Third Person POV
"First is the Lobby, which is honestly the best part of the resort besides the pool and the beach. This is where reception is, and it all looks pretty normal but right around this corner, we have a waiting area that is made to me cozy for a lot of people to hang out. This is a relatively small resort, just enough for 500 guests. That's why my uncle wanted it to look homey. And of course, aesthetically pleasing to ease the guests.", Mizuki said.
The area looks really cozy, it has huge couches, benches and chairs, there's a lot of hammocks. And it really looks like home because of the use of many pillows that look homemade, as well as white sheer curtains. There's an upstairs are, the railing is made of stained wood, and there are more places to relax upstairs.
"Wow, this place looks amazing! It feels like a huge cabin in here!", Ayana said.
"I like the vibes and aesthetic! The interior design is so beautiful!", Haruka added, touching the curtains draping over the sliding door that leads to the garden.
"Well, Aunt Maggy helped.", Mizuki chuckled.
"It looks so relaxing here.", Akaashi said, sitting on the couch.
"We can all hang out in here if we want to, but there's a cozier place that me and Kenta prepared for us.", Mizuki said.
Just then, she realized that Kenta still hasn't showed himself.
"Wait, speaking of Kenta, where is he? He usually greets me first. Did he get a girlfriend again?", she asked Tendou.
"No. His guard is higher now ever since he broke up with the junk.", Tendou answered.
"Then, where is-- GAH!", she yelped.
She was suddenly pulled by her hand then spun around by Kenta. He then wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her closer to him until their bodies are pressed together. He dipped her down so they looked like they were in a dancing position.
"Hello princess~", he greeted, kissing the back of her hand.
Everyone looked at them since they heard Mizuki yelp.
"Uhm, hi!", she greeted back since she was shocked by the sudden force in her body.
Kenta stood her properly, still holding her waist.
"Who is this?", Kuroo asked.
"Oh, this is my cousin, his name is Kenta. He's the son of my uncle Seth.", she introduced.
"Nice to meet you all, Miki's friends!", he waved and smiled at them.
"Why is he so... touchy?", Oikawa asked, looking at Kenta from top to bottom. Judging silently.
"He's... a huge flirt. Anyways, nevermind that.", she answered.
"Princess, you took so long. You know how impatient I get.", Kenta pouted, hugging her from behind.
"Sorry, sorry.", she chuckled.
"I'll have to punish you for this...", he said.
The others jolted at his sudden seductive actions. And the fact that they're cousins make it even weirder.
"Oh come on, we tried to stick to schedule.", she replied.
"Nope. Why don't we... give your friends a show?", he asked.
"A SHOW?!", Kuroo, Oikawa, Bokuto, Yaku, Sugawara, Tanaka, Nishinoya, and Iwaizumi exclaimed.
They were obviously thinking of something... inappropriate.
"Later.", Mizuki answered.
"LATER?!!!", Kuroo, Oikawa, Bokuto, Yaku, Sugawara, Tanaka, Nishinoya, and Iwaizumi exclaimed again.
"No, no, it's not what you think. Kenta, don't mislead them.", Mizuki said, removing Kenta's hold.
"Aww, okay.", Kenta pouted.
"You'll get used to him. He flirts with a lot of people. And not only girls, but also...", Mizuki said. "Boys."
Kenta then spotted Akaashi so he walked towards him in a cool manner, then put his thumb over Akaashi's lips.
I have never seen someone as beautiful and gorgeous as this guy. Kenta thought.
"Hey there handsome. Are you enjoying the resort so far?", he smirked, his face inches away from Akaashi.
Akaashi was frozen, his face redder than Tendou's hair. No guy has ever flirted with him before and he doesn't know how to respond. More so, a beautiful, gorgeous specimen like Kenta.
Bokuto then jolted and pulled Akaashi towards him.
"T-This is my setter, get your own!", Bokuto said.
Bokuto looks like Kenta's type, tall, muscular, energetic, and protective.
"Well, aren't you a beautiful hunk?", Kenta put his hand on Bokuto's pecs.
Bokuto had the same expression as Akaashi earlier. He then turned to Kuroo and hugged him while crying.
"HE'S RUTHLESS!", Bokuto cried.
"It's okay, bro, it's okay, I got you.", Kuroo said. Oikawa pat his back to calm him down.
"Oi, Kenta, stop it...", Mizuki softly said.
"Fine... oh hey, Kei.", Kenta greeted.
"DON'T STEAL MY BOYFRIEND!", Mizuki exclaimed.
"Okay, I'll steal something else...", Kenta whispered. "Hey princess, your first kiss is taken right?", he asked.
"My first thousand kisses were taken by Kei.", she answered.
"Finally!", Kenta said.
"What?", she asked.
"I finally get to do this!", Kenta said.
He pulled Mizuki's waist and pressed his lips on Mizuki's. Everyone froze in place. Mizuki pulled away from him immediately, then also froze in place.
She then melted into his arms as if she fainted. She half fainted. Now she's blabbering nonsense.
"Y-you and... A-Atsumu... are really... best friends.", she mumbled incoherently.
"Of course we are!", Kenta laughed, catching her in his arms.
He then look at the others.
"Oh don't worry, I have that effect on people.", he said.
Earlier, they were all frozen, now they're fiery.
"KENTA, WHAT THE HELL??!!", Yamagata and Semi asked.
Kei was urging to go run and smack him in the face but Akaashi was holding him back.
"WHAT THE HELL, MII-CHAN'S KISSES ARE RESERVED, THEY'RE SPECIAL! HOW DARE YOUUU?", Kuroo raged and Bokuto was holding him back.
"B-bro, calm down!", Bokuto said.
"ARE YOU CRAZY?!", Shirabu and Kawanishi asked.
"Now, I'm annoyed.", Iwaizumi smiled irritatingly.
"I won't hold you back.", Oikawa smiled irritatingly too.
"THIS GUY!!! HOW DARE HE?!!", Tanaka, Nishinoya, and Taketora asked, raging.
"He's... weird.", Daichi, Suga and Asahi just stared, dumbfounded.
"Is he unhinged?", Kenma asked Yaku.
"That's scary...", Akane shivered.
Mizuki gained consciousness as she stands up.
"M-Mizuki-chan, are you okay?", Hinata, Yamaguchi, and Yachi asked.
She then walked towards Kei, still in a daze.
"Make me forget!", she said, gripping his shirt.
"No. I'm not touching those lips.", Kei removed her hand from his shirt.
Mizuki stood up and looked at him. She raised her eyebrow, crossing her arms.
"You have 5 seconds to take that back.", she said. "5...", she started counting.
But Kei's pride is a brick wall. And it's slowly dwindling away with Mizuki's counts.
"4...", she continued.
His pride is strong and solid and high.
"3...", she counted again.
His eyebrow twitched. Oh, he's weakening.
"2...", she pressed her lips together.
He's still not speaking though.
"1...", she finished.
Kei was glaring at her, still not speaking.
"Okay, I appreciate your rather honest response. Please, kindly live with it.", she started.
"Oh no, she's speaking formally, she's mad.", Yamaguchi said to the others quietly.
"Never touch my lips again, and...", she continued.
She took out her phone and started texting a message to Kei. She sent it and Kei's phone dinged.
He took it out and read the message out loud.
"Pardon my English, but please fuck off...", he said.
"Let's continue with the tour so we can eat lunch!", Mizuki said, walking away.
"W-wait, I don't mean it!", Kei ran after her.
"Leave me alone.", she said.
Kei hugged her from behind to stop her.
"Go find another pair of lips to kiss!", she said, struggling to get out of his grasp.
"Okay.", he said, then kissed Mizuki, instantly going for her tongue. "Found it.", he said as he pulls away.
Mizuki pouted and removed his hold on her. She crossed her arms and didn't say anything. Kei groaned and turned to Kenta.
"This is your fault!", he said.
"Okay, I'll take it, sorry princess!", Kenta apologized.
"...apology accepted.", she mumbled.
"If if makes you feel better, I'll lead the tour, okay? Come on guys!", Kenta immediately said before Mizuki can have an outburst.
Kei then carried Mizuki over his shoulder.
"I'm not letting you go until you feel better, baby.", he said.
"Okay...", she just agreed.
"Mizuki, are you okay?", Kenma asked.
"Yeah, just light headed.", she chuckled.
"Mii-chan, I love you. But I hate your cousin.", Kuroo whispered.
"He's not so bad, I promise. He can be annoying but you'll understand once you get to spend time with him. He's a really good person.", she smiled.
"Well, I guess you do love bad boys.", Hinata said.
"She does?", Kuroo asked.
"She attracts bad boys, and blonde boys.", Hinata answered in a 'as a matter of fact' manner.
"Blonde?", Akaashi asked.
"Uh huh. Her ex crush is blonde. Tsukishima is blonde. Kenma is blonde. That one guy from Shiratorizawa is sort of blonde. Then there's the bad boys, Kageyama is a bad boy. Tsukishima is a bad boy. Her ex crush, I think back then is also a bad boy. Then her cousin, as you know is... like that.", Hinata answered.
"Shoyo, your understanding is... just a coincidence.", Mizuki said.
"That's right, Mii-chan likes me, and I'm a good boy!", Kuroo replied.
"Hmm, how do I become a bad boy?", Bokuto asked.
"You can't be a bad boy even if you tried.", Akaashi said.
"Aww man.", Bokuto pouted.
~
"This is the event hall! We hold our formal events here, but just for the meantime, Miki and I converted it into a space for us to hang out.", Kenta said.
"It's like a giant sleepover!", Hinata said.
"A sleepover with 40 people.", Kageyama added.
"That's right. It can also be a party place. There's a stage right there with a few instruments, a microphone, and a full sound system. So be wild. You have freedom here.", Kenta replied.
Haruka walked up on the stage and sat in front of the drum set. She started playing a rock genre, going wild with it.
"Hell yeah! I like it here.", she said, finishing playing.
Mizuki and Goshiki clapped at her small performance.
"We can also watch movies in here, we have a projector.", Kenta said.
"We can have a movie night! Or a small party.", Mizuki added.
"Neat.", Kunimi said, holding the mic stand.
(A/N: KUNIMI HEADCANON. He likes music, he can sing a little, and he likes bands. Namely 1D, 5SOS and Paramore. And he also listens to Avril Lavigne.)
"And if we head to the staircase in here. It doesn't lead to an underground basement. It's actually...", Kenta started.
They followed him and they're all stunned.
"An arcade!", he said.
Kenma gasped and looked around. There were dance machines, air hockey, claw machines, bowling, basketball, gun games, this arcade has it all!
He then approached Mizuki and held her hand.
"I have ascended.", he said.
"I'm glad you liked it.", she smiled.
"We can have fun here later at night, let's go back upstairs so we can go to your rooms and have you settled down.", Kenta said.
They all followed him upstairs and to the lobby. The receptionist that was in the reception handed Kenta 12 keys to 12 different rooms.
"We already divided you into your rooms. You're grouped into 2-4 people, depending on who you are familiar with. The rooms are in the 2nd and 4th floor. The pool, which we'll see tomorrow, is on the 5th floor. That's as high as you are welcome to go. All the other floors are closed.", Kenta said.
"And we have to give you a warning. DO NOT, EVER, go into the 3rd floor. I'm serious. Never, ever go there. We're not able to block it off just yet, but please. Do. Not. Go. There.", Mizuki firmly said.
Tanaka, Nishinoya, and Hinata looked at each other in confusion.
"May we ask why?", Daichi asked.
"I don't think you wanna know. Please just listen to me.", Mizuki answered.
Tanaka and Nishinoya looked at each other in excitement. While Hinata, Yamaguchi, Yachi and Lev shivered in fear.
Maybe someone died there. Maybe someone was possessed. Maybe that floor is haunted by the ghost of the one who took their lives in that floor. Only the brave and foolish ones would go to a haunted part of a hotel.
There, they will find true ghosts.
(A/N: remember when Haikyuu once turned into a horror? I wanna do that too so it'll reaaaally feel like we're in their world😈😈)
"Anyways, let's get you settled into your rooms!", Mizuki changed the subject.
She grabbed the keys for the 2nd floor rooms.
"Daichi-san, Suga-san, and Asahi-san. You'll be in one room. Here's your key.", Mizuki handed it to them.
She continued giving out key rooms.
Tanaka, Nishinoya, and Taketora are in one room.
Ennoshita, Kinoshita, and Narita are in another next to them.
Then Hinata, Kageyama, and Yamaguchi.
Then Yachi and Kiyoko.
Then Iwaizumi and Oikawa.
Then Kunimi and Kindaichi.
"That's all for the 2nd floor. Now for the ones in the 4th floor. Kei and I are staying in one room.", she said, giving the key to Kei.
Haruka and Goshiki are also staying together.
Then Kuroo, Kenma, Bokuto and Akaashi.
Then Yaku and Lev.
Then Alisa, Akane, and Ayana.
The Shiratorizawa boys are already settled in their rooms since yesterday.
Ushijima and Tendou are staying together.
Then Semi and Yamagata.
Then Shirabu, Kawanishi, and Kenta.
"Let's get settled in our rooms first, then let's all meet up at the beach, we'll have our lunch there! You can all wear you swimsuits then.", Mizuki said.
"Alright!", they answered.
~
Mizuki and Tsukishima settled into their rooms, and while Tsukishima just immediately lied down on their shared bed, Mizuki started unpacking all their clothes.
She took Tsukishima's luggage first and put his clothes in the closet, and his toiletries in the bathroom.
Tsukishima watched her organize their things, not speaking at all.
"Baby...", he called.
"Yes?", she peeked out from the bathroom. She then walked towards him. "Do you need anything?", she asked.
"I'm sorry for earlier...", he said.
"It's fine.", she replied, then continued in unpacking their things.
That's so cold... well, it's my fault. He thought.
Tsukishima pouted and sat up, watching her walk around.
"You're like my wife now.", he chuckled.
"Huh? Why?", she asked.
"Because you're busy, taking care of me and my stuff. You're acting like a house wife. It's cute.", he smiled.
She chuckled, blushing lightly.
"My body just wants to keep being busy, I guess. I still have a lot of things to take care of.", she said.
"Don't overwork though. I know you're at least a bit tired from traveling.", he approached her and helped her organize their clothes.
"It's fine. I want this trip to be memorable. So I'll work hard. That's all I want.", she smiled.
Tsukishima looked at her lovingly. He then scooped her up from the floor and took her to the bed. He laid her down and hovered over her.
"Don't forget to give me attention or I'll get grumpy.", he smiled.
"Of course.", she smiled then leaned in for a kiss.
Tsukishima moved her bangs out of her face, then cupped her cheeks as he kissed her back.
"Thought you said you don't wanna touch these lips.", she said when they pulled back.
"Oh no, no one can replace these lips.", Tsukishima pecked her lips again as Mizuki giggles.
"We gotta get ready now, let's go.", she said, standing up.
"...'Kay, fine.", he sighed and helped her organize their clothes.
~°~°~°~°~
"It's beautiful!", Alisa exclaimed, looking at the ocean.
"Oh my gosh, let's take pictures, the view is so nice!", Ayana said, pulling out her phone.
"Wait, girls! Put on sunscreen!", Haruka called.
"Yeah, the sun is pretty intense, you wouldn't want sun burn. Here, I have some SPF.", Kiyoko said.
"Thanks, Shimizu-san!", Yachi replied, putting on sunscreen.
"Right, I almost forgot because of how beautiful the view is.", Alisa chuckled.
"By the way, I like how your swimsuit match your nails. Girl, I see whatchu doing.", Haruka said.
"Pity that's gonna be ruined after we go swimming and stuff.", Akane laughed.
"It's okay! These aren't meant to last long anyways.", Alisa smiled.
As they continue their conversation, the others are also taking in the beautiful view.
"NOYA-SAN, TORA! WE'RE IN PARADISE!", Tanaka shook Nishinoya while pointing at the girls.
"Beautiful girls~ All over the world.", Taketora and Nishinoya sang together.
"We must protect our queens! From any danger possible!", Taketora raised his fist in determination.
"But first, we must do something important.", Nishinoya said.
They all looked at Lev who was looking at them in confusion.
"Kneel down.", Taketora said, and Lev obeyed, kneeling on one knee.
"Please get me a stick.", Nishinoya asked.
Tanaka ran and found him a stick lying around among the bush. He ran back and handed it to Nishinoya.
"Raise your right hand.", Nishinoya said to Lev.
He obeyed, raising his hand.
"Repeat after me.", Nishinoya said. "I, say your name."
"I, say your name.", Lev said.
"No, as in, say your actual name, Lev Haiba.", Nishinoya corrected him.
"Oh, right, right. I, Lev Haiba...", Lev continued.
"...promise to uphold the Pretty Princesses Protection Squad mission...", Nishinoya said.
"...promise to uphold the Pretty...", Lev stopped because he forgot.
"Princesses Protection Squad mission.", Nishinoya sighed.
"...promise to uphold the Pretty Princesses Protection Squad mission...", Lev continued.
"...to protect them from all kinds of danger...", Nishinoya said.
"...to protect them from all kinds of danger...", Lev repeated.
"...and to cooperate with my fellow men...", Nishinoya said.
"...and to cooperate with my fellow men...", Lev copied.
"...in carrying out our duties, AND HAVING A GREAT ASS TIME!", Nishinoya said.
"...in carrying out our duties, and having a great ass time!", Lev cheered.
"Okay, now bow your head.", Nishinoya ordered.
Lev put his hand down and bowed his head.
"I, Nishinoya Yuu, the leader of the P.P.P. Squad, dub thee Lev Haiba as an official member of the squad.", Nishinoya said, putting the end of the stick on Lev's right shoulder, then his left shoulder, as if Lev was a knight. "Stand straight, soldier. Congratulations.", Nishinoya said.
Lev stood up straight and nodded, saluting to Nishinoya. Who's awkwardly half his height...
Tanaka and Taketora clapped and cheered for him.
"So we're protecting them from what danger? I mean, we're the only ones here. It's not like there are other guys that will flirt with them.", Lev asked.
"Obviously you haven't fully adapted in our ways. Let us, your seniors, enlighten you.", Taketora said.
Kuroo and the others were watching them in confusion and utter disbelief that they took it seriously.
"So, is he a soldier or a knight?", Shirabu asked.
"It's a mix. The pledge is like a soldier's. The titling is for a knight.", Akaashi answered.
"Mizuki is friends with some weird people...", Kawanishi said.
"Hey, I'm weird too!", Tendou asked.
"Why is Nishinoya the leader? Commander? King?", Kuroo asked.
"That's because...", Hinata started, and everyone looked at him. "Nishinoya-san is the only one who has been slapped by Shimizu-senpai, and the only one who have buried his face in Mizuki's chest.", he explained.
"So he's basically the Chosen One. The Lucky Perv.", Yamaguchi added.
"Slapped by your manager? Buried his face on Mizuki's chest?", Oikawa asked.
"It was an accident.", Hinata explained.
"And Shimizu got annoyed with him being touchy so she slapped him.", Daichi added.
"And now they're doing weird stuff.", Suga said.
They all looked at the squad. Nishinoya was on Lev's shoulder, shaking slightly for being that high up in the air.
"What a peculiar bunch of individuals...", Ushijima said.
"Ushi-bro! Should we play Volleyball later?", Bokuto asked.
"Sure.", Ushijima nodded.
"Alright!", Bokuto cheered.
Kenta walked in at that moment, topless, of course.
"Hey, has anyone seen Miki?", he asked.
"I just noticed. She's not here.", Shirabu answered.
"She's busy checking on some stuff.", Tsukishima said.
"Oh, she's doing it again.", Tendou sighed.
"Doing what again?", Kuroo asked.
"Running around making sure everything is perfect for this trip. She did this once during our sleepover at their mansion.", Yamagata answered.
"Oh, there she is.", Semi pointed out.
Mizuki was on the 5th floor where the pool was. She looked out for a second and saw the boys looking at her direction.
She then waved her hands cheerfully. Semi smiled and motioned her to come down. She held a thumbs up and then went away.
"I'll handle her. Wakatoshi-kun, Semi-semi, Taichi, Kenjirou, Hayato-kun, let's help her.", Tendou said.
"Sure.", Semi nodded.
"Mii-chan is too nice that I worry sometimes.", Bokuto pouted.
"Yeah, she's too selfless.", Kuroo added.
The mood went sad all of a sudden so Haruka spoke up.
"Hey, if it makes you feel better, Mizuki can be mean too! If she tried.", Haruka said.
"I find that hard to believe.", Oikawa replied.
"Oh she CAN be mean. Trust me.", Tsukishima sighed.
"It only happened once. You see, Tsukishima LOVES strawberry shortcake too much that he's eating it everyday. Mizuki scolded him one time and banned him from eating strawberry shortcake until summer. So one beautiful day, the 1st of April, Mizuki pranked him. She made him eat disgusting strawberry shortcake in disguise. The cake is made of pound cake, he hates those. Then the whipped cream is cream and salt, not cream and sugar. Then the strawberries are soaked in vinegar.", Haruka told them.
They all bursted into laughter at the story.
"T-that... WAS SO MEAN AND FUNNY!", Kuroo cackled like a hyena.
"That was one time, never happening again for sure.", Akaashi chuckled.
"Tsukki ignored her for a few days, but eventually gave in when Mizuki bribed him with strawberry desserts and a deal to live with her for a few weeks.", Yamaguchi added.
"Also, she made it up to him by making him discover a kink.", Haruka said.
"a wHAT?", Sugawara, Yaku, and Akaashi asked.
"A kink. She made a dirty joke. Unexpected, right? That's also something that will only happen once in a lifetime.", Haruka smiled proudly.
"a wHAT?", Daichi, Yamagata, and Semi asked.
"A dirty joke. A few weeks ago, Mizuki greeted him Happy Father's Day.", Haruka chuckled.
"Oh, because he's a daddy? I like how she thinks.", Oikawa nodded in approval.
"Oh my goodness...", Akaashi mumbled in disbelief.
"YOU taught her that! It's your fault, stupid. You said it will add a quote on quote spice in our relationship.", Tsukishima said to Haruka.
"Oh come on, you enjoyed it.", Haruka laughed.
"Ah, I knew she won't be able to come up with that dirty joke by herself.", Akaashi sighed in relief.
"I WANNA HEAR HER SAY DADDY!", Nishinoya, Tanaka, and Taketora exclaimed.
"Ooh, Mizuki-chan has a little devil inside her. I like it!", Alisa giggled.
"We all have a little devil inside us.", Ayana replied.
"I didn't know she can flirt like that. She likes teasing, but flirting? Woah.", Shirabu said.
"Well, she IS a Scorpio, like me. We're experts in flirting.", Kuroo smiled proudly.
"That's a big fat lie, nerd.", Yaku shut him down.
"I'm a Scorpio too. And I don't, more like can't, flirt. So your astrology is also a big fat lie.", Lev added.
"I agree.", Yamaguchi nodded since he's also a Scorpio.
"I believe Leo's and Gemini's are great at flirting. According to studies.", Akaashi said.
(A/N: AKAASHI HEADCANON. He likes studying star signs uwu.)
"Really? Who are Leo's and Gemini's?", Kuroo looked around.
Iwaizumi, Sugawara, Hinata, Haruka and Kindaichi are Gemini's.
Yaku, Ushijima, Narita, and Goshiki are Leo's.
So they raised their hands.
"Wakatoshi-kun?!!!", Tendou jumped in surprise.
Ushijima looked at him then winked in secret.
"Ew! That's gross!", Oikawa shook his head in disgust.
"Mizuki taught me that.", Ushijima said to Tendou.
"Did she say it was to look hot? Because it's definitely working.", Tendou said.
"Well, I guess I can be a little flirty.", Sugawara smiled. "Right, Dai?", he asked Daichi.
"I'm a Capricorn. So I'm oblivious.", Daichi shrugged to avoid Sugawara's question, he's not oblivious but he acts like it sometimes to avoid stuff.
"Am I flirty?", Hinata asked.
"You're obliviously flirty. You're like your captain and vice captain's child.", Kenma answered.
"Yutaro. You flirty?", Kunimi asked.
"You're more flirty than me.", Kindaichi chuckled.
"You know star sign traits are basically bullcrap right? They're not accurate.", Tsukishima asked.
"Don't be a party pooper! It's not accurate but it's fun once and a while.", Haruka said.
"Yeah, it's actually amazing how some traits of the zodiac signs are accurate.", Akaashi said.
"Like how Libra's are supposed to be dependable, good friends, and someone everyone can count on?", Tsukishima asked.
"Yeah, no.", Kenma and Tsukishima both said since they're both Libra's, who are considered the kindest zodiac sign.
"Ha! I'm an exact Libra! They don't call me the Guardian Deity of Karasuno for nothing!", Nishinoya stood proudly.
"Wow, that's actually cool how you're an exact Libra.", Yaku pat Nishinoya's shoulder.
"You can learn a bit about a person by just their zodiac sign, it's fun!", Yachi clapped.
As they continue their chat about zodiac signs, Mizuki finally arrived, now tired from all the running. She looked at the others and saw them chatting happily.
She smiled proudly at them. They look like they're enjoying their time together. They're all getting along so well, she's proud that all her friends come together on this day to hang out together.
Tendou saw her on the corner of his eye, watching them.
"Oh there's Miki.", he quietly said.
Mizuki walked towards them silently.
"Hi Mii-chan!", Bokuto noticed her first.
"Hey guys!", she smiled.
"Mii-chan, are you an exact Scorpio?", Kuroo asked.
"Scorpio? Oh goodness, no. I'm the opposite of Scorpio. I'm not short tempered, I'm not easily jealous, I'm not very seductive, I'm not sexy.", Mizuki answered.
"What do you mean? You're hella hot. Fight me.", Tsukishima butted in.
"My star sign traits don't match me at all but it's fun to learn.", she replied.
"Yeah, you're more like a Libra because you're too kind. Or Taurus because food is your life. Or cancer because you're emotional.", Akaashi said.
"She's a divergent.", Tendou gasped then laughed.
Mizuki chuckled then look a deep breath, sitting down.
"Don't you look exhausted.", Semi stood up and approached her.
"We'll take care of the rest. Give me your to-do list.", Shirabu said.
"My to-do list?", she asked.
"I know you, stupid. Where's your to-do list?", he asked again.
She chuckled and handed him a fully decorated to-do list. It has stickers and pieces of paper and calligraphy for aesthetic.
"Leave it to us. Rest now, okay?", Yamagata pat her head.
"There's only two things left on the list. Thanks. You guys are the best.", she smiled.
The Shiratorizawa boys except Goshiki left and checked everything on Mizuki's to-do list. She sighed and looked around.
"Woah, there's the ocean!", she exclaimed happily, running towards the shore.
"We've been here for an hour and she just now noticed the ocean?", Kuroo asked.
Kenma smacked his arm to shush him.
"She's been too busy taking care of things we need.", Kenma said.
"Hinata! Haruka! Let's go play! The water is so refreshing!", Mizuki giggled, splashing on the water as the waves crash on her feet.
She looked like a kid seeing the beach for the first time. She looks really excited. She's showing her purest, most genuine smile.
The others smile at her excitement, seeing her being so happy is just relieving for them.
Deep down, they know exactly what the others are thinking.
"It's like...", Kuroo started. "When she smiles... the world suddenly becomes better.", he said, staring at Mizuki.
"It's like all our problems go away for a second...", Kenma added, then stood up and walked towards her.
Kenta was watching her proudly. He knows how much she fought for this, for everything she has now. Seeing her overcome every pain, and smile so brightly like this, he can't help but to cry in happiness.
Seijoh, who doesn't know her story, was curious and confused at what the others are feeling. But they still kept quiet and just watched.
"Mizuki... changed a lot.", Kenta said.
The others looked at him when he said that.
"She grew up stronger.", he added, then looked down. "That's a relief..."
"Did... something happen to her before?", Iwaizumi asked.
"A lot. She fought a lot of battles. It's hard to imagine how much she suffered. Even though I love Mii-chan, I'm glad I met her late, seeing her suffer through that amount of pain will kill me too.", Kuroo answered.
"Really?! How intense was it anyway??", Oikawa asked.
Kuroo put his arm on Oikawa's shoulder while Bokuto put his arm on Iwaizumi's shoulder.
With the assistance of Kenta and Tsukishima, they told Oikawa, Iwaizumi, Kunimi, and Kindaichi everything she went through with her life.
And they were dumbfounded. They froze in their place, blankly.
"I-I'll handle her with more care from now on.", Kunimi said, his eyes shaking slightly.
"I understand... it must've been so hard. I get what you're feeling now. Seeing her this happy must've been like an achievement for you guys.", Iwaizumi said.
"It is.", Kuroo and Bokuto nodded.
Meanwhile, Mizuki was playing around with Hinata and Haruka. Kenma approached her with a smile since she looks like she's enjoying herself.
"Hi Kenma!", she greeted, holding his hand.
"Why do you like it here so much? I hate summer, it's so hot. And the ocean is scary.", Kenma asked.
Mizuki giggled and gently pulled him closer. She put her hands over his eyes, closing it.
"It's very relaxing... Listen to the gentle sound of the waves... the smell of the humid wind... the feeling of sand in your toes.", she then removed her hands from him. "Look at the blue color of the sky clashing with the deeper blue color of the ocean. The sun making the water glisten at every movement. Isn't it relaxing?", she asked.
Kenma looked at her who was smiling softly.
"Well, if you put it that way... I guess it is.", he replied with a small smile.
Mizuki then walked a bit deeper into the water, then splashed water on Kenma.
"Hey!", he jumped at the contact of the cold water on his skin as Mizuki laughs.
"You said it was hot! Here's the water to cool you down!", she giggled, splashing him with more water.
"Oi, Mizuki! Change your--", Sugawara, Yaku, Akaashi, and Iwaizumi all shouted at the same time but stopped when they notice each other.
"Oh, sorry. I just wanna take care of her.", Sugawara chuckled shyly.
"I think we all do.", Yaku smiled.
"You called?", Mizuki asked, running towards them.
"We were just about to ask you to change your clothes first before you splash around.", Akaashi said.
"Yeah, your clothes are all wet now.", Iwaizumi added.
"Oh right, thanks for reminding me, moms!", Mizuki chuckled.
"We're just gonna ignore that since you look overjoyed.", Yaku smiled.
"Yeah, look at us, all looking ready for the beach while you're still in your shirt.", Haruka said.
"Aww, girls you all look so pretty!", Mizuki pouted, walking towards them.
"I bet you'll look even prettier, so go ahead and change your clothes now!", Alisa said.
"Okay! I'll see you girls later!", she waved, running inside to change.
Meanwhile... Hinata, Yamaguchi, Kageyama, Goshiki, Kunimi, Kindaichi, Yachi, and Akane are playing in the sand.
They were making sandcastles, of course.
"We should have a sandcastles war later!", Hinata suggested.
"I'm out.", Kunimi instantly said.
"Aww, come on. Oikawa-san would love that!", Hinata huffed.
"And Mizuki did give us all kinds of buckets to build sandcastles with.", Kageyama added.
"And there's a lot of seashells to decorate!", Yachi said, putting down the seashells she and Akane found.
Nishinoya, who was feeling devious, caught a small hermit crab. He tiptoed towards the younger ones and dropped the hermit crab in front of them.
"EEK!", Hinata shrieked and dove right on to Kageyama.
"GAH!", Yachi yelped and ran to Yamaguchi's arms.
"It's just a harmless little hermit crab!", Akane said, picking it up and moving it close to Yachi's face.
"A-Akane-chan!!", Yachi was frazzled, waving her arms out to keep Akane away.
Nishinoya laughed at their reaction but stopped laughing when Akane put the hermit crab on his chest. He shrieked like a little girl and ran away.
The hermit crab fell backwards so it rolled over the right way up and walked away.
"Boke! Get off of me!", Kageyama pushed Hinata off.
"Looks like your libero ain't so tough.", Akane laughed maniacally.
"How fearless...", Yachi pouted, talking about Akane.
After a while, the Shiratorizawa boys came back after their tasks. The hotel employees are currently setting up their outdoor feast. A huge table filled with freshly cooked seafood, a few vegetable dishes, and side dishes. There's also a grill area for grilled meat, barbecue, grilled seafood, and grilled vegetables. And there's also a dessert area for ice cream, shaved ice, fruits, and fruit shakes.
That whole area is just jam-packed with foods.
The others haven't noticed it yet since it was pretty far from where they are.
Mizuki walked past one of the employees and decided to help them along the way. After the manager convinced her that they would take care of it, she returned to her friends.
Some of them are swimming already, some are playing Volleyball with a beach ball, some are just chatting, some are playing in the sand.
She walked towards the others but was immediately greeted by a scream.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAH!", Tanaka, Nishinoya, and Taketora shouted so suddenly.
They were suddenly on the ground, kneeling in front of Mizuki.
"W-what's wrong? Are you okay?", she asked in concern because it was so sudden.
The others looked at them due to the fact that their shout were so loud. It's as if they were being murdered. When they looked, they understood why the simps are flustered.
"They're fine. Ignore them Mizuki-chan, please.", Daichi said, guiding her towards the shade, the area where mostly everyone is resting.
"DAICHI-SAN! YOU'RE SNEAKY! DON'T KEEP HER TO YOURSELF!", Tanaka shouted.
Hinata, Kageyama, Kenma, and Tsukishima saw Mizuki and they blushed so furiously that blood came running down their noses. It's like they were punched in the heart.
"T-TSUKKI??!!", Yamaguchi asked in concern, kneeling to Tsukishima who was lying down on the sand.
"H-Hinata!", Yachi also exclaimed in concern.
"I can't take a picture of her, can't I?", Kenma asked since he always takes picture of Mizuki when she dresses pretty.
"KYAHH!! MIZUKI! YOU FINALLY SHOWED YOUR BODY TO THE WORLD!", Ayana started shaking her vigorously.
"How pathetic. I'VE SEEN HER NAKED MULTIPLE TIMES. HA! BEAT THAT!", Haruka said proudly.
"MII-CHAAAAN!", "MIZUKIII!!", Kuroo, Bokuto, and Oikawa started crying.
Shirabu and Kawanishi turned back, covering their red faces.
"You've seen her in a bikini before!", Semi told them.
"WE NEVER GOT USED TO IT!", Shirabu and Kawanishi answered.
Tendou and Kenta smiled, seeing her look so healthy.
"In a way, I understand why Kenjirou and Taichi reacted like that.", Tendou said.
"Why?", Yamagata asked.
"Last year when we had vacation here, Miki used to be so thin, right?. Of course she had a good figure before, but I always think she's too thin. Her arms and legs are so bony before. Now, she has more meat in her bones. Her arms are thin but they look fuller, her thighs are thicker now. And her skin looks more radiant and lively rather than pale. Not only is she getting stronger, she's also getting healthier.", Tendou explained.
"I can see that too. After all, I used to wipe her wounded arms all the time back then. So it's relieving to see that she's healthy.", Ushijima said.
"Some people say that a girl's weight change can be caused by their boyfriends.", Semi chuckled.
"Yeah, if your girl is not gaining more weight then you ain't a good boy.", Yamagata laughed.
"I guess Glasses-kun is being a good boyfriend.", Tendou smiled.
Meanwhile, Ennoshita was punching away the crazy simps away from Mizuki who's shaking in fear of their reaction.
"Mii-chan, you look great in your swimsuit.", Akaashi complimented her, smiling softly.
"Yes, I think it suits you.", Yaku added.
"It's cute.", Iwaizumi also smiled.
"Y-you think so? Thank you!", Mizuki smiled.
"Hi there, gorgeous.", Kenta put an arm on her waist.
"HANDS OFF!" Kuroo raged but Bokuto and Oikawa held his arms to stop him.
Suddenly, Akane stood very closely to Mizuki. She then held her hand out and poked one of Mizuki's boob.
Everyone froze when she did that. Mizuki blushed furiously and hid her chest.
"I-IT'S REAL!", Akane exclaimed.
"Of course, it's real!", Mizuki replied.
Taketora immediately pulled Akane away.
"W-what do you think you're doing?!", he asked.
"Ah, I feel like a wall.", Akane looked down with dead eyes.
"Akane-chan, you're still young! They'll grow!", Alisa encouraged.
"And so what if you're flat? You're still beautiful! Love your body!", Ayana said.
"Right...", Akane replied, slowly convincing herself.
"Oh Mizuki-chan~ let's go take pictures now!", Alisa pulled her.
"Akane-chan! Kiyoko-san! Hitoka-chan! Come join!", Ayana called.
"Okay!", the three answered.
Mizuki, Haruka, Alisa, Ayana, Akane, Kiyoko, and Yachi all took pictures together. They even offered to take individual pictures of each other to change their profile picture in their social media accounts.
After that, Mizuki approached Tsukishima. Who has a tissue up his nose.
"Babe, are you okay?", she asked.
Tsukishima removed the tissue and looked at her closely from top to bottom.
"I can't believe it's my first time seeing your body closely wHEN WE USED TO BATHE TOGETHER ALL THE TIME.", he said.
"W-well, you don't wear your glasses when we take a bath.", she replied.
"What are you wearing?", he asked.
She's wearing a black two piece that has a string detail at the back of the bra, and a two strings detail barely covering her cleavage. The side of her underwear also has a string detail. It covers more skin than a normal bikini but it's more sexy and flattering that way.
"Why, it's my swimsuit.", Mizuki answered.
"But that's hot.", Tsukishima complained, making Mizuki smile.
"What are you gonna do about it?", she asked.
"I'm suddenly hungry.", he replied.
"Well, don't worry...", she started.
She then faced everyone and shouted.
"Everyone, lunch is ready!"
A/N: I'm going back to school today so wooooh hooray T~T
