Holiday Crush

~8 : End of problems~

In the morning, Mizuki woke up and looked around her. The pale light piercing through the curtains landed on Choso's shirtless body. Surprisingly, he had managed to fall asleep. Being against the one he loved truly helped him rest.

He slowly rubbed his eyes as he realised his girlfriend wasn't sleeping anymore, and quickly came back to snuggle against her shoulder. "Have you slept well ?" he whispered. The woman nodded and caressed his hair softly. "Yeah... What are we gonna do now ? My family's gonna be mad at me for spending the night here..." Choso huffed. "Why would you care ? Just stay with me and enjoy your holiday, I'll be there to protect you from anything they could say."

The brown-haired smile. She felt safe besides him. They stayed there, cuddling a bit and remembering every good thing that happened between them, before getting up. Choso handed her lover one of his shirts, and got dressed next to her. He didn't really feel embarrassed after all that happened during the night.

He slowly opened the door and headed to the kitchen as he noticed his brothers' gazes on them. He let out an annoyed sigh. They weren't Moving, just staring at the couple. "How cute brother, you found a girlfriend !" Yuji exclaimed in an enthusiastic voice. Choso turned away, just for his eyes to catch a glimpse of her beauty again. "Yeah... I think I can't even stay away from her now..." he muttered. "Well, let's eat now !" he continued as he went to bring everyone breakfast, trying to avoid this conversation.

Eso giggled and stepped towards his friend. "Well, I guess I was right when I told you to talk to him..." he whispered. The woman gave her a bright smile. "That's true, thanks ! By the way, I hope it doesn't bother any of you guys..." she answered in a nervous tone. The other raised an eyebrow. "What, having you around all day or knowing you took some private time with our brother ?"

Mizuki blushed, and turned away. Eso bursted out laughing. "Don't worry, it's nothing important for us !" he promised as he brought her to the table.

They ate and talked like they were used to when they were hanging out, and left the bungalow. As they were approaching the swimming pool, the brown-haired pulled her boyfriend's shirt, making him stop. "Love... I don't have anything to wear there..." she reminded him. The man sighed. "That's right, your swimsuit... And I have nothing you can borrow. Let's bring you back so you can take your own things then... Perhaps your family will be relieved to see you too."

She widened her eyes. She completely forgot. They left the others and ran to her bungalow. As soon as she saw her, her mother ran and gave her a warm hug. "Where have you been ?!" she cried. Mizuki felt bad for not telling her. She was expecting to come back sooner. "I'm sorry mom, I just couldn't stay here anymore after what happened, and Choso allowed me to stay with him... He took care of me, really !"

Her aunt rolled her eyes. "We bring her to the beach and the only thing sye can think of is running away with a man who just wants her for the night..." she grumbled. Choso stared at her, his gaze colder than ever. "I don't care if you insult me. Really, it doesn't even bother me, I don't like you either. But talk to my girlfriend like that again, I dare you... Don't even let your filthy daughter annoy her again. Furthermore, I didn't bring her for that reason. I love her. Truly. And I don't see why I couldn't spend time with the one I love."

Aika stepped forwards, trying to speak, but Mizuki's mother gave her a death stare. "Don't even bully my daughter again..." she ordered. "All of that made me think. I believe my Mizuki. She wouldn't have made up lies in such a situation... Don't ever annoy her again. Any of you. Mizu, just stay with your boyfriend... He truly loves you, I can see it in his eyes. Just leave me have a little family explanation here..."

The brown-haired woman gave her mother a wide smile, and a quick hug before running inside to find her clothes. She stepped away with Choso, to meet the others at the pool.

The tired man gave his lover a quick kiss, and smirked. "I'm glad your problems are over..." he whispered. The woman chuckled. "Thanks for helping me my dear..." she uttered back.

They headed to the showers, and quickly threw water at eachother before getting to the pool.

Some people were staring at the woman, since they had heard her argument with her aunt -even though she wasn't the one yelling. But Choso's cold stare made them quickly look away. They got to the pool, and met the rest of the friend group, quickly telling them about their couple, earning sincere congratulations.
