As the other were checking out their rooms, Urata and Sakata stood in theirs, silence enveloping them. Urata didn't know what to say to get rid of the awkwardness and Sakata was nervous being alone with Urata.

He was blushing as he mentally cursed at himself for thinking it was a good idea to agree with Mafu. Why did I say okay? It's awkward with the two of us alone. Sakata was standing still as his mind was panicking before Urata finally spoke up.

"At least our room isn't next to Amatsuki. He snores so loudly and I want to try to be able to sleep in peace."

Sakata let out a small giggle at Urata's statement. The giggle sounded lovely to the brunette and was filled with such cuteness that he blushed upon hearing it.

"Wwww you're so cruel Urata." Sakata turned to the brunette and smiled at him.

"You haven't been in the same room with a sleeping Amatsuki." Urata joked as he let out a small laugh.

Sakata giggled even more, what was I getting nervous for. Urata doesn't seem to be bothered, it actually seems like he's in a good mood.

Sakata was glad that Urata didn't feel that awkward around him anymore and that he was talking to him. He heard the others leave their rooms and turned to face the brunette.

"Should we join them in the living room?"

"Yeah, knowing them they'd probably tease us if we stayed any longer."

Urata walked ahead as Sakata followed behind. They arrived to the living room as Shima turned to look at them.

"What took you guys so long~" he gave a teasing smirk at Urata, who just glared.

"We literally left our room at the same time as you guys. So don't say anything else."

The brunette wasn't having any of Shima's teasing, he wasn't going to let the purple-haired male embarrass him. He's already suffered enough embarrassment when he told them about his feelings for the redhead.

"So what are we going to do for today?" Mafu asked, they were all sitting in the living room.

Shima was on an armchair while Senra sat on the armrest, Mafu was sitting on the floor, playing with Iroha. Soraru was laying on the couch as Sakata went to join his brother on it. He moved his brother's legs so he can sit and then put them over his lap, like he was wearing a safety harness on a roller coaster. Soraru just gave him an annoyed look before laughing it off. Kashitarou sat on the other armchair with Amatsuki sitting on the armrest. Urata took his place on the couch as he sat on the spot that Soraru hadn't taken up, which was next to Sakata, causing the redhead to blush a bit.

"Why not get changed and go to the beach for awhile?" Amatsuki offered but the albino waved his hand to dismiss the idea.

"The car ride tired me out, plus it's a bit too late."

"We're here for three days so we can go tomorrow." Senra suggested as the others nodded.

"So what can we do?" Mafu asked again.

"How about you two tell us more about yourselves?" Amatsuki said as he looked at Sakata and Soraru.

"Didn't we already say enough?" Soraru replied back with a question.

"I want to know more about you guys. So far we only know that you're brothers and that you being a delinquent is just a false rumor, well almost false since you do get into fights."

"Nothing else is needed to be said."

"Is there a reason you don't want to tell us?" Mafu looked at Soraru worriedly as Amatsuki kept asking him.

He was worried that Amatsuki's questioning would anger the raven-haired male and was about to scold the brunette before Kashitarou cut him off.

"Eh? You didn't tell them about your parents? I thought you said you already told them about your parents being gone?"

Soraru facepalmed as Kashitarou just looked at him innocently. I forgot I lied to Kashitarou and told him that I already did. Kashitarou just sighed before giving the raven-haired male a weak smile. I can tell that Soraru trust them now, he should just let them know so they don't worry about him. After a few more seconds of silence, the room erupted with surprise.

"HUH?!?"

They all shouted as Soraru kept his face covered by his hand. Kashitarou just looked at them in bewilderment, is it really that shocking?

"Wait, wait, wait. Their parents are dead?" Amatsuki said slowly in an almost inaudible voice as he looked at the brunette next to him.

"Yeah, why does that shock you guys? Soraru and Sakata are living alone."

"Well yeah, but we just thought that their parents were on a trip or something." Shima asked Kashitarou.

"Soraru?"

Mafu looked at the raven-haired male who had been silent during the whole exchange. Urata turned his head to look at the redhead next to him, he wanted to see the expression on his face. Sakata had a neutral expression, but Urata could see a small trace of sadness.

The two of them were a bit worried about the brothers but when they looked at Kashitarou, he just had a look on his face that says 'you should tell them.'

"Yeah it's true. Our parents are dead." Soraru removed his hand from his face and turned his head to look at the others.

"So what? It's not important."

"Eh? You don't feel upset at all?" Amatsuki questioned the raven-haired male who had a blank, expressionless face.

"Yeah but I still have my amazing little brother, so I'm fine."

"It's nice that you're fine as long as you have Sakata." Senra smiled at Soraru, who gave a small smile back.

"So that's why you're overprotective of him." Amatsuki said with a sad smile on his face.

"But if it's not that important as you say, then why didn't you just tell us back then when we first meet you?" Urata stated as Sakata twiddle with his fingers.

"Um..........you guys were really upset that day when we told you about my past and we didn't want you guys to become even more upset because of us. Plus niichan.......didn't trust you guys at all back then as much as he does now."

"Oh," was all Urata said in reply. Can't blame him for not trusting us. We barely knew him back then.

"Well, we should tell you since you guys deserve the right to know," Sakata said as he looked at his brother to see if he would say anything. Soraru just waved his hand to let the redhead know to continue.

"Our parents died in an accident. Niichan was about 15 years old and I was 13. They were coming back from a trip when another car crashed into them."

"We didn't know this happened until a day later when the hospital called, confirming their death." Soraru said, his tone a bit bitter, as Mafu looked at him with sad eyes. He felt bad that they had to suffer something like that at a young age.

"We went to the funereal and the people looked at us with pity. Our family relatives were trying to make us feel better."

"That was the first time I saw Sakata cry badly. Tears wouldn't stop even when I tried to comfort him."

"Our relatives were thinking of raising us, but we'd be separated. Niichan didn't let them, he argued back that he would take care of me on his own. They agreed with him but said that if he couldn't handle it then they'd take care of me."

"So Soraru had to take care and support you, he didn't have time to enjoy his childhood."

Shima felt bad that all the responsibility was put on Soraru at such a young age as Sakata laughed bitterly.

"Yeah, I really bothered niichan."

"Oi. Don't say that, I chose to take care of you remember." Soraru playfully scolded his brother.

"So how were you able pay for the house?" Senra asked the raven-haired male. Soraru glanced at Senra before speaking.

"I started to get jobs, which lead to me missing school a lot. Once I was in high school, I got sent to the guidance counselor multiple times for always being late. At first he was mad but I eventually told him about my situation and his attitude changed. He helped me financially support Sakata, allowing him to live with me. So that's why he hasn't expelled me yet, he knows that I have a lot on my plate."

"Anyways, that's pretty much all from our past." Sakata said as he looked at the rest with a weak smile on his face.

Even though he's sad, he's still smiling, Urata had a sad smile appear on his face.

"Wow, you guys have a sad past."

Mafu looked at them with a pitied expression. The room was filled with silence, all of them looking at the two siblings with sadness.

"Why are you guys so sad?" Soraru said as he looked at them.

"Eh? Well it's just—"

"Don't worry about it."

Sakata gave them a bright smile, despite what he had been through he was still smiling.

"I'm just glad that you guys care about us. As long as I have niichan with me then I'm okay."

At the sight of a cheerful Sakata, no one could stay sad anymore. Kashitarou just smiled at the redhead and turned his head towards Soraru, who glared at the brunette for bringing the topic up, before the raven-haired's face turned into a smirk. He laughed as he saw the color drain from Kashitarou's face.

"Kashi, why don't you tell them about your relationship with Amatsuki?" Kashitarou blushed and was stuttering.

"W-W-Why d-d-did y-you say t-t-that?"

"If you're going to make me talk about my past then it's only fair for you to do it too."

"HUH?!"

The room was filled with their shouts once again as they looked at the two brunettes who were blushing.

"WAIT! WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?! WHY WASN'T I AWARE OF THIS?!" Mafu shouted his questions towards Amatsuki, he was the most confused out of the rest since he was closer to the brunette. How rude Ama-chan, not telling me about it, Mafu pouted.

"E-Eh? Um........it happened about two weeks before he came back." Amatsuki was blushing madly.

"Wait, is that why you would reject my invitations to hang out because you were spending time talking to Kashi!?" Mafu screeched.

"So who confessed first?" Shima asked the two.

"Ah, it was Amatsuki." Kashitarou said as he felt his boyfriend hiding his blushing face in his hair.

"So Amatsuki is capable of being the first to make a move." Urata teased the blushing brunette.

"Why didn't you tell us before?" Mafu felt betrayed that his best friend never told him.

"Cause you'd guys just tease me~" Amatsuki whined, his face still hidden in Kashitarou's hair.

"Of course we would, if we tease Shima and Senra about it then it's only fair to tease you too." Urata smirked at Amatsuki.

"Wwww. So we have four people in our group dating each other." Mafu commented on, well six if I can get Urata or Sakata to confess.

The four laughed at the two blushing pairs. They enjoyed goofing around, teasing each other and having a fun time talking with one another. Sakata at some point dozed off, he unconsciously rested his head on Urata's shoulder.

The moment Urata noticed the younger's head, he blushed but didn't push the redhead away. Soraru noticed that Sakata had fallen asleep on Urata's shoulder and laughed to himself. He got up and was beginning to walk to his room as the others looked at him.

"It's late so we should go to sleep." He pointed at Sakata, who was well asleep.

"Ah~ I didn't even realize it was that late." Kashitarou said as he got up from his seat.

Mafu looked at Urata, who was still blushing, and giggled to himself before giving Soraru a pleading look. Soraru could tell what he wanted and turned his attention towards Urata.

"Oi tanuki, you carry Sakata back to your shared room. I'm too tired."

Urata looked at Soraru bewilderingly.

"What?"

"Yeah Soraru, can Urata even carry someone taller than him?" Kashitarou teased the brunette, who glared at him.

"Say anything else and I'll kill you."

"No you won't~"

"Wanna try me?"

"Cut it out you two." Senra said to the two bickering.

"Urata, carry Sakata to your room." Mafu spoke to the brunette.

"Why are you guys ordering me to do it?"

"Cause you love the redhead." Shima teased as Urata blushed but then carefully glanced at the raven-haired male.

Soraru isn't going to be happy. He was surprised the raven-haired male didn't seem angered.

"Just carry him or do you want me to wake him up and have him carry you?" Soraru said in a teasing way that irritated Urata.

"Fine." Urata said as the others left to go to their rooms.

He turned to face the sleeping redhead and smiled at the sight. He looks peaceful and cute. Urata picked up the redhead carefully, to not wake him up, and walked to their shared room. Guess the delinquent doesn't mind at all. Urata thought as he laid Sakata down on his bed and went to his own.

The beach house was filled with silence as they all slept peacefully, looking forward to the next few days.
