The next morning after waking up surprisingly alone, Burchard makes his way to the beach wearing some black trunks he borrowed from the hotel, and makes his way to where he was told Shido's class would be. Spotting Shido lying sprawled out under a beach umbrella. Burchard goes and sits next to him while saying, "morning Shido."

-

Shido on the other hand Simple's groans in response, now concerned he looks down at him while asking, "so how did your night go?"

-

Still lying face down Shido replies in a muffled tone, "well you already know what happened in the bath, but after that Kaguya decided to continue the attack by barging into my room and trying to spend the night with me. As you can guess I didn't get much sleep last night."

-

Burchard attempts to stifle his laughter to the annoyance of Shido who asks, "well what did you and Yuzuru get up to?"

-

He thinks for a moment then replies, "not to much. We just checked out the town and aside from a handsy asshole it was fun."

-

For some odd reason this answer doesn't make him feel any better as he continues to lay face down while muttering, "well at least one of us had a good night."

-

He then proceeds to roll onto his back with his eyes closed and says, "at least I can get some rest now."

-

Feeling someone's eyes on him, Burchard looks off into the distance and what he sees causes him to sigh disheartedly while look back at Shido and saying, "you should enjoy that as much as you can right now cause it isn't going to last much longer."

-

Meanwhile a few dozen feet away, Yuzuru and Kaguya both peer out from behind some bushes at the their targets while Kaguya snickers mischievously then says, "haha! You'd might as well admit defeat now Yuzuru! I spent all of last night conditioning Shido to fall for me today!"

-

While still looking at Burchard, Yuzuru responds , "rebuttal: all you did was tire him out chasing him around all night. He is most likely going to fall asleep before you can do anything."

-

Annoyed Kaguya snaps back, "shut up!!! I was simply tiring him out so he was easier to win over today!"

-

Unfazed Yuzuru responds, "rebuttal: you are simply delusional if you believe that will work."

-

Now angry Kaguya says, "oh yeah? Well if my plan is so terrible then do tell me how your conquest of Burchard's heart went?"

-

She replies, "disappointment: no matter what Yuzuru tried. Nothing seemed to affect him."

-

Shouting with a strange amount of glee she says, "HA! I knew you couldn't do anything yet here you are critiquing me! I must say I am quite disappointed in you Yuzuru."

-

Yuzuru swiftly responds, "rebuttal: at least Yuzuru didn't chase anyone out of the bath."

-

Kaguya looks back at her shocked while saying, "you heard about that?"

-

Yuzuru calmly replies, "reply: Yuzuru and Burchard were walking past the baths when we witnessed Shido jump over the divider wall. Yuzuru should also point out that Burchard was with Yuzuru willingly unlike Shido who climbed a wall to get away from you."

-

Kaguya starts to fume but before she can retaliate, a monotone voice from behind them says, "all this bickering isn't helping the conquests of your targets."

-

They both look back to see a sleep deprived looking reine standing there holding a styrofoam coffee cup overflowing with sugar cubes in one hand and two bottles of lotion in the other. Intrigued Yuzuru asks while pointing at them, "question: what are those for?"

-

Reine casually hands the lotion to them while saying, "I think these should help you two win them over."

-

Back under the beach umbrella, Shido sleeps soundly while Burchard looks out over the ocean, however their current peace gets interrupted by a cheerful sounding girl shouting, "there you guys are!"

-

Shido wakes up with a feeling of dread starting to consume him as they both look over to see Yuzuru and Kaguya walking towards them causing Shido to sigh disheartedly then says, "guess my nap is over."

-

To his surprise he doesn't hear anything coming from next to him and when he looks over at Burchard, he sees him staring off into space. Now intrigued he follows his gaze and notices that he is in fact staring at Yuzuru who walks over wearing a white bikini with frizzy black accents. This causes Shido to sigh disheartedly then looks back at the twins while Kaguya, wearing the mirror opposite bathing suit of her sister, walks up to him and he says, "hey Kaguya. Your swimsuit looks good."

-

The compliment catches her off guard and causes her to blush profusely then looks away while saying, "w-why thank you."

-

Meanwhile Yuzuru walks up to Burchard and notices him staring at her which causes her cheeks to turn slightly red while asking, "question: why are you staring?"

-

The question brings him back and after shaking away his zoned outness he says with a smile, "sorry for staring. You just look really cute."

-

Though she was prepared for it, the compliment still turns her face bright red as she looks away to hide her embarrassment while responds, "rebuttal: thank you for the compliment."

-

Ironically enough, Kaguya and Yuzuru now find themselves looking at each other and seeing the others embarrassment fills them with a new found resolve as they simply nod to each other. They both look back at the two equally confused boys and Kaguya throws Shido the lotion while declaring, "alright Shido! You get the privilege of applying lotion to my back!"

-

He looks back at her confused while simply asking, "huh?"

-

She looks back at him with a grin while replying, "it is every boys dream to get to touch a beautiful girls bare back and I will happily provide that dream for you."

-

Realizing that he didn't have any other viable options, Shido sighs disheartedly then looks at her with a smile while saying, "yeah. That sounds good to me."

-

Kaguya giddily lays down on her stomach as Shido kneels next to and tries to prepare himself while holding the sunscreen with a hard enough grip to bend the bottle. Meanwhile Yuzuru stands in front of a still sitting Burchard while still looking at her sunscreen and thinking, "confusion: Though he complimented my looks, it didn't seem to be Yuzuru's swimsuit nor the abundance of exposed skin. It was just Yuzuru….."

-

She puts a hand to her chin as she goes into a deep thought, "contemplation: these past two days he has shown no interest in what any normal teenage boy would dream of. With that being the case Yuzuru cannot take the same path as her sister."

-

She looks over at Shido and sees him still mentally preparing himself for the task at hand which causes her to think, "though Yuzuru's not sure it is working for her either."

-

Seeing her lost in thought, Burchard stands up while asking, "you alright Yuzuru?"

-

Seeing him standing in front of her now, an idea comes to mind as she points to something on his towel and asks, "question: can you please get Yuzuru's sunglasses from the towel?"

-

He looks over at the towel but is confused to see nothing there causing him to look back while asking, "there not there?"

-

She responds, "inquiry: can you check again?"

-

He looks at her with confusion while asking, "why?"

-

She responds with her head tilted to the side while asking, "convincing: please?"

-

He continues to look at her with confusion but not thinking anything of it, he simply shrugs it off while looking back and saying, "alright."

-

Still seeing nothing he hears her say, "look closer."

-

Now becoming mildly suspicious of her intentions but not enough to question, he leans forward when suddenly he feels his legs pulled out from underneath him which causes him to fall forward and face plant into his towel. Confused as to what the hell just happened, he attempts to lift himself up but feels a hand press against his back forcibly hold him down while Yuzuru says, "order: stay lying down."

-

Now even more confused then before he asks, "uh? What are you doing?"

-

She responds, "explanation: Yuzuru does not want you to get sunburned therefore she will put lotion on your back."

-

He attempts to get up again while saying, "oh you don't need to worry about…."

-

He gets cut off by her yet again damn near slamming him back to the ground while she says, "demand: Do not move."

-

Realizing that he was literally in no position to deny her, he simply lays there while saying, "alright then."

-

As he lies there, he gets caught off guard by sudden muffled screaming coming from next to him and when he looks over he sees Kaguya lying there with a look of discomfort across her face along with Shido's oily hands on her back. Burchard looks at him suspiciously while asking, "what did you do to her?"

-

He looks at Burchard with shock while stating, "I barely touched her?"

-

Not sure if he believes him, Burchard looks to Kaguya while asking, "Kaguya? You okay?"

-

She replies in a whimper, "I'm fine but his hands are cold."

-

Satisfied with the answer, he looks back down at his towel when a thought comes to mind while he thinks, "hang on. I'm basically at the mercy of a girl that has been trying to use her body to make me fall for her. What is she going to do?"

-

He nervously lies on his towel with a million different thoughts running through his head of what could possibly happen next when he hears Yuzuru ask, "question: are you ready?"

-

He shakily replies, "uh…. I don't know."

-

She immediately responds, "disappointment: that is unfortunate."

-

He flinches when he feels her hands firmly press against his back and causing it to tense up but he notices something strange about her touch. Instead of the teasing/ seductive touch he was expecting, it was gentle and felt almost caring. Since he can't see her he was honestly doubting wether the person touching his back was in fact Yuzuru. With his doubt slowly taking over he finally asks, "uh Yuzuru? You are the one touching me right?"

-

"Confirmation: yes it is me."

-

She looks down at him with a raised eyebrow while asking, "curiosity: who else would it be?"

-

He chuckles guiltily a bit then replies, "I honestly don't know."

-

Still confused she asks, "question: why did you think it was not Yuzuru?"

-

He replies, "well honestly it was because of your touch."

-

Now intrigued she asks, "inquiry: what about Yuzuru's touch?"

-

He replies guiltily, "well I was expecting a more forceful approach but instead you're hands feel gentle."

-

She goes quiet for a moment to his confusion until her hands start moving again while saying, "explanation: you did not respond positively to Yuzuru's previous advances so Yuzuru decided to change tactics."

-

Surprised by the response, he says, "oh? Not going to lie, I am surprised."

-

He now feels her seductively tracing along his back with her finger while asking, "seduction: would you rather Yuzuru do this?"

-

Starting to panic Burchard blurts out, "no! Actually I was enjoying what you were doing before."

-

She chuckles to herself to the confusion of Burchard who had only ever heard her breath strangely while she continues to rub his back like before. He finds himself really enjoying her back rub to the point that he starts to feel light headed though the sound of Kaguya squirming next to him stops him from reaching total bliss. While he lies there, Yuzuru continues to massage his back but pauses when she pokes a spot while asking, "inquiry: what are these scars?"

-

Surprised by the question he asks, "I have scars on my back?"

-

She starts circling two spots on his back while replying, "rebuttal: you have two small hole like scars on your back."

-

Now confused he responds, "oh? Well my memory is still gone so I'm not surprised I don't remember getting those."

-

She starts massaging his back once more while saying, "confirmation: Yuzuru's hopes no one hurt you in your past."

-

He sighs in relief then responds in a soft voice, "I hope so to."

-

She continues rubbing his back thoroughly while asking, "inquiry: how does that feel?"

-

There's no response. Now confused she asks, "inquiry: are you okay?"

-

"Zzzzzzzzz."

-

He starts to softly snore causing Yuzuru to smile at him while saying, "confirmation: Yuzuru shall take that as a yes."
