Chapter 31:WHOA!

Kira pov

"Whooooooooooa~!" I exclaimed. Marco put his arm around my waist, "What do ya think, yoi?" He asked. I turned to him, "Its a onsen hotel, of course I'm gonna be happy!" I squealed, "Its been one of my dreams to go to one of these!" He chuckled, and kissed my temple, "Your dream is about to come true then, yoi. Now go grab your stuff, I'm gonna check us in, yoi." He advised. I nod excitedly, "Be there in a sec!" Marco walked in, while I hurriedly opened the trunk of the car, grabbed my stuff, and quickly went after Marco. As I walked inside the hotel, I breathed in the clean air, and I already felt inner peace. I could smell the relaxing bath salts, and I wasn't even inside yet!

The onsen hotel looked like one of those traditional Japanese houses with the rock gardens..but way bigger! Over the side of the hotel, was a long drop down of a cliff. Down there, you could see the nice hot water going through these bamboo pipes, until they eventually lead inside, where the baths were.

'Enough staring! Go inside already!'

I shook my head, and skipped inside. I spotted Marco, who was talking to the manager of the place. The manager was a middle aged woman that was short, and a little it round. She had short brown hair, and round glasses. She had a nice kind smile that made me feel like she was a nice woman. She wore a name tag that read: 'Hiroko'. Marco spots me, and he gestures for me to come his way. I did so. "Is this Kira?" Hiroko asked. Marco nods, "Yes." Hiroko sent me a warm smile my way, "Its so nice to meet you, Kira. Marco here has just finished telling me all about you. I blushed a little bit, "R-Really?" Hiroko nods, "Many good things, so don't you worry! I've known Marco here before my som, Yuuri, was born. Anyway, come on in!"

Marco & I took our shoes off, and we followed Hiroko inside. As we walked in, I noticed that there wasn't a lot of people here today. Then again, people are probably still working after all. Hiroko lead us to a nice wide room. One room was supposedly the tatami room. "Now, when you both want to go to bed, in that wardrobe over there is the futo, n mats, and the blankets used for sleeping. You can move this table here, and put the futon down where it is." Hiroko turned to us, "And of course, lets not forget about the hot spring. I'm pretty sure you both know the rules of a hot spring. Wash yourself before you sit in the bath, and don't wring your modesty towel into the bath, as that'll dirty the water. We'll serve you dinner at 7pm, and then dessert will be served at 7:45pm. At 8:30pm, is when we'll serve you some hot green tea. The bath is," she pointed towards the sliding door, "out that door, in front of the balcony. It's open to you all day & night, so you can use it at anytime! Now without further adieu...enjoy yourselves!"

When Hiroko left, I spun to Marco, a big grin on my face. He chuckled, "Whats up now?" he asked. I grabbed him, and hugged him. "Whoa!" he stumbled a bit. I grin up at him, "I wanna go outside!" I chirped. Marco smiled at me, and kissed my forehead, "Alright, lets go then, yoi."

Marco pov

Kira grabbed me by the hand, and she literally dragged me outside. I actually had to remind her that I needed to lock up just as we were leaving.

'Jeez this woman...she's super strong..she may even be stronger than Itami, and Itami is already insanely strong, yoi.'

"Come on Marco~! I wanna look around~!" she whined cutely. "Ya I'm coming." I called as she ran outside. 

'Its hard to think that this is the same woman who murdered tons of people, her ex included, yoi.'

It was a cool Autumn day today. There was some dead leaves around here & there, and most of the trees were stripped of their previous Spring/Summer cloaks. I spotted Kira near that big hot water pipe. She eagerly watched as the water flowed inside the hotel. She looked over at me, a soft smile on her face, "I kinda wanna look at flowers.." she pouted. "I know just the place, yoi...but you're gonna have to close your eyes, because I want it to be a surprise, yoi." I smirked. Her pout grew, "Awww...do I have to close my eyes?" I winked, "Unless,,,if you don't want to look at some pretty flowers, yoi." I teased. She huffed, her hands on her hips, "I'm gonna close my eyes now.."

Kira closed her eyes. I placed my hand over her eyes, and began to lead her towards the flower field that was nearby. As we were walking, she'd pester me about whether or not if we were there yet or not. Most people would find it annoying, but in all honesty, I thought that it was the most cutest thing ever. What with her tone being kinda childish in the cute way. It soon got to the point where she was randomly creating a 'Are we there yet?' song from the top of her head. "Aaaaare we there yet~??? Nope nope nope! Aaare we there yet~??? Nope nope nope! Are we there yet? Nope nope nope! I am blind, so I dunno where we're going~!" After a few minutes, I couldn't help but stifle a small laugh.

'There isn't even a rhythm why is this enjoyable, yoi?'
