Akira clomped over to where Nobuta was sitting, a rucksack full of food and other accessories like a pot with a pig handle and a ladle hanging off the side on his back. "Let's put up the tent, Nobuta!" He reached out to wave a hand in front of Nobuta's face, breaking her line of sight with the river where Shuuji and Mariko were talking. When Shuuji reached out to tuck a stray hair behind Mariko's ear, Nobuta stood up and turned to Akira.
"Let's put up the tent, AKIRA." She said firmly, moving towards a site that was a bit farther away from the main group of tents.
Akira nodded, kissing his fingers before konning in agreement. He clanked after her with a small bounce in his step. He dropped his rucksack and began to help her put up the tent, marking out where the poles would be and watching her as he worked. He thought she was beautiful like this, determined and focused. After all, Akira loved Nobuta because she was Nobuta and not some other girl like Chiaki from class 3-C who didn't look at him seriously like Nobuta did.
When their hands accidentally bumped in tying the tent to the frame, Akira looked at Nobuta and gulped. He watched as she nodded an apology and moved inside the tent, pulling her things as well as Mariko's neatly into the corners. Akira stared at his hand for a long moment, his heart beating face as he began to shake his head.
"-KIRA."
Akira looked up from his hand to see Nobuta looking curiously up at him. "Want to set up your tent?" Nobuta pointed at Shuuji's and his tent next to the other. Akira gulped once and nodded, cheering a bit as they began to work.
Once the second tent was up, Akira whooped and bounced around Nobuta, who gave him a slightly crooked smile. He was so excited to see that smile that he almost picked her up and twirled her around but instead continued whooping around her. He straightened up and accidentally knocked into her, his lips pressed against the corner of her lips. He froze for a moment before backing up.
Nobuta raised her fingers to the spot and Akira just stared at her, eyes wide with shock. Before he began to stammer his apologies, Shuuji and Mariko came between them, their joy at the tents being up palpable as they disappeared into the one Mariko was sharing with Nobuta.
"AKIRA." Nobuta whispered before running off into the woods, leaving Akira frozen in place. He soon jetted after her, his long legs slowly gaining ground.
"Nobuta!" He kept her in sight as he soon caught up with her, grabbing her shoulders and pulling her into an embrace as they skidded to a halt, only to stumble. Akira pulled her close and twisted their bodies over so he would take the brunt of the fall.
His arms tightened around her until he felt they were no longer moving, then they flew off her, flopping out as he tried to calm his panting breathing. Nobuta squeaked when they fell and made no sound or movement afterwards.
Akira peeked through one eye, checking out their surrounding. Still in the woods, he squinted through both eyes before looking at the top of Nobuta's head. "Kon?" One hand raised up to wave in her face.
"AKIRA." She whispered, slowly raising her head to look up at him, tears leaking slowly out from her eyes.
"Ah! Nobuta shouldn't cry. Nobuta is best when Nobuta is happy." Akira nodded, his hair adorned with leaves.
Nobuta sniffled lightly before moving up and kissed him clumsily on the chin.
Akira paused and stared at her, not daring to move.
She gave him a soft, crooked smile and stood up. "Let's go back, Akira."
He whooped loudly and scrambled to his feet. "Let's run towards the horizon!" He yelled, repeating a line he saw on tv last night about a teacher who was heir to the yakuza and some rich kid that was able to walk out of jail with the help of his friends. He liked that sort of thing, where friends helped each other. Just like Shuuji, Nobuta, and he were doing.
Nobuta nodded once and took off towards the camp. Akira nodded, kissed his fingers, and konned before following suit.
