Miho jolted from his sleep, feeling a stinging sensation from his neck. "Mmm, what, Mii-chan?" A hand patted his head, making the albino blink. It was Jay. "A stop? We can get off for half an hour?" At this, he brightened up. The albino quickly grabbed the blond's hand. "Let's go find the others!"

Because seriously, they were the only ones left on the bus except for the driver. Miho was just about to get up from his seat when Jay pulled him back down. Something cold touched his neck and the albino silently yelped in surprise. Jay held a cold soda can to his neck.

"You already got off and bought that for me?" The blond smiled and nodded, brushing his fingertips with Miho's cheek. "Thanks a lot, Jay!" With a smile, the foreigner dragged the blond with him off the bus, Mii-chan chirped as he followed them from above.

They searched for their group of friends and found them playing at the mini-arcade like thingie (but seriously, I dunno what it's called). When Miho made eye contact with Daniel, he quickly hid behind the blond, who sent him a confused gesture.

Jay was about to inquire what was wrong when he stiffened in surprise. Red dusted the albino's cheeks and the blond has this urge to pinch them as hard as he could. "C—C'mon, they probably waited for us." The shorter boy muttered under his breath. Jay complied even though Miho's flustered expression caught him off guard, still.

"M-Miho!"

Daniel could barely keep eye contact with the shorter boy. The kiss kept replaying in his mind and gosh, was he stupid?! Why did he even do that?! But... But he couldn't help it when Miho appeared so tempting. 

Jay and Miho stopped beside him, the foreigner hiding behind the blond in embarrassment. Daniel clearly saw the redness of Miho's plump- Stop it, you idiot! He inwardly scolded himself. "H-Hi, Daniel." The silent blond gave Daniel a confused expression.

However, all he did was blush and avoided looking at Jay's face. Because in all honesty, he couldn't take the embarrassment... no, he just couldn't look at Miho's face because the urge to kiss him again might take over.

Deep inside, Daniel fought the urge to pull Miho towards him and kiss him all over the face and... and give him those marks he's been tempted to put on the albino. "Is this the punch?" Vasco's voice startled him and what he said next almost made Daniel's heart jump out of his chest.

"Daniel, let's do this."

Sending his best friend a look, Daniel followed after Vasco and stood before the Punch.

The albino simply giggled at everyone's reaction when Vasco destroyed the Hammer's Game and Daniel ripped the punching bag. Fingers stroking his hair caught his attention and glanced up at Jay. "Let's head back? You want to sleep before we reach the retreat center?"

Miho hummed, agreeing with Jay's idea. "Okay!"

(Daniel sulked in his seat when Miho completely forgot about him and got on the bus without making a proper conversation with him.)
