Aiko turned back to look inside the bus as everyone else got on, removing her hand from the window which now had faint fingerprints on it. She didn't know what to do with herself. She was a fidgeter, always having to move. The anticipation of arriving at the new house didn't help her nerves. She tapped her toes back and forth like a metronome. 

When the bus stopped, she jumped up and clasped her hands together. [color=a2d39c]"Finally!"[/color] Mai exited first with Aiko right behind her. They stood on the sidewalk as they waited for the boys to get off. It was a nice suburban area, Aiko noticed. Cherry blossom trees lined the sidewalk and there was the occasional biker passing by. Relatively quiet with the exception of the sounds of birds chirping in a nearby tree. Aiko turned to look at them, but they started flying away before she could get a good look. 

Kazuo switched his bag from one hand to the other. Noticing this, Aiko felt guilty about letting Kai carry her bag, especially since he was still carrying his own as well. As they all started walking in the direction of the house- with Kazuo leading the way, of course- Aiko silently snatched her bag back from Kai. She held it behind her back with both hands. Better than only using one, but stil slightly heavy. She may as well be at the gym working out right now.

Kazuo looked behind him and gestured for Aiko to come walk besidd him. She raised an eyebrow because that was something he didn't normally do. Nonetheless, she took a few quick steps to catch up to him. [color=7ea7d8]"Check it out, Aiko, there it is,"[/color] he said, pointing. Aiko looked over to where his [url=https://i.pinimg.com/736x/7f/89/81/7f8981319cd68fc531501d31593a5749--manga-backgrounds-paisajes-anime.jpg]finger was directing her.[/url] 

[color=a2d39c]"Wooahh,"[/color] Aiko said, in awe. Kazuo looked down at her and smirked, but then his eyes found the bag she was holding again.

[color=7ea7d8]"You took it back?"[/color] He inquired. Aiko nodded. Kazuo's smirk grew wider as he said, "[color=7ea7d8]"I think you're warming up to the guy. Are you?"[/color]

Aiko narrowed her eyes and removed one hand from her bag to playfully shove his shoulder. [color=a2d39c]"Of course not."[/color]

He merely rolled his eyes and grinned in response. His usual serious attitude came back as he fished around in his pocket for the keys to the house. [color=7ea7d8]"Let's see... ah, there it is!"[/color] he muttered to himself, pulling out a small silver key and offering it to Mai. [color=7ea7d8]"Would you like to do the honors?"[/color]
