Rikkaidai Vacation - Chapter Five

Room 564 – Sanada & Yukimura's Room

Apparently, Yukimura had brought with him a laptop. Like most people, Yukimura uses it to pass the time. But this time, he was using it for an important matter—dinner.

"Hmm," he thought out loud, "I've looked over the restaurants in this area." He then paused to scroll down the page of the screen. "What do you think of this sushi restaurant?" he asked Sanada as he showed him the webpage of the said restaurant.

"Sushi Restaurant MIYA," Sanada read.

Yukimura smiled. "I saw good reviews about it," he said, turning the laptop back so that it was facing him. "What do you think?"

Sanada nodded. "I guess it's okay."

"Okay, then!" Yukimura exclaimed as he closed his laptop. He looked his watch and noticed that quite some time had already passed. "We better go now. The restaurant closes at nine, and it's almost seven."

Room 565 – Niou & Yagyuu's Room

Yagyuu shook Niou's shoulder. "Niou-kun, please wake up. It's almost seven," he told the boy ever so politely, "We're supposed to meet everyone at the lobby." Niou groaned.

Niou tossed and turned, but didn't wake up. He was relatively a deep sleeper, actually. And all Yagyuu could do was sigh about it. The gentleman pushed his glasses up to the bridge of his nose and looked at Niou once again.

"Niou-kun, please wake up," he tried for a second time.

Niou's figure twitched.

Yagyuu stood up and headed for the door. He knew all too well that the only thing that would wake the trickster up from his deep slumber was a slap from Sanada. But the vice-captain was over at another room, and Yagyuu didn't think it was wise to waste precious time calling him just to wake Niou up.

As he turned the doorknob, he heard a yawn.

"You're not planning on leaving me all alone, are you, Yagyuu?" said Niou as he scratched his eyes. He then turned to smirk at his partner.

Room 566 – Yanagi & Jackal's Room

"I have the keys," Yanagi called from the door, "Let's go, Jackal."

"Ah, wait," Jackal said as he quickly stuffed something in his bag. He zipped it up and carried it over his shoulder, releasing a sigh of relief.

"That looked like it was something valuable," Yanagi assumed.

Jackal chuckled. "It was money," he said. "If I don't hide it properly, Marui will find it." The half-Brazilian boy then let out a heavy sigh. "He always uses my money to buy his snacks," he added.

The two then walked out, closing the door behind them. Yanagi turned the knob again to make sure that it was secure. He had left some important data inside, and he didn't want some random stranger coming in and getting them. The thought of that happening just seemed hilarious, though. But you can never be too sure.

"Don't worry about your money," the data master then said, "Seiichi said he'd pay for the food.

I just hope that he didn't steal from Atobe again."

Room 567 – Akaya & Marui's Room

In the end, it was Marui who got the bed. He sighed happily, clutching onto a pillow. Akaya had struggled so much to take the bed away from him (as if Akaya could carry it, though), and Marui had fought back hard. He won. And so, he was happy.

A few moments later, the tensai gave his watch a glance. "It's almost seven," he told Akaya (who was currently on the floor unconscious). "Better get going." He then jumped off the bed and headed for the door, leaving Akaya alone in the room.

Lobby

"Is everyone here?" Yukimura asked, doing his usual job as captain. Although this was vacation, he still had to lead the team. After all, it was his idea that everyone come. And he didn't want to get blamed if one of them suddenly turned missing.

He did a head count and noticed that their kouhai was nowhere to be found. "Hnn? Where's Akaya?" he asked. He then gave Marui a glare. "Marui, he is your roommate, right? Where is he?"

Marui bit his lip.

"Please call him."

Yukimura smiled his "follow-what-I-say-or-I'll-kick-you-out-of-the-regulars" smile. And as soon as Yukimura did so, Marui quickly ran back to their room.

"AKAYA! WAKE UP!" he shouted as he busted into the room. He walked over to where Akaya was lying (in this case, the floor) and gave the second year a slight kick.

"What's happening?" Akaya asked, waking up. "IS THE HOTEL ON FIRE?" he asked randomly, thinking that something bad was currently happening.

"I don't know what you're talking about, but just wake up!"

Akaya stood up, feeling annoyed. Marui grabbed the boy's wrist and ran back to the lobby as fast as he could.

Yukimura's smile was just that scary.

"That was fast," Jackal muttered.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

"Let's go," said Yukimura, sounding quite cheerful.

"Where are we eating?" Akaya asked, still sleepy. He had planned on skipping dinner to continue sleeping in their room. And at that time, he would re-claim the bed that just so happens to belong to Marui now. But he couldn't escape now, seeing that Jackal had wrapped the leash around him pretty tight.

"Sushi Restaurant MIYA," their ever-smiling captain answered. "I've contacted the bus driver to pick us up."

And so, they all boarded the bus and headed for the restaurant.

As soon as they got inside, Akaya's eyes widened. Again. "It's huge!" he said, repeating the same thing he had said when they first entered the hotel. This vacation sure was extravagant.

Everyone gave Yukimura a "where-did-you-get-the-money-for-this" glance. And as if reading their minds, he answered, "I got enough money from Atobe to spend for our vacation." He then smiled.

Sanada mumbled a few words including: "Seiichi," "doing," and "wrong".

After they had all settled down, the waiter handed Yukimura a menu and he started browsing through it. On the other hand, everyone else continued to look around, still amazed over the place.

Akaya looked over to a corner. There was a table that was particularly different from all the other tables. It was elegant, and seemed to shine when you looked at it. It was probably a V.I.P. table or something of the sort.

"Doesn't that look like," Akaya started, squinting at the people who were sitting at the said table.

Everyone turned their heads to look.

"Isn't that—?"

Author's Note: I won't ask for a number reviews anymore. :) Oh, and I'll be updating every other day.
