Ahem, anyways, first of all, apologies for me not updating Celestial Fate, for I am having a conflict whether or not to restart the entire story because the current state of the story is kinda….weird and conflicting for the future plot progresses….Also, I've been pretty busy these days-busy with what?

However, it all depends on what idea might pop up in my mind though. Welp, wihout further ado ladies and gent, lets kick start this compilation with the pairing of AddRa~~~~Enjoy~~

SHOT #1

Letting Your Guard Down

Casts:

Ara Haan—Asura

Add—Diabolic Esper

"…..zzzzz"

"….sigh, I knew it would come down to this."

In the midst of a peaceful night, when most of the creatures of Elrios had fallen into slumbers, only a certain white-haired scientist seemed to be the only midnight owl awake and working on his space-time projects in his dark room, where the only light source provided for him to be able to see his work progress is being illuminated from his holographic screens.

While Add was hoping to be able to concentrate on finish maintaining his equipment and upgrading his overall abilities before dawn-since he had been causing mayhem on the battlefield and going on a rampage against the demons with the El Gang during the day-the constant gentle sleeping sound that was produced by a raven haired-lady on his bed was exceptionally loud to his ears in this silent night and is definitely distracting him from being able to continue on his tasks.

Sighing again, he recalled how and why his Asura girlfriend was in his room right now and sleeping so soundly on his comfy bed.

~Two hours ago~

It was 1.00AM when the Haan lady barged into the Esper's room, in which surprised Add and caused him to jolt from his position a bit.

"Add~! It's already late! Stop being stubborn and get some rest already, mou~~!"

Pouting, Ara sneaked her slender arms and hugged Add's left arm, all the while looking at Add with sparkly, cute eyes. Add somehow find that adorable expression similar to a cute puppy trying to beg for its owners attention.

"Geh….shouldn't you be saying that to yourself instead and get some sleep? I'm almost done here, just give me another like, 5 more minutes? And I should be done."

"But you said the exact same thing one hour ago! I can't trust you when it comes to you doing whatever coding or upgrading your robot thingies."

"…..It's Dynamos."

"I don't care! We've all been working hard during the day and now it's the time to be sleeping, but you're not! So I'm not going to leave and keep an eye on you until you find me staring at your back being annoying and finally decide to sleep!"

Pouting yet again, Ara plopped herself down onto Add's bed, and started sending piercing glares at Add's back.

Shaking his head, Add turned back to his tables and tried his best to ignore his lover's stares as he forced himself to continue on with his work.

"…..sigh, do whatever you want, I need to get this thing done as soon as possible. Besides, I'm pretty sure you're gonna fall asleep faster than me being able to complete my tasks."

"Hmph! That won't happen! I swear I'll stay awake and continue watching you until you decided to sleep!"

…and that promise of staying awake seemed to be unfulfilled later on.

~Present Time~

Turning to face his dear Ara who was lying on the bed, he noticed a few things-

Number one, the expression of his lover sleeping so soundly was way too goddamn adorable.

Number two, Ara's pyjamas aren't exactly in a….neat condition, as her clothes are a bit disoriented and revealing parts of her attractive figure. While Add hate to admit it, it certainly was quite a sight to make his heart race a little, but he quickly shook off the feelings and a few certain thoughts that flashed across his mind.

Number 3, she's sleeping without blankets on this slightly chilled night, which could make her get a cold in the morning afterwards.

And number 4, her sleeping posture near the edge of the bed isn't exactly good for her.

"Yare yare…..this girl,"

Shaking his head, he could only walk towards his girlfriend with a warm smiling expression on his face. Brushing off a few locks of hair that was on Ara's sleeping face, Add carried Ara and place her properly on the bed.

"I swear you're letting your guard down too much around me just because I'm your boyfriend. If it's anyone else that saw your current state of sleeping and being…erm, a bit revealing, they would've taken advantage of you."

Mumbling under his breath, Add tried to fix Ara's attire and put on a blanket on her, only to receive something surprising in return.

"….are you sure I'm the only one letting my guard down?"

"?!"

A pair of slender hands suddenly found their way up to Add's neck and pulled him down to the soft bed. By the time Add finally registered what has happened, he found his girlfriend sitting on top of his torso, face expressing a sly, but lovely smile.

"Got you~"

"Wha-"

"Ehehe, you thought I was asleep aren't you? Well a good predator will always be patience and wait for the right time to pounce~ Oh and also…..did how I look in my 'sleep' just now excite you, until you had the slightest thought of taking advantage a pure girl such as me~?"

Add could only blush as he quickly denied what Ara said.

"Nononono, I wasn't-uh-anyways, let me go right now! I need to complete my tasks! I swear I just need a bit more time-mmph?!"

Sealing Add's response away with a sweet kiss that lasted for a few seconds, Ara parted away with his lips and lay directly on top of Add.

"Nope, you aren't going anywhere~~It's late now and you should sleep~"

Giggling, she wrapped her arms around Add's body and hug him tight, but yet gentle like a body pillow.

…..It's not like Add hated the feeling of being a body pillow for Ara though, if anything, he admit it is very soothing and warm.

Sighing again, he could only look down at Ara's still smiling face and ask.

"….I don't have a choice, do I?"

"Ehehe~ Goodnight Addie~"

"….you little, keke," Smiling back gently, Add decided to just surrender and plants a chaste kiss on Ara's forehead instead.

"….goodnight."

And in a few minutes time, the couple's minds wandered off into dreamland as they both continued to cuddle each other for warmth under the quiet twilight.

ANDDDDDDDDDDDDDD that's it for the first one! Hope you guys enjoyed! …..apologies though if I ever made them a bit OOC of sort :P Anyways, hopefully I'll be able to find some other ideas and I'll update soon! Alright, EternaPhoenix reporting in, objective cleared. Peace out!
