It had been a long day of grinding for the famous Kirito. He was looking forward to going back to his home on the 23rd floor of New Aincrad. Only to find Asuna's power had gone out so he was left to sleep alone. That had lasted a good 2 hours or so when another presence slipped into his room almost unnoticed. Almost. Kirito quickly turned on the light, startling a certain blue haired Cat Sith…
"Sinon?" Kirito questioned. "OH KIRITO!" said the obviously startled and embarrassed Sinon. "I didn't think you were awake" She looked down to the floor. "Yeah I couldn't sleep." After a short silence Kirito began to question her. "So was there any reason you decided to come to my house?" Sinon got even more embarrassed. "Uh well you see I uh" She stopped at the sound of his laughter. Instead of being even more embarrassed she became quite angry. "What's so funny?" she demanded. "You getting so embarrassed." He replied through his laughs. She threw a punch that would've landed had he not had the reaction time he did. It reminded her of when they first battled. During the Bullet of Bullets in Gun Gale Online. He has cut right through her bullet. And not only that he had predicted where she would shoot. He truly was an amazing person. "Uh.. Sinon?" She was pulled out of her thoughts. "Are you ok? You kinda spaced out and had a dreamy look on her face." He asked her. "Oh umm no I was just thinking." she tried to play it off. "Alright. But that still doesn't answer why you were in my house." Damn. She thought she had gotten out of that. "Oh umm well I heard Asuna's power was out so I came to see how you were doing." She said. "Oh. Well like I said I couldn't sleep. I usually sleep with Asuna so the lack of company kinda bothered me." He said. Only for Sinon to answer.. Quite strangely. "Well I could stay with you if it bothers you that much." She stopped. She couldn't believe what she just said. She turned redder than Salamander armor. "I'm so sorry. I don't know what came over me." But Kirito didn't look mad. He looked shocked. But then his face softened to one of his trademark grins. "Well if you wanted to stay with me why didn't you just say so?" "EH!? WHAT MAKES YOU THINK I WANT TO STAY HERE WITH YOU!?" She yelled back at him. "Well you did kinda ask to stay here." She turned to storm out when he grabbed her hand. "Come on it was just a joke. If you want to stay here I have no problem with it." She turned back to him. He had that look in his eyes. The kind look. And he had a genuine smile. Not a joking grin. A kind genuine smile. She couldn't help but be calmed down. She smiled back at him. "Well if you insist." Kirito turned around to set the bed up for two and turned around to tell her which side to get on.. Only to see Sinon in just her underwear. Kirito just stood there in awe and he turned red. Sinon was looking at the ground and looked up to see Kirito staring at her. "Oh sorry. This is how I like to sleep. Its not a problem is it?" She asked. Kirito pulled himself together. "No it's not a problem." He said looking away. "You can sleep on that side." He told her. He got under the blanket and Sinon slid onto her side. She got under the covers with Kirito and didn't hesitate to get very close. She wrapped her arms around Kirito and held him tightly. She leaned over and whispered in his ear. "Goodnight. Kirito." Kirito shuddered a bit as he felt her breath on his neck. "Goodnight Sinon."
