Everyone laughed and pointed at you as you slowly made your way to Kunia.

"Y/N are you okay?"

"Just a little wet." You tremble wrapping your arms around yourself. "I guess I wasn't paying attention again..."

"Let's go sit and find something to dry you off with!" She placed a hand on your shoulder and gently leads you over to a vacant area of lounge chairs.

"Hmm...no towels..." she mutters, crossing her arms.

"Aw nuts." You sigh, taking a step back. Unfortunately bumping into someone because again, you weren't paying attention.

"Ah! I'm sorry!"

You turn around seeing Chishyia, your heart fluttering instantly. He looked so cute in his white hoodie, especially with his hoodie on.

"A bit cold to go swimming, y/n?" He asks, his lips slowly forming into a smirk. That mocking smirk you loved so much.

You shrug, too embarrassed to tell about your little incident with that couple.

"I-its never t-to c-cold to go swimming!" You say through chattering teeth. You wish you could disappear right now, to Chishyia you must of looked so lame.

He was always so calm and collected, while you were all over the place and loud. It was a miracle you've survived as long as you have in the borderlands.

"Is it now?" He questions, his smirk not leaving.

"I'll leave you two be." Kuina says, giving you a wink before she walks off back into the hotel.

Now you really wanted to disappear. Alone with Chishyia?

"Sorry..." is all you can mutter. Your cheeks heated up, you couldn't look him in the eyes.

You hear the sound of a zipper, causing you to look up at chishyia.

"Why are you apologizing? For being a klutz?" Chishyia grins at you, as he takes off his hoodie now leaving him...completely shirtless.

For being as lean as he is, you noticed some muscle to his chest and arms. He was toned and looked so soft.

"Uh....uh...."

That was all you could say and all you could do was stand there drooling over this man. The two of you have met in a spade game, during that awful game of tag. Neither of you had spoken to each other and you were unaware of Chishyia's eyes on you. He watched your every move during the game and he came back for you when you had tripped over your own foot and fallen. You thought you were a goner, but he had helped you up to your feet and crammed you into the elevator with him before the tagger could spot the two of you.

You had fallen in love with him ever since, and he has with you.

"I have to dress you now too, I see?" Chishyia says, more to himself as he wraps his sweatshirt around you.

You nearly sigh as you were welcomed by a warm hug. It smelled like him. He smelled slightly like lavender and vanilla. Which you weren't sure how, since everyone at the beach had the regular soap and mint scented shampoo at the beach.

"Th-thank you..." you say, bunching up the sweatshirt In your hands as you rub your face against the soft material.

Chishyia stares at you with his usual stoic expression, he was trying to fight back a laugh. You were just too cute. There were times when all he could do was walk away from you whenever you had your moment of clumsy or awkward. He loved that about you. There was never a dull moment. You were special and he wanted to keep you safe always.

"I like you, y/n." He blurted out, surprising you and himself.

You froze, dropping the sweatshirt back to your waist. If your face wasn't red earlier, it definitely was now.

"Is that a joke?" You frown, knowing lots of members at the beach liked to tease you. You may have been clumsy and gullible, but you still knew when to bring your walls up.

"No." He smirks slightly down at you. He didn't know what else to say, he was never good at sharing his emotions and how he felt. All he could do was shove his hands in the pockets of his swimsuit.

"But I'm so...me...and you're so....you!" You sputtered, mentally smacking yourself in the forehead from how stupid your response was.

"And?" He waits patiently for you to continue.

"And...I like you too?" It comes out more like a question.

"Are you sure?"

You can only nod.

This man actually liked you? You!? The two of you were polar opposites. Not that you were stupid but you weren't nearly as intelligent as him. This man cleared several games including diamonds on his own. He was reserved and never shared his feelings with anyone, except you.

"Wait. Are you sure?" You widen your eyes.

"Am I ever not sure?"

He steps closer to you, wanting nothing more than to hold your hand, embrace you, something. He just couldn't find himself to do it. It's not that he was shy, he just wasn't good with affection.

Almost as if reading his mind, you threw your arms around him in a tight hug. You knew if he wouldn't hug, then you sure as hell would.
