Nightfall came quicker than everyone expected. They all walked along the beach while talking to each other.

   They had their moments where they got much closer to each other. Jyugo admitted to seeing Samon and Hajime as his true parents, and therefore wished the trip never ended.

   That led to the present, where Samon and Hajime sat in their hotel room, talking to each other about the children, Jyugo specifically.

   "Hajime, I'm just convinced that Jyugo needs a better place to be." Samon spoke, removing his shirt to toss them in a pile of dirty clothes that was starting to accumulate in the far corner of their room.

   "He certainly isn't being treated right at home..." Hajime replied, even he was considering taking Jyugo in as their own.

   "I'm not taking him back home, he is not going back to them Hajime." Samon was passionate about keeping Jyugo now.

   The poor baby was being mistreated at home, because his parents got in a tangle, he's being treated as if he's no good. Dropped off at school early only because his grandmother doesn't want to deal with him.

   "We are going to keep him," Samon now had his arms crossed. Hajime knew he wasn't going to talk Samon out of this even if he wanted to. "I'm going to tell him too."

   "Samon, breathe with me,"

   "Hajime I swear if you're about to tell me to give up on keeping him I'm going to bite that bald head of yours clean off your neck!" Samon growled, baring his teeth at his own spouse.

"Samon that would definitely be one of the very last things I'd tell you at this point in time, I just don't want you to wake up the others," Hajime put his fingers on his lips, "It's late you know."

Samon then took a deep, slow inhale through his nose, and shakes slowly out through his mouth.

"Why don't we pull Jyugo to the side tomorrow? Talk to him a little yeah?" Hajime said softly, sitting next to Samon, grabbing one hand.

Samon mumbled to himself, then nodded in response.

Them both dressed in their sleepwear, lied in the bed with almost no space, Samons hands against Hajimes chest, eyes shut. Their breathing was in sync and it made it so much easier for Hajime to sleep, hearing Samons steady breathing.

That next morning, Samon stretched his arms over his head, and yawned. Hajime was gone from bed. The sheets were tossed over top of Samons feet.

Curtains were drawn back, letting in the natural sunlight. However the sun hasn't fully come up yet. The sky was a rather grayish blue color, the sun hiding behind the horizon.

"Hajime." Samon entered the bathroom, where Hajime was taking a shower. Samon leaned against the sink. "Where should we take Jyugo to talk?"

"Don't you think we should ask where he wants to go? And we'd have to contact his parents too."

   "Yes, yes. When we get back to the school, I'll ask Momoko to pull up the location of his parents and speak with them in person." Samon explained, then left the bathroom.

   Meanwhile, Jyugo was curled up with Kaguya, nuzzling his head into her shoulders. Not awake, but not sleep either.

   His heart skipped a few beats every now and then, the thought of the summer beach visit being over made itself clear in the child's mind. He'd be back with his careless grandmother, and isolated cousins.

   His eyes teared up at the thought, and he sniffled quietly.

   "I don't want to leave..." He mumbled quietly into Kaguyas shoulder, tears wetting her neck.

   Kaguya didn't want to scare Jyugo, so she held still, and let the child cry into her shoulder. He was really troubled, and she couldn't help but worry, he would go back to a horrid environment to grow up in.

   "I want to stay with everyone...don't make me go back Kaguya..." he hiccuped, tightening his grip on her, so she embraced him tightly, yet gently.

   "Jyugo I'll hold on to you for as long as you need me to." Kaguya reassured, softly stroking Jyugos hair, until he drifted back to sleep. 

   Jyugos lips curved into a small smile as he relaxed back into Kaguya. Despite being a robot, she was warmer than he was used to.
