"Waaaaaah! I wanna swim too!" We were at the beach's shore, Kyouya's stretching, ready to swim.
"No, stay here," he replied in his usual cold manner.
I sghed, "you're no good! I wanna have fun too!" I pouted like a kid then he ruffled my hair.
"I just wanted to protect you, idiot." That day's events ran through my mind. The salty sea water that burned my eyes...
"It's just as if it was yesterday..." I sighed.
"It is yesterday!" He said with exasperation.
"Tehe~ I was just kidding you." I told him, showing him a peace sign.
"Really, Haruhi." He grinned a small grin. Then when he wasn't looking at me, I made a run for it.
"Yay! Sea!" I jumped up and down like a kid who has never seen a sea in her whole life. I was about to swim until Kyouya saw me.
"You're not fair," I pouted. We were sitting by the sea, building sandcastles that soon get washed away by the waves.
I picked up some shells and placed it on the sandcastle.
"But you're actually enjoying it!" Kyouya pointed out, I looked at myself, holding the bucket full of seashells and a shovel for the sand. You know, those things kids use.
"You're right, I look like a kid..." I let go of the stuff I'm holding then Kyouya whispered something behind my ear.
"But you're a cute one." He took a step back then sat down to build another sandcastle. "Haruhi!" He called me. "Can you get the shells over here?" I did as I was said then he told me that I should be the one decorating so I did.
"Perfect!" I commented. I took my camera, and when I was about to take a picture of it, it got washed away again. "Damn it!" I screamed. "Why does it always get washed away..." I sat, hugging my knees. Then, Renge waved to us, she was having fun at the sea while we're just sitting here, being disappointed.
"Haruhi-chan~! Kyouya-san! Come here!" She called out. I gave Kyouya the puppy eyes so he soon gave up and helped me stand up.
"Coming!" I shouted back. We ran to her but I soon fell down due to excitement I guess. "I-I can get up..." I stood up then walked to her.
When I got there, I saw Renge laughing like crazy.
"Ahahahahhaha! You're too funny Haruhi!"
"How unlady like." I heard a familiar voice, I turned around and saw Fuyumi.
"Fuyumi!" I smiled, hugging her. "I thought you won't come!"
"Ah, to be honest, I was busy with work but I found time so I went here!" Then she paused and looked at Kyouya, "not gonna say hello, Kyouya?"
"Hello." I wonder why Kyouya greeted her flatly...
"Ah, anyway, let's umm... play beach volleyball on water!" I broke the cold atmosphere.
"Sure!" Kyouya switched back to normal and took the beach volleyball.
"Er, is it possible to play here?" Renge asked so we went to the dry land.
"I just hope it doesn't rain or get scorching hot." Fuyumi said as she served the ball, Kyouya and I are the team then Fuyumi and Renge.
She did an overhand serve and I ran to hit the ball. We continued to play until we reached the afternoon.
"Good game, guys!" I told them as we went back to the villa and ate our late lunch.
"Itadakimasu~" We ate our lunch which was tempura and a riceball. It wasn't much but when we- I ate it, I want to go to heaven because it doesn't taste like any normal tempura or riceball, it tastes... different. I tried to control myself from not eating fast because I remembered Fuyumi's lecture about it.
"Eating fast shows that you don't have any manners and that you're unclassy." She said.
I kept that in mind and finished it after a few more minutes. Then, I took a shower humming the song Kyouya sang to me last night.
"Hmm, hmm, hmm... hmmm-mmm. Hmmm~"
After I finished I dressed up into a cute bluish red shorts and a green tee. I blow dried my hair for a few minutes then I went outside to tell Kyouya to take a shower too. "How was the day at the beach Haruhi-san?" His father, Yoshio Otori, asked me. I was actually surprised since he has never actually talked to me like this, never in my life nor in my dreams.
"H-hai..." I answered shyly.
"What did you lot do?"
"Well, we built a sandcastle then we swam around then we played beach volleyball! It was really fun under the sun!" I told him as he laughed at me.
"You sound like a child, it must have been nice to be a youth again." He sighed, he's probably recalling his youthful days. I gave him a grin then I told him that maybe we could play beach volleyball. He also gave me a soft smile then we went outside and started playing with him, I tried to take it easy though but I was soon surprised when he hitted the ball so hard that it went so fast.
"Good one, Mr. Otori!" I complimented him then he smiled, I bet he's flattered! We continued to play until evening arrived, we went back to the villa of course, then we packed up again, like I said before, today's our last day... As soon as we got back, I went upstairs to my room... It can't be! Somethng's wrong... Very wrong...
