An Unexpected encounter at the beach. ( Cerbera and Haruka )

Cerbera continued to twitch, closing both her eyes while she took another sip from her drink, opening one eye to stare at Masato.

" I'll drink this one first.. "

She looked over at the sea, deciding to take a swim later. She placed her can carefully on the sand, making sure it couldn't fall easily.

Masato nodded. Now that he considered her, Cerbera didn't seem to be that angry, or even annoyed. I still have much to learn about her,he thought.

Haruka had taken the chance to get a cherry soda from the cooler. She then passed a Yellow Pineapple Fernandes to Masato.

"Arigatou, Haruka."

"Kanpai?" Haruka extended her can to Cerbera. "It's 'Cheers' in Japanese," she sheepishly explained. "I thought we should toast today."

"That sounds like a good idea, Haruka," Masato said. "Won't you join us, Cerbera-san?"

Cerbera stared at the two, narrowing her eyes at them.

" ..What is there to.. "

Cerbera started to think of what Haruka just said, then saying it in a weird way.

" ..Can..Pie..? Whatever it was. "

However she did lift her can from the sand and brought it to her stomach.

The grinning Haruka made to clink her can with Cerbera's. So did Masato.

"Kanpai. Cheers."

After that, they would take long sips from their respective drinks.

"Ahhh," Masato exhaled, refreshed after his labor to set up their gear, "It's so good..."

"Haii," Haruka agreed. She looked at Cerbera, who had probably by this time drunk already as well.

Cerbera stared down at her can when they toasted, narrowing her eyes against it while she held it tightly, not saying anything and tried not to show a weakened expression. Inside it felt like she suddenly had gained friends but at the same time it hurted her because Sindel used to be a friend aswell, she started to become confused.

" .... "

Cerbera didn't look different to Haruka, but Haruka still sensed the sudden change in her. "Cerbera-san? What's wrong?"

Masato decided not to crowd the two girls, letting Haruka handle this one.

Cerbera looked up at them, quickly putting on a quick smile.

" Nothing. "

With that Cerbera brought the can back to her lips and took very long sips without stopping, closing her eyes while she tried to think of something else.

"Oh." Haruka wasn't fully convinced, but she could sense Cerbera wasn't going to elaborate. Time to change topics.

"How have you been, Cerbera-san? I mean, since we last met in person." Which was a tag team match against each other.

Cerbera started to kneel up and turned to look at Haruka, placing the can besides her.

" I've been okay, I guess. Ma-- "

Cerbera yelped as she was hit in the back of the head with the ball again, making her fall forward and against Haruka, if Haruka fell she'd end up ontop of her but groaned either way.

"Kyah!" The startled Haruka found herself on her back with Cerbera's face buried in her bust, Cerbera's own chest pushing into her tummy. She blushed madly upon realizing their embarrassing position. "A-anou, Cerbera-san?"

Masato was even more flummoxed. "Are you all right?" he exclaimed as he stumbled over to the two girls.
