Disclaimer: I do not own Love Hina.........if I did I would continue the series........ :
A/N:Not very many reviews yet.......I´d hope to get some with this though.
Takoyaki is Octopus cakes......a common junkfood, I think.
It looks good. :D

The summer nightsky of Hinata-hot-springs lights up with stars as well as a full-lit moon this night.
This night of the weaver festival.
A hint of blue lingers everywhere as the party from Hinata-Sou works their way down the long stonesteps.
Brendi can´t help glazing at Motoko in her perfect outfit.
As he walks along he barely begins to imagine that his possible first relationship is with
such a beauty,one who seems to understand his own feelings so well.
Motokos train of thought is somewhere along the same lines.
Am I really in love? It sure feels like it. Why am I so insecure?
You´d think that with everything we´ve experienced so far we would be holding hands and kissing in the dark.´
Just realising what she had been thinking Motoko blushes furiously and tries to hide it with her fan.
How can you be thinking of kissing? You´re becoming the ordinary country girl that plays with boys in the hay.´
By thinking of the "playing" Motoko blushes even more,before she gathers her thoughts again.
All I want to do is sit with him,somewhere dark and watch the stars and the moon,sharing our beings and feelings.´
As the gang wanders down towards the town everyone of them thinks of what might come to happen during the evening.
Although not everyone keeps it to themselves.
Hanging on Motokos back is Suu telling everybody about the things she´ll be eating and the games she´ll be playing.
" I´m gonna get cottoncandy,takoyaki and of course!......chocolate covered bananas."
The last words was confirmed by a big grin and drool starting to seep from her jaws.
"Heh,Kaolla-san is so excited about the food,but what about the games and events?"
"I am not forgetting those,but I must consider the best parts first, ya know?"
Shaking a finger at Suu Keitaro takes the chance to tease her a little bit.
"Haha,Suu-chan,you should be careful,you don´t want to get fat do you?"
As soon as the words are out of Keitaros mouth Suu jumps from Motokos shoulders and lands with her foot first in Keitaros face.
This then causes Keitaro to connect , face first, with the ground with Suu sitting on his back.
The rough landing forces all the air out of Keitaros lungs and the only sound he makes is: "OMPH!"
"Hahahaha, as long as I can kick you as exercise I´ll never get fat!
The expressions and sounds you make are such great motivators."
"Argh,I guess I had that one coming."
As the other laughs at Keitaros "accident" Brendi can´t help but laugh with them.
At Hinata-Sou these kinds of things are apparently common,and now he is starting to become a part of it.
For once his life seems to be sorting out, and perhaps more good things will happen?.
After a little walking they finally reach the place of the festival.
Countless shacks of various entertainments and foods is stacked around a big square,
light from every corner of the surrounding creates a jolly atmosphere that leaves a smile on every face.
As they reach the beginning of the shacks everyone instantly disappear into the crowd,leaving Brendi at a loss.
"Errr,where the heck did they all go?"
Suddenly something grapples him from behind,legs ensnare his waist and arms are wrapped around his neck.
"Oh,they went to each their specialty."
Turning his head as much as possible Brendi sees the face of Suu, a stick of takoyaki in her mouth and two more in each hand.
"Then why are you still here?"
Showing off her white teeth in a grin Suu off-handedly replies.
"I like you!And so does Motoko,so I thought I could take care of you for abit......
At this point Brendis brain started displaying pictures of Suu and Motoko doing.....things to him.....together.....
(A/N: Suu is only one year younger than him,and he is 17, so that isn´t as weird some of you just thought it was ;) )
"....show you around and stuff."
Pulling himself together , Brendi tries to stop blushing but he ends up failing.
With a half-teasing, mock seductional voice Suu decides to push that blush.
"Hey, what´re you thinking about, eh?
What kind of "taking care of" are you thinking about?.
Something like whisperwhisper ?"
Suddenly even more intriguing pictures starts developing.
Before it gets out of hand Brendi for some reason decides that now would be a good time to go do something else.
"Hahehhe,now lets go get some bananas,ok?"
"OK!gogogo,you want some takoyaki on the way?"
"Yeah,sure,takoyaki is great!"
Glad he successfully changed the topic Brendi also disappears into the crowd, a few people staring after him
since he got a sixteen year old girl on his back feeding him takoyaki.
After a few hours of browsing with Suu on his back,Brendi starts thinking about heading home and suggests it to Kaolla.
"Ne,Suu-chan how does heading home sound?I am getting abit tired and there is always tomorrow."
Surprised at the proposal Kaolla gapes at Brendi.
"And miss the fireworks?That is the best part, and I know just where we should go to watch them."
"Fireworks? I didn´t know there would be......
Hmm,why don´t you lead me to this place then?"
Her usual smile back in place Suu starts giving Brendi directions on where to turn and such.
After a little while they are out from among the shacks and heading uphill into a forest.
A few metres in the undergrowth gets really dense.
"You want me to go through there?With you on my back?"
"Yeah,I know you will think it is worth it when we´re through."
Shaking his head in dismay Brendi mutters something about indian girls and starts the track.
The night doesn´t help Brendi and several times he almost trips into the bushes, but somehow he
manages to stand upright.....sometimes with the help of Kaolla though....
After tracking through bushes and small trees and such Brendi reaches what seem to be the top of the hill and is rewarded
with a magnificent view over the square and the ocean.
He can clearly see where the nightsky meets the ocean and how the moon and the stars light up the water surface.
The trees create a theatre of the view,making it look like he is gazing through some portal.
"Beautiful........."
"Isn´t it?This is where me and Motoko come to watch the fireworks every year."
Me and Motoko!?´
A slight rustling in the bushes behind him, makes Brendi turn around.
Standing there is Motoko,looking somewhat confused,not pleasantly confused.
"Why are you here Urashima-san?This place is a special one for Suu and me, I am not sure if you should be here."
"Aww,come on Motoko,you don´t have to act for me. I know about you and Brendi,remember?"
Looking away Motoko can´t help but show her uncertain self.....
"I am not sure if there is any Brendi and me Su-chan....."
Suddenly getting serious Suu gets off Brendis back and walks straight up to Motoko.
"What are you talking about?Remember the roof?Remember your tears?Our tears!?"
At this point Brendi decides that this is a personal thing between the two girls and steps a few metres away to give them a little privacy,
but he can´t help but hear a few more sentences as he backs away.
Now wholly on the defensive Motoko actually raise her voice in defence.
"Of course I do!But I will not let a man come between the two of us,no man!"
"He will not come between us Motoko.....how can you think that?"
As he glimpses at the two girls a few times during the next minutes it seems as if Suu manages to convince Motoko about something,
and at one point Motokos face turns into a mask of surprise.
Brendis feelings soon start to desolve into sadness and a sense of loss
I wonder how this will turn out.....will I loose this thing too?´
As he stands there,thinking, he suddenly realises that the fight has ended.
Turning around he can see both girls coming towards him,smiling.
Then,somewhere behind him he hears the scream of a rocket.
Raising a finger at the sky Kaolla points out.
"Look!The fireworks have started!"
As he looks up unto the sky and the many different colours exploding in patterns Brendi seats himself on the grass.
And a few seconds later Suu snuggles in under his right arm and leans on him, on the other side comes Motoko leaning
her head on his shoulder.
As close as they are Brendi can make out the two girls different scents.
Motoko smells like the coming of winter and mountain air,with a subtle undertone of warm promises.
Suu smells like the fullness of a weath harvest and summer days spent on fields.
The feeling of those two bodies and their heat, Brendi decides, is the most wonderful feeling he ever has enjoyed.
The sheer closeness to the girls,the lit sky and the dark surroundings is something Brendi never could´ve imagined
by his own.
He could stay like this forever.
