A/N: So yeah I couldn't get myself in gear, so I did what I always do when I can't get myself to write. I listened to Vocaloid! I found an amazing song that became the basis for my super cliché chapter! Yep, Vocaloid + Beach = This Chapter! The song for the chapter is "Have You All to Myself! Summer Girl" by Tensoh Airly (Kaito, Gakupo, Kiyoteru, and Len). Enjoy this clichéd composition I call a chapter!


Chapter 8 To The Beach

I was headed to the beach with Len, Miku, and the others to a private beach. I planned on staying on home and getting ready for Arisu and Takara's party the next day, but Len suckered me into it.

"C'mon, Rei. Smile. We're going to the beach!" Miku yelled.

"What's so big about the beach?" I asked.

"Haven't you ever been?" Len asked.

"Yeah, I usually go to the beach for my birthday year with my family, Arisu, Takara, and Chou."

"That reminds me, Rei. When is your birthday?" Len asked.

"You don't know your own girlfriend's birthday?" Kaito asked, turning in his seat to face us.

"You don't know it either. It's August 20th," I told Len.

"Rei! That's next Saturday! How old will you be?" Miku screamed as she turned in her seat beside Kaito.

"I'll be sixteen," I said calmly.

Rin came over the back of my seat. "Really? We have to do something special for you! You only turn sixteen once!"

"Like what?" Kaito and Miku asked.

"I know what I'm doing," Len declared.

"And what's that?" I asked.

"I'm taking you out on a date!" he exclaimed.

"What?" I asked, confused as heck.

"Yeah, you and me on a date for your sweet sixteen!" He smiled.

"And what if I say 'no'?" I smirked.

He gasped. "You wouldn't!" he said in a joking tone.

"You're right. I wouldn't. I would really like that, Len."

"Really?" He asked.

"Yeah! I would love to go on a date with you."

"Alright."

A group "Aww" broke us from our conversation. I had forgotten Miku, Rin, Kaito, Preston, Luka, August, Gakupo, Megan, and Ginny were around us, and that the first three mentioned loved listening to our conversations.

"So, Len, got any ideas where you're going to take her?" Kaito asked.

"I'll think about that later. Today, I just want to spend the day with my girl at the beach," he said, pulling me close.

I wasn't paying attention. I was looking out the window at the beach. It was the same beach I spend my birthday at every year. I saw my parent's timeshare in the distance. Usually, I would be there be now. Ari, Chou, and Tak would come after Ari and Tak's birthdays. I wondered if my parents were there.

"We're here!" August screamed. The others cheered.

"Rei, have you been here before?" Preston asked.

"Yeah, actually we drove by my family's timeshare."

"Your family has a timeshare here?" Len asked.

"Yeah, we'd be there by now."

"We should see if your parents are here. I still need to meet them. Everyone else did," Len said.

I pulled out my red matrix and dialed my mom's number.

"Reika?" My mom asked when she picked up.

"Hi mom!"

"Aren't you working?"

"No. All of us are on a break for the weekend. We're at the beach. Are you guys at the timeshare?"

"Yeah. Why?"

"I may visit you guys later, and I'll be bringing someone with me."

"Who?"

"Someone you need to meet."

"Is it Len? Rin told us you two were a thing. We'd love to meet him."

"Well, speak of the devil; he's trying to get me off the bus, so I'm going to get off here. I'll see you later, mom."

"Okay, bye, honey.

"Bye."

We all got off the bus and saw the beach with it's yellowish brown sand and bright blue water. I inhaled the familiar smell of salt water. I felt almost at home.

"C'mon, Rei! We're going to go get our swimsuits on," Megan, Rin, and Ginny yelled.

"I put mine on under my clothes."

"Yeah, I did too," Luka and Miku said almost simultaneously.

"We'll go with you," Meiko and Gumi said.

"Thank you," Rin said.

Len, Gakupo, Kaito, and Akaito were running to the water, taking off their shirts and screaming. Luka, Miku, and I laughed as they yelled about the water being cold.

"Let's show them up," Luka smirked.

"Yeah!" Miku yelled.

"This is going to be good," I laughed.

We all took off our outfits to reveal the swimsuits we had underneath. Luka had a pink monokini, Miku had a turquoise bikini with white polka dots, and I had an orange bikini with yellow linking and yellow board shorts.

The boys were standing where the water came up to their ankles. We ran right past them to where the water was at our waists.

"What's wrong, boys? Is it too cold?" Luka teased.

"Shut up, Luka!" Gakupo yelled.

"Can't you guys take it?" I answered.

"I thought I told you to shut up!" Gakupo yelled.

"You told Luka to shut up. Las time I checked, I'm Reika."

"Len, go get you girlfriend."

"What's he going to do?" Miku teased.

"Okay, Gakupo. I'm on it," Len said.

He was mumbling about the cold as he walked over.

"Aww, Len, is it too cold for you?" Miku picked.

"Yeah, Len, I think you should go sit on the sand where it's warm," I added.

He started running. Within seconds, he had picked me up and fallen on his back into the water, taking me with him. We were both underwater. His hands were on my waist. He wouldn't surface, and I was running out of breath. I pointed up. He got that signal, and we surfaced.

"Are you trying to kill me, Len?"

"No, I would never."

"I swear. I was about to need CPR."

"That would've been fine with me. I would've administered it to you."

"Of course, you would've," I sighed.

"By the way, is the water cold, Len?"

"Yes, Im going to the shallower water."

"It's a shame we're handling it better that you," Luka teased. She said it loud enough so Gakupo and Kaito could hear us.

"Oh, Luka." Gakupo and Akaito had snuck up on her and threw in the water.

Kaito did it to Miku while she paying attention to Luka, and Len did the same to me. I had Len's hand and drug him under with me. We surfaced immediately.

"Len, you're going to pay for that," I teased.

"What are you going to do?"

I started chasing him. Luka and Miku were chasing Gakupo and Kaito. Len was getting closer and closer to shore. He stopped, turned, caught me, and spun around.

"You suck," I laughed.

"I know."

Meanwhile, Kaito and Gakupo had turned the tables on Miku and Luka. They were now chasing the girls, and the distance between them was closing. Kaito soon had Miku bridal style, and Luka was running closer to shore. She took a sharp turn, and Gakupo fell face first into the shallow water. Rin had pulled out a camera during all of this. She had probably taken pictures of me in Len's arms. I was positive of that.

My feet were off the ground. Len had picked me up and set me down where the water was at his waist. I was in his lap. Kaito was carrying Miku to her towel, and Luka and Gakupo were sitting with Meiko. Gumi, Megan, Ginny, Rin, Preston, and August were looking for small fish that August called "fishy babies". I was laughing at August.

"Come here, fishy babies! I love you!" She yelled as she jumped face first into the water. "Aww, where are my fishy babies?" she pouted. Len joined in my laughter.

I put my arms around Len and leaned my head on his shoulder. He kissed my forehead and leaned his head on mine. He sighed, and I shut my eyes. We just listened to the ocean and the others around us. Miku was the first person I heard.

"Aww, look at Len and Rei. That is too cute."

"Yeah, it is cute. Rin, do you have you camera?" Meiko asked.

"Yeah. What do you want to take a picture of? Oh, that's too cute." I heard the camera click.

"Rin, did you get it?" Miku asked.

"Yes, I got it. I'm definitely going to show Mr. Crypton and Mr. Yamaha."

Len laughed. We were listening to the same thing.

"They are so cute together!" Miku cooed.

"Yeah. You don't see a lot of couples so right for each other," Luka said.

"Yeah, Len and Rei are one of a kind," Gakupo agreed. I felt a smile grow on my face.

"Should we invite them to join out volleyball game?" Meiko asked.

"Yes, you should!" Len yelled.

"How long have you been listening?" Kaito asked, embarrassed.

Everyone was suddenly quiet. Len and I were laughing. We had heard the whole thing, and they had no clue of it. We had ninja ears.

"Since we sat down." I yelled.

"Well, do you want to play?" Rin asked.

"Yeah!" Len and I yelled! We stood up and ran over.

"It's girls versus boys," Miku informed.

"Oh, I like this game already," Len said, smirking at me.

"Let's make this interesting," Preston declared.

"We're listening," Gumi said.

"If we win, you have to do as we for the rest of day as long as it's within reason. One girl assigned to one boy sound fair?" Preston asked.

"It does to me," Rin said.

"So, what if you win?" Kaito asked.

"A role reversal of what Preston said," Luka decided.

"Okay. Let's play!" Len declared.

The boys won. No matter how much I dove or Luka and Rin hit the ball, we lost.

"Okay, it's time to assign the girls. Makoto, what girl do you want?" Preston smiled victoriously.

"I'll go with Gumi," he answered.

"Akaito?" Preston asked.

"Meiko," He said smiling.

"Kaito?"

"Miku," he said, looking at her sweetly.

"Gakupo?" Preston inquired.

"Well, my songwriting friend, I choose Luka."

"Len, we know you're going to choose Reika," Preston laughed.

"Yeah." Len smirked at me.

"So," Preston started, maniacally, "I have Rin." He laughed devilishly. Rin hid behind me.

"Save me, Rei."

"I'm sorry, Rin. I can't. You said it was fair."

Preston grabbed Rin's hand and dragged her to his towel. Len tapped my shoulder to get my attention.

"Go get your clothes and shoes on. I'm taking you the boardwalk then we're stopping by your family's timeshare."

"Really?"

"Yeah. I'm warning you though. There will be fans who will be staring."

"Okay. I'm guessing this is a volleyball victory command, and I have no choice."

"You really don't.

I went over to my towel and put on my brown flip flops and yellow sundress. My hair went up in a bun, and within five minutes, Len and I were on the boardwalk. Len was right. People kept staring, but he kept me distracted with his flirting. Then we heard music that sounded as if we were in Jamaica. The band playing was at a gazebo in a large park.

"Would you like to dance?" Len asked.

"Of course, I would."

Len would usually smile when we danced together, but he had a worried expression on his face.

"What's wrong, Len?"

"Paparazzi. They're here."

"Just forget about it."

"They'll give you one heck of a time, Rei."

"I don't care."

"Rei, I have an interview with Chihiro Takudome in a few days. I want to publicly announce that I'm dating you on the show. Is that alright with you?"

"Yeah, If that's what you want. It's alright with me. As long as I'm with you, I won't mind."

He dragged me down the boardwalk to the Ferris wheel. Within seconds, he had our tickets and we were sitting in one of the seats.

"I'm sorry about that, Rei. I didn't want paparazzi bothering for what I'm about to do."

"And what's that?" I asked. I could already guess though.

"Wait until we get to the top."

"The giant wheel stopped when we reached the top. He pulled me in for what I guessed. He kissed me for the fourth time. I realized that the only time I tried to fight out of his grasp when he kissed me was the first time he did. I've always melted around Len for some reason. I'm glad I didn't though. Who knows what today would be like if I did?

"Thanks, Rei."

"For what?"

"For being amazing."

"Now's your chance to hold me close." I said softly.

"I'm scared of heights, and we're on a Ferris wheel."

He pulled me in close. "How's that?" he asked, smiling.

"Perfect," I said, grabbing his other hand.

"I love you, Rei."

"I love you too, Len."

We were almost at the bottom. Len still wanted to meet my parents. I called my mom as we got off the ride.

"Hey, Mom."

"Hey, Rei. Everything is ready for if you come over."

"You're psychic. We were just heading over. See you in like five minutes."

"Okay."

"Bye, mom."

"Bye, dear."

Len smiled at me. "Rei, how did you know I was about to ask that?"

"ESP is a family trait," I joked.

"So you and…" he started

"…my mom have it," I finished.

He laughed. "You really are psychic."

"I wish."

A few minutes later, we were standing in front of my family's timeshare. I was getting nervous. I haven't seen my parents since my first day at Crypton Manor. Since then, Len had kissed me four times, I had become the prize of game, wrote all four of my singles, and told Len I love him. A lot happened in almost a week. Len grabbed my hand and smiled.

"Don't be nervous, Rei. They're your family."

"Yeah." I knocked on the door. My dad answered.

"Pumpkin!" he yelled.

"Daddy!" I hugged him.

Len smiled. My dad looked at him.

"Hello, sir. I'm Len Kagamine. I…um…work with your daughter."

"Rin told them," I said flatly.

"Really?" he asked, surprised.

"Yeah," I answered.

"Well, geez, she just took the surprise out of that."

"Young man," my dad started. "It's nice to meet you. I'm Arata Fujihara. Come in!" My dad surprised Len and me with his friendly behavior.

"Daddy, I missed it here."

"Well, dear, you're used to coming here for two weeks every year."

"So true."

"Reika! Len!" My mom yelled. She sounded so happy to see us.

"Mom!" I yelled, running to hug her.

"Come join in the hug, Len." My mom said sweetly. He walked slowly over.

"Len, I'm not going to bite."

"Mom, don't force him into something he doesn't want to do. If he feels as awkward as I do, I don't blame him." Len smiled.

"Oh, that's right. I'm so sorry, Len. Rin told us so much about you, so it feels like we've known you for a long time," My mom explained. She stuck her hand out. Len took a hold of it and shook hands with her.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, ma'am," he said politely.

"I can say the same for you, Len. I'm Midori Fujihara," My mom replied. "Now, Rei, why would Len feel awkward?"

"Think about it, Mom."

"Oh, you mean how he hated and wanted nothing to do with you the first day, then he fell for you the next day, we never met him, and now, you two are dating," my mom guessed.

Len looked worried.

"Don't worry. We don't hate you for it," My dad explained, putting his hand on Len's shoulder and smiling. "Actually, Rin told us Rei is very happy with you. We've seen pictures she's emailed us, and my daughter looks happier than she's ever been. Thank you, Len." Len's expression lightened up.

"Well, sir, to the truth. I actually wasn't happy at all before I met your daughter. She was so nice to me, and she is best thing to happen to me," he said, looking at me with his sincere smile.

I never realized how happy Len was. I knew he was happy, but he said I was the best thing to happen to him. I melted again. I grabbed his hand and smiled at him.

"You two are so cute together," My mom said. My face turned red, but Len looked at me.

"Should I tell them about what I asked you?" He whispered.

"Yeah, I think you should. I think they need to know."

"Mr. and Mrs. Fujihara."

"Yes, Len?"

"I plan on publicly announcing that I'm dating your daughter. I don't want to have to keep it secret."

"Len, sweetie, if that's what you want, go ahead," My mom said.

"Does Rei agree with it?" My dad asked.

"I said that as long as I get to be with him, I don't mind."

"Well, it's fine with me then."

My mom dragged me to kitchen, leaving Len with dad. I had a feeling Dad was going to give Len a little talk.

"Rei, help me set the table."

"Yes, ma'am."

"Are you really happy with him, Rei?"

"Yes, I am."

"He hasn't tried anything has he?"

"No, he hasn't. He's not that kind of guy."

"How are you going to deal with the paparazzi?"

"The same way I dealt with my bullies for five years, ignore them."

"Rei, that can't be enough. I don't think you should be with him. I think you should just be friends." I stopped in my place.

"Mom, I love Len. Being with him is probably the best thing to happen to me! He makes me so happy. Forget about all the celebrity issues for a minute. Just think about if he wasn't a Vocaloid. Would you have let me be with him then?"

"Yes, I would've. He really is a gentleman."

"Then, why try to keep me away from him. He's still the same guy. He's just pretty well known."

My mom pointed behind me. I turned around. Len was right behind me. He was shocked.

"How much of that did you hear?" I asked.

"I heard everything from after 'Rei, that can't be enough.'," he answered. I looked at my mom, who was turning red in the face.

"Oh," I murmured.

He held my face, making look right into his stunning cerulean eyes. He smiled and pulled me in close. This time he hugged me. He one arm around me, and his other hand was on the back of head. My arms were wrapped around him. He leaned his head on mine.

"Rei, we're you embarrassed by that?"

"Maybe." My face turned red, and my heartbeat sped up.

"Don't be. You just made my evening."

"Len, are you scared to kiss me in front of my parents?" I whispered. I didn't want my parents to hear that.

"Maybe." I heard his heart speed up. Him being taller than me has its perks.

"I don't blame you," I said. He laughed.

"Reika, Len, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said that. It wasn't in my place," My mom said.

Len and I pulled apart. "Yeah, it really wasn't," I said coldly.

"I just worried about you, honey. The last boyfriend you had got another girl pregnant while he was dating you, then we found out he had been dating a week longer than you. You two had been dating only a week when you found out." I turned my head away, looking down.

"Rei, is that the truth?" Len asked.

"Yeah."

"You didn't tell me the whole story."

"I told you what would help you when you found out about Emily."

"Wait, who's Emily?" My dad asked.

"A girl who played me. She's getting married soon. She recently became part of the teen mom list," Len explained.

My parents looked at each other.

"Maybe you two are better for each other than we thought," my mom said. "So, Rei, is he going to the party tomorrow?"

"What party?" Len asked.

"Two of my friends from before Vocaloid life are having their sweet sixteen party, and you're not going."

"I am now."

"No, you're not."

"Why not?"

"My friends are obsessed with you!"

"What did they say when you told them you were going to write songs for Rin and me?"

"I just told them I was writing for Vocaloid."

"Well, don't you think you should tell them the truth? Don't they at least deserve that?"

"Yeah. They do. I guess you just suckered me into taking you tomorrow."

"Yeah. I did."

I sighed. Len was now going to meet my friends. I didn't want to tell them I was dating him either, but Len was right. I had to be honest with them. Chou and Arisu are obsessed with Len, and Takara thinks he's a shota. I wasn't ready for it, but Arisu, Chou, and Takara were about to meet my boyfriend.


A/N: The fishy babies part happened in real life. So that's a true story! Anyway, what did you guys think. Yes, it probably sucks, but I couldn't motivate myself to write. I have recently gotten into Hetalia. I love it. I see a fanfic in the future! lol Anyway, writing Songwriter chapters is getting hard, but I'll get it sooner or later. Ideas would be nice since I'm getting L-A-Z-Y!
