"Food, food, food, food!"
Both the boys rubbed their temples while the girls bounced ahead of them, chanting.
"Do you mind keeping quite? Giving us a headache here." Shū said. Ayame swatted at his shoulder.
"No, seriously, keep quite." Drew said, catching May's waist to stop her.
"Hey, let me go!" May squealed.
Drew laughed and Ayame chuckled.
"Drew, let her go, won't you?" Shū said as he pushed the glass doors of the restaurant and held it open for the three.
Drew drew (?) back his arm and the four people walked inside.
They slid into the seats near the window, May and Drew on one side and Ayame on the other side with Shū.
"So, lovely ladies. Place your order." Shū said, pushing the menus towards the other three.
"I don't know…" Ayame and May mutter simultaneously.
"Food, food, food, food!" Drew chanted mockingly.
"Shut up, cabbage patch." Ayame and May snapped.
Shū sniggered. Drew glared.
May and Ayame laughed.
Waitress cleared her throat.
"What would you like to order?"
"Uh," The four sweat dropped, "5 minutes, please?"
O.o
"So, children," a pointed stare from his brother and the brunette, "have you registered for you contest yet?"
"No, nii-chan," Drew started, "the booth opens in half hour."
"Hey, Ayame? Are you also taking part in the contest?" May asked.
"Uh…" Ayame glanced at Shu.
"Yes. She is, actually." Shū said.
"She is?" Drew choked on the water he was drinking and May squealed.
"I am?" Ayame looked at him, surprised.
"She is." Shū nodded with a smile.
"I am." Ayame sighed. "And I was on a vacation."
"Vacation?" May questioned.
"No, May. We are always working." Shū grinned.
Drew buried his head in his arms and May tilted her head in confusion.
"That is the problem. We always have to work." Four heads snapped up to the source of the voice.
"What are you doing here?" Shū blurted out. Ayame rolled her eyes.
"That's not very nice, boss." Said the grinning boy. His hair was a strange sliver blue color and his eyes a light shade of grey. He was wearing a dark green tee shirt with light blue jeans and a black jacket along with a black beanie.
"Why are you here? You were supposed to come today afternoon!" Ayame nearly shrieked.
"That is not very nice either." He scrunched up his nose.
Shū closed his eyes tightly for a second before opening them and looking at the still grinning boy.
"Drew, May, this is Kei. Kei this is-"
"The beautiful lady here is May Maple, coordinator." May blushed when he kissed her hand.
"And Drew boy! Hey kid, how are you?" Drew gritted his teeth.
Ayame leaned over the table to whisper to May, "He is sweet and happy. Too happy."
May chuckled softly.
"Well? Are you going to let me sit or should I get my own chair?"
"Get your own chair." Shū muttered.
"Fine." Kei spun on his heel and headed for the circular tables with the chair. He walked up to a waiter cleaning an empty table, "Do you mind if I take this chair?"
"Kei!" Ayame and Shū called at the same time, Ayame pulling Shū towards her to make place for the boy.
"What?" Waiter stared at the boy dumbfounded.
"Never mind. Thank you. Can I have a coffee, please?" Kei said cheerily. He slid next to Shū and grinned at him.
"Hey, May. Kei Akagi. Nice to meet you." Kai shook her hand.
"Nice to meet you too!" May replied, smiling wide.
"Akagi, what are you doing here?" Ayame asked, leaning around Shū to talk to the boy.
"Akagi? We are on surnames again?" Kei feigned hurt.
"Kei, why are you here?" Shū asked.
"I heard you are here, boss!" Kei looked at the man, eyes shining with admiration. "And the kid too!"
"I am only a year younger than you!" Drew interrupted.
"Two." Kei corrected.
All the while, May continued with her burger and watched the conversation going around her. Ayame looked suspicious, Shū looked annoyed and Drew was appearing impassive. Kei was happy, at least.
Suddenly Kei stopped smiling and turned seriously towards Ayame, "Hey, how is charmander?"
Ayame looked up from her fries, "He is good. Nurse Joy said you can pick him up after lunch today."
Relief spread over the boy's face and he leaned back into his seat as the waiter placed the cup in front of him.
"So, Drew, May. How many ribbons? You both are coordinators, yes?"
"4." Drew answered.
"3." May nodded.
"Awesome!" He grinned, "Boss! Is your wife taking part?"
"Ayame is not my wife!" Shū pulled his ear.
"Ow, ow, ow, ow!" Kei cried, "I never said 'Ayame'!"
May and Drew laughed. Ayame blushed, "Yes, I am."
"I never said Ayame!" Kei protested. Shū smacked his head.
O.o
"Done." Drew announced. Shū pushed himself away from the wall he was leaning on and the girls stopped chatting.
Kei rubbed the back of his neck, "Man, its crowded here…Ayame, did you even have a ribbon?"
Ayame didn't answer but looked at Shū. Kei looked at Shū questioningly, which Shū returned with a smirk.
"Don't tell me you…" Drew whispered as he walked past Shū to May.
"Was there a choice? Plus, this is a national affair…" Shū muttered back, still smirking.
Kei rolled his eyes, "I also wanted to take part!"
"You are not beautiful enough! And you are clumsy!" Ayame said.
"I am not clumsy! I am as graceful as-Eek!"
May, Drew, Ayame and Shū sweat dropped as they watched Kei push himself up from the ground.
O.o
"What a day!" May sighed as she fell back on the bed, staring up at the ceiling.
"Day? My dear, this is just morning." Drew glanced at her as he took off his jacket.
"It's 3. Afternoon."
"Yeah, I know." He turned his head to look out of the window.
Shū, Ayame, Kei and the three people from that morning were going somewhere. The third one had finally abandoned the cloak so that now he could see that she was a girl. Kei was also wearing black this time.
Shū turned his head upward slightly to his window and gave him a small, uncertain smile. Drew returned it with a soft smile, causing Shū's smile to widen.
Drew closed his eyes tightly before opening them again and turning away from the window.
He looked at May on the bed, tilting his head to a side.
"Tsk, tsk," Drew shook his head causing May to shift her attention away from the ceiling and to the boy, "You shouldn't leave yourself so defenseless, Maple."
May rolled her eyes and sat up on the bed, "Oh? Or what, you will attack me?"
"I just might." Drew raised his eyebrow and smirked.
May smiled back and then began laughing. Drew rolled his eyes this time, "I am serious."
"As if you will do something like that." May shook her head and fell back again on the bed.
Drew stared at her for a moment before turning to the bathroom.
May continued to stare at the ceiling, not realizing just when she fell asleep.
Drew opened the bathroom door and saw May still lying on the bed. He closed his eyes and turned away from the girl, who was, by the way, lying on his bed.
After standing still for a moment, he smirked softly. Quietly tip toeing to where the brunette lay; he took a moment to study her calm face. He smiled before he leaned over her.
Slowly he leaned down to kiss her forehead, her temple, her cheek and then her nose.
Her eyes fluttered open and they both stared at each other, his lips hovering a centimeter above her lips.
"What, in the name of Arceus, do you think you are doing?" May breathed out, raising her eyebrow slightly.
"I am proving what I said." Drew grinned.
"And what exactly are you supposed to be proving like this?"
"That you, my dear, are defenseless right now and I was serious when I said I will attack you." Drew said, closing the gap and kissing her.
May pressed her palms to his chest and pushed him gently, "And I am still willing to bet you cannot attack me."
"Cannot?"
"Will not." May corrected.
"And what makes you so sure? I am teenage boy. You are a defenseless girl. I am more than willing to attack you right now." Drew whispered huskily in her ear.
"But you are still not doing that." May pointed out.
"Are you asking me to attack you?" Drew pulled back and stared at her.
May stared at her, her eyebrows raised, "Do I look stupid?"
"As a matter of fact, yes. Yes, you do kind of look stupid right now." Drew grinned and May mock-glared at him.
"No, I am not inviting you right now. Don't get any wrong signals."
Drew shook his head, leaning down to kiss her neck, "Too late, Maple."
"Eh?" May jumped when he bit her softly and then ran his tongue over it. "Wh-what are you doing?"
"Attacking you." Drew whispered and kissed her on her mouth again.
"B-baka! Why should I let you do this?" May demanded with her face red as he kissed down her neck.
"Why, you ask?"
"Yes, we are not dating or anything." May blurted out before she could stop herself.
Drew froze with his lips on her collarbone. May's stomach turned into a knot in nervous anticipation.
"Actually," Drew muttered as he bought his head and looked at her, "we are not, in fact, dating."
May stared at him as he said that. Slowly she pushed him with her hand so that he was kneeling over her. She sat up and pushed him further, forcing him to stand and then stood up herself.
"Yes, we are not dating." May announced, sneering slightly "So what are we doing? Hooking up?"
Drew stared at her, "Hooking up? We?"
May shrugged, "What are we doing, Drew?"
"May, we are not dating but.."
"So?" May was almost in tears, "a hook up, that's all?"
Drew as still staring dubiously at the brunette, "May…I…"
"Just a toy, huh? Defenseless, naïve little toy for you…" May stepped back away from him and towards the door.
Drew took a step forward, "May, listen to me!"
"Shut up, Hayden." And she slammed the door loudly behind her.
O.o
Kei stretched above his head as high as he could and yawned, "That old geezer!"
The sun was beginning to sink below the horizon as the group walked back to the Pokémon centre.
The petite girl glared at the blue haired man, "Respect."
"Oh," Kei took on a mocking tone, "I almost forgot. You are his biggest fan."
Shū rolled his eyes as both of them glared at each other.
"Guys!" Ayame broke them off.
"I am a girl!"
Shū rubbed his temple and looked at the two men who were walking in silence, "How do you manage her?"
"Shut up, Shū!" The girl glared at him and then began to walk ahead of them.
Shū looked at the two men and they both shrugged helplessly.
Ayame, Kei and Shū grinned.
"Seriously, that was long." Ayame announced, keeping a wary eye on the girl who slowed down a little.
"Why were we called anyway?" Shū asked the others and was met with glares.
"You," The girl turned to look at him, "are supposed to be our senior. And yet, you were absent during the whole meeting. Where were you?"
"With my boss." Shū winked at Ayame and she blushed.
Kei groaned and patted Shū on the back, "We didn't need to know that."
"She came back. Where were you?" The girl kept an unwavering gaze on the raven man.
"Outside. The room is just too stuffy." Shū said.
The girl sighed, "Just how did you manage to become our boss?"
"You are just jealous." Kei butted in.
"Excuse me?"
"I said you are just jealous that he is the boss." Kei repeated, "And you are not."
"What the..." The girl spluttered.
"Kei." Shū placed a hand on his shoulder in warning. Kei just puffed his nostrils before stepping back. One of the two men held the girl back.
They continued to walk in a tense silence before Ayame broke it with a soft giggle, "One would think they like each other."
Both the said people choked and the two men stared at the girl incredulously.
Shū rolled his eyes and pulled his girlfriend closer to himself, pressing her close to his chest in a protective manner, "One day, girl you are going to get yourself killed."
O.o
8 PM
Nurse Joy greeted them when they reached the Pokémon centre and they all had smiled before heading towards the staircase.
"When is your idol calling the next meeting?" Kei sneered at the girl.
She glared at him and then addressed Shū, "Does Drew and May know anything?"
Shū shook his head, "May is absolutely clueless. Drew knows a little but no detail or even the head or tail."
"The next meeting," She addressed Ayame and Shū, ignoring Kei completely, "is day after tomorrow."
She then turned and faced the taller of the two men and stared at him.
After an unspoken conversation, he turned to Kei, "Did you get you Charmander?"
"No." Kei replied, "Not yet."
"Get him quickly. And now." With that said, the two men and the girl turned to go up the stairs.
"I'll go with him. You go and check up on Drew and May." Shū said.
"And knock before you enter." Kei grinned lecherously.
Ayame rolled her eyes and Shū smacked him on the back of his head.
"Bye." Ayame said and started up the stairs.
"Bye." The two men said and walked towards the counter.
"You are a pervert, all right." Shū muttered.
Kei turned to him with a grin, "I had a good teacher."
Shū returned his grin with the one of his own as they reached the counter.
"Nurse Joy!" Kei called.
"Hey! Can I help you?" The women said happily.
"Oh, yes. Only you can help me, Nurse Joy!" Kei sighed, leaning forward.
The nurse blushed, "Uhm.."
"Is Charmander okay?" Shū interrupted.
"Yes, he is ready!" The nurse turned to the older men gratefully, "May I get him?"
"Yes, please." Shū smiled at the nurse as she went into the back room before he deadpanned and turned to Kei, "Seriously?"
Kei chuckled as Shū pulled him up straight by the scruff of his neck, "It is okay sometimes."
"Okay?"
"I am single." Kei retorted, "And you still flirt when you have your wife. It is okay for me!"
"Ayame is not my wife!"
"Did I say she is your wife?" Kei questioned.
"Oh, did you mean-" Shū just began, with a smirk on his lips and one eyebrow raised before Kei interrupted.
"Hey, boss! I was never able to raise just one of my eyebrows! How do you do that?" his whole face was bright red.
Shū chuckled and turned to the counter, "Thanks, Nurse Joy."
Nurse smiled and handed him the poke ball, "Come again!"
"Oh, we are ready to stay here as long as you want!" Shū pulled him by his shirt away from the counter as the nurse turned red again.
"Hey, is that...Drew?"
Before Kei could react, he was being pulled along by Shū.
"Hey, hey boss! What happened?" Kei asked as he started running along with his boss.
"I just saw Drew!" Shū said as he ran towards the forest.
"Drew, why would he be here?"
"Just...shut up and run!" Shū said as he increased his speed when he caught a sight of green.
O.o
Ayame was confused out of her mind. May and Drew were not in the room so she had returned down to the main lobby.
"Nurse joy! Did you see Shū or Kei?"
"Yes," The nurse nodded, "They took charmander and then they ran out of the door. Shū was saying something about seeing Drew."
"Drew?"
Nurse Joy shrugged.
Ayame sighed, "Thank you, Nurse Joy."
"Anytime, Ayame."
Ayame went outside and walked around the centre, "Where are they?"
Sighing in defeat, she went back up to the room. Before going to her own room, she decided to check on May once again.
She turned the knob and peeked inside. She sighed in relief when she saw May sitting on the bed, facing the window and wrapped in a blanket.
"Finally!" Ayame sighed in relief as she walked in the room, "May, where were you?"
"Bathroom." May replied.
"What happened, Mayflower?" Ayame furrowed her eyebrows as she sat down next to her.
"Nothing."
"Do you know where boys are?" Ayame asked again.
"No."
Ayame raised her eyebrows, "May. Did Drew do something? 'Cause I swear if he did something, I'll-"
"No."
"Darling…what happened?" Ayame asked softly as she hugged the girl gently.
"I.." And the dam bursts. "He…I…was…just a…" May spoke through her sobs and cried harder.
"Sh. Calm down..calm down." Ayame hugged her tighter, "Calm down and tell me what happened."
After May calmed down enough, May told her everything that happened. After she finished and looked at Ayame, she was surprised when the older girl began laughing.
"Did he say anything?" Ayame asked, laughter still evident in her voice.
"He said 'we are not dating'!" May exclaimed.
"That is a fact. You are not. Anything else?' Ayame questioned.
"No." May muttered.
"This is what you call 'self assuming', my dear Mayflower!"
"So…does that mean…"
"Drew is not that sort of a person, May. Maybe he would have asked you out if you did not…blow up!"
"Oh Arceus…I am such a…such a…"
"Idiot? Fool? Basketcase?" Ayame supplied.
"Yes! A fool, an idiot, a…huh?"
A chuckle escaped Ayame and soon both of them were laughing.
"Now," Ayame breathed out, "where are the blokes?"
"I really don't know!" May insisted.
"What the bloody hell!" Ayame exploded, "Shū trashed the room!"
"Huh?"
"He must be searching for something!" Ayame decided and stood up, pulling May along with her.
"Searching? What are you talking about?" May asked as she followed Ayame out of the room and into the next.
"See for yourself!" Ayame exclaimed as she swung open the door.
May gasped. Ayame groaned.
The room was upside down.
Clothes were strewn all over the place. The rucksacks were thrown about the room, unzipped and empty. Two or three packets of different chocolates and toffees were lying on the floor and one open packet of éclairs was hanging oddly on the chair. Bed sheets were on the floor and pillows were thrown halfway across the room.
The bathroom door was half open and as they looked inside, it was also in a mess. The cabinet door was open and the items were out on the sink. The shower curtain was down.
"What..happened...here?"May mused.
"Let's find those idiots!" Ayame closed the door after they both were out. May followed the older girl up another flight of stairs and in front of a room. She knocked on two doors which were side by side.
Both the doors swung open. From the left, a young girl peeked out and from the other a man.
"Yes, Ayame?" the man asked. Another taller man came up behind him.
May noticed all three were wearing dark colors.
"Have you seen Shū?" Ayame asked.
"No," the other man answered, "What happened?"
"Nothing, Carlos. Thank you, Damon." Ayame smiled and the men shut the door with a smile.
"Now, is Kei inside?" Ayame questioned he girl.
"No, thank Arceus he is not. What happened, Ayame? Any problem?" The girl asked. Her voice sent shivers down May's spine.
The girl had platinum blond hair and light eyes. She had a small body but as she glanced at May, May decided that she could freeze anybody with her looks.
"No, thank you, Miyuki." Ayame gave her a tight smile.
Miyuki looked at her for a few seconds before she spoke, "Kei was saying something about Drew and boss. Something about bottles and glasses."
Without waiting for a reply, she closed the door. Ayame turned around and released a huge breath.
"Who were they?" May asked with a glance over her shoulder as they walked down the stairs.
"Colleagues." Ayame replied shortly.
"That girl…she gave me chills." May admitted.
"She usually does." Ayame laughed, "That's her job."
May raised her eyebrows but said nothing as they walked out of the centre.
"Now, where are they?" Ayame said, breathing in the fresh night air.
"The clouds…" May sighed.
"Huh? Clouds?" Ayame looked at her confused, "In the clouds?"
"No," May giggled, "Not in the clouds. Dark clouds. Looks like it might rain tonight."
"Oh...I thought they were in the clouds." Ayame sighed as she looked up again.
They walked around the Pokémon centre as they talked about the contest which was 2 days away.
"That's enough guys!" May and Ayame jumped.
"Did you say something? No, I did not!" Both of them stared at each other for a moment before looking around.
The sound of glasses made them both look up.
"What are you doing there?" Ayame shrieked.
Shū, Drew and Kei were sitting on the roof of the Pokémon centre. Shū looked down startled.
"Ayame? May? What are you doing here?"
"That's what I am asking! What are you doing?" Ayame screamed back.
May caught sight of a few bottles, "Were you drinking?"
"Huh?" Ayame looked at May so that her back was to Shū.
The raven haired boy was waving his arms frantically in a 'no' gesture but May ignored him, "Yeah! See, there are few bottles over there!"
Ayame turned to the boys with her gaze spelling out 'murder', "Shū Felix Hayden! Get your sorry butt down here right now!"
Shū closed his eyes and looked up at the sky, "Drew and Kei too?"
"You made those two drink as well?" Ayame asked incredulously.
"What's the problem?" Shū asked as he stood up.
"They are under-age!" Ayame screamed.
"Hey! I am of age!" Kei shouted suddenly, pulling Drew up as well.
"Shut up, Kei! Drew is just 16, for Arceus' sake! And you are supposed to be a-" Ayame began ranting, not noticing what she was saying until Shū jumped down, landing right in front of her.
"Ayame, shut up." Shū said in a flat tone. May stared at them silently before she suddenly screamed when the remaining two boys also jumped down, landing in a crouched position.
Drew staggered a bit and Kei stabled him, "He is wasted."
"What the..." May jumped forward when Drew once again staggered.
"May, no!" Kei held out his arm to stop her.
"What, what is it?" May demanded.
"Wait and watch!" Kei said as he stood behind Drew to keep him from falling.
Suddenly Drew retched. Once, twice, thrice and he threw up. Ayame, Shū and May all jumped back while Kei also took a step back while still holding him, "This is it."
"Ew." Ayame and May chorused.
"Can't hold his alcohol well, can he?" Ayame commented.
"He drank almost a full bottle. Of Vodka."
May and Ayame gaped at him. Ayame snapped out of him and suddenly leaned towards Shū.
"What? What is it? I confess I also drank. No need for a breath check." Shū took a wary step back.
"No, that's not it." Ayame muttered as she leaned yet closer to Shū, her hand holding him in place by his collar.
"Hey! We don't want to see you and boss snog right now!" Kei groaned.
"Shut up, Akagi!" Ayame snapped. "What is this bruise?"
Shū winced when Ayame touched his cheek, "That...that is…"
"Shū?" Ayame questioned.
"It was nothing…just…"
"Oh, that! Drew did that!" Kei blurted out.
"What?" May and Ayame both turned to Kei and Shū did a face palm.
"Ayame! May! It was nothing. He did that with my permission!" Shū said desperately.
"What do you mean by that?" Ayame faced him again.
"He said he wanted to hit me." Shū whispered, his face softening.
"And you let him hit you?" May asked incredulously.
"I always do, don't I, May? Hit me, bite me…"
May's face softened as she remembered the particular incident Shū had told her about, "Idiot."
Ayame and Kei looked at them both with confusion but they just smiled as they waited for Drew to finish.
After Drew stopped vomiting, he passed out. Shū and Kei helped to carry him back to his and May's room.
Shū took off his shoes and jacket and laid him down properly in his bed. He tucked the blanket around him. He gently brushed aside the hair on his forehead and patted his head once before he turned to the other three.
"What?" Shū asked when he saw all of them smiling wide.
"Nothing." They all replied, still grinning.
Shū rolled his eyes, "Can I talk to May for a second?"
"Sure." Ayame nodded and grabbed Kei's wrist and dragged him out and up the stairs.
"You are not going to take advantage of my poor, defenseless, drunken state, are you?" Kei asked, covering himself in mock-fear.
"I just might if you don't shut up!" Ayame rolled her eyes as she knocked on the door in front of them.
Miyuki opened the door a little.
"Miyuki, it's just us!" Ayame said. Miyuki opened the door wider.
"What do you want?" The girl asked in an icy voice.
"Well, excuse me but this room belongs to me as well." Kei said, pushing past her.
"Uh, sorry?" Ayame offered.
"Where did you find them?" Miyuki asked.
"On the roof. Drinking!"
"He is drunk?" Miyuki raised her eyebrow.
"Well, Shū and Kei are not that drunk but Drew is 'wasted'! Almost a whole bottle of Vodka!"
"Didn't boss take care?"
"No! He even let Drew hit him. Apparently Drew wanted to hit him."
"Hit boss? If anyone else tried that, they would be holding their arm in their hand. Must be a brother's thing."
"Yeah, maybe." Ayame laughed. "Anyway, I should get going. Take care, Miyuki."
With a nod, Miyuki closed the door and Ayame hurried down the stairs.
Just as she reached her room and was about to turn the door knob, the next room opened and Shū stepped out followed by a blushing May.
"Thank you. Goodnight, Ayame. Shū." May muttered and closed the door.
Ayame raised her eyebrows at Shū, "What happened to your hair? Looks like a bird made a nest."
Shū chuckled and ran his hand through them.
"Oh. That happened. No problem. You look cute with ruffled hair too."
Shū smirked when Ayame pulled him closer by his collar and pushed him against the door, "In the hallway?"
"Do you mind?" Ayame whispered back as she kissed his cheek.
"Not in the least." Shū cradled her face as he kissed her, softly and then more heated.
"No, I am the boss." Ayame pulled back. Shū closed his eyes as her breath tickled his lips.
"Of course, ma princesse." Shū said as his arms went around her waist. Ayame smiled and kissed him. She began to kiss his cheek, his jaw and then down to his neck.
"Aya…" Shū groaned.
"Do you like that?"
"You bet…" Shū muttered before he bent down to kiss her more easily.
His one hand left her waist and went towards the knob.
Turning it slowly, he let himself into their room while he still held her tightly and without breaking the kiss.
"What the hell did you do here?" Shu suddenly pulled back when he saw the state of the room.
"Me? I did this? It was you who did it!" Ayame retorted as she pulled out from his embrace.
"I? Why would I do…this?" Shū exclaimed as he walked around the room.
"I thought you did this!"
"Why would I trash my own room?"
"When I saw you on the roof…I thought maybe you were searching for the bottles…"
"Bottles? Vodka bottles?"
"Yeah…those were yours, weren't they?"
"Yes, but why would I do this? If they were mine, I would know they were in my bag! I don't need to do...this!"
Ayame's eyes widened, "Then…?"
"Kei and Drew were with me." Shū said, mentally ticking them off.
"May was with me and before that she was in the bathroom. She won't do this anyway."
"Carlos, Damon and Miyuki…they were in there room." Shū added and Ayame nodded to confirm it.
"Then who…?"
"Maybe…" Shū's eyes widened.
Ayame chuckled followed by Shū, "We should take this seriously. We should not laugh. We should report it."
"Yes, let's do that tomorrow." Shū said, pulling Ayame into him again.
"We should do that today…" Ayame muttered half-heartedly.
"It is too late now." Shū whispered, kissing her neck.
"You are too carefree to be our boss. A bad influence on me." Ayame mumbled as she started unbuttoning his shirt.
O.o
"Nothing. Nothing at all." A woman spoke in her mobile. A young man stood behind her as she spoke.
"Nothing? How can that be? Did you search properly?"
"Yes. Ask him if we didn't." She passed the phone to the man.
"Yes, he did not have it. He must have it on himself." The boy said.
"Well? What are you waiting? Where are you right now?"
"We are in the Pokémon Centre. In our room."
"And the others?"
"We are not sure. I just returned."
"Give her the phone."
"Yes." The boy passed the phone to the girl.
"And, where were you?"
"In the room. I returned immediately after I searched his room."
"Then where did it go?"
The boy took the phone from the girl, "Did you send somebody other than us?"
"No, why would I do that? You four are enough to go snooping around, are you not? Or do you need help?"
"No, it's just that we had been seeing some suspicious people around here."
"See what they want. It must be their side."
"Oh, I understand." The boy said as he leaned out of the window and felt a drop on his cheek. Soon it began to rain.
"Anything else?"
"Nothing else."
"Alright. Keep searching and keep your ears and eyes open. We need it before…well, you know."
"We are trying."
"Succeed then. Bye."
"Goodbye."
