And where the hell have you two been?" Hitomiko's eyes were spouting fire when the two of you stepped into the kitchen.
"The park," Kariya said.
"Just the park?"
"Yes."
Hitomoiko glared from you to Kariya and then she shook her head. "Have you eaten dinner yet?"
When you nodded, she let out a deep sigh. "Go ahead. Just don't make me worry so much in the future. Just call, okay?"
"Sure." Kariya shrugged and then Hitomiko walked away to check on the little children to see if they were actually asleep.
"So, why are you wearing traditional clothing?" Hiroto eyed you as were the other ex-captains.
"Well, it was either this or a bikini." you shot Kariya a slight glare.
"I see, and what have you been doing so long in that park?" Saginuma asked as serious as ever.
"Just ... walking." Kariya shrugged.
"Nothing more?" Suzuno asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Nope." you shook your head.
"So you've been walking around a park all day, just talking and eating?" Midorikawa asked in disbelief.
"Pretty much." Kariya nodded.
"Oh, come on! Cut the crap, you two. You've snogging and been all lovey-dovey in the park the whole day, haven't you?" Nagumo smirked as you and Kariya got a bright red.
"So what if we were? I love Masaki, so just leave us be." you were the first to recover and shot a glare to Nagumo, who only started laughing.
"Good little kiddies," he said between laughs.
"We'll be leaving then. Tell Hitomiko that we'll be there tomorrow." Hiroto smiled and stood up the others followed his example except for Nagumo who was still laughing. Suzuno rolled his eyes and pulled Nagumo out of his chair and out of the door before the others, getting loud complaints from the redhead. The others followed the two men and then you and Kariya were the only ones in the kitchen left.
"I hate them," Kariya growled and then turned towards you. "That's the exact reason why I didn't want to get back inside to pull on some shoes. They're to damn nosy."
You chuckled and laid your hand on his cheek, making him shut his mouth. He snorted and put a stray lock out of your face. Then, he went with his hand towards one of the thousand barrettes that kept your messy hair from being ... messy.
"You know, I like your hair like this, but the messy side is good too."
"Really?"
He nodded. "Yeah, really."
And then he leant forward, catching your lips with his.
