It was, once again, a hot day in Tokyo, and you were dying. With you being from outside of Japan, this heat and humidity was not something you were used to. You let out a groan as you got up from the couch to get more water, "I swear it's too hot here!" You filled up your glass and took a sip of the water before speaking again, "I don't see how you survive this..."

"Believe me," YOHIO started, "it's tough for me too, and I've been here in Japan for a while now." He leaned back in his seat, setting his soda on the end table next to him. While you both were 'dying' in the summer heat, he wasn't as miserable as you were. He actually found it kind of funny about how you were reacting.

Seeing his small smile off to the side had you turn towards him. Seeing your confused look made him chuckle as he turned to the side to grab his soda. "What's so funny?" You asked him, a look of irritation on your face. He only smiled and shook his head in response, which just made your already poor mood worse.

Sensing that you were getting angry with him, he finally spoke. "It's nothing bad," he started, "It's just... Your reaction to this heat is cute." He smiled at you, letting out another chuckle. You probably reminded him of
how intolerant he was to the weather when he first arrived in Japan.

Whether he was teasing you or trying to make you feel better didn't keep your face from getting hotter than it had been. You always had thrown the word 'cute' at him as a compliment, but him giving it to you was just embarrassing. It was something that he had picked up on at the start of your relationship, so he'd occasionally use the word just for the purpose of flustering you.

"Idiot..." You mumbled to yourself as you sat back down across from him. Taking another sip you turned your attention to the view from the window next to you. The scenery was much different than your previous visit to Japan. The last time you had been here was in the winter time, for a quick Christmas visit, and oh how the weather had been so much cooler. You'd much rather take being cold over the heat you had now.

As you smoothed some of your hair back you returned your attention back to your boyfriend. And of course, he was still smiling at you. While he wasn't saying anything, you knew what he was thinking. You knew that he wanted to continue teasing you about your reaction to the heat, but he was holding himself back.

"Stupid head..." You mumbled to yourself once more, only this time YOHIO had heard you. He shook his head after taking another sip of his drink. You hadn't realized that he had heard you, so gave him another pouty look, "What's so funny this time?"

"Your..." he started, but then trailed off. This caused your expression to get even more grumpy, making him smile more. "Your insults that you come up with are cute." You opened your mouth to growl at him, but couldn't find the right words to say, causing YOHIO to hold in a laugh.

You let out a frustrated sigh as you stood up, "I'm going to the bathroom." After finishing your 'business' that you had came into the bathroom for, looked at your reflection in the mirror. Your face was still flushed. "That guy..." You said to yourself, debating on the idea of splashing cold water in your face to cool yourself down.

After a minute of debating, you chose to go ahead with your idea and cooled off your face. After all, you weren't going to be heading anywhere else today, so you really didn't need the make-up. 'Does he always tease people like this?' You thought to yourself. 'He didn't tease me like this last time I was here, or any other time.'

Looking back at frustrated expression you sighed, "Maybe getting so mad is just egging him on to do this..." Feeling the heat return to your face, and the rest of your body, you decided to take a shower. It'd help you cool off better, both physically and mentally.

You didn't keep track of how long you were in the shower, as you were lost in your thoughts. You knew that YOHIO loved you, and of course you loved him back, but his teasing could really get to you. But, you never said anything about that to him.

Maybe you didn't want to make him mad by 'depriving him of fun' or 'being over-sensitive' from all of his jokes. You knew that he wasn't intending to make you feel bad, and again he wouldn't know that because you'd never say anything about it.

Taking a deep breath you turned off the water and stepped out of the shower. Realizing that you didn't have a change of clothes with you in the bathroom, you wrapped a towel around yourself and quickly moved into the bedroom.

You took a moment to think about what to wear. 'Well, it is starting to get late...' you thought. You moved over to the small dresser to pull out a pajama set. Just as you had begun to slip your towel off, you heard a voice.

"Hey, _____?" You heard YOHIO's voice from behind you. The sound of the door opening caused you to jump. You let out a surprised yelp as you attempted to get a grip on your towel to pull it back up. It didn't take long for YOHIO to realize that he had walked in on you changing, and quickly ran away. You could hear him stumbling through the short hallway as he shouted, "Sorry!"

Minutes of silence passed. Both you and YOHIO were extremely embarrassed about what had just happened. After getting dressed and taking a minute or two to compose yourself, you slowly opened the door and moved down the hall. Through the sightline that you had from entering the living room, you could see YOHIO in the kitchen. He was looking out a window, his body tense and an uneasy look on his face.

"YOHIO?" You called to him as you stepped into the kitchen. He slowly turned his head towards you. For once in a long time, he was the one that was embarrassed. It was almost amusing, as you rarely ever see him like this. His face was as flushed as yours had been earlier.

Your embarrassment slowly began to fade, and small smile began to form on your face. This caused confusion to form on his face, his blush increasing. "What... What's the smile for?" He asked, sounding concerned. He slightly stepped back in order to face you more.

"You know," You started, "It's not really like you to get embarrassed like this." You said, letting out a laugh at the end of your sentence. That last part causing a small glare to form on his face, but he quickly shook it off with a huff and returned his gaze to the window.

You let out another laugh as you move towards him, easing him with a hug. "YOHIO~" You called his name, earning a small noise from him that let you know that you had his attention. "You look really cute right now."
