My Secret Hero (Saiki x Mera)

PSIched For a Beach Day

The Next Day

"Thanks a lot Nendou. You snored all night long; it kept me up," Kaidou exclaimed.

"Well I couldn't get any sleep either, you kept mumbling through your sleep; you know how annoying that was," Nendou shouted.

Saiki sighed, "Well I had to deal with both of you last night. So I guess I'm the real loser."

The boys headed to the beach in their swim gear; they sat by the girls; mainly thanks to Kaidou and Nendou being under Teruhashi's spell.

"Glad you guys could make it, how do I look," Teruhashi asked.

Nendou and Kaidou blushed, "W-Wow Teruhashi, you look great!" Teruhashi smiled at the boys and then immediately glared at Saiki.

"How could he not notice me?! I'm gorgeous! I'll get him to notice me; one way or another!" Teruhashi was livid at this point.

"I can't even get any of the guys to notice me; not fair," Chiyo thought pouting.

Mera smiled at Kaidou and Nendou; when she turned to Saiki her smile grew even bigger. To even his own surprise, Saiki smiled back at her; unfortunately, everyone else noticed.

"Huh? What are you guys smiling about? Come to think of it, Saiki never smiles," Kaidou said.

Nendou laughed, "Ha! My pal has a funny smile; you'd think you two were married."

Mera giggled, "Nah, Saiki and I just had a fun talk last night," she said winking.

"Geez, don't make it sound so vague," Saiki nodded.

Teruhashi tried to hide her cringe, "O-Oh that's g-great to hear." Then she began to think, "Is it possible that she could like-NO! That's impossible there's no way they could've confessed last night."

"Got that right," Saiki rolled his eyes.

Kaidou had already begun making a sandcastle, "Anyways, Saiki, we should make a fortress to fight off Dark Reunion's forces."

Saiki sighed, "Ugh, that sounds like a pain."

Yumehara smiled, "Yeah, sandcastles sound like fun."

"Yeah, let's each build part of it! We can make it really big; bigger than the whole beach," Nendou said excitedly.

Saiki stood up, "Really doesn't seem to be in my element. I think I'll pass." He began to walk off before the gang stopped him.

"You're not staying Saiki?" Yumehara asked. Saiki shook his head. Everybody groaned and tried to convince Saiki to stay.

"Geez, I didn't think they'd care so much; even so I-" Saiki was interrupted by Mera grabbing his wrist. Saiki turned to see Mera with sparkles in her eyes.

"Saiki, it just wouldn't be the same without you; won't be nearly as fun," she said. Saiki paused for a moment while looking at the girl gripping his wrist.

Saiki gave a small sigh and nodded, "Fine, you've talked me into it."

Everyone cheered, "Woo hoo! Let's do it!"

Saiki sighed, "Besides just interacting with them, there are two reasons that I want to avoid doing this: Yumehara and Teruhashi."

"I can show off to Saiki my sand crafting skills," both girls thought.

"That's not happening," Saiki groaned.

Yumehara immediately began fixing the sand on the beach into something huge; Kaidou and Nendou immediately followed suit.
