Tickled by the scent of the tide, the excitement naturally increased.

“””Hyahoo!”””

Shuya, Nobukazu, and Ebina, the three idiots, shouted loudly and headed straight for the sea.

“Oi, you guys! We have to check in at the hotel first!”

I said, raising my voice.

“”Alrighttt~~~…””

The three of them stumbled back.

“Matsuo-kun, you look like a teacher~.”

“That’s so true~!”

“So funny~!”

The girls were making fun of me.

“But I guess not. Matsuo-kun is Hiyori-chan’s husband, right~?”

“No, t-that’s …….”

I glanced at Ando-san. She was blushing while looking down.

“….Don’t say it”

I also turned my face down while blushing.

“Oh my God, these two are so in love~!”

“Hey, don’t tease them too much, okay?”

“Ah~, I want to fall in love~ too!”

And the girls were having a good time.

“What’s wrong?”

The three people who came back this way said, 

“Matsuo-kun and Hiyori-chan were being so lovey-dovey right now, you know~”

“No, that’s…”

“Hidetsugu.”

Shuya placed his hand on my shoulder.

“Even now, you can still get a hotel room alone with Ando-chan, you know?

“Y-you idiot! How can I do that!”

“But you know~, You guys live together.”

“Cohabitation is… living together.”

“Hey, Hidetsugu. Your face has been red since a while ago. Ando-chan too.”

Nobukazu giggled while covering his mouth with his hand.

“Shut up, you idiot.”

“Now, you two. Kiss.”

Ebina said again, and everyone laughed,

“Ah, Mou! That’s enough! You’re bothering Ando-san!”

I said, raising my voice.

“… I-it’s not a bother.”

Ando-san spoke up.

“Huh?”

Even thought she looked very embarrassed under everyone’s gaze. She was staring at me intently. I was so surprised.

“……l-let’s go into the hotel.”

“Y-Yes.”

Me and Ando-san nodded at each other. And the others just grinned.

******

With a crunch,I stepped onto the sandy beach.

“”Yo~shi, Yosh~i, I want to see the girls’ swimsuits~♪””

The idiotic duo of Shuya and Nobukazu were at it again.

“You guys, don’t get too wild.”

“Don’t be so hard, Hidetsugu.”

“Or rather, Your abs!”

For some reason, the two a******s got excited and punched me in the stomach.

“Stop, you guys.”

“Hey, you boys~? What are you doing~!”

I thought I heard Ebina’s voice.

“”Woo!””

The guys, including the idiot duo, widened their eyes. The girls in swimsuits arrived. All of them were sparkling and shining.

“”YOSHAAAAAAAAAAA!!”

The shouts of the a******s echoed through the air.

“Oi, you guys. There are other people here besides us, so don’t make too much noise.”

“Hidetsugu, don’t pretend to be a gentleman. You’ve got to be crazy if you don’t get excited when you see a girl in a swimsuit!”

“I do, you idiot.”

I let out a sigh.

“… Ma-Matsuo-san.”

I turned my head at the sound of that voice.

“Ah….”

My voice involuntarily leaked out of my mouth. Ando-san, wearing a swimsuit, approached me. Although I accompanied her on the shopping trip, I was not able to see her in her swimsuit.

[You’ll see what kind of swimsuit it is on the day! I’m sure you will love it!]

said Ebina, and I had no idea what kind of swimsuit Ando-san would be wearing until this very moment today. And now she was in front of me, wearing a light pink bikini.

Adorable.

This was the first word that came to mind. I was also charmed at how she was embarrassed and fidgety.

“… W-what do you think? I don’t have big b*****s, and I don’t have a good figure.”

“T-that’s not true, H-how should I say it….You look really cute.”

“Eh? T-thank you very much…”

Me and Ando-san both blushed and turned our faces away from each other again. Suddenly, I looked at everyone and saw them grinning.

“Yaan~! Hiyo-tan, you’re just as cute as I remembered~!”

Ebina ran over and hugged Ando-san.

“T-thank you, Shoko-chan.”

“Hey, Ebina.”

“Fufu, I know. Please allow me this much skinship.”

Ebina chuckled and pulled away from Ando-san.

“Really..but, well, Thank you for choosing such a cute swimsuit for Ando-san.”

“No problem. Hiyo-tan is cute to begin with, so I had a lot of fun picking out a swimsuit for her. You should thank Natsume-chan as well, okay? If you want, I can tell her in person.”

“Don’t do that. You, she doesn’t like you.”

“Gah!”

Ebina bent over. I quickly looked away as her large b*****s jiggled under gravity.

“Ah, Hidetsugu. Did you glanced at my t**s just now?”

“S-sorry.”

“You’re so good to apologize so honestly.”

“Y-You idiot…”

I suddenly looked at Ando-san. For some reason, she was touching her b*****s with both hands and puffing out her cheeks.

“It’s all right, Hiyo-tan. Hidetsugu doesn’t judge a girl by her b*****s.”

Ebina said, touching Ando-san slender shoulders.

“R-really?”

“Yes, As his friend, I guarantee it.”

Ebina smiled, and Ando-san smiled as if she was a little relieved.

“Hey, you guys! Let’s play beach volleyball!”

“Come on~!”

Shuya and Nobukazu said.

“We’re coming. Let’s go, Ando-san.”

I said smiling.

“Yes.”

She smiled at me, too.
