Too Much!
"It's summer time!~"
Everybody cheers and some even have tears in their eyes. Finally after the hellish training camp, they have time to relax. Where? At the beach!
"I'm still surprised Rosehearts-senpai actually set this one up." Epel whispers to Deuce. "Ah, I heard that he asked Yuu for help." The spade suite replies. Ace chuckles behind him. "It's really admiring to see Dorm Leader try to change his ways you know." They all silently chuckle at that.
" Ahem." The small chatters slightly calmed down and Riddle begins to speak. " I know you are all excited but before that we need to go over the rules."
The gang sweat-dropped at that. "I guess some habit sticks huh." Yuu muses, Jack and Sebek nodding in agreement.
After the lecture, they are given permission to go around and do whatever they want. " Let's go swimming!" Ace chimes as they seperate from the others. "Whatcha think?"
" I guess we should, especially now that it's not that hot." Jack says, "It looks that Yuu is gonna melt anytime soon though so it's better to get cool in the water." They all turn to the prefect and yes, it looks like they're gonna turn into goo from the heat.
" Then let's change and meet up here in twenty minutes." Sebek suggests and everybody agrees.
~~~
"Yuu! Over here!"
Deuce waves and the prefect walks up to them. "Where's Ace?" "She's still changing."
" Really?" Epel frowns, " Isn't that like too long?" "You do know that it will take a long time to get ready for some people right? Like some people in your dorm?" Yuu raises their brow as they see the younger boy cringe at the thought.
" I wasn't expecting the three of you to actually join us though." Deuce comments. " Anything to get away for even a while." Epel sighs and they pat him in the back. Must be hard to constantly be chased around to perfect manners and style.
Jack and Sebek stare at each other before replying. " Swimming is actually good for exercising." The wolf proclaims and the other nods. " Yes! And Lilia-sama forced me to come."
" Are you guys sure it's not because Ace was the one who asked you to come?" Yuu snickers as they see the boys gain a hint of flush on their cheeks. "No-! I mean-! It- It will be rude to turn down an invitation so I- I mean we... Umm..."
Yuu seriously wants to laugh at them but that will be too rude. It's entertaining to see them be all in denial or unaware of their feelings for the only NRC female student. Ah~ Young love.
Yuu spots Ace from their peripheral vision. They almost choked because wow... They did not expect that.
" Ace!"
She turns her head at her name and beams at the sight of her friends. Yuu notices that the others still haven't noticed her, busy debating on a certain topic. But that is fine.
Yuu snickers, that is absolutely fine. They will be in for a surprise. And for sure, their reactions will be priceless.
"And I'm telling you that no! Ace did not do that!" Deuce comebacks at the assumption, the boys not noticing the prefect's mischievous smile or a girl fast approaching.
" I did not do what now?"
Deuce snaps to tell her what when all of the sudden, it felt like he lost his voice. His mouth is gaping and he seems to feel the heat a lot stronger now.
Ace is standing in front of them. Wearing a revealing outfit. They know that it's obvious that she's gonna wear a swimsuit but this... This is too much.
Her orange hair is released from her usual ponytail and falls down like curtains. Her legs once covered by black tights can now be seen in its glory. Her slim waist is complimented by the red color of the fabric. You can also see the actual bust of her breast compared to when it's covered by her shirt. And her skin...
They can feel their mind slipping away and Yuu had to bite their own tongue just not to laugh out loud.
Ace raises a brow at their silence. "What now? You all suddenly shut up." She turns her head to Deuce and he stills. "Yo Deuce, so what was that. I did not do what? Are you guys talking behind my back?" She glides her way infront of him and points at his chest. Smirking, she looks up to his burning face. " Or something else? Hmm~"
" I- I- uggmmm..." She's too close, he can see her all too clearly. Her face is too close, her smirk and her red eyes are all directed to him and... The subtle scent of damask rose reaches his nose.
Too much.
Ace is too much!
" Oy!" Epel and Ace rushes to catch Deuce. " Oh shit, he fainted." Ace doesn't know why he did though, probably the heat? She turns to Epel and when their eyes meets, his face explodes. "Epel? You okay?" This is worrying, is Epel also prone to heat?
The Pomefiore student doesn't know what to do. He never thought that he'll see Ace this- this exposed. " Epel?" He looks up and chokes when he sees Ace near his face. " You okay?" He wants to say yes but... His eyes travels down her face and he immediately stands up in a rush.
He needs to get out!
" I'm- I'm fine! I will just go and -I mean- umm yeah- I'll- I'll go get some water!!" They watch as Epel stumble before fully dashing away. Yuu so badly wants to drop and roll around laughing now. However, there is still two more. And they should probably take care of Deuce.
" What's up with him?" Ace mutters, she was worried and then he ran? Okay sure, that's fine. She allows Yuu to take Deuce off her to tend to the male. She then notices something.
The other two are quiet.
" Is something up?" Nothing, they are just staring at her. Ace is definitely confused now. Is the heat affecting all of them?
Sebek is trying very hard not to stare but it's hard not to. This version of Ace is different. She looks... She looks...
Sexy.
He blushes at the thought and slaps himself. "Sebek?!" " I'll be going ahead for a swim!" He declares and moves to the ocean.
No bad thoughts Sebek. No bad thoughts!
Ace looks absolutely stunning in that swimsuit though.
Sebek dives right in to the water. Dammit! No bad thoughts!
Ace cringes at the sound of the dive. That must have hurt, especially since he's still near the shore. "What is happening with these idiots now?" Deuce fainted, Epel ran away and Sebek dived too early. Is it the heat or something? Don't tell her Jack too?
" Ace." "Huh?" She looks up to see Jack standing beside her. " You... You look good in that." Ace stills and then smiles. She was not expecting that but hey, that was nice.
" Thanks. You're not looking that bad yourself. With all the muscles and stuffs. " She winks then laughs when she sees his tail wag. " Shut up." He moves out to the ocean.
It's unfair. Jack thinks. It's absolutely unfair that Ace is affecting him this much without her doing anything.It's unfair that she's pretty and sexy and... and... She looks so good with that. Her scent too...
Why does he wants to just gobble her up?
" Hey Ace!" "Yeah?" " You gonna go swim?" Yuu asks and when they see Ace hesitantly looks at Deuce and her eyes searching for Epel, they smile. "Go on! Join Sebek and Jack. Me and the other two will catch up later." At that, Ace brightens up but before she could go...
"Alice?" She flinches but turns to look at Yuu anyway. They smile at her, " You look wonderful."
Ace just stares at the prefect, stunned. Then a huge grin appears on her face, " Thanks Yuu!" She runs to the ocean and squeaks at the cold water.
Yuu shakes their head then sighs.
Damn... It's enjoyable sometimes but in reality it's tiring to see them all walk around each other. And it does not help that Ace is a bit of an idiot when it comes to romance.
Ah yes, they need to do some work.
