"Remilia," Rin whispered. She navigated her way through the library, avoiding people and bookshelves, hoping not to bother them. The Medic eventually came to a corner of the room, where a certain Hexer was slumped atop a soft-looking giant cushion, eyes fixed on an old-looking book in her hands. "Remilia. There you are, geez."

The Hexer eventually recognized the voice and looked up. "Oh. Rin."

"I swear, you vanish immediately when it comes to books," Rin muttered. "At least could've made some conversation with the guildmaster, you know?"

"...mmn." Remilia looked up as if to ponder her choices, before shrugging. "...not that well acquainted."

"Well... yeah, but still." Sighing, the orange haired Medic slumped down beside her wife. "So what're you reading anyways?"

Without even looking away from the passage she was currently reading, Remilia replied, "Curse Series, Magic Theory book."

She still doesn't talk too often, but at least it's better than when we were young... Rin grimaced. "Ehh, I see. Interesting?" she asked, leaning closer against the girl- she was basically sort of cuddling with her at this point.

"...helps with trying new magic," Remilia eventually replied. She then followed this with the action of pulling her cloak's hood a bit lower, in an attempt to hide a forming shade of red.

"Hmm. I guess that's the sort of thing you'd certainly love reading about," Rin said.

The two remained still for almost a minute, the Hexer reading and the Medic attempting to comprehend the text.

Remilia then closed the book. "...I can read it later."

"Eh. Is it me?" Rin asked. "I mean, you don't have to. I don't really mind, even if I don't really understand it..."

"...mn." To her confusion, the Hexer put the book down to her left. Then she rested her head atop Rin's, whose head was resting on her shoulder. "...feels nice."

Rin blinked. Then her eyes aimed towards the corner of her vision, feeling heat rush to her cheeks. "R-Remilia..." she whispered. "...you baby."

"..." Initially she wasn't shre how to respond to that, but then Remilia chuckled. "You can sleep."

"Y-you want me to sleep like this?" Rin asked with an unamused look.

"...it'll be cute."

"S-stupid."

Their chuckling and giggling mixed together every few seconds, creating a warm atmosphere around their area, which began to spread as people started taking notice of the obvious loves-truck couple who weren't reading in the library. It took some minutes but the two eventually felt people's curious and fawning stares, and the only thing they could feel about it was humiliation.

Embarrassment and humiliation.

"U-um. Remilia?" Rin asked.

"...mn?"

"Can we... um, can we... go somewhere else?"

Remilia didn't respond, but she was thinking about what to do. On one hand, borrowing the book she was still reading was quite bothersome, especially in Etria since the Guildmaster- who also managed the library as it was in the Explorer's Guild, his building and territory- was quite the incompetent librarian who, for some reason, hasn't retired yet.

"...i-is it the book?" Rin interrupted her thoughts. "If you want, we can borrow it..."

"..." Remilia looked at Rin. Her face clearly hoped for, even if the smallest chance, that they could leave right away. The Hexer nodded. "It's fine." She quickly got up and stuffed the book into a random open space in the shelf behind her, then pulled Rin up and started walking towards the entrance.

"W-wow, you're a bit more assertive than usual..." Rin whispered.

"...really?" Remilia asked.

The two neared the entrance just as Rin nodded. "B-but there's nothing wrong with that! It's, it's cute when you try, too..."

Her brain promptly dropped every thought she previously had, and instead filled her mind with Rin's smile. "...hm..."

"W-what is it?" Rin asked. "I hope I didn't offe-mnn!?"

Remilia shut the girl up with a swift kiss to the lips, the two stopping just outside the building's door. Rin felt a bit embarrassed seeing passing people gasp and grin, but the sensation of her wife's lips quickly washed her mind clear and made her return the passionate kiss.

Their lips parted and Remilia stared into Rin's eyes, both's faces burning with steam.

"...w... was that cute...?" Remilia asked.

Rin gulped. "...um... r-rather than that... it felt really good..." she barely managed to answer.

The two stared for some more seconds, before Rin decided she couldn't take it anymore.

"...l-let's go to the Rooster Inn!" she exclaimed.

Remilia blinked. Then she looked down and shyly nodded, realizing what Rin wanted. The Medic had already started to lead her away by the hand, heading towards a familiar inn from the past. "...you're wild..." the Hexer whispered.

She didn't see it, but she could feel Rin's face explode with steam once more.
