I was awoken by the light that bled through the curtains.

My room was tinted orange from the morning sunrise. It made it feel warm, even a bit more cozy than usual.

It could be compared to as if I was being layered with a thin sheet, as delicate as a feather, yet engulfing like being covered in a thick blanket.

You could see the particles of dust effortlessly floating through the air traveling within the unimpeaded light coming from the mid-point of the curtains.

Just watching it was peaceful

My mind felt hazy, and my head pulsed in the area where I had hit it yesterday.

Though the bleeding had stopped shortly after it occured, a bruise emerged an swelled into a subtle lump.

My body ached in certain areas, this too was probably due to my being thrown around recently.

I was lucky. It could been much worse.

What is this?

"Strawberry..."

The sweet fragrance of a blend of strawberry and vanilla. Overpowering, yet mild at the same time.

The mixing of white and red.

Pink

Turning my vision downward I was met with an overflow of a light shade of pink, along with two spots of red.

A girl, resting her head on my right arm while embracing my torso.

I could feel the slight movements of her breathing, as well as heat from her body flowing into mine.

Her hands gripped my back gently, twitiching from time to time. Tensing up, but then soon after releasing.

Our chests were touching. I could feel her soft yet firm mounds clearly. It could be one of the most pleasant feelings that I have ever felt, but I have no

method of explaining why. It just felt right.

"We went through hell just trying to get that to "be allowed" you know?"

Goro was standing up and dressed in his uniform, peering down at me still in bed.

"G-goro?"

"Ichigo was throwing up a storm demanding that ZeroTwo still had follow the rules if she was going to be living here again, buuuut as her room is destroyed

the rest of us managed to get her to agree."

He said while smiling and giving a thumbs up

"Thank you"

I replied while smiling back

"I know how you feel Hiro."

Goro left the room to go for a walk outside. I remained in the room with the sleeping girl, still continuing to embrace me.

I took my free hand and ran my fingers through her hair.

Its silky feel reminded me of water and how you could effortlessly slice through it, yet only for it to be replaced by itself again.

It glistened when the stray ray of light reflecting off of it.

Her grasp then tightened around me momentarily and she inhaled in a bit deeper then before than before, but then she relaxed herself again.

A few minutes had passed

The pink hair in front of me unexpectedly began to shift slowly like as if it were in slow motion revealing a face.

A pale skin, tinted with a light blush.

Her eyes opened slowly, revealing a glimmer of turquoise with the excess of light within the room.

Just the seeing them left me in awe. It was the first, and probably not the last, time I would experience such wonderful sight.

Realizing the situation she broke the short amount of eye contact we had by turning towards my chest, as if in shame.

A unmistakable yet subtle reddish hue appeared on her cheeks along with a noticeable increase in her heartrate.

ZeroTwo let out an almost inaudible mumble and strengthened her embrace once again.

"D-darling..."

I looked down at her smiling, although, I as well was somewhat embarrased by this situation. It was a completely new experience.

"Good morning, ZeroTwo"

Her gaze slowly arose once again to meet mine.

"I felt that this would be okay..."

She was referring to sleeping within the same bed as me as well as how she was coiling around my body, still ashamed of the fact that she hadn't asked me before.

Of course it is okay...

"Why wouldn't it be?"

I replied with a questioning manner to make it seem like this situation was ordinary attempting to disuade her from thinking she had done something wrong.

Her lips formed a bright smile while she continued to look into my eyes.

This scene where we were both entranced by eachother's gaze carried on for a few more seconds although it was disturbed by a short, blue haired girl bursting through the

door.

"Hiro!"
