These past few days had been wonderful. Ran is a very doting boyfriend. He's learned how to cope with my random whims here and there. He's always picking me up after practice and after work. What did I do to deserve him? He's way out of my league, yet here I am recieving his neverending attention and love.

I'm leaving for Rimini with the team today, the guys will be following in a couple of days. We were at the stadium to take the bus as a team to the airport. My brothers and my dad were there to see me off. My dad crying, telling me that he's so proud of me. My brothers sending me off with some snacks for the flight. Ran managed to see me off since he had practice that same day.

"I'll miss you" he said, engulfing me in a hug.

"It's only for a couple of days then I'll see you again"

"3 days.." he pouted.

"You'll survive, I'll let you know when we get to the hotel" I told him as I pulled away after hearing coach Nakada saying that we're leaving.

"Kiss?" he asked.

My dad and brothers were there, watching us. My dad found out that we were together that same day and I'm not entirely sure how he feels about it, but as far as I know he seems fine.

"You know 5 men are watching right behind you" I told him.

"I'll die happy" he said before leaning down.

I met halfway, on my tippy toe, to kiss him.

"Alright, love birds, we gotta go. Finish that up in Rimini" I heard Ishikawa-san say.

He gave me one more hug before letting me go, before my brothers and dad stepped up next to him, my dad putting a hand on his shoulder.

"Don't worry, Aya-chan, we'll take good care of Ran-kun," Daisuke-nii said, smirking.

I waved goodbye to everyone and boarded the bus.

The flight was long with a couple of layovers. I messaged Ran during our layovers and sending him a selfie of where we were. I told him how I ran out of pocky for the remainder of the flight. I also asked him about my dad and brothers. He replied quickly and told me that he'll bring me some pocky and telling me how much he misses me. He also told me that he had dinner with my family. He told me that my dad basically scolded him for turning me down back then, but he came around after seeing me happy.

We arrived in Rimini that Saturday afternoon before the first match, we have two days to practice. The weather was so nice and the city was just beautiful. We're staying in Savoia Hotel, a beach front hotel. Ishikawa-san and I were paired up for a room. The room was cozy and has a gorgeous view of the beach.

"Coach said we're free for the rest of the day to relax and explore, but make sure that we're back by 6:30 for dinner" she said as she laid down on one of the two beds.

"The beach looks nice, you want to explore with me?" I asked as I sent Ran a message, telling him that we're in the hotel now and sending him a picture of the view.

"Sure! I hope you brought a swimsuit, they do have an indoor pool" she said as she opened her luggage pulling out her own pair and a cover up.

She went and changed in the bathroom, she came out with a beach volleyball style of swimsuit with a sheer dress cover up.

"Wow! You look great!" I exclaimed.

"Arigato, your turn"

I brought a couple of pair of swimsuit, both were bikinis but one of them is a little too... skimpy? I wore the less skimpy looking one. The top was kinda like a bra, I suppose, it was a halter push up in lilac. The bottom was the same color but I decided to wear shorts on top and short sleeved hoodie.
