A/N: er yea... so once I learn how to use tenses appropriately, things will get better (mimics Sousuke in his abuse of the English language). Hehe... anyway, I edited that so hopefully it will be easier to understand, I noticed the mistake after I posted and was too lazy to fix it the first time.
Sergeant Sousuke Sagara sat hidden under one really big, really ugly straw hat. Somehow this outfit seemed to be unnecessarily colorful for one who was incognito. His sunglasses took up three-fourths of his face while is Hawaiian t-shirt portrayed an image of your stereotypical tourist.
According to his surveillance equipment Ms. Chidori and her group would be arriving promptly in ten minuets. She had tried to evade him yet again. He could never understand why Kaname tried so hard to escape his protection. It was only intended for her own safety. Sousuke replaced his usual cut up newspaper with a more recent cut up magazine. Recent was considered as being purchased within two years of the current date.
The girls set up not too far away from Sousuke's camp. He watched through his cut up magazine as Kaname attempted to set up the umbrella while the other girls straitened out the blanket. Kaname removed her beach cover-up and began chatting excitedly with Kyoko. Neither of them had been to the beach yet this summer. Sousuke couldn't stop staring. She was too beautiful. For the past year he had been trying to convince himself that Kaname was simply his mission. No matter how many times he told himself, he just couldn't shake these feelings for her.
He really had never felt attached to anything in his entire life. Ms. Chidori was different. He felt as though she really was his responsibility. If Mithril stopped sending him instructions to protect her tomorrow, he would continue without orders. If anything were to happen to her.. I would probably kill myself. His thoughts shocked him. When exactly did she become more then a mission? It was so confusing. He had strong feelings for her, yes, that could be confirmed. He was attracted to her; the growing bulge in his swimsuit confirmed that. The only problem was that he didn't know for certain how she felt about him.
He knew that she found him annoying. She told him so everyday. Kurtz tried to explain how anger could actually be used to hide affection, but this sounded quite strange and illogical. If I confront her and she doesn't share the same intentions as I do, our mutual alliance might be lost. Thus.. it would be more advisable to continue observation.
What exactly are my intentions? He didn't even know the answer to this question. What did women want?
Kaname had just gone for a swim. She raced Mizuki up the hill and was victorious. Sitting on the blanket she dug through her bag and pulled out a towel. She dried off and Sousuke stared in amazement. Her hair shimmered in the sun. Sousuke had always wondered how long it took her to grow her hair that long. She was so perfect in comparison to him. He knew his face spoke of his profession. He really couldn't remember a time before the scarringKaname had flawless skin; a bit too much of it was showing in his opinion. Heh and she always wonders why I'm so stiff around her. Howe else am I supposed to control myself? God, I really am a pervert.
Sousuke's cell phone started ringing. He picked up. Dam it's always the wrong number.
He turned to look again. Kaname was gone – and so was his hat.
"Dammit.." he had been spotted.
"YOU!" Kaname roared. "You freakin followed me AGAIN?"
Sousuke looked sheepish. " er... Ms. Chidori.. I was only ensuring your safety, you did leave without alerting Mithril to your whereabouts and I am responsible for you." This explanation seemed satisfactory enough.
Kaname was turning red. He was in trouble and he knew it. She's always angry at me.
"Dammit Sousuke! All I wanted was one relaxing weekend. No mess-ups, NO EXPOSIONS, no one stalking me no matter where I go. Is that too much to ask!"
"Um.. well, Ms. Chidori, if you had informed out sources of your whereabouts, closer surveillance would not be necessary. We would have been able to secure the are from a distance and you never would have known that we were here." Sousuke felt his face turning red, there seemed to be alot of people staring at them. " Do you think we could continue this conversation elsewhere?"
"Sousuke is that you?" Kyoko and Mizuki had come to see what the commotion was about.
"Greetings."
"Wow and I thought someone had drowned, though I'm not sure why I'm surprised, it seems Kaname and you are always the cause of some disturbance." Mizuki explained dryly. So did they finally admit their feelings? By the looks of Kaname.. I'd say no.
"What exactly did you mean by that!"
"I'm just stating a fact, it's not my fault that it's true."
"Fine whatever, lets change the subject."
"I know! I know!" Kyoko was too excited about being on vacation. "I'm hungry lets just go get a bite to eat."
"Yea sure." Kaname wasn't too excited about her friends' exuberant energy. She had just been stalked and no one seemed to find that strange anymore. Though this might just be the opportunity I need.
"Your coming too, right Sousuke?" Kyoko asked.
"Affirmative, I too require nutritional refueling."
"Uh... yea ... great." Kaname stared. There's no doubt about it- I am officially crazy.
A/N: ahh.. That wasn't so difficult. Took me forever and a half to type. I'm planning on 4 chapters, unless I go over. Remember: Comments Love. I'll wait for at least 5 before posting.
