So that means Nikolai did not mind her actions and actually shifted his arms to make it more comfortable for the adorable lady next to him.
Tsuki noticed his gesture and secretly felt her heart fluttering. She did not like it to be honest, in the beginning Tsuki was irritated as she felt ignored by Nikolai. Later on when they started talking, she just wanted to mess and tease him. Tsuki then found out that Nikolai would be a great friend to have however she knew he was not the type of guy she needed for her life.
As the four were getting along with their getting to know questions, Ace and Venus had finally turned up. Tsuki who had very sharp eyes noticed Ace's shirt crinkles and Venus' new layer of lipstick immediately teased with a hum of the lyrics, " You were gone for quite a while, half an hour or more" from the song of Lipstick on your collar.
Nikolai who understood Tsuki motives joined her, "Tsuki your voice is quite nice, I think your tone will suit the song Love Confession by Jay Chuo".
Alice also butted in with her singing, " Playing a romantic date, not to be afraid of nothing goes right" then she gave Tsuki a suggestive look before the two finish the verse "Having you means having the whole world. My dear, when I fell in love with you from that day forth, my happiness came easy.".
Venus flushed hard and Ace could tell so he changed the topic to help his lady from the teasing, " So what have you four been doing?".
Before the audience could respond, Ace grasped Venus hands and led her to take a sit to join with the rest.
"Thump thump thump…" Venus could tell her heartbeat was going to be the death of her one day from that moment on. Although they had just gotten out of a making out session, this type of romantic gestures is actually what gets girls' hearts to jump the most.
"We have been getting to know each other I guess" Alaric responded and added " Also I just realized that the girls are staying here for another four days, same as us."
Venus joined the conversation to cool down her heart, " Ohh that's great, if you guys don't already have private plans, we could hang out".
Ace hands then went up to slightly brush a few strands of Venus hair that was covering her gorgeous side profile from him while simultaneously responding, "No we don't have any plans, we just came to relax so yeah we are totally up for anything you girls want to do.".
Alice rolled her eyes at Venus which earned back a teasing tongue sticking out from her. This type of childish act made Ace heart almost exploded from how adorable this girl could be.
Seeing their lovey interactions Alice pouted as she knew she'd lost the battle. Alaric who saw her pout could not help but again be in awe. In order to help his new "friend" Alaric waited for the moment Tsuki took another drink before grabbing a napkin and pretended to wipe of nothing for her.
Alice was shocked, as although they had been hitting it off, she did not expect this type of interaction. She was not ready for it.
However deep down, Alice knew her heart somehow had a shade of pink painted over it's gloominess towards men. It was a shade that Alice used to have and had long forgotten how it looked like until today.
In the midst of all the secret thoughts and contemplations, the group was still talking about their plans. The conversation was:
Ace: So where or what do you guys have in mind for tomorrow?
Venus: We really have nothing to be honest, usually we drop till we shop and go to spas and such.
Tsuki then decided to tease the boys: Of course, oh right we should totally go there, it's our ritual, and a type of healing therapy you know.
Never did she think the response would be: Okay!
It came from both Alaric and Ace, and this response made a certain someone very gloomy. Nikolai had no interest in things such as that. He could sometimes go shopping but usually to pick up girls. Most of the time his activities required girls, money, sports or games.
However since his two friends clearly did not think of bros before h**s, he had to gloomily agree. ( It's just a saying, don't come at me).
Hearing that the girls smirked at each other secretly before proceeding to the conversation as they all drank and talked the night away.
Before even realizing it, it was already 6 in the morning and everyone's eyes were similar to a panda. Tsuki let out a yawn and said " You guys should go back a few hours to close your eyes.".
Alice butted in, " Yeah we girls need to rest up too.". The guys although did not feel exhausted because they were bad workaholics agreed to let the girls sleep.
"Let me send you guys out then" Venus offered.
Seeing her tired state, Ace's heart quenched a little as he took a tender gaze at her before saying, " Okay then we'll get going, just go to sleep the moment we're out alright? Your beauty rest should not have been disturbed sorry for making you girls stay up the whole night."
All three girls: Awwww
The two men who saw that made a disgusted face at Ace before also saying their goodbyes piece.
