Stay Stay Stay by Taylor Swift
...
"No."
"What?" Tsukushi asked innocently.
"No." Tsukasa repeated.
"Oh come on! We haven't even been here ten minutes. This could be fun!"
Tsukasa crossed his arms and scanned around him. "No."
Tsukushi clenched her fist. "You're asking for it. Look, I won the right to choose where we go for spring break right?"
"That was when I thought we were staying at a spa in this area! Not this tiny, minisqueal-"
"Miniscule," she corrected.
"-bug invested, peasant fish village," he finished.
"The travel agency told me there's a natural spring you can hike too. Plus we're here at the beach!"
Not to mention super cheap tickets to get here, she gloated inwardly.
"At least give it a chance," Tsukushi told him.
"No."
She sighed. "Ok, I'll make this really easy for you." She looked around before stepping close to him with a very red face. "Either you give it a chance or...no love making the entire spring break."
Tsukushi watched as he weighed his options.
"...Damn it! Fine! Where's the shack we're renting out?" he joked.
"Right in front of you," Tsukushi said.
Tsukasa looked straight ahead to see a what was literally a beach shack. The thing looked like it would crumble into dust with a little gust of wind.
"No."
"Argh!" Tsukushi stomped away carrying her luggage towards the the small beach shack.
It was going to be a long three days.
...
With each moment they were there Tsukushi got more irritated. Tsukasa had gone through the whole place giving dirty looks to all the furniture and fixtures. He didn't word his complaints but the looks and tiny scoffing sounds were driving Tsukushi batty.
We've only ben here an hour...she thought.
"How about we go to the beach?" she offered.
"Anything to get out of here," he mumbled rummaging through his suitcase to find his swimsuit.
Tsukushi rolled her eyes and went to change in the bathroom.
When they were ready they walked out the back door to the beach and noticed that the temperature had dropped down into the seventies.
"What the hell?" Tsukasa questioned. "It was sunny and warm when we got here. Now it's cold and stormy!"
Tsukushi took note of the storm clouds above.
"It'll warm up again. The clouds are just passing over," she assured him.
But the gust of ice cold wind that rushed by them was not supporting her theory. Neither was the bone chilling sea water.
"Only you would pick the one place where winter happens during spring," Tsukasa commented as they walked pack to the beach shack.
"Well your not making this any better!" Tsukushi yelled.
"The only way to make this situation better would be to leave this god forsaken place!"
Tsukushi pulled open the shack's back door forcefully while she yelled. "Fine! Then leave!" She tugged out her cellphone and chucked it at him. He gracefully caught it before it hit his face. "Here! You can even use my cell phone to call yourself a taxi!"
Tsukasa didn't say a word but stomped out and slammed the door behind him. The whole building shook unstably.
...
Tsukushi sat in the middle of the bed listening to the sound of the storm that was obviously here to stay. She looked out a window and saw small raindrops hit the clear glass.
Tsukasa hadn't come back yet and she was starting to get worried. Although the idiot was old enough to take care of himself...But it was evening now and almost pitch black outside.
Maybe this whole thing was her fault. She had to have known that Tsukasa would hate it here. Part of being in a relationship was knowing what the other liked and didn't like and making certain accommodations for that.
She sighed in defeat. Are relationships always this hard? Or is it just us? she couldn't help but wonder.
The door opened making her jump and she watched as Tsukasa came inside soaking wet without saying a word. Tsukushi didn't move or speak as Tsukasa went to the bathroom and grabbed a towel to dry off.
After a few moments Tsukasa spoke. "I'll leave as soon as the storm ends", he spoke without looking at her. He grabbed some clothes and went back into the bathroom.
She didn't now how to make things better so she laid beneath the covers of the bed. She heard the creak of floor as Tsukasa walked towards the bed and then the squeaking noise of the springs as he laid down on the mattress, his back to her.
After moments of silence she finally spoke up.
"Please stay," she whispered.
She was answered with silence and was sure he was asleep.
Knowing he wasn't awake she vented her thoughts.
"Maybe part of this is my fault for making you come here. But you don't help the situation. Sometimes you make me so angry and you find that funny. But I don't want you to leave. So...stay...stay," she repeated the word a few times hoping it would sink into his sleeping subconscious. "I love you Tsukasa."
A pair of arm wrapped around her.
"Well since you said please..." he murmured in her ear.
"You're awake?!" she hissed and flipped over to look at him. "I can't believe you!"
He smirked. "Ya know it's not only funny when you're mad but cute too."
She swatted at his chest. "Let me go!"
"Nope. You definitely owe me for throwing a cellphone at my head and making me go out into the cold soaking rain."
"That's funny because you left on your own," Tsukushi snapped back.
"The least you could do is keep me warm" he continued.
She sighed again. "...Ok, but we're not doing anything sexual."
"Damn," he muttered and kissed her forehead. "I love you Tsukushi."
She snuggled into his chest to ide her smile. "Shut up and go to sleep."
