Aimi waited for Kaoru at the meeting place, "Sorry to keep you waiting," Hikaru said as he walked up and she turned to him.
"Hikaru... What are you doing here?" Aimi asked.
"Well... Kaoru is sick and he wanted to make up for yesterday, so he asked me to step in," Hikaru explained.
"Oh, I see," She looked at him, "Should we go back?"
"Nah, we're already here, plus Kaoru is expected me to hang out with you all day so we might as well," Hikaru looked her over, "Did anyone help you with your clothes?"
"Hmm... No... Is it weird?" She asked looked down at her outfit.
"No... It's alright," Hikaru said.
Meanwhile further down the street, "So, what's going on Kaoru?" Haruhi asked watching her sister.
"We're going to tail them, of course. Can't you tell, Haruhi?" Kaoru said and looked at her.
"I'm asking why does Aimi have to date Hikaru?!" Tamaki asked going into overprotective father mode.
"Hey! Be quiet, would you prefer Haruhi went on the date then?" Kaoru asked and Tamaki gasped, "I thought so."
"Tamaki-Senpai, just be quiet... Tensions were high between the two yesterday so this should clear the air," Haruhi said.
"It's also a good thing for Hikaru to find more people who matter to him," Kaoru said.
Hikaru and Aimi sat on a bench looking at a tour guide, "So, where do you wanna go, Aimi?" Hikaru asked.
"Well, Kaoru said he planned everything so I didn't give it much thought," Aimi said and pointed to a park, "Haruhi and I went there once, it was cute."
"Hmm... Hey, I've heard they have an outlet mall... Want to go there?" Hikaru looked at her.
"Okay, do you need clothes?" She asked.
"No, I'd never buy clothes from there... What about you?" Hikaru said.
"We could, but I don't have any need to buy clothes... Most of mine are your mother's designs," Aimi told him and looked at the tour guide, "Oh, what about this one?" She asked pointing to an attraction.
"My mother?" Hikaru looked at her shocked and Aimi nodded, "But your outfit today isn't."
"Nope, but when I'm going for a fancy meal then it's your mothers," Aimi explained, "Enough about your mother, what about this place?"
Hikaru looked over, "Do you want to go there? It's fine, I guess... I'll call a taxi or ask my chauffeur," Hikaru said and looked at her, "Not that you can't do those things... I hmm... I'll just shut up before I offend you again..."
Aimi looked at the advertisement, "It is a bit far out isn't it..." She looked at the sky, "Hmm... Yeah... Let's not go, Haruhi might need me later and Kaoru might need you."

"True," Hikaru said and nodded then looked at her, "Aimi will you hurry up and decide where you want to go?" He snapped, "You didn't want to go where I suggested, then you mentioned a place that you didn't even want to go in the end..."
"It's because you kept making snide comments Hikaru," She countered, "Look, Kaoru's ill no need to take it out on me, alright?"
"How did you know..." Hikaru said.
"I'm the same with Haruhi," Aimi explained.
"Ice cream! Ice cream! Does anyone want ice cream?" A man said then suddenly disappeared.
"Didn't that man look like Honey-Senpai?" Hikaru questioned and looked where Aimi was to see her gone then looked up hearing her voice.
"One vanilla strawberry, please," Aimi said with a smile at the ice cream stand.
"What the hell Aimi, don't disappear like that," Hikaru said walking up.
"Come on its only ice cream, the guide book says this place is famous for its ice cream," She explained and her eyes sparkle.
"You really do remind me or a female version of Honey-Senpai, when you get lured by food," Hikaru said with a sigh.
"Here, try some," Aimi said and held up the ice cream to him with a smile, "For me~"
Hikaru looked at her confused, "Fine, but if it sucks we're playing a penalty game," He took hold her head hand a little, leaned down to take a bite.
"No way, I'm not playing~" She whined like a child at him, "How's your cheek?"
"My cheek?" He stopped but looked at her, "Oh... It's okay... I didn't think you were feeling bad about it."
"I am..." She looked down at their feet.
Hikaru flicked her forehead, "I guess you deserve two penalty games then," He winked and took a bite of the icecream, "It's not bad."
"Shut..." She is cut off when Hikaru is pushed away from her.
"What a pretty young lady! No need to share one! Here's another one on the house!" A clerk said.
Aimi looked over, "Thank you..." She took it and took a bite, "Yeah, it's nice," She said.
"Too bad Kaoru couldn't come..." Hikaru said looking down and gasped a little when Aimi hugged him, "Aimi?"
"It's okay," She whispered, "Come on, let's walk around a bit till we find something," She said and started to walk with him.
After the two of them finished their ice cream, "So Aimi, what's next?" Hikaru asked and saw Aimi at another stand again, "Bloody hell," He muttered and walked to her, "What is this all-you-can-eat tour?" He asked.
"It's a pickled yam, unusual," Aimi says picking one up and holds it out to him, "Here, try it."
He took a bite and eats it, blushing a little, "It's.. good," He muttered.

"I'll take two bags for these please," Aimi said.
"You're not supposed to be getting souviners till the last day of your trip," Hikaru said.
"They're for Kaoru and Haruhi, since ice cream will melt by the time we get back," She turned to him and smiled.
"How do you know I'm worried about Kaoru?" He asked looking away a little.
"Because I'd be same with Haruhi," Aimi explained and gasped taking his hands, "Hikaru, I've thought of something wanna heard it?" She asked and he nodded, "Since we're here the whole of summer, how about we go somewhere like a proper date another day? Today, we can look in stores here and find something for Kaoru... That way your head won't be full of worries," She smiled at him, "What do you say?"
Hikaru looked shocked and smiled, "Sure thing, sounds like a plan," He said.
The two of them went around the stores and stands picking stuff out. Aimi held his arm and gasped pulling him into a store, "Wa! Aimi!" He laughed as he followed her.
With the host club, "I haven't seen her like this for years," Haruhi said with a smile.
"I guess, while we weren't looking, it work out fine," Tamaki said.
"I'm not positive that Hikaru is escorting her," Kyoya commented.
"Let's go home. It would ruin it if they discover us now," Kaoru said.
"Gladly!" Haruhi rushed back to the B&B with Tamaki behind her.
Aimi froze hearing a rumble in the sky and looked up, "Did you hear something just now?" Aimi asked.
"No, I didn't hear anything, but it does look like it might rain," Hikaru said and looked at her, "Shall we head back now? I'll fetch a taxi for us," Hikaru said and Aimi nodded.
"Hey, Aimi?! Is that you?" Arai called out and Aimi turned to him, "You've been out shopping?"
"Yeah, you working?" Aimi asked.
"Yeah, this is where my uncle's shop it," Arai told her, "Want me to drive you both back? I heard the thunder. It's gonna rain soon."
"Don't bother, we'll get a taxi. We don't need your help," Hikaru said.
"Don't waste your money on a taxi! Besides, it'll be faster this way!" Arai said.
"Hikaru, please can we accept? I won't go if yo-" Aimi started.
"Why don't you go with him then? You'll be on your own though," Hikaru said.
"Hikaru..." Aimi muttered.
"Go ahead and do whatever you want!! Have a good chat about the past, but leave me out of it!" Hikaru snapped and ran off.
Back at the B&B, Haruhi is shaking beside Tamaki, "It'll be okay Haruhi, want to go somewhere else?" Tamaki asked.
"N-Not till Aimi is back..." She stuttered, "A-Aimi is s-scared o-of thunder a-and li-lightening too."
Tamaki eyes opened wide and Kaoru's phone rang, "Oh, it's Hikaru," He said and picked up, "Hey, Hikaru... Eh? Are you coming back on foot? What about Aimi?... Huh? You got into another fight and left her?"
Tamaki rushed over and took the phone off Kaoru, "Hikaru! You didn't see her get in the car, did you? If not, go back! Go back and find Aimi!" Tamaki ordered and Hikaru complained about the thunder storm, "You jerk!! Go back right now!! How dare you leave a girl behind in the rain! Before you throw a fit like some jealous brat, think about how others might feel! Aimi is terrifed of thunder and lightning! GO BACK!" He hung up handing the phone back to Kaoru and wrapped Haruhi up in the blanket, "Earphones anyone?" He asked.
Kaoru dug his out of his pocket handing them to Tamaki. Tamaki atached the earphones to his phone playing music, "Here you go Haruhi," He said putting the buds in her ears gently, "I'm right here like last time okay?"
Meanwhile, Aimi was hiding in a church crying and covering her ears. The doors of the church opened but Aimi can't move from her fear. Aimi was hiding underneath a table, shaking, covering her ears with her eyes closed.
Hikaru called out for her as he walked forward and looked down under a table, "Aimi..." He called out and she looked at him.
Aimi got up and rushed to him hugging him, "Hikaru..." She held onto him tightly shaking, "I'm sorry... I'm sorry."
Hikaru put his headphones on her and held her, "No, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, for today and yesterday," He said and called Kaoru, "Hey Kaoru, I got her... Can you send the car to the church?... Thanks..." He hung up and looked at the table, "Is it normal for common folk or those who used to be common to hide in narrow places?" He asked.
Aimi gripped the back of his shirt hiding her face and shrugged her shoulders, "Kaoru, is coming with a car," Hikaru told her and the doors opened, Hikaru looked over, "Come on Aimi, let's go," He said but she didn't move, "Sorry in advance..." He muttered and picked her up bridal style walking out of the church meeting Kaoru, "Hey Kaoru, you're sick you should be in bed..."
"I got worried, can you blame me? Get her in the car before she is sick," Kaoru said.
Hikaru nodded and the three of them got it, "Honey-Senpai, Mori-Senpai and Kyoya-Senpai, you're all here?" He asked as Aimi held onto him and Kaoru followed them as the driver took them back to the B&B and Aimi hid in her room for the last week for their holiday.
