Strawberry Panic-Episode 5:

Road Trip Part Three

That night Shizuma and Nagisa set out for a night on the town. Shizuma had a nice quiet place in mind but her girlfriend had other things in mind. Every time they would pass by a crowded club, Nagisa would point and suggest they'd go there but Shizuma would shake her head.

["Aw come on ShiShi-chan, I wanna have some fun!"]

Shizuma sighed, ["Okay, but let's go somewhere that I know you'd like."]

Nagisa smiled, [Really?]

Shizuma nodded as she stopped at a red light and looked at her phone.

"Hm, the crowd should be there now."

Nagisa looked at Shizuma and blinked. Where could we be going?

Shizuma looked at Nagisa and smirked as she put her foot on the gas, speeding off at the same time the light turned green.

I know the right place, Shizuma thought with smile on her face.

It wasn't long before they made it to their destination. It was a crowded club on the south part of downtown. Even though it had a crowd, it wasn't as large as the ones Shizuma saw at the clubs they passed.

Nagisa looked up to see if there was a club sign but she didn't find one. She lifted an eyebrow and looked at Shizuma, who simply smiled.

["Come on."]

Nagisa shrugged and got out of the car and followed Shizuma into the club entrance. The inside of the club was a total contradiction to the outside, the speakers blared loud music and people were dancing everywhere. Nagisa's eyes widened as she looked up and Shizuma again.

Shizuma winked, ["so, you wanted to have fun right?"]

Nagisa smiled and grabbed Shizuma's hand, leading her to the dance floor. Her brown eyes glowed slightly as the lights reflected on them.

Once their feet touched the dance floor, they began to dance to the fast paced beat. Shizuma, watched as Nagisa's body swayed, full of energy and grace. Her eye computed every movement her body made, entranced.

Nagisa too, was watching. She noticed how Shizuma's movements matched the beat of the song perfectly, also the fact that the shape of her body was truly intoxicating. She had never noticed before, but the sliver-haired woman was wearing a top that showed off her stomach.

If this woman was a weapon, she would cause mass destruction.

Their eyes met for a second and the two of them began to add more passion in their movements, inching closer to each other. It was then when the song ended and a slower song started.

Of its own accord Shizuma's hand found Nagisa's waist and she pulled the redhead close to her.

["Nagisa, are you having a good time?"]

Nagisa rested her head on Shizuma's shoulder as danced together. The redhead watched as the other couples passed by, a mix of hetero and homosexual pairs. She then looked up at Shizuma and smiled at her.

["I have a good time anywhere…with you."]

Shizuma's eyes sparkled with a silent happiness and then she closed them and pulled Nagisa closer, as they spent the rest of that night in the comfort of one another.

After staying an extra day in San Francisco the two of them got up early the next morning and started their six hour drive to Long Beach. Lucky for Shizuma, the traffic was light. Even though a stop at this city wasn't planned, everything was still going according to plan. She would make it to San Diego right on time.

The ride wasn't as long as she thought it would be and seeing as they had go up at seven in the morning. They were making great time so far.

Nagisa looked up at Shizuma as they merged onto another freeway. ["So ShiShi-chan, what time will we make it to Long Beach?"]

["It should be around one,"] Shizuma said as she glanced at Nagisa.

Nagisa turned on the radio and flipped through the channels. When she finally found something that she liked she turned up the volume.

["Oh so you like that song to huh,"] Shizuma asked.

Nagisa nodded, ["yeah, it's really nice."]

As the song played on the red head heard singing, she turned to Shizuma and found out that it was her voice. Shizuma herself was unaware that she was singing. It was something that she did unconsciously.

"I am in love with you. You set me free, I can't do thing called life without you here with me..."

Nagisa's eyes widened as she listened to the sweet sound of Shizuma's voice. Her voice was so powerful that it was able to overcome the sound of the car's engine, but also so soft and beautiful that it was pleasant to the ears.

Shizuma noticed that Nagisa had her attention on her and she stopped, slightly embarrassed.

Nagisa smiled at her, ["wow ShiShi-chan, you never told me that you could sing."]

Shizuma laughed, ["it's because I can't."]

["Well that sounded great to me!"]

Shizuma shrugged, ["feh, it's just something I do out of habit. So I'm not really that good."]

Nagisa shook her head, ["no, you're amazing!"]

["Heh, thank you Nagisa-chan."]

They finally made it to Long Beach right on time. The streets of the area were crowded with people and parked cars. It was the first day of the annual Water Sports festival and it was more crowded than Shizuma had assumed. She just had a feeling that this was going to be a blast.

This year the festival had an even bigger turn out than last year's which, according to Tanya; "was freakin' huge!"

Nagisa was excited also, she couldn't wait to join in on the water action, but she also wanted to meet Tanya, she seemed interesting. The red head made sure that she was dress in the proper attired to get drenched; it was a nice orange bikini top with pink lining that matched with the orange shorts she wore. She completed her attire with orange flip flops.

Shizuma, who chose to wear her hair down, wore a simple red and black bikini top and black Bermuda shorts. Instead of sandals she wore black sneakers. As she got out of the car she stretched and then reached in the back seat. She emerged holding two large water guns; one orange and green, the other blue and gray.

["Let's go fill these all the way up, Tanya warned me about sudden water-"]

Suddenly a water balloon collided with the back of Shizuma's head, causing water to drench her hair and clothes.

"Heya Shi!"

The shocked Shizuma turned around to see a brunette waving with a blonde standing beside her. The silver-haired ex-Etoile smiled menacingly and pointed one of the water guns at the woman.

"Hey, Tani…I see you found us."

Nagisa turned to Tanya and took in her appearance. She was a exceptionally tall woman with long dark brown hair and chestnut skin. She was dressed in a simple black tank top and blue jean shorts. Nagisa then looked at the woman beside her who was laughing at Shizuma. The woman had ash blond hair and piercing blue eyes, her skin was pale and spotted with freckles.

Shizuma sighed, "Well Nagisa, this is my pain-I mean…friend Tanya."

Tanya walked up to Nagisa as the redhead got out of the car. The two of them shook hands.

"Nice to meat you Tanya," Nagisa said with a large smile.

Tanya scratched the back of her head, "the same." She then looked at the blonde next to her.

"This is Amber, my girlfriend."

Amber smiled timidly and extended her hand, "Nice to meet you Nagisa."

Nagisa took her hand, shaking it and nodding.

Shizuma smiled as she pulled the trigger on the water gun and sprayed everyone. "So, now that we all acquainted and soaked, let's get this party started eh?"

Nagisa, Tanya and Amber all pumped their fists in the air.

"All right!"

Hmmm….this was shorter than the last chapter but I didn't wanted it to be super long. Also I thought that this was the best way to end the chapter^^

I hope you enjoyed it!
