Soifon tried to lift her head, but the world spun and she dropped back down, burying her head in the pillows she'd been resting on. She could barely remember the night's events…Yoruichi-sama had been invited to a noble's party, and invited Soifon in turn, apologizing to her bodyguard with a smile as she set Soifon between herself and a group of loud, ill mannered, disrespectful and completely drunk noblemen…
Oh, kami no…
She was attending a gathering of nobles with Yoruichi-sama, and she had gotten herself drunk?! She'd accepted that tiny amount of sake only to be polite, but what had she been thinking?! Of all the times and places to fail in her duty…the disrespect she'd shown…the scandal that would result…Yoruichi-sama must be furious with her!
Soifon dug herself deeper, pushing the pillows around her aching head, trying not to think of what awaited her. At least, she tried to, but even through the haze and going by touch alone, a part of her brain registered that the pillows wouldn't move the way she wasted them too.
Soifon tilted her head upward, trying to focus, and was immediately confronted by Yoruichi's smiling face.
"Hey."
"Y-Yoruichi-sama! I'm so sorry! I-"
Yoruichi laid a hand on her head and gave a gentle rub, her grin widening.
"Actually, I never wanted to go in the first place. But you know how nobles can be…Thank you, for giving me the chance to leave."
"You…you looked after me? But that's…"
"It's no problem."
Soifon's face flushed with embarrassment at the thought of Yoruichi having to look after her, and she tore herself away from the smiling face, occupying herself with getting the pillows to move. The problem, it turned out, was quite simple.
The 'pillows' were attached to Yoruichi's chest.
"Comfortable?"
Soifon jerked her hands away with a cry of surprise and sat up, too fast, Yoruichi catching her before she could fall again.
"No…this isn't happening…it's not…"
Soifon looked down at her commander's wry smile, startling as she was lowered back down.
"Relax."
Soifon was shaking as she came back down to rest on Yoruichi's chest, keeping her hands well away from her commander's body.
"Go to sleep, it's just a dream…"
"Just a…dream?"
"Mmmhmm."
"A dream…"
Yoruichi smiled as she felt Soifon relax, but frowned as she suddenly lifted herself up and leaned forward.
"Is it really? Even if it is, I shouldn't…"
"Shouldn't what?"
"My apologies, Yoruichi-sa…Yoruichi…"
And before Yoruichi could react to the new expression on Soifon's face, the girl dropped and clamped her mouth over her commander's lips hungrily, hands already roaming over her body. The shock passed by the time Soifon's mouth had moved to her neck, and Yoruichi rested two fingers on the base on the girl's skull, whispering the words to a binding spell.
"Pleasant dreams…"
Yoruichi took the girl to her room and put her into bed, peering once more at the sleeping form before she closed the door behind her and headed for her own room, smiling in the dark.
"But not too pleasant, alright?"
