Kohala Coast, Hawaii | Evening | Sunday | February 20

[just-add-starch.livejournal.com]

As the sun gave way to the moon, the lights around the Big Island started coming on, brightening up the dark sky. Night falling just meant several new ways for the guests to enjoy themselves! A slight wind ruffled the palm trees but the temperature remained warm, making it comfortable enough to take long walks on the beach or just enjoy gazing up at the clear night sky.

There was still plenty to do, though! Nighttime activities were starting to swing into motion, music was wafting along the breeze, drawing people towards it's rhythmic sounds, and the smells of Hawaiian dishes were prevalent.

It was nighttime in Hawaii and the vacation had just begun!

"Why would you want to wear your outside shoes inside?" Momoko asked. "What if you stepped in something? Or it was raining and there was mud on your shoes? especially if you didn't notice. You'd track it all over the house."

"That's why you wipe your feet," Jaime pointed out.

So his mom didn't kill him.

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

"Or," she smiled, "change into your house shoes. Which are already totally clean and dry!"

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

"But then I have to have twice as many shoes!"

Actually, Jaime, no you didn't. Your shoe math was awful.

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

Totally awful. "It's just one extra pair, Jaime. Try them!"

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

Jaime picked up the shoes dubiously. Then he eyed them dubiously. Then he (dubiously) put them on. "They're... kind of comfy?" More than kinda, really."

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

Momoko sighed and dropped to fall back on her bed. "You're totally horrible. I give up on you. But!" She chuckled and lifted a hand to point in the air. "But! At least I threw your horrible flip-flops away!"

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

"I am not horrible," Jaime countered. "I am awesome!"

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

"Awesome people like crocs and can admit that house shoes are a totally awesome idea." She pointed her hand at him.

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

"Says you!"

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

"Says I!" She pointed at herself. "Because I am totally awesome, of course."

Not looking at him totally made it easier to pretend this was a normal evening and that she wasn't in pyjamas about to go to bed in the same room as him.

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

Jaime shook his head. "If you were really awesome then obviously you'd recognize my own awesomeness."

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

"Well, since I am totally awesome - do I hear any arguments about that? - and I say you're not meeting the qualifications, then we totally have a problem." Momoko rolled over until she was on her stomach, shifting to face him. Yes, it meant it was harder to pretend they were just hanging out as normal, but she wanted to talk to him.

"Okay, if I squint, maaaaybe you're kiiiiiind of awesome." And, she smiled as she noticed, still wearing the house shoes.

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

Jaime affected a rather unconvincing pout. "Only kinda?"

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

She sighed dramatically and shook her finger at him. "Well, you didn't like the crocs. I can only do so much with the points you've got."

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

"Well..." Jaime trailed off as he realized he didn't have a non-lame comeback.

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

She grinned, resting her head on her folded arms, just watching him.

...

Wait, was that weird?

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

He hoped not. He did that with her quite a lot himself.

"Well... at least my roommate is awesome?"

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

Oh sure. Remind her that they would be roommates for the week.

"Exactly!" Momoko pushed herself up, and busied herself with pulling the towel off her head and rubbing her hair, trying not to think. "It's totally the universe's way of keeping balance, see?"

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

"You sure know how to make a guy feel appreciated," Jaime teased with a little snicker.

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

"How about if I said something nice and sweet about how you're totally awesome and wonderful and smart and hot and nice and the greatest guy on earth ever," Momoko smiled as she stood and walked the towel back into the bathroom, pausing to take a deep breath.

"Would that help?" she continued in the same tone, reaching for her large-tooth comb before heading back into the room.

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

...

Yes.

As evidenced by Jaime's ridiculous blush.

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

Clutching her comb, Momoko padded back to sit on her bed without looking at him and missed his blush. "No answer? So do I have to go back to 'kinda awesome'?"

She began running the comb through her hair, working out any tangles.

Re: Room 513

[weldedtomyspine]

Jaime managed to find his voice, even if it was just a biiiit squeaky. "No, no, you should definitely be helpful!"

Re: Room 513

[heromaniac]

"Then how about this?" she laughed, dropping her hands to her lap and looking over at him. "With you and me in the same room, this automatically becomes the center of awesome and best room ever. They had to put us together to try to contain our ultimate super awesomeness in one space."
