"Did we finally get everything?" Ville asked, with his strong Finnish accent. His band mates all had their suitcases for the night, brushing his light brown hair out of his eyes, he double checked to make sure everything was in order. There was a chorus of 'Yep's from his other band mates of Ranger, Jukka and Tanner, though Kasei stayed quiet, standing at his side. They had just arrived to their first hotel they would be staying at for tonight and tomorrow night. Tomorrow was the start of their first big tour and the group couldn't be more excited about it.

"Why don't we all put our things in our rooms and then we can go to the pool?" Ville offered, thinking they should all relax and have some fun before the tour started and they needed to be completely focused on that.

"Sounds good. We'll catch you guys in a bit." Tanner said, heading off to the room he'd be sharing with Jukka, the blond haired guitarist following after him.


Once back to their room, Kasei and Ville tossed their bags on the floor next to their two beds and begun digging through their bags for their swimsuits.

"I don't think I'll ever get used to it being this warm here." Kasei told Ville, a small smile tugging at her lips, making Ville smile in return. If those two had anything in common, it was definitely cold weather. Kasei had been from Alaska, and Ville had lived in Finland all his life.

"It's a bit of a nice change from ice and snow, though, don't you agree?" Ville asked, his amusement clear in his voice as he zipped his bag shut. He watched her nod her agreement. It was then that he noted she had been quieter than usual, giving Ville the impression something was off. She was always quiet, though she usually was a little more lively around him. He had been the only one that she'd let have any clue as to what was going on in her mind, as the two had been quite close for some time now, sure she had befriended Jukka and Tanner, but she'd always been closer to Ville.

"You're alright, aren't you?" Ville asked, eyeing her as she sat on her bed with her bikini. She looked back at him with warm brown eyes, "Yeah, I'm fine." She tossed the bikini top at him which landed on his head and hung off of him comically, trying to make him smile.

"I certainly hope you don't intend for me to wear this..." Ville said, looking up at the black and red bikini top.

"I certainly hope not too. No offense, Ville but I don't think anyone wants to see you like that." She said, shaking her head at him and laughing a little, which made him feel better.

"Alright, alright. I'll try to stop wasting time." Ville chuckled, heading into the bathroom and changing real quick before going and letting her change. He knew his band mates thought it was strange that he and Kasei lived together, even when they were not on tour, but it didn't bother either of them in the least bit - they'd never really had any romantic feelings toward each other.

After a few moments, Kasei came out in her red rose printed bikini top and black bottoms, sweeping her black hair back over her shoulders and in one smooth movement she seized his hand and begun to drag him out of the room, giving him just enough time to grab their room key.

They arrived shortly after, immediately spotting their friends.

"You two finally made it!" Jukka teased, grinning devilishly at them as he approached them, seeming to be thinking of pushing them in to the water. He looked excessively disappointed when Kasei took a seat on one of the lawn chairs.

"You're not going to play with us, Kase?" Jukka whined childishly, looking at her and letting his eyes wander over her body, noting the fact she was just wearing some jean shorts over her bikini bottoms. He let his eyes settle on her chest, making Ville roll his eyes slightly at his old friend. Jukka would never change, though Kasei didn't seem to care much, "Nope." was her only response.
