"So, you spent about, I don't know. A couple of months away from the club just to be with Houkou??" Tora asked.
"Well, yeah. He damaged his eye badly, so I was there for him. Like I was there for you years ago."
"You're too kind, you know Nekomata."
I knew this was true. Even though the thoughts I usually had were complete evil, I knew how to control myself by this age. I can't handle it when I'm angry, but this is a vacation. I can't get angry.
"So...I can join you in your afternoon activities?" Tora asked, making a puppy dog face.
Gawd, that gets me every time. "S-Sure, as long as you only drink inside our room, and not get thrown off the cruise..."
"Of course Neka! Let me get my bikini on!" She grinned. She set her sake under the bed carefully before digging through her suitcase.
My swimsuit was found easily in the duffel bag. It was two piece and black with purple roses on it. I quickly changed, and turned around to see that Tora was already in her's too.
"Like it?" she asked playfully. Let's just say the bikini seemed a little too small on her.
"Uh, yeah. Let's get going to the pool so we can swim with Houkou." I replied.
But then I remembered, Tora was also Francis' friend, and even traveled with him and dad. What if Houkou thinks of Tora like he thinks of Francis?
I gulped and headed out the door. Hopefully, Houkou will enjoy this trip too.
