Summary: Aah~ the sun, the ocean, the beach, and some half-naked smexy Jrockers-what does these all mean? Why, it’s summer of course!
A/N: I noticed the lack of Jrockers in beach settings (or I’m just that blind at finding them.>_>) this is for kurrren , for motivating me to do this. XD Here ya go sweets, and have fun everyone!
---
“Ugh”, a disgruntled vocalist sat up in his bed as he heard the ringing of his mobile phone. “Who the hell would be calling at this hour?!” Blindly groping around in search for it, he tried to find the switch on his lamp at the same time as well.
Both a success, he rubbed his eyes sleepily as he answered his phone, not bothering at all to take a look as to who the caller was. “”Hello?” he answered in a sleep-laced voice.
“SHOU!” the brunette winced at the awfully energetic, too-loud, impatient voice. “Shou?! Are you awake? Did I wake you? Well, I’m sorry about that!”
Sounds like you aren’t at all. Shou rolled his eyes at the thought.
“No, no, it’s okay”, he let out a sigh, “so, why did you call anyway? And please, don’t ask me about where to find Spiderman masks or Spiderman costumes for Mogu anymore.”
“No, silly! Actually”, Shou did not like the eager tone he had at all, “I had this sudden urge to go to the beach! Like right now! It is summer right? And Manager-san has given us some time off before our tour starts. So instead of lazing around like this, why don’t we go see the ocean?!”
The whole thing left the vocalist’s jaw hanging. Was he serious? Scratch that, if Hiroto was calling him this early for one of his stupid urges, then he must be pretty serious. “Wait, wait-Pon, it’s”, he grabbed his alarm clock, “-frickin’ 2: 26 in the morning! You can’t-“
“But Shou! It’s SU-MM-ER!” he dragged each syllable longer than the other. “Summer is about youth, the beaches, the sun, building sandcastles, and the ocean right?! Don’t tell me you don’t want to go because you’re afraid of getting tanned! That’s why we have sunblocks silly!”
“No Pon, that’s not the problem here, see-“
“Come on! We just like have to go! Plus, I always had the fantasy of having sex at the beach. Who knows we could get away with that for once? Huh? Please, please, please?! I’ll be leaving Mogu with Ruki for a while so that won’t be a problem. I swear if you reject me, I’ll be kidnapping you and forcefully bring you to the beach with me. Scratch that. I’ll kidnap you once I finished counting and I haven’t heard from you. One-“
Blushing at some indecent images filling his head, Shou shook his head to get his thoughts back on track. This was really bad. Hiroto was more serious about this than he originally thought.
“FINE! We’ll go, okay?” Shou gave in, hearing a shout of triumph from the other. “But not now, okay? Going to the beach at two-something-in-the-morning is definitely a bad idea. Tell you what”, he proposed, “I’ll go get Tora and the others and we can all go. How does that sound?”
“I LOVE YOU SHOU! YOU’RE THE BEST!”
There goes my day of Final Fantasy Duo Decim…But whatever makes him happy. The vocalist smiled as he thought. Although, he couldn’t deny that he himself was excited for this impulsive trip.
-------
“And?” a black haired guitarist adjusted his sunglasses impatiently. “What the hell is this? Really, Shou.”
There stood in front of Hiroto’s house, four-and-a-half grown men. Specifically, an irritated Tora, a just-woken-up-from-my-beauty-sleep Saga, an overexcited Nao, and a bouncy Hiroto. Now, how would Shou explain the situation again?
“Eto…” the vocalist began sheepishly, a bit intimidated from the glares he was receiving from the two. “Hiroto told me he wanted to go to the beach.”
“THE BEACH!” Nao and Hiroto both shouted at the same time.
And as soon as Hiroto began to jump up and down (while wearing an adorable donut-shaped, yellow float around his waist), Nao turned to his boyfriend with his infamous puppy-dog look. The look, with big eyes and a sad pout, which everyone knew that he wins over Tora every single time.
“I want to go to the beach, please Tora?” The drummer hugged the other at the waist. “Pretty please? I’ll behave!” He smiled sweetly.
With a sigh, the guitarist took one good look at him.
“Fine”, he sternly said, “But I’ll drive.”
Nao and Hiroto exchanged high fives while Shou let out a sigh of relief. “I ride shotgun!” the drummer squealed as he made a dash for the front seat. “What?! I actually wanted to drive this time, mind you!” Saga exclaimed.
But Tora shook his head. “You drunk drove last time. Hiroto was caught exceeding the speed limit. Nao is a complete disaster behind the wheel. And Shou panics too easily.” The guitarist shuddered at some unwanted images. “Kami save us when I actually allow any of you to drive.”
-------
They arrived at the beach at midmorning. Best part was, since Hiroto somehow magically knew the place so well, he chose the part that was partly remote from the usually crowded beach.
“IT’S THE OCEAN! UWAA~” Nao and Hiroto both squealed in childish excitement as they ran towards the glittering, clear waters. They both removed their shirts in a hurry and dived in wearing their swimming trunks.
Saga, who surprisingly agreed to the trip, hurried to the ocean as well. “FINALLY! THE BEACH!”
“Oi, Oi”, Tora shook his head in embarrassment, “you shouldn’t run like that. Geez, what are you? Kids?”
Picking the shady part of the place, Shou laid down is towel and opened an umbrella to protect him from the sun. “Relax Tora, let them be”, he chuckled at the three idiots splashing each other in the water.
Wearing his sunglasses, he rummaged through his large bag (a complete boy scout of course), and produced a bottle of sunblock lotion. “Hiroto-kun! Come here for a while! You haven’t put on sunblock yet!”
“Nao, you too”, Tora said, getting his own bottle.
Obediently, the pair went to their respective partners. Soon, Shou was putting on the sunblock for Hiroto, and Tora was doing the same for Nao.
Meanwhile, Saga, who was completely forgotten, frowned at the whole scene. Something akin to jealousy and loneliness bubbled inside him. “DAMMIT!” He began yelling. “Can you guys stop acting all lovey-dovey for a second?! I feel so fucking left out in here!”
The rest of the members stared at him in complete astonishment. Nobody knew what to say at that moment. Until, Nao, being the bandleader that he was, went over to the poor man. “Aww…Don’t be like that Sagacchi! We didn’t forget you!” he grinned. “Here, I’ll put lotion for you.”
Smiling at his best friend’s concern, he took a good look at Tora and suddenly grinned evilly. Ooh…It seemed that the Tiger wasn’t too amused at the fact that Nao decided to put sunblock for him and not for Tora. He began to chuckle at the menacing plan forming in his head.
“Nao-chan, you forgot to apply in here”, he began to grope and flirt the other shamelessly.
“Aah!” Nao blushed. “D-d-don’t touch me there Sagacchi!”
Just then, something solid collided with the bassist’s head. “OW! What the fuck-“And when he turned back, he saw that Tora was giving him his infamous death glare. On his foot rested…Shou-kun’s sunblock lotion.
“Touch him like that one more time”, Tora threatened him, “and I’ll bury you in the sand alive.”
-------
With their hands intertwined, the couple decided to go for a walk in the beach. Deep inside, Tora was really happy and content to spend time with his adorkable drummer like this.
“Ne, Shinji-kun”, Nao called out in a gentle voice, “I always wanted to make a sandcastle.”
Typical. Tora grinned at Nao’s utterly adorable childishness. It made his heart melt. And to think that his lover was the oldest one among the five of them. “But I don’t know how to make one, love.”
The shorter pouted. He pulled at the other so he could sit down with him in the sand. “You’ll never know until you actually tried you know”, he snorted. “Make one with me?”
“Oh alright”, Tora finally agreed.
From afar, Shou was watching the two with an odd smile on his face. Getting his digital camera for such a rare, unguarded moment, he decided to capture it and show it to them later. The screaming voices from the ocean pulled back his attention to the other two though.
“Ahahahahahaha!” Saga was laughing as how villains do. He pushed the blonde’s head back into the water as he shielded himself from the little waves that the other was making as he struggled. “This is fun!”
Clearly, Hiroto was calling for help.
Rolling his eyes, Shou stood up to warn the other. “Saga, you annoying bastard you! Stop drowning Pon!”
-------
“Kyaa~!” the blonde guitarist was running for his dear life. He was laughing and paranoid and his heart was beating like crazy though. “SAGA YOU FUCKTARD! STOP COMING AFTER ME!”
But the bassist pretended that he didn’t hear that and kept on chasing the younger. They were both screaming and laughing rambunctiously as they ran from the waters to the sand. At one point, Saga was hot on Hiroto’s heels. And when he was only a few meters away from the younger, he extended his arm and tried to pull his trunks down, earning a yelp from the other.
“PERVERT! PERVERT! HEEEELP! RAPE!” Hiroto laughed as Saga tripped over his own feet. Seeing that opportunity, he hightailed back and tried to pull Saga’s trunks down, only to be pulled up again by the determined bassist.
“HIROTO! COME BACK HERE YOU BASTARD!” Saga laughed as he regained composure and began chasing the blonde again.
But then, Hiroto made the smart move of going to the peaceful couple’s direction, who was building the sandcastle happily as they stole small kisses every now and then.
“Watch it!” Tora growled when the guitarist oh-so-dangerously almost hit the left tower of their castle. Out of how many years of his life, Tora only discovered at that moment how fun it was to build sandcastles with the person you love.
“Sorry!” Hiroto apologized, but then he couldn’t help but let out a snicker when he saw that indeed, Saga was still chasing him.
“HIROTO, WHY YOU-Oof!” the bassist tripped over a stray seashell, and ended up destroying the masterpiece which Tora and Nao built with hard work and love.
Shaking sand off of his hair, Saga grunted at the pain. “Owie, ah sorry about that-“, but he quickly kept his mouth shut when he saw that Tora’s expression made him think that the guitarist wanted to strangle him, and at the same time, Nao’s crying and hiccupping and sobbing and whining about how his precious Gundam’s castle was destroyed filled his ears.
Faster than the speed of light, Saga ran after Hiroto, and at the same time, away from the other two. He ducked his head and increased the speed of his running. “Sorry! It wasn’t my fault! It was Hiroto’s!”
“SAGA! HIROTO! BOTH OF YOU ARE SO DEAD!” Tora snarled as he ran after the two.
-------
“This isn’t fair”, a certain bassist complained, “Hiroto should be on this too.”
Licking his triple scooped chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry ice cream adorably, Nao tilted his head to smirk at the other. “Well, technically”, he paused to lick the melting parts, “but you’re still the one who tripped over and destroyed our sandcastle.”
“That’s childish.”
“Nope. That’s justice.” Hiroto sneered down upon the sight of Saga’s head was the only one left seen, as the rest of his body was completely covered in the scorching sand. “Shou, take a picture.”
Biting his lip to keep himself from bursting out in laughter, the vocalist took a quick snap of the unbelievably funny sight. “It’s for keepsakes, Sagacchi!”
“Asshole”, Saga snorted, “that’s your polite version for ‘blackmail’.”
-------
Finally,dawn came, seeping its red orange light into the darkening sky, as if to let the sun rest too. Tora carried Nao gingerly to the backseat of the car, and Saga, exhausted from all the running and the screaming (and being buried in the sand), figured that it was much better to sit at the back as well.
“It’s fine if I drive this time, right Tora shi?” Hiroto buckled his seatbelt and then started the engine, warming the car up. “You’re downright worn out too.”
Wordlessly, Tora nodded, too drained to talk or to argue at that moment. Instead, he let Nao rest his head against his shoulder. And then he clasped his warm hand around his protectively.
Saga was asleep as soon as his back rested against the comfortable leather cushion of the seat.
“Then, I’ll drop Saga first. After that, it’s Tora and Nao, and then hmm”, Hiroto pondered, “you want some takeout before going home, baby?”
Affectionately, the blonde guitarist raised Shou’s free hand to his lips and kissed it.
Smiling back, the vocalist agreed to get some Chinese takeout before going home. That’s one of the reasons why he loved Hiroto so much. Despite his own exhaustion, he never stopped thinking and worrying about other people’s conditions.
The car began to move. And as they drove back, Shou stared at the sceneries as they passed by in a blur. And then he suddenly mused about how fast time was. He knew that in a few years, they’d seldom be out on trips like this because of their hectic schedules and tours and such. Not only that, they weren’t growing any younger by any day…It was just too…soon.
Feeling rattled by such thoughts, he suddenly pulled out his camera and began to scan at the pictures that were saved. He couldn’t help but smile. Yes…At least I have these…
He heard Saga groan, and so he looked back to see if he was okay. Turned out that he was now sleeping on Nao’s shoulder-to Shou’s delight. Taking a shot of the adorable domino-like-arrangement, he was about to turn away when he saw Tora’s eyes open at the added weight.
Without any hesitation, he jostled Saga’s head, and it hit the car window rather loudly, making the other wince in pain. Ignoring the cruelty of his action, the guitarist let his adorable lover snuggle up more into him.
“Hurts…” Saga rubbed his head unconsciously. And then he leaned his head against the car window, no matter how uncomfortable his sleeping position was, and continued to drift into his interrupted slumber.
Chuckling lowly at the whole scene, he took another picture.
Yes…At least I have these precious memories to treasure forever.
---A/N: Was that okay? :)) I honestly don’t know. Since summer is ending in my country and all, I couldn’t help but write one about it.>_> I had fun writing this. It made me want to see the ocean one more time before school starts. xD
