"And I love collecting gems on the beach. They're just so...beautiful." Azumi stared off into the horizon as her and Shuichi kept walking on the beach. "Hey..it's been almost two days without talking to Rantaro and I can't take it anymore." Shuichi said and Azumi nodded.
"Ah, yes! I forgot to tell you after I came back from the walk before lunch," She grabbed something out of her pocket and handed to him. It was a piece of sea glass in the shape of a heart. "I can get him out here and you can give him this. Just tell him that although he lied, you can't live without him. Also that the reason his pillow is wet is because you cry yourself to sleep every night since you miss him." Azumi said and Shuichi beamed.
"Ugh, what would I do without you?" He hugged her and she smiled. "Don't thank me. Now when we get back, stay down here. I'll get him." She said as they started walking back.

Shuichi waited down at the beach, clutching the sea glass in his hands. He could see Rantaro approaching and when Rantaro spotted him he sighed and sort of smiled. He walked down over to him and Shuichi avoided eye contact.
"I'm...still sort of mad at you," Shuichi said and Rantaro nodded. "B-but I...I still love you and my feelings will never change. I was just a little mad that you lied. You know I hate lies..." Shuichi said and Rantaro sighed and hugged him. "I know, and I'm so sorry I lied. You seemed to be so fascinated and I loved when you were fascinated and--ugh, I'm just happy you love me again." Rantaro said it as if he were holding it in forever.
"I...have something for you," Shuichi said as they released from the hug. He handed Rantaro the heart shaped sea glass and he smiled. "Oh, where did you find this?" Rantaro asked and Shuichi giggled. "She remains unnamed," He said and Rantaro chuckled. "but she loves collecting gems and-" Rantaro tilted the others' head up and kissed him, catching the blue haired boy by surprise. It was a quick kiss but the two got so much love out of it.
"S-sorry, i-it's just been a while..." Rantaro said and Shuichi shook his head. "No no it's okay, I get it. I miss it too." He said and the two smiled. Rantaro put the sea glass in his pocket and put his arms around Shuichi's waist. "So does this mean we can sleep together again?" Rantaro asked and Shuichi's face turned pink. "U-uh.."
"I mean in the same bed, dummy," He smirked and Shuichi relaxed. "Y-yeah, it does..." Shuichi said and Rantaro smiled. "...my head hurts again." Shuichi fake whined and Rantaro smirked, pressing his lips on his forehead. Rantaro pulled away and this time Shuichi leaned forward and locked lips with the green haired boy.
Rantaro quickly fluttered his eyes closed and kissed him back. "We should go back to the house," Rantaro said through the kiss. "Mmmm...one more minute..." He said and Rantaro smiled.

"Mmm...Shuichi..." Rantaro tried pushing the blue haired boy off of him, but he didn't budge. "One more minuuuute.." Shuichi said for the hundredth time. "Shuichi, you've been saying that since we started kissing at the beach," Rantaro said and Shuichi finally stopped kissing the boy. "Mmph...how long have we been kissing..." Shuichi asked tiredly.
"Ugh, I don't know, it's probably almost midnight...come on, let's get some sleep." Rantaro said as they cuddled up together and shut their eyes, drifting off to sleep.

"So, Shuichi. Now that you and Taro have found us all and got together, what're you gonna do now? You can't stay here forever." Masako asked Shuichi while the entire family were walking on the beach. He found it odd that all of Rantaro's sisters liked him, but he didn't complain.
"I don't know...I don't wanna leave you guys here and I know for a fact Taro loves it here." Shuichi said and she nodded. "I want to stay but I don't want to leave all my friends back home." He sighed. "I have an idea! We can either come with you or your friends can come here! You know most of us want to travel the world, and it doesn't have to be by boat," She smiled and he returned it. "I'll talk to Taro about it but I'm sure he won't mind. Thanks so much, Sako." He smiled at her and walked over to Rantaro.
"Hey, babe, can I talk to you?" He asked and Rantaro nodded. "Yeah, of course! First though, you haven't really met Amano yet." He replied and Rantaro pointed over to a girl talking to Azumi who looked about the same height at Rantaro. "Go over and say hi." He told him and Shuichi shyly made his way over to the girl.
"H-Hey, Taro told me to come talk to you," He tapped her shoulder and she spun around. "Oh, you're Shuichi, right?" She asked happily and he nodded. "Taro's told me a lot about you! You seem like so much fun!" She exclaimed and he smiled. "Th-thanks, he's told me about you too." He said.
The two hit it off, just like Shuichi did with all of Rantaro's sisters. Finally Shuichi got back to Rantaro with a shy smile on his face. "Amano is energetic as hell," He said and Rantaro laughed. "Yeah, she has that energetic tone, doesn't she? Now what did you want to talk to me about?" Rantaro asked and Shuichi nodded.
"Right. So Sako asked me if we were going home and I said I don't know since I don't want to leave them here but I wanna see Kokichi and Kiibs and Tsumugi and Kirumi again...so Sako said that I could either bring your sisters with us home or bring the squad here." Shuichi told him and Rantaro thought.
"Well...what do you want to do?" Rantaro asked and Shuichi shrugged. "Anything, as long as you're with me. Whatever makes you happy." Shuichi said, slipping his hand into Rantaro's. "For me, the one that sticks out is the one where the squad comes here....I love it back home but...I'm not leaving my family again," Rantaro said and Shuichi nodded. "Alright. We'll talk to them when we get back to the house."
Sure enough, the squad was on board. In about four months they had all packed and moved, and for Shuichi and Rantaro, they had moved to a nearby beach house where the squad could stay with them until they found a house for themselves. Kirumi insisted on being the maid since it was her main interest and she wasn't going to the money, but Rantaro had insisted on paying her for being so kind. Kiibo said he'd do a lot of the cooking with Kirumi (she was helping him figure it out since he loved it and Kokichi couldn't cook for shit) which earned him a few dollars. Kokichi wanted money for panta but Kiibo promised him he would buy some for him (which everyone would find out is a lie or not soon). Tsumugi didn't care for the money either, but she decided to make her and Kirumi's bed and insisted not to pay her. She had a bit of OCD just like her girlfriend so she always had the urge to make a bed. She also volunteered to make Kokichi and Kiibo's bed but they said no, so she promised not to go in their room.
And this was all over a call, they hadn't even seen each other yet. But they would soon.
"We miss you boys and we can't wait to see you!" Tsumugi cheered and Kokichi nodded. "Yeah! Kiibs and I have soooooo much to tell you!" He exclaimed and Shuichi laughed. "Can't wait to hear it! I can't wait to see you guys!" He smiled. "Will we get to see Rantaro's sisters?" Kokichi asked. "Yup!" Shuichi said and Kokichi giggled. "Yay!"
The thing the two boys couldn't wait to tell the others was that they were dating.
