Chapter 31:

W-well, you wanted a kiss...

Under The Shattered Eclipse


Today's the second day of the summer camp. Tomorrow, they will start packing up and go home. They had to wake up early in the morning because the teachers woke them up. Well, Yuki was still sleepy because of it. She isn't a morning person. She woke up and started walking towards somewhere she didn't know, until she bumped into Hiroshi.

"What are you doing, Yuki?"

"Oh Hiroshi. The teacher woke us up. I am sleepy. Let me sleep in your arms."

"She didn't even hesitate. She actually fell asleep. She was about to fall, but Hiroshi grabbed her and put her in a bench.

"What a problematic person you are. But that side of you is also cute."

After some time, when Yuki wasn't feeling as sleepy, she went to freshen up. But as she woke up early, she had to fight her way through every time she was about to fall asleep. It was difficult for her. After cooking and eating, she was feeling even more sleepy, to the point that she couldn't even keep her eyes open. After the meal, everyone was going and doing their own things, while sleepyhead Yuki was just sitting here and dozing off. Hiroshi decided to sit beside her, hoping that talking with her would make her less sleepy, but it did the opposite effect.

"Hey Yuki. Wanna go somewhere?"

"Oh, it's Hiroshi. Lemme borrow your lap."

Well, she fell asleep again, hugging Hiroshi. Hiroshi was flustered. Everyone was seeing him in this position. In the end, he couldn't handle the embarrassment and carried Yuki to her tent and let her sleep there. Well, now, he had nothing to do. He seems to have been on good terms with the delinquent guy since last night.

Having nothing to do, he went exploring the jungle all by himself. It was a deep forest. He was just looking around, leaving some traces behind and trying to pass his time, when he saw a small stream of river. He was feeling a little artistic then, so he tried to draw that scenery.

That small stream of river, the woods surrounding it, the pebbles the birds nest in one of the trees, the ants building their empire on the ground, he drew all of it. But something was missing, he felt.

Suddenly, a hand reached out to him. He freaked out. But turns out, it was just Yuki. She tried to scare him a bit.

"You startled me."

"I did?"

She noticed the painting he drew. It was beautiful. She was amazed at how good he draws.

"Wow. I didn't know you could draw so good."

"Hmm. But I feel like something's missing."

"You do? I don't think so?"

"Well, something definitely is missing. What's missing is a white haired princess with her beautiful smile."

It took time for her to fully understand what he was saying. But when she did, she was a little embarrassed about it.

"You are teasing me again..."

"Well, you don't mind, do you?"

"Do whatever you want. Now let's go."

She took Hiroshi out of the jungle to the camp site. There, they saw that the boys are having a contest of strength by arm wrestling with each other. When they got there, he was asked,

"Hey Hiroshi, wanna join?"

"I don't know, should I?"

"What, are you chickening out in front of your girlfriend?"

"Bring it on."

The contest results? Well, Hiroshi won by a landslide. Yuki was watching it too. The girls decided to tease her a bit too.

"Seems like you have a very strong boyfriend. Must be fun."

"He has a lot of stamina, hasn't he?"

"Please stop. Why is everyone teasing me today?"

Soon came the time for the test of courage. Well, Yuki and Hiroshi were excited, yes. But they didn't expect them to be the first one in there. Well, everyone will be trying their best to scare those couples out, so they forced them to go first. Well, there is a prize for the winners, and that is, tomorrow, they won't have to pack up the tents for themselves, the losers will do it for them.

The test of courage was set up inside the forest. Yuki and Hiroshi went in, holding their hands. How cute.

As they were walking, Yuki heard a sound. They were given a map for navigation. Yuki was kinda scared. She held his hand tightly.

"Oh? What is this, Yuki? Are you scared of scary stuffs?"

"I do. Thats why I don't watch horror movies."

"Well, its just a sound, so it will be alright. Or is it? Don't tell me that you are gonna jump on me out of fear."

"Hmph. I am not that much of a scaredy cat."

Everyone watching was feeling lonely by seeing how these two love birds interact with each other.

Well, the next thing, she got scared and hugged Hiroshi.

"Now, who was not a scaredy cat, I reckon?"

"You don't wanna be hugged by your cute girlfriend then?"

"I want it, but I want a kiss too."

Well, he said it as a joke to tease her.

Suddenly another noise can be heard, scaring Yuki once again. This time, Yuki tried to run away from the test, but Hiroshi grabbed her hand and stopped her.

"I can't risk you running outside and leaving me here all by myself-"

He picked up Yuki and started running towards the goal. There was no saying that running isn't allowed. So in the end, both of them survived. Hiroshi was exhausted. He wanted some water. He asked Yuki to give him some.

Yuki went and came back with a bottle of water. Then she started drinking it. Well, she might be thirsty too. But then, she kissed him in the lips and gave him the water, mouth to mouth. After doing that, she said,

"W-well, you wanted a kiss and water. So I gave you both."

"T-thanks."

They both went back to the camp, flustered. It was a fun time in the summer camp. They had a lot of memories there. They also took a lot of photos. They decided to put all that to a "Memories Album" of Yuki and Hiroshi, where they put all the pictures of the study tour too.

On the topic of the study tour, they remembered the date they had on the second day of the tour. It was such an interesting experience for both of them that they could never forget it.
