“Cheer up Hachi,” Maki said happily, “We’re going to Sypan! Ahh the beaches and the sea breeze! I can’t wait to get there!”
“I can’t believe the snake would willingly go near water,” Shane said reading an in-flight book casually.
“I tend to try and avoid it,” I answered sipping some tea.
“I still can’t believe that Suki is dating Isonade,” Shane said almost angrily.
“I still can’t believe you didn’t kill Iso-kun,” I answered.
“I still can’t believe Hachi is gay,” Maki retorted.
Tea shot out my nose and into the back of another seat. We were in first class, but it still managed to get the seat in front of me wet. The person sitting in the seat turned around and was about to yell at me when I gave him an evil eye. He sat back down and remained silent for the rest of the flight.
“For the last time!” I yelled, “I am not gay!”
Several of the passengers on the flight with us looked up interested. I gave them my evil eye and they all went back to what they were originally doing. I continued my rant.
“If I was a gay I would not be Isonade’s lover because he is sick and likes sake. And I am not gay! I’ve dated girls before! I just never found someone that I liked! And I hate drinkers! I can barely stand Shukaku’s drinking! Why can’t a guy just be normal?? Is that too hard to ask?? I mean seriously! If I had known that I was going to have to deal with Isonade again I would probably decided to die and get it over with! And Isonade is not a gay either! He goes after women! Everyone in the Biju Club is completely straight!”
“Ok then why are you Iso-kun’s lover?” Maki asked.
“I am not! Did I not just say that??? Suki is dating him!” I yelled.
“Well then Isonade is a two timing bi,” Maki answered simply, “With the world they way it is today I would expect there are people out there now.”
This time a sleeping Kai heard and burst into laughter. He fell out of his seat and was rolling in the aisle laughing the entire way. Kai hit a bag on the floor and several people were yelling for him to get out from under the seats.
“If he is Isonade’s lover then the world is ending,” Kai laughed, “Naw Maki, Hachi really is straight.”
Maki didn’t look convinced, and Shane merely went back to reading. I sighed and asked for more tea. I put in some ear buds and listened to some music while the plane continued on its journey to Sypan. Once in Sypan everything seemed to fall into place.
I relaxed on the beach far away from the water. Maki chatted on and on with her family. Shane decided that he would show Kai how to surf. That was very interesting. It seemed Shane had been a surfing champ a long time ago. Kai learned fast as he always did and soon surpassed Shane’s previous expectations. Now if only he would do that with his studies of jutsus…..
Suddenly a volley ball came crashing from the sky and poned me in the head. I felt like an ostrige.....
