"So cute." Reki jolts at the new voice beside him, an embarrassed blush on his face when he turns his head. "That's what you're thinking, isn't it?"
You turn your head towards them, Reki avoids your gaze while Langa gives you a pointed look, flickering his eyes between you and Reki.
Good grief. You thought. Ever since Langa found out Reki stays the night at your house he's been sending you cryptic texts about the two of you.
"It's not like that." He says, crossing his arms.
"Is that your type, Reki?" He turns his head to you when you chime in, you don't look amused. He panics.
"What? No! No, of course not!" He laughs enthusiastically, too much. "I just like their dress, that's all! I think my sister would like it, I mean, it's not for me."
You catch a glance at Langa, he looks amused. "Reki, I was just asking." He turns away from you, holding his face in his hands, if you look hard enough you can see the smoke wafting from his ears.
"Not like you have a chance with them anyway." Miya chimes in, not looking up from his game. "It'd be like beauty and the beast but worse."
"You shut your trap!" Reki shouts, the heavy blush on his face not doing him any justice. "And you!" He turns to you this time, you're giving him an innocent expression. His fingers pinch your cheeks, he ignores the skip of his heart when your fingers clasp around his wrist and pulls lightly at them. "You've got to stop flustering me!"
You manage to pull his hands away, grinning up at him. "I make you flustered?" He rolls his eyes, shoving your face to the side.
Langa comes up beside you, nudging your bicep with his elbow before pointing towards something. You deadpan when you see Kojiro with two girls linked to his arms, the guy just doesn't take a break.
There's a break of silence when Kaoru is revealed, your sunken to the floor with a dejected expression permanently settled on your face. They find it amusing.
You watch them skate off one by one once you're off the ship, teetering on your heels as you look at Shadow. He's expecting you to leave him behind too. He fails to hide the shock when you pick up the luggage, twirling the rental car's keys on your finger.
"You're not leaving?" He asks, he sounds like he's near tears.
You throw the bag into the trunk, looking at him over the side of the car. "Consider this as rival bonding time. Unless you want to leave and have me take this."
He purses his lips, he clearly wants to go. "I'll help with the luggage, then leave." You shrug in response, moving to pick up another bag.
He's quick when putting them in the trunk, taking off on his board with a loud thank you. That's the first.
