Ok, so I am SO SO SO SO very sorry. I know it's been MONTHS since I've updated last, but junior year is wayyyyyy harder than I thought. I thought people were exaggerating when they said it's the hardest year, but they weren't. I've actually been taking naps, which is something I've NEVER done before unless I was sick. So yeah, don't expect constant updates, but I'm getting a bit more used to the hecticness of it all, and I'm feeling a bit more inspired for this story. I had lost that for a while, but now it's back and I'm hoping to write again. I've even started some original stuff so if you like my writing you should go check it out on . I'm XxKyoshiReinhardxX :D
After a few minutes of just sitting in silence I lifted my head off of Momiji's shoulder and took a deep breath, "So we're going to the water park."
"Alright, sounds fun." He smiled at me, "Who else are we taking?"
"Uhm… I don't feel like anyone else being there cause then I'll have to explain why I'm all sad. Plus, it's been forever since just the two of us have done something together." I smiled.
"Ok, that sounds great." He nodded, "And you're right. It has been awhile since we've done something fun that was just the two of us. This will be like a date!" He grinned.
I blushed, "Y-yeah, like a date." 'OhmyJesus! A date! I can't believe he's going to call it a date! This is like… one of the best days EVER!' I screamed in my head.
"So you should probably go get changed." He pointed out.
"Right… I'll be right back." I grabbed my bathing suit and board shorts and headed to the bathroom. I took my pants of carefully so I didn't mess up my bandaging and got the rest of my bathing suit on. The suit was black with dotted white lines in a diamond patter and the top was held together by white sting. The shorts were just a plain white with the maker's logo on the top right side. I tied my hair up in pig tails, put on some sunscreen, and went back to Momiji's room where he was pulling his shirt down over his head. I caught a glimpse of his stomach and I wasn't disappointed.
Last time I saw him shirtless he didn't have a chubby tummy, but it was nothing to brag about, but now he's got a pretty visible six pack, "Looks like someone's been working out." I smirked.
"Yeah, well we went to the pool a lot so I figured I should be pretty fit."
"Oh, so you did it to impress all those other girls? I bet they must have been all over you." I glared.
"I didn't do it for them… And yeah, they were, but I didn't flirt back or anything!" He defended.
"Yeah, still… Oh well, now you've got me going with you so there's no way in hell I'm letting a single girl get too close!" I laughed and got a shirt on over my top.
"Good, I hate having to be rude to them." He walked over wrapped his arms around my waist, but to my surprise, there was no poof and no cute little bunny sitting in front of me.
"Wh-why aren't you changing?" I gasped.
"I don't know… My curse was lifted, but so far it's only me…"
"I-I can't believe this! How long have you known?"
"I just found out this morning. I felt a little emptier and I don't know… it was just gone… I'm… I'm really glad though. Cause now I can hug you." His grip tightened and I felt a few tears leak out of my eyes.
"Me too, you have no idea how amazing this is right now…"
"I think I've got a pretty good idea." He kissed my cheek, "So you ready to go?"
"Mhmmm," I nodded, "Come on!" I grabbed his hand and pulled him out to the living room, "We're leaving Hatori-san! See you later!" I called and we ran out the door to the bus station. We could've had Hatori take us, but I didn't feel like bothering him to do that right now.
When we got to the bus stop and waited for it to get here Momiji sat down on the bench and I sat down on his lap, "So… Does anyone else know that it's gone?" I asked.
"No, you're not even supposed to know it's gone."
"Then why did you tell me? What if he finds out? He'll certainly make me lose my memories then!"
"Relax Aki. He's not going to find out. It's not like he'll just show up outside the estate and see us hugging or something. Just make sure you don't do anything in front of Shigure because he really can't be trusted…" He sighed.
"Oh… Ok." I nodded, "I still can't believe it. This is just too amazing." I smiled, "Just when I thought everything was going to hell this happened and I can still smile." I kissed his cheek and the bus came and we got on.
After about an hour the bus stopped at our destination and we go off. It was actually pretty nice out and it was a pretty perfect day to be at the water park. The place wasn't completely packed, but it was still pretty full. I grabbed Momiji's hand to make sure I wouldn't get separated from him, "So what do you want to go on first?" he asked.
"Uhm… How about that one?" I asked excitedly pointing at a large water slide.
"What ever you want." He smiled and we started walking towards it.
When we got to it I couldn't believe how tall it was! It was freaking gigantic! I was starting to feel a little reluctant to it, but I can't back out now. I'm sure it won't be that bad. I took a deep breath and we started walking up the steps to get to the top.
"You ready?" He smiled as I sat down and put our shirts and the locker thingy.
"Uhm… Sure..?" I gave a nervous smile and felt my stomach sink when I looked down.
"You'll be fine Akemi. Don't worry about it." He gave me a kiss before I dropped down the fully enclosed slide. It was a pretty good adrenaline rush.
