"Shall we go get some souvenirs?" Yuki quietly  asked you, leaning slightly closer towards you. He pointed to the shop that was adjacent to the both of you. It was officially the last day of the trip, and all you had left to do is but souvenirs before it was time to leave. "Yessir!" You responded, allowing Yuki to lead you towards the store.

The store itself was rather large and brightly colored, with an abundance of red and orangeS There was a wall full of jewelry, keychains and small trinket like things. There was a section for tshirts, hoodies and sweaters. Another section for notebooks, diaries and flower/leaf pressed bookmarks, and finally a section for Kyoto specific food.

You walked around the shop, glancing at trinkets and little things your family would like. Yuki followed you around once again, his eyes searching for his own souvenirs. "Find anything you like?" Yuki asked, as you stopped in front of the food section, placing a couple boxes of sweets into your basket. You were determined to bring some back for the rest of the zodiac memebers, along with your parents.

"Mm~ well i'm thinking sweets for Momiji, and the rest. And mom and dad. But I might get a trinket for Haru." You told him, glancing at the trinkets and wondering which would be a good enough souvenir for Haru. Your eyes landed on a rather small yet kind of adorable chicken chain. It reminded you of Haru, for whatever reason. You stifled a laugh, grabbing it.

"Do you think Haru would like this?" You asked Yuki, who was holding up a box full of sweets. He took a moment to properly look at the chicken, a chuckle escaping his lips. "He would love it." Yuki responded, approaching the trinket section. "The koi fish one is rather cute, as well." He added, crouching down to take a good look at the abundant amount of koi fish keychain, each were in different positions, colors and even patters.

"They are cute, aren't they?" You resold, recalling your moment with Yuki on the bridge while the two of you were looking at Koi fish. "Heya, yun-yun!" A familiar voice called from ahead, as you both switched your attention from the trinkets to Kakeru who was waiting in line to pay for his own souvenirs.

"Didja wake up on time today?" Kakeru asked, as Yuki ignored him and instead made his way to the end of the line with a basket full of sweets ready to be payed for. "Hey, yun-yun! Leader!" Kakeru yelled once again, not seeing the frustration on Yuki's face. You stared for a moment longer, glancing at the koi fish, and picking the two you liked most before joining Yuki at the very end of the line.

"All done?" Yuki asked you, a small smile on his face as the obnoxious yelling from his friend only grew louder. "Yes, I did. Did you?" You asked, as Kakeru's yelling came to a halt when he had to pay for his items. "I did." Yuki responded, as your turn to pay soon came up. "Don't ignore me when i'm trying to talk to you, Yun-yun!" Kakeru yelled, finally approaching the two of you, as you paying.

"Hey there, (Name)-chan!" He greeted you brightly, as you returned his smile, "Hi, Kakeru-kun!" You responded, glancing at Yuki he quickly finished paying his part too. "Yun-yun keeps ignoring me." He complained, a small pout on his lips as the three of you exited the store. "You're way too psyched." Yuki responded, with a small sigh, finally talking to Kakeru.

"That's a lot of souvenirs you got there." You spoke, pointing out the abundant of bags in his hand. "What are you doing with all that?" Yuki curiously asked, as the three of you began to walk. "I'm passing them out to people at my part time job and neighborhood, of course! I even took requests!" Kakeru brightly responded, his smile being rather contagious as you smiled too. "Woah."

"Anyway, I've got some extra time, wanna take a stroll?" Kakeru asked, directing his question to the both of you. "Huh? Oh, sure." Yuki answered for you both, allowing Kakeru to lead you to the riverbed. The blue water flowed slowly beneath the bridge yet clearly reflected the colorful trees surrounding the river.

"So? How long have you been dating?" Kakeru curiously asked, staring at the two of you with a mischievous smile on his face. "We're not dating." Yuki quietly told him, not wanting to rumors about the two of you to spread. The both of you had briefly mentioned this before, but you had decided to keep whatever was going on between you a secret, atleast until things with Akito had calmed down. "Aw, jeez."

"What about you, Kakeru-kun? Got anyone special?" You asked, glancing at Kakeru who turned his attention back to the river. "Yes, I do~!  She's the cutest thing in the world. And I love her veryyyy much!" Kakeru brightly said, rambling on and on about his beloved girlfriend. "Aww! That's really cute." You responded, smiling to yourself at the way he talked about her.

You glanced at Yuki, who bumped his shoulders with you. You laughed to yourself, shooting him a questioning look. "What are you smiling about?" Yuki whispered, leaning closer towards you as Kakeru continued to ramble on and one in his corner. "Nothing, it's just cute how he's such a simp for his girlfriend." You responded, pointing at Kakeru. "Oh? And what if I told you I'm a total simp for you."

The words caught you off guard, he had spoken so casually yet easily had your heart fluttering for him, "Speaking of simps, look what I bought us." You said, pulling out the two koi keychains and placing them on to the palm of your hand. "Pick the one you like best." You told him, Yuki's eyes softened lightly, and a shy yet sweet smile making its way on to his face as he picked the one he liked.

"You know... if i'm a simp for you, what does that make you who bought us matching keychains?" Yuki asked, an unusual teasing smile on his face as you froze, feeling the heat suddenly rush to your cheeks at his sudden bold question. "Yun-yun, are you even listening!" Kakeru yelled, as Yuki turned his attention back to Kakeru, right after he reached over to ruffle your hair with a chuckle escaping his lips. "Simp."
