the one I love behind. Hey. Can that really happen?
"KYANDE!" Megumi yelled at her friend.
"WHAT?! Don't yell!"
"How can I not yell? Sendoh's been calling you for like, A MINUTE!"
"I'm sorry."
"Are you okay, Kyande?" Sendoh asked her.
Then, the bus suddenly stopped. They already reached their destination. It seemed so fast for Kyande. But it wasn't. Sendoh leaned close to Kyande who seemed to be turning red. Mitsui pushed Sendoh really soft away from her and said "Would you mind helping Kyande with her bags? I'm kinda busy holding SOMEONE'S bags here." Mitsui said and looked at Megumi who pretended to be looking at the sights.
"Okay. If it's for the one I…" Sendoh stopped and thought about what he's saying.
Everybody looked at Sendoh. Kyande knew she was in their minds. So she started a conversation.
"Ma. Let's go! I think the beach's really cool! Ne, minna! Let's go watch the sun come down together, okay?" They all smiled and thought about the sight that they're about to see. Kyande and Megumi were really excited. When they went to the hotel at the beach that their school has paid for, it's a good thing they caught the last two left. Or else they'll have to find another hotel.
"KYAAAAAAAANNNNDEEEEEEEE!" Megumi screamed really loud while her hands waving in the air like she's really excited.
"What now?"
"It's 2:00 pm!"
"Um… to tell you the truth, I know that. You don't have to tell me." She told her while they all began walking.
"HEEEEERE!" Megumi showed her a piece of cloth.
"MEGUMI! That's a… a… bra! How dare you show that in front of Sendoh and Mitsui!"
Mitsui laughed really hard that he cried so hard. Megumi looked at Kyande who was in dot eyes. Sendoh raised an eyebrow with his beautiful smile.
"W-What?"
"HAHAHAHAHA! KYANDE! HAVE YOU REALLY LIVED YOUR… YOUR LIFE WITH…A…. A…. A…. ONE-PIECE!!!!!!! HAHAHA!" Mitsui said, barely breathing and barely even talked.
"W-Why…?" Megumi joined Mitsui and laughed. Sendoh can't laugh even though he tried. Kyande looked down and asked herself if there's something that she said. Sendoh came to Kyande and hugged her. Kyande didn't hesitate to look up at him. Mitsui stopped and looked at them.
"Hey Sendoh. Don't you think you're over caring for her?" Mitsui said with his eyes seriously challenging him.
"At least I care for her instead of laughing at her, don't you think so, Mitsui?"
"Darn you! Are you challenging me?!" Mitsui said and stood up and pulled Kyande closer to him. But he can't get her to his side since Sendoh's holding Kyande's hands and pulling her.
"If you want to settle a fight then I have no choice but to defeat you." Sendoh said as he pulled her more close to him.
"Ouch… hey. Stop." Kyande said.
"Why don't you fight me now? You good-for-nothing-trying-hard rookie?!" Mitsui said and pulled her too.
"HEEY! YOU'RE HURTING MY BESTFRIEND!" Megumi said trying to pull her too.
"Umm… guys… GUYS! STOP!" Kyande said with her eyes closed.
"Woops. Sorry." Megumi said.
"Why don't you two go to your room now and Megumi and I will sleep!!!!"
"NOOO! Kyande! It's already 2:30! What do we do? I know! Let's hurry up and change!"
"I don't want to wear that. Besides, we've just arrived here. Why don't we eat?"
"Eat? EAT? EAT?! You want to eat?! Tell you what, NO! Let's go now. Mitsui, Sendoh, could you guys please carry the other bags for us?" Megumi said.
When they arrived in their room, Megumi widened her eyes and smiled really big. Kyande felt happy for her friend. I've never seen her be happy, happy. Kyande thought. But her head was being heavy again. Oh no. Not again. I want to spend some more time with Megumi and my other friends. Megumi went to Kyande and said "Hey! Let's go change now!"
"Hey. You three go first. I think I have to… umm… brush my hair for a while."
"Oh, I'll help you do that."
"No, Megumi. I have a… different kind of brushing my hair. I'll be after you within 15 min."
"Are you sure you're gonna go?"
"Of course I am! I paid for this. I promise I'll go down."
"Okay, then. Mitsui, do you want to go down now? You too, Sendoh?"
"Sorry. But I'll wait for Kyande." Mitsui said.
"I'll wait for Kyande too." Sendoh said.
"No. Please go with Megumi. Sometimes, someone needs to be alone and think of some things, right?" Kyande said.
"If that's what you want… Then I'll go." Sendoh said and went out of the door worrying for Kyande.
"How about you Mitsui? Aren't you going down now?"
"No. I'll stay with you."
"Look, a boy can't look at a girl who fixes her self. Now go down."
"B-but…"
"Pleeeaaase!"
"Okay. But be there within 15 min, okay?"
"Okay."
"Promise?"
"Promise. Bye, Mitsui."
Then Mitsui went out of the room. Kyande immediately closed her room and rested her body on her comfy bed. She looked at the clocked. And she closed her eyes. And then she looked at the clock again and widened her eyes with panic.
"What?! So fast! I only have 3 min. before they come up here!!!!!!!! Got to hurry!"
Then she stood up and looked for the swimsuit she brought with her. She also brought a very big shirt. She was so panicked that she didn't even bother to look at her way because she's fixing her hair. When she looked to her way, she saw Sendoh and she bumped into Sendoh.
"Ah! Sorry, Sendoh!" Then she went away on top of Sendoh and ran away. She looked back again and raised an eyebrow. "S-SENDOH! Oh! Sorry!" The she went to him again and helped him get up.
"I see you're in a hurry. I think fifteen minutes brushing is okay."
"I… ah… had to massage my feet."
"Oh… I see. So, let's go down now. Hey. I thought you're going to change to swimsuit?"
"Sendoh, if it's time to swim, then that's when I'm going to putt his shirt off. I borrowed this from Kaede. Even this shirt's big for him."
They went out of the hotel and found Megumi and Mitsui. Megumi excitingly pulled Kyande to the cottage that their class rented. They all talked about Sendoh and Mitsui since Sendoh is the only Ryonan there. It's already 6:05 when Kyande looked at the time.
"Megumi, it's time." She whispered.
"Oh. Right." She smiled and stood up. "Could you please excuse us? Thanks." Megumi said in front of the class then she pulled Mitsui and Sendoh away. They found a really good spot. None of them spoke because they're all too busy to watch the sun come down. When it was already 8:00 pm, Kyande excused her self from Megumi and told her she's gonna go walk for a while.
I really like this vacation. This is the first time I've done this. I think this is really fun. And this is really relaxing. When she reached the part where there's nobody there, she sat down and looked at the moon. It's so beautiful. I wonder if Kaede's watching this too. I miss Kaede already. I can't believe he finally met the love of his life, basketball. I used to like basketball. I don't know why I ended to play it. And… before she could think about her next word, she heard a voice.
"Can I sit down?" It was Mitsui.
"Oh. Sure. I knew it. You spied on me."
"I did not. I just followed you. That's all."
"Micchy…"
"Yeah?"

Candy: Hahaha! Stay close for the next chapter! I just want people to be thrilled. What do you think Kyande's gonna ask Mitsui? I WON'T TELL YOU! *yihee! Kilig sila!*
