Chapter 28

(A/N Notes: I'll be on vacation from writing, for more information please read the chapter until the end)

"... Fuu... Fuu... Mmmmnnn... Funyaaaaahhh..."

Yuriko sleepily woke up with a yawn, and she saw a wall, then she turned to face the ceiling and saw someone's head

"..."

"Ah! You woke up"

"If it isn't Takeru *gently rubs his cheek*"

And she turned again facing the opposite side

"... Y, Yuriko-san?"

"Fuuaahhh..." *Presses her face Takeru's tummy*

"..." <... Wait... ... ..."

Yuriko then opened her eyes again and looked up, seeing Takeru's face again

". . . !?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? T, T, T, Takeru-kun!?"

"Yes, yes, it's me Takeru, Yuriko-san" *Holding Youriko down so that she won't headbutt his chin a second time* "Now, if you could stop struggling so much, I would thank you, or else I might become unable to hold it down"

"Eh? Huh? H, Hold down what?"

"... You don't need to know it yet"

"O, Okay"

Yuriko calmed down and stopped struggling, thanks to Takeru's calm(externally) words. Then she sat up, right by Takeru's side, as she blushed and looked down

"... W, why was I receiving a l, lap p, pillow from you?"

"Takahashi-san made me sit here, then she and Inoue-san just dragged you out from the women's changing room while you were unconscious, and put your head on my lap"

"I, I see"

Yuriko cursed and thanked her two childhood friends for doing that

"... Well... Since you're okay now, I'll be taking my leave"

When he tried to get up, Yuriko hugged one of his arms and rested her head on his shoulder as she pouted her cheeks

"I still want to spend some time with you"

"..." *Faces away from Yuriko as he covers his face with his free hand*

They stayed silent like that for some minutes, until Yuriko broke the silence

"Don't you want to go to the beach, Takeru-kun?"

"No, I don't want to"

"Not even with me?"

"... M, Maybe?"

It was easy for him to falter since it was Yuriko who was asking him

"You that two-piece swimsuit you put together with the others back at the store?"

"... Yes?"

"I also bought it"

*Shudders* "..."

"And since I already used one of the two, that swimsuit is the only one I can use tomorrow..."

"Fine! You win! I'll go to the beach with you and your friends! Are you happy now?"

"Yes, very!"

Takeru was unable to keep his poker face and succumbed to his desires, then Yuriko stopped hugging his arm so that she could embrace him

"Ehehehehe!"

"*Sigh* You're really an adorable girl"

Takeru couldn't do much, but pat Yuriko's head. They kept pampering each other like that for some minutes until they decided to go back to their rooms

Yuriko's inn room

Yay! I managed to invite Takeru-kun to come along with us

"Ah! You're finally back, Yu-chan. So? How was your little time with Takeru-kun?"

"It was good, thanks for asking"

"Did something happen for you to in that good mood?"

"Ah! Yes! I managed to invite Takeru-kun to come to the beach with us"

"Aah... Good for you, but you know that you only have that two-piece swimsuit to wear tomorrow, right?"

"Yes, what about it?"

"... You understand that you'll be wearing a two-piece swimsuit in front of Takeru-kun, right?"

"Yeah, what abo-..."

Wait... I said to him I would be using a two-piece swimsuit tomorrow... A two-piece swimsuit... In front of Takeru-kun...

"..."

" "..." "

"!!!" *Blushing intensely*

I'll be using a two-piece swimsuit in front of Takeru-kun!!! Why didn't I noticed that before!?!?!? AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! WHY AM I ALWAYS LIKE THIS WHENEVER I'M NEAR HIM!?

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh..." *On her knees blushing and tearing up from embarrassment, while covering her face*

" "..." " *Slightly troubled by Yuriko's late reaction to her own actions*

"... ... ... By the way... Why was I unconscious?"

"Dunno, I just found you completed frozen near the hot spring bamboo wall and with your nose bleeding quite a lot"

"Huh? Why was my nose bleeding?"

"*Shrugs shoulders* As if I would know"

"Hmmm..."

Let's see... I was about to leave the hot spring when I heard water splashes coming from the other side of the bamboo wall, then I went to keep watch of any pervert and then... Ugh! What is with this headache?

...

Yuriko's brain had automatically made her forget whatever she had seen on the men's hot spring right before she passed out

Takeru's inn room

*Closes the door behind him* "..." *Fall to his knees*

WHY!? WHY IS YURIKO-SAN SO CUTE AND ATTRACTIVE!? DO YOU KNOW HOW MUCH TROUBLE I HAD TO PASS TO NOT GET HARD AND NOT CRAVE IN TO MY DESIRES!?!?!?

"..." *Get his back on the floor and covers his face with both hands*

AND YET I STILL CRAVED IN TO MY DESIRE TO SEE HER IN A TWO-PIECE SWIMSUIT!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!

Some minutes later

"Haa... Phew..."

I managed to calm myself... ... ... I guess, I'll go play some games to cool down my head before going to sleep

The morning of the next day

" "..." "

Takeru and Yuriko were both feeling tired, since they both stayed awake until late in the night, Takeru because he kept playing games, and because of all the naps he had early in the day, he didn't felt a single drop of sleep, while Yuriko couldn't stop thinking about wearing the swimsuit in front of Takeru

"... Do you two want to come later?"

"No, I'm fine"

"Yes, please"

" "..." "

The two glared at each other with their sleep-deprived eyes

"Takeru-kun... We'll go to the beach right now"

"And what if I say for us to go there later, Yuriko-san?"

The two continued to glare at each other

"Then you leave me no choice, Takeru-kun... Ei!"

"Huh!?"

Yuriko tightly embraced him, making him blush

"Then this is a game for two. Ei!"

"Eh!?"

And in response, Takeru tightly embraced Yuriko, making her blush too. The two kept hugging each other until one of them gave up, but all they were achieving was self-destructing themselves as they started to feel embarrassed about hugging each other but being too stubborn to stop themselves from doing so

"... They're perfect for each other"

"... Yeah, the ideal dorks for a stupid couple"

That was everything Ayano and Aki could say as they watched the two being stupid with one another, and making it more embarrassing for Takeru and Yuriko

Minutes later

"Ahahahaha!"

"Hehehehehe!"

"Those two sure are having fun"

"Yeah..."

" "..." "

Takeru and Yuriko were sitting on the towel, under a sunshade, with Yuriko wearing her large parka

"Aren't you going to enter the sea, Yuriko-san?"

"Not feeling like entering right now, and right about you Takeru-kun?"

"The sun gonna kill me before that"

"Aren't you exaggerating?"

"Don't underestimate my capacity of getting overheated"

"... How can you even say that with pride?"

"Hey! Aren't you two going to join us?"

"Ah! Coming"

Yuriko then got up and offered a hand to Takeru

"C'mon, let's join the on the sea"

"... Aren't you going to remove your parka?"

"... I don't feel like doing it right now"

"Gotcha!"

"!?"

"Ei!"

And without noticing Aki hugged Yuriko from behind and unzipped her parka and removed it from her. Revealing Yuriko's body and her two-piece swimsuit right in front of Takeru

"Oi! What were you thinking!?"

"What? You didn't plan on wearing this parka all day were you?"

"Ermm... ... ... M, maybe?"

"And didn't you promise to use it for a certain someone?"

"...! T, Takeru-kun! I, I can... Takeru-kun?..."

Takeru was frozen on the spot with his face blushing

"Eh? Ah! I, it looks good on you, Yuriko-san"

Then a line of blood began to run down from his nose, as he fell to the side and unconscious

"TAKERU-KUN!"

He had passed out from overheating, due to the sun's heat, and from Yuriko's over-stimulating looks

(A/N Notes: So for the month of March, I'll be acting as if I was dead, and won't be doing my weekly writing, yes, I write around 3 to 5 chapters per week, sometimes more, other times less

So anyway, for the month of March I won't be writing weekly, but if by any chance I stumble into a pit of inspiration and motivation, I might write, it may be a new story or just another chapter from my current ones, probably something new because of my stupidity

Oh! And before I forget, only this story will keep its weekly updates, why? Because it's the only one with enough drafts for 1 or 2 months... Maybe 2 and a half... Yeah, that's about it, so see you guys after March!

*Puts on a straw hat and leaves*)
