When someone reviews, it gives me the motivation to write more because I know there's that one person who read it and will probably read more. SO THANKS!
Also, this is going M which only applies for like one or two chapters! Don't worry, it's not really a lemon scene since it pretty much lacks detail, but it's like... ECCHI! So ya.
Also, in the Japanese version, instead of Shirley calling Chloe "C" like she does in the English version and Norma "Gnorma," whatever the hell that is, she actually gets rid of the san suffix and calls them just Chloe and Norma. She used to call them "Chloe-san" and "Norma-san" but she got rid of the suffixes at that scene rather than give them nicknames in the English version. Just clearing that up for the reader(s) less they get confused. Also, Shirley calls Senel "Onii-chan" in the Japanese version, but I guess they thought calling Senel "Brother" in the English version would sound stupid, so they just made her call him Senel, but it's Onii-chan!! :D
Also, I call hickeys love bites cause it sounds better than lame old hickey. Blech. But lol, love bite sounds stupid too. actually, I can't tell which sounds stupider. One of you readers decide plx.
"Urghhhh.." Norma groaned, as she lay in bed.
"And I thought idiots couldn't catch colds.." Senel mumbled.
Chloe sighed and felt Norma's forehead.
"You shouldn't have dove in for me.." she mumbled, refraining from showing concern in her voice.
"You shouldn't say that, Chloe!" Senel exclaimed.
"If it weren't for Norma, you'd-"
"SHUT UP ALREADY!" Norma yelled, bursting out of bed.
"Jeez, you see I'm not feeling well, so LEAVE! I'm not coming today!" she continued.
She glanced at Senel and then at Chloe.
She then jumped into bed again and groaned.
"Get out now.. I want to sleep," she mumbled with her eyes closed.
"Well.. alright. We'll tell the others then, let's go Chloe," Senel said.
Norma opened her eyes and looked at Chloe.
"Ah, I need to talk to Ku about something, so you go on ahead," she said, staring him down.
Senel could feel the intensity of the stare. He glanced at Chloe, staring her in the eyes for a few quick seconds. Chloe stared right back at him.
"Uh.. alright," he said, heading out. He felt that he shouldn't bother asking what they were going to discuss.
After Senel left, Chloe shifted her view to Norma again.
"So.. what is it you wanted to talk about?" she asked.
"Huh? Oh, nothing really.." Norma said, getting out of bed.
She headed to the window.
"Huh?" Chloe asked.
Norma could see Senel, who was now out of the Inn, heading for Will's house.
"I just didn't want you to leave with him," she turned to Chloe, grinning.
Chloe looked at her for a moment with a blank expression. She blinked and then sighed.
"Honestly, didn't I tell you before? It's not like that anymore!" she exclaimed, walking up to Norma.
She gently took her hand and led her back to the bed. She signaled Norma to get in. Instead, Norma grabbed onto her.
"Noooo, don't leaaveee!" she groaned, clutching her arm.
"Arghh, get offfffff..." Chloe groaned.
"I don't want to be alone toda-a-a-ACHOO!" Norma yelled, sneezing on Chloe.
"Nooorma!!" Chloe exclaimed, pushing her on top of the bed.
Norma felt Chloe's hand on her forehead. She looked up and innocently gazed at Chloe.
"Can you.."
"Hm?" Chloe mumbled, shifting her eyes down to meet Norma's stare.
She quickly found herself captured by it.
"Can you stay with me... just for a little while?" Norma asked, her voice somehow edging a peaceful conviction within Chloe.
Chloe's cheeks tinted red.
"F-fine.." she mumbled.
Chloe got up and stretched, she honestly didn't want to show Norma that she was being vulnerable to her current appearance. The girl would surley take advantage of that.
She walked over to the window and looked outside, hoping for a discussable subject to erupt in her head.
"You know, Ku.."
"Oh, it looks like you'll be getting more company," Chloe said, a sign of relief heard in her voice.
"Huh?"
"Everyone seems to be headed over here," she said, answering Norma's question before it could be asked.
"Aww, are you serious?"
"But, I wanted to say-"
"For the time being.."
Chloe approached Norma and took the blanket off of her. She looked at her messy, uneven pajamas; her shirt unbuttoned and exposing a large portion of her chest area and her pants, which was pulled lower than it was supposed to be.
"..let's fix you up," she said, finishing her premise.
She unbuttoned Norma's pajamas and fixed them properly, evening the prior irregularity of symmetry of the buttoned up shirt. She then moved onto her pants, pulling them up properly and straightening them in alliance to the proportion of her body.
"Jeez, what are you, my mom?"
"Shut up!" Chloe exclaimed.
They then heard a knock on the door.
"You can come in!" Chloe exclaimed, pulling the blanket over Norma.
The door opened up and thus appeared everyone else: Senel, Shirley, Will, Moses, and Jay.
"What, what? You came to torment me, HUH!?" Norma yelled, angrily.
"What's with her?" Senel asked.
"She's just a bit cranky," Chloe said, shrugging.
Norma groaned as everyone approached her.
"We actually came to attempt something," Will stated, his glasses flashing at the word "attempt."
"Attempt?" Chloe asked.
"ATTEMPT WHAT!?" Norma screamed.
"C-calm down, Norma!" Shirley exclaimed.
"I want to see if I can cure your fever," she continued, putting her hands out.
"Cure my fever?" Norma asked.
Jay approached Chloe, tugging on her arm.
"Hm?" Chloe mumbled, her attention caught by the shorter boy.
Jay moved back and signaled Chloe to come over. With curiosity plastered over her face, she did as he gestured.
"What were you two doing prior to when we arrived?" he whispered.
"'What' you say.. I was just fixing her pajamas.." Chloe whispered back, her face turning bright red.
"Are you sure that's all?" he asked.
"Yes, I'm sure! Besides, if we were doing anything else, I'm not obliged to tell you!" she whispered, her voice ready to erupt.
"Calm down, Chloe-san!"
"I have a proposition for you... regarding Norma-san's cold, of course..." he stated.
"Hmm?" Chloe asked, her interest completely caught.
Norma sighed loudly.
"You know! If a fever could be cured by Eres, I would have already cured myself!" she exclaimed, in annoyance.
"Urghh.. my head is pounding, you know.."
"Stop complaining, we were just trying to help.." Senel said to her, scratching his head.
"I don't want to hear that from YOU!!" Norma yelled, annoyed.
"What? Why!?" Senel exclaimed, also becoming annoyed.
"Calm down, both'a you!!" Moses said, putting a hand on Senel's shoulder.
"Come on now, Se-no-ji, she's just cranky is all.. ain't that right, Shabon Musume?"
"Whatever.." Norma mumbled, covering her head with the blanket.
"I think Norma is just disappointed that she can't go with us.." Shirley mumbled innocently, attempting to defend the stubborn girl.
"Tch, alright.. but anyway, we should be heading out now," Senel said, crossing his arms.
"I agree," Jay stated.
"We'll check up on you later, Norma, take care of yourself, alright?" Will stated, not waiting for an answer.
Everyone began to leave the room, except Chloe.
"Chloe, you're not coming?" Senel asked.
Norma stuck her head out of the blanket and looked at her.
Chloe's face was totally red.
"U-uh..m.. I-I think I'm g-" Chloe stuttered.
She put her hand in front of her mouth and pretended to clear her throat by coughing.
"I'm going to stay with her, just for a little while. Just to make sure she's alright, I'll catch up with you guys later, alright? You know, fevers can grow worse and worse, especially since she's being stubborn, who knows what she might attempt next, HAHAHA!" Chloe managed to say, her verbal swiftness being faithful to her.
Senel stared at her blankly, while Will looked at her suspiciously. Moses felt something inside stab his heart, while Jay simply chuckled. Shirley just blinked.
"Uh.. alright," Senel managed to mummble after the awkward 50 seconds of silence.
Everyone soon left the room, their footsteps being heard moving down the stairs.
"What was that about?" Norma asked, staring at Chloe.
"Ah, that was-" Chloe said, shifting her glance to Norma.
Her face flushed red.
'What the hell am I being embarrased for?' she thought.
She put both of her hands on her head and ruffled her hair.
'But to take advantage of this girl while she's in this state, I'm not that sort of person! Though I do have to admit that she is innocently cuter than usual, but still... Jay said... he said that if.. ARGH!'
"KU!" Norma yelled, snapping her back to reality.
"H-h-huh?" chloe asked.
"What's the matter?" she asked, worried.
Chloe's heart sank as she saw Norma's worried gaze... it innocently tampered with her.
'Ah.. I guess I could try..' she thought, approaching the girl.
Senel felt annoyed.
He honestly didn't know why, but he felt extravagantly annoyed.
"Onii-chan?"
"Onii-chan!"
"Huh?"
Shirley moved in front of Senel and looked up at him.
"What's wrong, Onii-chan?"
"N-nothing.. I'm just a little tired!" he said, looking to the side.
When will Chloe be coming, anyway? She's been awfully distant to him lately, maybe it was something he did? But, what did he do?
"AH!!" Shirley exclaimed.
"Huh? What's the matter, Shirley?" Senel asked.
"I forgot my quill!" she said.
"Where did you leave it?" he asked.
"I think I left it at Will-san's house, wait for me at the entrance, okay Onii-chan?"
"Sure.." Senel said, putting on a fake smile.
He's been doing that too often, maybe he should stop it.. but then again, he can't help it. He can't help but try to smile everytime Shirley smiles so brightly at him. She doesn't seem to fake them.
He turned around and stared up at the inn. When is Chloe going to catch up, he wondered. He shook his head and looked to the direction of Will's house. Shirley was already there, probably. He then turned around and headed down to the entrance of the town.
"Chloe.." he mumbled.
"Are you... mad at me?"
"W-what are you doing!!" Norma yelled.
"Hold still.." Chloe mumbled.
Chloe managed to completely unbutton Norma's shirt and now she was trying to force it off.
"H-hey, stop it!! I'm sick, you know!" Norma yelled.
"Th-they say.." Chloe started to say.
"Huh?"
Chloe slipped off Norma's shirt and embraced her.
"H-hey.."
"They say that directly transfering body heat will help cure your fever.." Chloe whispered in Norma's ear, her face flushed red.
"Wh-who said?" Norma asked, trying to push her off.
"Does it matter?" Chloe asked, intentionally getting off of her.
"Besides, I.. I want to do this!" Chloe exclaimed.
"Do what!?" Norma exclaimed.
"We can do extra stuff.. it will cause more heat to come from our bodies.." Chloe mumbled, stripping herself.
"H-h-hey wait, what do you mean by 'extra stuff'!? Besides, I really don't want to.. I, uh, am sick.. I-I.."
Norma watched as Chloe removed her black overalls.
"So THAT'S how you remove it!"
"I always wondered how you remove that thing, it's really tight and I see no zipper.." she mumbled.
Chloe approached Norma and smiled.
"You know, when it comes down to the moment, you're the one that's always embarrased," she stated.
"And you're the one that's always ready and forward and perverted and-"
"Alright, alright, that's enough.." Chloe mumbled, swiftly removing Norma's pajama pants.
"Waaah, pervert!"
She pushed Norma on the bed and creeped up on top of her.
"I-I'm already sweating... so let's stop this, okay? I.. uh.." Norma couldn't finish what she was saying, her face was burning red and she felt light-headed.
"You don't want to come adventuring with us like you always do?" Chloe asked.
"You want me to leave and go with them..?"
"T-that's not it.. I just.." Norma mumbled.
She gazed up into Chloe's eyes as she found them coming closer and closer.
Her lips were captured by Chloe's and she found herself locked into a kiss.
As the kiss broke, Chloe's right hand moved down to Norma's chest as her other hand creeped down, below her waist.
"Ah!"
"S-sto..." Norma mumbled through a gasp, but was cut off by Chloe's kiss.
Chloe's head creeped down to Norma's chest and suddenly she began to feel a ticklish and delicate notion coming from there. The intensity of her body greatened, as she felt she legs become loose and her body, hot.
"St-stop.. move.. your hand.." Norma mumbled through quiet moans.
Chloe creeped back up and brushed Norma's hair back with her free hand. She whispered something in Norma's ear, making her flush red.
"I-I'm not.."
"Well.. you're mine.." Chloe stated, smiling.
"I am not!" Norma exclaimed.
Chloe kissed Norma's neck.
"Shall I leave a love bite?"
"Wh-what?"
Norma felt a pressure on her neck from Chloe's mouth and gasped.
"S-stop.. Ku.."
Suddenly, the door swung open and the two girls quickly turned their heads to the direction of the open door.
There stood Shirley, with an aghast expression.
"Quill.. forgot.. thought.. Will.." she mumbled, her words not fully coming out.
Chloe's eyes shifted to the dresser next to the bed, where the infamous quill laid under the lamp.
"R-ricchan.. this is.."
"I!" Shirley exclaimed.
She rose up both of her hands innocently.
"I'M SORRY FOR INTERRUPTING!"
"I-I-I..." she yelled, stuttering.
"EXCUSE ME!!"
Before Shirley could even turn around, Chloe swiftly moved in front of the door, slamming it shut and locking it.
"Wait, Shirley! This is-" Chloe yelled.
"Kya!" Shirley exclaimed, falling back on the floor.
Chloe looked down at herself and blushed, picking up her cape which was thrown just near the door. How'd it land there, anyway? Either way, she covered the front portion of her body with it.
Chloe took a step forward making Shirley gasp.
"No, please dont!" she yelled.
"Huh?" Chloe asked, confused.
"My.. I.. MY FIRST TIME IS SUPPOSED TO BE WITH ONII-CHAN!" Shirley exclaimed, loudly.
"Wha-"
"Ahem, Ku, I think Riichan is getting the impression that you're about to attack her," Norma stated, standing up with the blanket from the bed already wrapped around her.
"WHAT!?" Chloe exclaimed.
"No, no, Shirley! You've got it wrong, this is just-" Chloe started to say, waving her hands.
"We're lovers!" Norma stated, in a rather excited tone.
"Norma!" Chloe yelled.
"What, it's fine, isn't it?" Norma asked.
"No, it's not!" Chloe exclaimed, yelling at her.
"Why not!?" Norma exclaimed, yelling back.
Before the arguement could continue, Shirley darted up.
"Really!?" Shirley exclaimed.
"Eh?" Chloe asked.
"Is it true? Are you really lovers?" Shirley asked, her tone demanding an answer.
"Well... that is.. uh.."
Norma stared at Chloe stuttering and staring at the floor. Could she not admit it? That they were lovers? Now that she thought about it, as far as she knew, Chloe has never once actually admitted her love for her to another person, has she?
"Does.." Shirley started.
"Huh?" Chloe asked, looking back at her.
"Does that mean you've given up on Onii-chan?" she asked, finishing her previous statement.
Chloe's eyes widened. Give up on Senel?
"Does that mean that I can.. make him mine?" Shirley exclaimed.
'Make him mine..?' What?
"I know that sounds stupid and selfish, Chloe, but.. have you.. really given up on Onii-chan?"
"You and Norma are lovers, right?" she asked.
"I...I really love him, so!"
"She has!" Norma exclaimed.
"Eh?" Chloe asked, looking back at Norma.
She found Norma staring at her, and her eyes widened even more. Why did she hesitate from answering? She realized that she had hurt Norma. Hurt her gravely.
"She has... so please stop asking those things, Riichan!" Norma exclaimed, plastering a fake grin on her face. It was hard as hell to do that.
Shirley's face brightened.
"I wish you two all the happiness in the world!" Shirley exclaimed.
"I don't think it's strange at all, I think it's wonderful, really! And I'm not saying this because you've given up on Onii-chan, Chloe! I really mean it!" she continued.
Chloe put on a fake smile.
"Thank you, Shirley.."
Chloe walked over to the dresser and picked up Shirley's quill and then handed it to her.
"Sorry for this.. haha.." Chloe said, helplessly.
"It's alright, I'm actually quite glad! I really didn't mean to interrupt!"
"Riichan, you mind keeping this a secret from everyone else?" Norma asked, sitting back down on the bed.
"Eh? Ah.. I understand, I will!" Shirley exclaimed, nodding.
"I better leave before they come looking for me, I'll see you two later!" she said, unlocking the door.
She smiled and left.
Norma and Chloe continued to stare at the door, somehow waiting for Shirley to come back again.
"Norma.. I.." Chloe mumbled, breaking the silence.
"You're... over him, aren't you?" Norma asked, her voice breaking up.
Chloe looked over at Norma, as she saw tears run down the girl's face.
"N-norma.." Chloe mumbled, walking over to her. She sat next to her on the bed.
"I.. I am.." she mumbled.
"I AM! So please don't cry!" she exclaimed, wiping her tears away.
"I.. love you.." Chloe said, smiling sadly.
Chloe pulled Norma to her chest, embracing her. She kissed her neck and being delicate, created a love bite.
"That's... two out.. of four.. isn't it?" Norma mumbled.
'Isn't it...two out of three?..' Chloe thought.
"Sorry I took so long!" Shirley yelled, running up to the group still waiting for her at the entrance of the town.
"I recall you taking your quill with you," Will stated.
"Yes, I left it in Norma's room!" Shirly exclaimed.
"What happened, Shirley? You seem pretty happy!" Senel said.
Shirley looked at Senel and smiled brightly.
'Whoa, too bright!' Senel thought, bringing his hand in front of his face. He realized what he did and quickly used the hand to ruffle his puffy white hair.
"Let's go, shall we?" Shirley asked, taking the lead.
"Somethin' good musta happened!" Moses exclaimed.
'She must have found out..' Jay thought.
Will's glasses glared in the sun as he followed Shirley.
Senel watched as the others went on ahead and looked back at the inn, for just a moment.
"Onii-chan!" Shirley yelled.
"Coming!" he yelled, turning back.
'Hurry up and come already, Chloe..' Senel thought.
'I.. miss you..'
R&R PLX.
