(DISCONTINUED) Senran Kagura - Reform

Beach Time! Ch. 1/4: The Journey

-4:37 AM-

Y/N groaned as he was shook awake, and looked up to see Yagyuu stooping over him. "Come on. Get your stuff and lets go." She murmured, straightening her back. "Right... just give me a minute." Y/N said drowsily. He sat up from his bed, and slid his legs off the side. Standing up, his blanket fell to the ground, revealing him to be wearing nothing but his underwear. Yagyuu turned bright red, but Y/N paid her no mind, and walked slowly to his dresser. "Y-Yeah... hurry though, the others are getting antsy." Yagyuu told him as she left the room.

Once the door was closed, Yagyuu released a breath she didn't know she was holding. "I-I guess that's what Katsuragi meant when she said boys were "energetic" in the morning..." She whispered, picturing Y/N in her mind again. She slapped her self on both cheeks, regaining her composure. She walked back to the others, who had been awake for the past hour. "Is he ready?" Katsuragi asked, tapping her foot impatiently. "He already has his stuff packed, he's just cleaning himself up." Yagyuu told her, getting a sigh of relief. "Phew... I want to get  there ASAP." She said, then Asuka noticed something. "Your cheeks are red... are you okay?" She asked, putting a hand on Yagyuu's forehead. "Yeah, I'm fine." Yagyuu replied, smiling in appreciation.

The girls turned their heads to the sound of approaching footsteps, and stood from their seats. Y/N walked in a few seconds later, wearing his F/C flannel pajama pants, and an open F/C jacket with a black muscle shirt on underneath. In his hand was a F/C backpack, and in the other was a six pack of  shot sized bottles. "You guys ready?" He asked, his voice still gruff. "Yes! Let's go!" Hibari chirped, picking up her bag.

"Wait... did you guys already decide on who has shotgun?" Y/N asked, getting collective sighs in response. "I believe I won it fair and square." Ikaruga said, eliciting an eye roll from Katsuragi. "All you did was throw scissors!" She complained. "The blade can solve most problems, Katsuragi-San." Her voice was normal, but she had the slightest smirk on her face. "Alright, whatever. Come on, before we waste too much time." Y/N interrupted, already opening the door. The girls rushed after him, and they piled into the mini van provided to them by Hanzo.

-5:13 AM-

Y/N yawned slightly, and came to a stop when the light turned red in the middle of a mildly busy intersection. Smacking his lips, he reached over to the glove box, getting Ikaruga's attention. "Do you need something from there?" She asked, opening it. "Yeah, hand me one those bottles." He requested, getting one a few seconds later. "Thanks." He said, twisting the cap off, and downing the entire thing in one gulp. "What was that?" Ikaruga asked. "I've got a weird medical condition called "Cannot function without coffee"." Y/N replied, resting his chin on his palm. There was a snicker in the backseat, and Ikaruga looked in the rearview mirror, seeing Asuka trying not to laugh out loud. Ikaruga sighed, but smiled. "Of course, how could've I forgotten?" She replied, then went back to staring out the window.

-7:49 AM-

Quite some time has passed, and the group was nearing the public garage, where they would leave the van while they were away. Everyone but Y/N had fallen back asleep at this point, so Y/N put his earphones in, and listened to his music.

Pulling up to the car in front of him to wait in traffic, he stared blankly in front of him, and began thinking of what had happened in the past three months. He met the girls that fateful day, and though he found it hard to admit, he had grown somewhat close to them. Of course, he still had the boundaries he put up way back when, but now... he's starting to question them. Seeing that the cars around him were starting to move, Y/N drove a little longer, eventually pulling into the garage.
