Maki?- Nico said in confusion, Maki awkwardly looked at her and nervously smiled – oh you're the kid that ran away!- Umi said as soon as he saw the red haired boy. Maki turned his gazed to him and awkwardly smile. Nico looked at both of them confused but decided to not say anything. The atmosphere was tense, everyone just awkwardly stared at each other.
- so looks like everyone already knows each other- Nozomi said smiling breaking the awful silence. - it does, doesn't it ...- Nico added half-heartedly laughing .- if that's the case then... welcome to our humble house please make yourself at home- Umi said smiling and everyone nodded. -but just in case you don't know us- Umi said as Nozomi got close to him, - I'm Sonoda Umi, and she's my younger sister Nozomi.- the blue haired said as he glanced over to Nozomi - We'll be your hosts, if you need anything please do let us know- they both said in unison, everyone else smiled and nodded.
After awhile, they all gather in the living room to decide who will sleep with whom. Nozomi jokingly suggested for Nico and Umi to sleep together something which cause and uproar from the red haired and blond haired – they're not married yet!- the blond haired said standing up flaring through his nose – don't you think is improper for them to do something like that!? They're not married yet!- the red haired added trying to not sound as angered as the blond
– but they will eventually do it, the sooner the better- Nozomi responded making both Umi and Nico blush – I..I think it's too early for us...- Nico shyly commented – I ...I also think that...- Umi said with a big blush in his cheeks. - in that case Maki-kun and Rin-kun can sleep in the first room downstairs , Nico-chi and I can sleep in another one and Eli and Umi can sleep in the remaining room. -what about Hanayo-chan?- Rin asked confused – oh I can't spend the night, so I'll be going back after dinner- Hanayo replied making Rin sad
– how are you going home?- Eli asked this time – I'll take her- Eren replied smiling, - I have to work tomorrow so I can't stay- Rin frowned his eyebrow and Eren took notice of this – you don't have to worry about me, I'm already engaged- Eren said looking in Rin's direction showing him his ring , Rin blushed and bowed apologetic.
-well now that everything's been clear, let's go to our rooms and then head for the beach!- Nozomi said excitedly, everyone nodded and headed towards their respective rooms.
-hey Maki-kun- Rin said as he changed into his swim shorts -yes?- Maki nonchalantly replied – Umi-san is really nice...- Maki frowned his eyebrow – your point?- he asked annoyed – I think it'll be hard to get Nico-chan back if Umi-san is this nice, I mean Nico-chan is big romanticist and Umi-san is like knight that's come to rescue his princess...- Maki stared and the oranged haired boy for a bit – whose side are you on?!- the red haired replied annoyed – eh?! no...! it's just...- the oranged haired stuttered in fear – I get , I get it. Calm down- the red haired said sighing – Umi-san is nice and all but Nico-chan loves me, that wouldn't change in a week, right?- Maki said smiling -you're right, nya!- Rin replied excitedly. -then tonight's plan is still happening?- Rin asked – of course it is- Maki replied immediately. The red haired changed into his swimwear and both of them headed for a hidden place of the beach, preparing the event they had planned for tonight.
At the same time in another room, Eli was undressing himself getting ready to change into his swimwear, the blue haired in the opposite direction of him was doing the same thing, both of them unconsciously would glanced at each other scanning each other from head to toe he has a nice body, but mine's better... both of them thought as they continued to change . The air was filled with silence , the whole time they were there they both didn't say anything. The blue haired finished changing first and went out of the room first, after a few minutes the blond was done as well and made his way to the beach.
Nozomi, Hanayo and Nico were the first ones to arrive at the beach – I really thought the guys would already be here – Hanayo said making the other two nod – yeah usually girls take longer- Nico added. - Well we don't have to wait for them to have fun! C'mon girls!- Nozomi said grinning pulling the two younger girls with her into the ocean, the girls played with no care in the world and didn't notice the presence of the guys watching them – looks like they're having fun, should we join them?- Eren asked, before Eli or Umi could respond he jumped into the blue ocean in front of him and started chasing the girls with a water gun in his hands. Umi chuckled and smiled. Eli paid no attention to the blue haired and just kept looking over to Nico. Actually both of them just kept looking to where Nico was, - aren't you guys going in? nya- Rin asked as he got close to them, they didn't reply and just kept looking over to Nico, - you guys are boring, nya!- the oranged haired said irritated diving into the ocean, Maki sighed and stood next to the blond haired. Now there were three boys looking over where Nico was. -Looks like Nico-chi is popular te-he~- Nozomi playfully said as she noticed the three guys staring at the raven haired. Nico blushed at Nozomi's comment but kept quiet. Hours went by and the five of them decided it was time to get out and have dinner.
-Hanayo-chan you have a really nice body nya!- the oranged haired said making Hanayo blush- th..thank you...Rin-san- the latter said still blushing, - Hanayo-chan you don't have to be formal with me, and it's true!- Rin said smiling widely making the sandy haired smile – okay Rin-...kun- Hanayo said making the oranged haired blush. -listen here Rin, you're good guy and all but if you dare to play with my cousin I'll crush your nuts!- Nico said with an itimidating look making Rin gulp – I...I understand!- the latter responded nervously making the rest laugh – Nozomi-chan also has a nice body, nya!- the orange haired said smiling – thank you, Rin-kun- the purpled haired said patting the oranged haired's head, Nico waited a bit but nothing came out of the oranged haired – well?- she asked annoyed glaring at Rin – ah Nico-chan...Nico-chan...-the oranged haired sighed, he was loss for words. Nico flared her nose and walked away – Nico-chan also has a nice body – a tall blond said as he place a towel around her tiny body – Eli...- was all Nico said trying to hide her blush. Eli smiled winking his left eye. Maki saw the scene and felt blood rushing through his vains, as if Umi wasn't competition enough, you too Eli?! The blue haired saw the scene as well and felt uncomfortable, - well time for dinner- the blue haired said walking over to them breaking the moment Eli and Nico were sharing, Eli glared at him but Umi didn't care. Nozomi just laughed at the childish scene happening before her eyes. Rin looked over to Maki waiting for a sign and Maki nodded. Eren saw it but didn't say anything. They all headed back to the house and went to their rooms to shower and get ready for dinner.
Nico and Hanayo were the ones who prepared dinner, Nozomi offered to help but after a few minutes of being in the kitchen she had already burnt the vegetables, Nico told her that Hanayo and her could handle it, and that she should just get the table ready. Nozomi apologetically nodded and took some plates with her to set the table, Umi saw his sister struggling and immediately went over to help her. - Umi-san is ,really, a gentleman- Hanayo commented as she watched the two siblings set the table – yeah- Nico responded. The two of them remained quiet and kept cooking – okay dinner's ready!- Nico yelled from the kitchen , everyone went straight to the dinning table and waited for the food to be served, Hanayo was carrying the rice cooker and Rin took notice of this he quickly got up and offered to carry it for her, Hanayo blushed but thanked him. Rin smiled and said it was nothing. Maki saw this and thought maybe he should follow Rin's example, as he was busy thinking Nico came in, carrying a big pot of meat here's my chance! the red haired thought and before he could get up and help, the blue haired took the pot away from Nico's hands and helped her. -please allow me- the blue haired said smiling making Nico blush. The red haired looked away irritated, he saw Eli who was next to him , his face expression wasn't any better than his. This cause Maki to chuckle and just shrugged it off.
I won't lose to him he thought determinated as he regain his composure again. - everything looks delicious!- Eren said happily as he stared at the dishes in front of him. - yeah! Let's dig in, itadakimasu!- Nozomi replied as she grabbed her chopsticks. The eight of them happily ate as they talked about how they had met, Rin had ask how Umi was a child and Nozomi told them the cry baby Umi used to be, something nobody could believe. -really! Nico was the one who take care of him!- Nozomi said making Umi flustered, making the others laugh – well that's enough chatting for the night- Umi said irritated – Eren needs to go back and you shouldn't drive out so late- Umi said as he got up , Eren nodded and glanced over to Hanayo – you ready?- he asked as he got up as well – yes- she replied smiling. After a few minutes everyone gather to send them off – be careful, text me when you get home!- Nico said as she gave Hanayo a big hug, Hanayo nodded and smiled – it was nice to see you again Hanayo-chan!- Rin said smiling trying to hide his gloomy expression – ah! And it was nice to meet you Eren-san!- he added as he looked over to the tall purpled haired boy– you two , it was nice to meet you all, well now we'll be off- Eren said as he got in the car. Hanayo followed him, and they drove off -take care!- Umi yelled as he waved goodbye.
- well, I'll head back . The dishes still need to be washed- Nico said as she made her way to the door – wait- Nozomi said grabbing Nico's hand, stopping her from moving any further. – Nico-chi cooked so someone else should clean the dishes – Nozomi added and the rest nodded – I'll do it- the blond offered smiling to the small raven haired girl. – no need I'll do them- the blue haired intervened , both of them glared at each other and kept arguing about who was going to wash the dishes- ok, how about you two do it?- Nozomi suggested making them both raise an eyebrow. - sounds perfect!- Nico added as she quickly fled away, Nozomi followed and soon Rin and Maki did as well.
It was just Umi and Eli standing outside both looking at each other – well...- the blond sighed – you're Nico's best friend and I'm her fiancé. Yet, I know you love her. Still, I don't want to keep arguing like this. If Nico loves you I will back off, but if she doesn't I will also give it a shot, so let the best conquer her heart!- The blue haired said extending his hand , the blond looked at him smirked – and that guy would be me- the blond replied as he shook the blue haired's hand . - we'll see- the blue haired responded. Both of them went back inside and cleaned the kitchen.
Meanwhile somewhere in the beach, - woah this place looks surreal!- Rin said as he finished placing flower petals around the sand. - hehe- Maki laughed satisfied. The both of them managed to escape the house without no one taking notice of them, or so that's what they thought. Nozomi noticed the two friends acting strange and decided to follow them. - I think it's time to get Nico-chan- Rin said looking at Maki, the latter nodded and Rin left place running quickly to look for Nico. Maki examined the place making sure everything looked perfect. He had place some rocks in a hear shape on top of the sand he had written 'Nico-chan please forgive me, go out with me' in the sand, there was also a trail a flower petals that led from a certain point of the beach towards that place, Maki was sure Nico would like it and if everything went according to the plan this time he would be able to confess .
-woah the place looks amazing!- a girl voice could be heard and Maki quickly turned around excitedly expecting to see the raven haired girl standing in the place woah that was fast! Maki's smile rapidly fade away as he saw the one standing there was not Nico, but Nozomi
– what are you doing here?- Maki asked annoyed – how rude Maki-kun! ...You and Rin were acting pretty suspicious so I followed you two- the purpled haired admitted as she kept admiring the place. - if you're here to stop this then- -no- Nozomi said cutting Maki off – you like Nico-chi right?- the purpled haired asked making the red haired blush – in fact I noticed, but Nico-chi seems to the popular type, even Eli-chi likes her. You've got some competition there kid- Maki got even more annoyed – if you're here to discourage me- - no- she said again interrupting him – like I said, I am not- she finished .- then why are you here?- Maki asked confused – like I said I was curious to what you and Rin were doing, I know Nico-chi is engaged to my brother and I would love for her to be part of my family but if she loves someone else I will support her. Nico-chi is someone whom I truly treasure. - Nozomi said smiling . Maki didn't reply and stared at her – but of course I will forever prefer for her to be with my brother- she said teasing the red haired making him annoyed again. - you already saw what Rin and I were doing so please leave now- Maki said pushing the purple haired away, - Maki-kun so mean!- Nozomi said as she resisted – just leave already!-
Nico was standing outside the house watchind the moonlight peacefully, actually it was too peaceful, she was wondering where Rin and Maki were, right at that moment her question was answered -Rin-kun?- Nico said as she saw the oranged haired boy running towards her direction, -Rin-kun what are you- -I'm sorry Nico-chan but I need you for a moment!- the oranged haired said cutting her off as he grabbed her wrist and pulled her wtih him – wait Rin!- Nico yelled but Rin didn't stop. This is like graduation day, don't tell me Maki is... Rin kept running and running until they reached the point where the petal trail started, -here!- Rin said smiling poiting at the petal trail, Nico looked confused Rin just told her to followed it and Nico sighed and did as told.
-just leave already!- Maki said still pushing the purpled haired girl, Maki's continious pushing made Nozomi trip on a rock and fall, much to his luck she grabbed onto him and fell on top of her .- ouch!- the red haired exclaimed in pain as he touched his head , he realized after a few minutes he was on top of the purpled haired and how close both of them were, Nozomi was blushing and now Maki was as well. They didn't say anything and just kept staring at each other. - Nozomi...- the raven haired softly said, Maki froze for moment, he saw the small raven haired girl's expression turn dark and he quickly got up
– ah Nico-chan! This...this isn't what it looks like! Let me-
- Nozomi , Umi's looking for you- Nico said cutting the red haired off and running away. -ah! This...again...!- the red haired said angered pulling his hair- this is your fault! All your fault!- he said glaring at the purpled haired girl. -now now, calm down Maki-kun- the purpled haired said as she got up . - calm down? How?! Ahg!- the red haired said still angered – we just have to explain to Nico-chi this is a misunderstanding – Maki glanced at her and puffed his cheeks – how about this then, I'll help you win Nico-chan's heart even if I'm betraying my brother- Maki raised and eyebrow – no thank you, you've already done enough!- Maki said stomping out of the place. Nozomi sighed and chuckled – Nico-chi sure is popular- she said once again before leaving the place.
