Keitan shook his head.

"No way."

"There's a chance, y'know, Shairu-kun," Chika suddenly said, appearing out of nowhere. This caused Keitan to yelp and nearly made him fall from the ship. He was saved by Chika.

"Gee, Shairu-kun. If you wanted to have another swim, try that at another time," Chika joked. Keitan cringed, hearing her joke.

"Anyway, there's always hope that she likes you, Shairu-kun," Chika continued.

"I dunno. She doesn't seem to like me."

"That's not true! She kissed you on the cheek. Twice! In one day! No one does that unless they're couples."

". . . . I'm still not sure."

"Are you kiddi-urgh!!"

Chika heaved a frustrated sigh.

"You're hopeless in relationships, Shairu-kun."

"What can I say? I'm asexual."

"Liar. No you're not."

"Damn it. Was that really easy to see through?"

"Yes."

"Oh. . ."

"Anyway Shairu-kun. You should go and have a talk with You-chan. Maybe she'll understand."

"Yeah. . . I guess I should."

Keitan went to his and You's room so he can talk with You, heart to heart.

. . . . .

Upon arrival, he walked in on You changing her clothes.

"HOLY SH-"

Keitan smashed the door closed.

"-ITE!!!"

Everyone (but You) peeked their heads out of the door.

"What's the matter?" Kanan asked.

"Someone please give me a hot poker. I wanna burn my eyes so bad."

"Did something happen?" Riko asked.

"Yes. Something did happen," Keitan replied.

"You accidentally walked into You-chan while she was wearing her clothes, correct?" Mari deduced.

"Yes," Keitan replied.

"You did?" You's voice through the door made Keitan's spine tingling.

"Yeah. Sorry, Watanabe-san."

". . . . . ."

You opened the door so Keitan could go in. He looked at the other girls, and they gestured him to go. Keitan gulped and walked into the room.

"Hey, Watanabe-san, I'm very sorry for walking in like that."

"It's okay. That was an accident, right?"

You was wearing blue pyjamas with a captain's cap with the same colour. Keitan smiled.

"Yeah."

"Oh yeah. I heard you made another cover song. Can I hear it?"

"Where'd you hear that from?"

"Chika-chan."

". . . I knew I should've never done cover songs before."

You giggled at this.

"Well, can I listen to it?"

"Okay then. . ."

Keitan took his MP3 player out of his clothes bag that was placed in the room and began playing the song, named Okinotayuu.

Song is in media.

Shikakui mado no soto aki fukashi
Kotoshi saisho no shimo ga furu
Chikutaku narihibiku heya no naka
Hibi wo hitamuki ni ikitemasu

Sakamichi, takai sora semishigure
Kakedasu watashitachi ga ita

Nami no oto ni yume wo no sete
Tohoi sekai no tabi ni deyou
Ikutsu mono deai to wakare michi
Tsuzuku monogatari

Yubiori kazoeta nagori no sora
Aokusunda bitama no you ni
Chiisana mayoimoto kashite yuku
Sonna hareta omoide deshita

Akatsuki, ake no sora ni mikazuki
Hakidasu ikishiroku yume no you
Itsudemo soba ni kibou wo da ite
Kakedasu watashitachi ga ita

Nami no oto ni yume wo no sete
Tohoi sekai no tabi ni deyou
Ikutsu mono deai to wakare michi
Tsuzuku monogatari

Tachidomaru hi wo norikoete
Mou ichido kaze wo tsukamou
Ikutsu mono omoide wo mune ni yose
Ayumu monogatari

You clapped at Keitan.

"Your voice sounded very nice."

"Thanks. But your voice is unparalleled with mine."

"Don't say that."

"Do you expect me to lie?"

"Well, no, but. . ."

"Yeah, I'm for real, Watanabe-san."

Keitan went and pinched You's cheek.

"Oi! What was that for?!"

"For kissing me on the cheek. Twice!"

"Is something wrong with that?!"

"Yes!!"

"You two are like arguing couples!!" The rest of Aquors chimed in.

"SHUT UP!!!"
