Summer Vacation
By Misaki Sakura
@Day Four@
/Ken's POV/
I don't know why I let them talk me into this, I really don't. Maybe 'cause yesterday I couldn't think properly that my supposedly called friends took advantage from it. Plus that accident. Aya didn't say anything about the night before but I know that he knew. Why doesn't he want to talk to me about it? Why do I even bother? I can't understand myself lately.
So like I've said before, I let them talk me into this ... this ... mess. I don't know why, I don't know how. I just realize that they have successfully fooled me. Now here I am somewhere in the woods alone with my roommate, Aya.
"So, Ken, ... where are we going?"
I look at the redhead who walks beside me right now, staring at me with those beautiful deep amethyst eyes of his. Suddenly I find out that I can't say anything, stunned by his looks.
"Ken?"
"Yeah, um ..." Actually I don't know where we are going. Omi and Youji tell me to ask Aya out together with me but I figure out that I don't even know where to go. Do I have to tell Aya about this? I don't think so.
"You ... you'll see..."
"Hn..."
He sounds doubtful to my answer. I can't blame him though. Heck, I am confused too!! Then I hear something that suspiciously sound like snickers and 'shh's and I am no doubt that those are my other co-workers' voice. Aya frown a little and looks back.
"Did you hear something, Ken?"
"N...No! Must be your imagination."
"...Yeah, must be."
I sigh in relief. I know that Youji and Omi have been following us all the way here. I want them to 'cause if Aya suddenly disapprove with anything I say and decides to kill me, I know that I have backups. Even though I don't think they could rescue me from Aya's wrath.
"Ken, where do you want to take me? Do you know?"
He sounds that he's irritated right now. I gulp. What do I have to say? Youji, Omi, help me!!! But I know that I can't basically depend on their help since, you know, sometimes they are too occupied by other things to notice that their friend, me, is in danger. Maybe they'll realize it when they see my body pieces scattered all over them. What do they do behind those bushes anyway?
"Ken..." he growls.
"Relax, Aya. I know where we're going, okay. There's a waterfall behind this forest. You'll see. Be patient."
I can't believe I said that smoothly!! Being my usual self, I would do a lot of stammering, stuttering, and looking at nothing in particular and when I said a lot, I really mean a lot.
Silence reply from him. I'm getting used to it. No replies, death glares, speaking in Aya-nese, whatever connected to him, even though they're annoying but sweet at the same time.
"Ken..."
"What?" I ask, still wander in my dreamland with Aya. Suddenly I hear a loud splash and there I am, sitting at the bottom of the river. I tripped.
"That's what I was going to tell you." He says I in a flat tone. I glare at him. He smirks.
"I don't find anything funny about this, Aya."
"Well, too bad 'cause I do." He says with a smile plastered on his face. It's a smile, not a smirk. I blush, but manage to stay calm.
"Who are you?"
"What?!"
"I'm asking who you are!! You're not Aya!!"
"Hah, very funny." He snorts.
"Well, you shouldn't have laughed at me."
"Well, you shouldn't have tripped in the first place. And I didn't laugh at you."
"You did."
"No, I didn't."
"Yes, you did."
"No, I di... Whatever!!" he starts to walk away.
"Hey, don't try to run away!!"
"I am not running away! We won't go anywhere until you change or clothes or else you're going to catch a cold."
Now I blush extremely furious at his statement. "Ano..."
"I don't want it to affect Weiß."
I'm stunned.
*****
/Aya's POV/
Why did I tell him that? This has nothing to do with Weiß. I'm worried. But on the second thought, I can't tell him that. He may be offended by it.
"Aaa. Gomen." He says in a very tiny voice. I wonder if he really catches a cold.
"Are you okay, Ken?" I try to sound as monotone as usual but I can't avoid the concerned tone in my voice. I stretch out my hand to rub his forehead. Before my hand can reach him, he looks away.
"I'm fine. Let's go, Aya."
He walks past me to lead the way back to the cabin. I follow him. Along the way, I feel the air is very odd. Ken doesn't open his mouth to say anything which makes it much odder 'cause he never stops to talk even when no one pays attention to what he said.
I hear that again. The muffling sounds behind the bushes. I know someone or something has been tailing us since we departed. Seeing Ken's reaction, I have some suspicion that they, yes they, are Omi and Youji. I don't think they know that I know that they are here.
Ken won't know if I stop following him since he walks really fast. I decide to do so. I stop just about 100 meters from the cabin and walk hastily towards the bushes. I hear someone yelps.
"Hello, Omi, Youji." I say as I drag them from behind the bushes.
"Err, hello, Aya-kun.." Omi says sheepishly, looking at Youji then back at me again.
"Starts explaining, now!!" I cross my hands in front of my chest.
They're still looking at each other, trying to make some good excuses to safe them but they'll not work. I know Omi when he lies and I never ever believe Youji. I settle for my best glare on them.
"So? No one wants to say anything?"
"Ano ... Aya-kun ..."
"Yes?"
"We're just curious ... 'cause you ..."
"'Cause you went with Kenken without saying anything to us." Youji helps Omi to answer.
"Then what does it have to do with you?!"
"We're just curious!! We're not doing anything wrong!"
"Curiosity can lead you to danger, Omi. And you, Youji. You should've stopped him."
"I couldn't."
"Why?"
"I can't resist Omi, can I?"
"Make a better excuse next time, Kudou, 'cause that doesn't work. At all."
"I'm serious!!" he stomps his feet to the ground. What a mature. I shake my head in disbelief. I thought he's the most mature one in the three of them. How looks can deceive people.
"What are you thinking, staring at me like that?!"
"Whatever." I turn my eyes to Omi who gulps, "I want you to tell me the truth. And don't lie 'cause I will know if you're lying and you'll be grounded for the rest of your life, Omi. Now, spill it!"
He gulps once more and sighs defeatedly. "Okay, Aya-kun, I'll tell you but please don't be mad at me." He says in his best pleading tone. Ken and Youji will fall for this but I won't.
"We ... we want Ken-kun to be happy... that's all."
What the heck?! "What does it have to do with anything?!"
"'Cause Kenken will only be happy beside you, Aya. He loves you."
I believe now my mouth is forming an 'o'. I must be hearing things. They've got to be joking. Why would Ken love me?! This is just their way to get through this. I won't believe them!
"But you have to!! We're not joking, Aya-kun, and we know that you feel the same about him, so..."
"So you tried to make Ken went together with me into the woods and hoped that we got lost so that something would occur between us?!!!"
"How'd you know?!" he asks in disbelief and awe.
"Just guessing. But, if that's what you were scheming, you're both in a deep mess, misters."
They gulp in unison. Now that's funny, but being as icy as ever, I say nothing. Instead, I turn my heels and walk to the cabin with a smug face. But, I have other thing to be taken care of first and that's Ken. Does he really in love with me or this is just Omi's stratagem to save his life? I have to find out.

Author's Note : Thank's for the reviews, minna-san. You're
the ones that make me keep going. Anyway, the next chapter
will be Omi x Youji. I like the pairings.
