HOPE 12

Free! & Hope

It was a lazy hot day that day, and the girls were out about to go to the beach, Miss Shiro decided to accompany them since she had a free day and she wanted to hang out with the sisters for a change, there they were, getting ready to camp near the beach, Edmichiro and Daisuki made the tent while Akane and Kurumi decide that both swim teams should hang, Samezuka seemed to always be so busy, but thankfully Akane managed to convince Rin somehow, he needed to go out and don't stay stuck alone most of the time. Edmichiro skipped as soon as the Iwatobi swim club members appeared, she jumps on her beloved blonde boyfriend as usual.

Aka: "Oh, you came just in time! We need help with the grill if you don't mind"

Nagi: "Lemme take a look at that!"
Mako: "I'll help" something about Makoto was off, and it seemed like only Haruka noticed this, and as you should know, Makoto can be a terrible liar, so his best friend was aware.

Aka: "Okay! I'll prepare the table, wanna help, Haru?" the quiet boy nods and looks back at the tall brunette walking away to grab the grill and charcoal along with the happy-go-lucky blonde.

Aka: "Haruka?" his eyes widened realizing he was lost in a train of thought and shook his head.

Haru: "Yeah" she held his hand, taking him to their spot to put the table and all the stuff that goes in it. Akane noticed his sudden loss in thought.

Aka: "So Haru, you doing okay?" he answered raising a brow.

Haru: "Yeah" she pouted, crossing her arms, she knows he's lying.

Aka: "Common Haruka, I know something's up"

Haru: "It's nothing bad, just thinking" she nods and they set the table.

Meanwhile; Edmichiro left Daisuki behind and so she made the tent by herself, Edmichiro was talking to Nagisa, Miss Shiro was relaxing under an umbrella almost sleeping. The short-black haired girl sighed still with the tent undone, and still had two more left to put together.

Dai: "Dammit Edmichiro!" she groaned in frustration as the tent fell atop of her, she placed her hands on her forehead. Rin walked by, and took the cover of the tent to reveal her face, pouting in anger, as he expected.

Rin: "Need help?" he offered her a hand and she looked away blushing in embarrassment, she admitted and grabbed his hand and he pulled her up. Rin smiled smugly and she tapped his face.

Dai: "If you're going to help, don't get distracted" she crossed her arms, he held her cheeks as if she was a child.

Rin: "Ah, but were at the beach, we're supposed to have fun"

Dai: "Yeah, yeah... Just help me out here, please?" he grinned cheekily and grabbed the parts of the tent to put them together.

Sosuke and Nitori met up with Kurumi, taking out the stuff to grill for later, Momotaru brought another cooler since there was over fifteen people. Once everyone was done, they can finally do what they really came for. Momotaru grabbed a beach ball he brought and threw it at poor Nitori that landed on the back of his head almost making him fall, he was talking to Edmichiro since they became the best of friends.

Ai: "Momo! What the hell!?" he whimpered holding the back of his head.

Momo: "Common guys! Let's play!" Edmichiro smiled, which was almost creepy and threw it back at Momo and landed directly at his stomach causing him to fall, she giggled and skipped towards the others that stand up, waiting for them. Kurumi grinned, grabbing the ball first and threw it to Akane, she jumped and passed it to Makoto, from him to Nagisa and then to Rin... they kept on for a few and then ran to the water while Miss Shiro played ball with Miss Amakata (neither both were wearing swimsuits XD).
