"Huh?" Tomura asked, a hint of doubt in his voice.

"You heard me, we're going to the beach today." I responded, my head resting all its weight atop my hand.

"Listen up. There are things I need to do." he said, tensing his shoulders and fixing his cat-like posture.

"Like what?" I complained, rolling my eyes after hearing him start up on his villain talk. Tomura acted on impulse, not ever ready to give up. He never took the time to plan out his attacks, which is why the U.S.J attack resulted in such a failure.

"Like finding new ways to destroy All Might, destroy this hero society." I had to hold in a gag after hearing his words, he sounded so immature and childish.

"Can't you get someone else to do your dirty work?" I groaned, before getting up and tossing my glass mug into the metal sink.

Tomura turned around, nervous about my angered exterior. "Uh- well.. The league is kind of small right now." he nearly stuttered.

"Please, Tomura." I cooed, turning around and locking eyes.

The thought of him leaving scared me, as I would be incredibly bored. I didn't have my old computer setup, and it's not like I can have it delivered. The only reason why I agreed to leave on this pathetic exchange was so I could meet him, and here he is, ready to disappear out the door.

My soft cheeks were swelled and dull, proving to him that I had gone to bed late the night prior. "Just one more day. Then, you can leave and do whatever you want." I begged.

Tomura's nose was pointy, his long bangs covering most of his face, as he turned his head upwards. He sat with his legs spread slightly, his gloved fingers connecting with each other. "Damnn." he grumbled.

"Fine." he hesitantly agreed, before allowing the sleeves of his dark hoodie to glide down his scrawny arms.

His collarbones were bulged out of his skin, his translucent undershirt now being revealed. It was a simple, white tank-top, with minor spaghetti stains. I was happy to hear his answer, now parading over to the bed.

I picked up Almond, who wasn't difficult to carry at all. He rubbed his wet nose against mine, rapidly running his tongue over my cold cheeks. "Hi, baby!" I giggled, before setting him down onto the carpet.

"He needs a walk, so we'll just take him to the beach with us." I said to Tomura, who was peering back at us with a curious face.

Then, Tomura brought up something that I had already come up with a solution for. "What about swimsuits?" he asked.

"I mean, they probably sell a bunch near the beach. We're fine!" I laughed, while setting aside a leash for Almond.

Tomura's jacket wasn't completely off his body, and was instead left hanging down from the joint in his arm. His shoulders were exposed, but he still refused to take those silly rubber gloves off. I grabbed a few things, like my bag, but didn't change into another set of clothes.

It wouldn't matter, anyways. Especially if we're changing into swimsuits, there's no point in dressing up. I clung tightly onto the handle of Almond's leash, the young pup going wild and hopping at least two feet into the air.

Exiting the room, I made sure to lock it behind us. I walked down the corridor, Tomura trailing behind me and eyeing the floor. "Agh, my skin feels so gross.." he complained, trying his best to wipe off the skincare products I had just applied onto his face.

Almond didn't know whether to run back towards Tomura or stay with me, but it made no difference, as the leash kept him close. "That's just because you aren't used to it." I said, my focus staying on the obstacles in front of me.

We made our way to the elevator shaft, which we easily descended from. It was hard to find a hotel that allowed pets, but luckily my agency managed to find one suitable for me. The lobby was packed this early morning, tourists and locals lining up to reserve and buy rooms.

Tomura walked closer to me as we made our way out of the hotel, the bright daytime sun shining onto our foreheads. Kamino looked so different in the day, the streets packed with busy people heading to their jobs. Fresh scents of street-food lingered on top of my nose, making me smile.

With racing cars passing by, even I noticed a few patrolling heroes. Tomura's complains were muffled by the bustling noises arising from the city, so I couldn't tell what he had said. The walk was only a few minutes, but Almond was enjoying every second of it.

The white sand of the popular beach came into view, the skyscrapers and tall buildings leaving the corners of my eye. Like I had suspected, there was a small gift shop greeting people before their feet even touched the soft sand.

I head into the store, Tomura restlessly following behind me. His back was slouched and hung over, his view trying not to peek up. "Look, over there!" I exclaimed, happy to see there were in fact a few pairs of swimsuits.

My feet raced over, a grin forming across my cheeks as I checked the sizes on the bikinis. They seemed to have every color, and even though it wasn't a specialized boutique, the swimsuits were still well-made and high in quality.

There was a bikini in (Y/F/C), which I instantly wanted to try on. "Hold him, kay?" I requested of Tomura, before putting the handle of Almond's leash into his hands.

Dashing into the small changing room, I quickly slid the frilled two-piece over my legs. There were strings attached to the top, which I wasted time on while trying to tie it into a ribbon. The bottoms fit nicely, gripping onto the curves of my body with ease.

I made my way out of the small changing room, just to be met with Tomura's restless stance. "Hey, could you tie this for me?" I asked, picking up my thick hair with my hand, and exposing my back towards Tomura.

Taking the handle of Almond's leash from his hand, I allowed Tomura to tie the two strings into a ribbon. Soon after, even he found a pair of trunks he was comfortable with wearing. The beach was something way out of his comfort zone, but for me, he was willing.

After paying for the convenient swimsuits, our bodies were finally able to bask in the hot sun which gleamed against the white sand of the beach. "Alright, then!" I exclaimed.

"You ready?" I asked Tomura, Almond yapping loudly and excitedly digging into the soft sand.

"Yeah, ready." Tomura responded, exposing his stained teeth in a wide smile.
