Chapter 4
It was yet another night; it had been a couple of days since she had been spoke to by Rei. Yet despite everything, things were still awkward for Miku between her and Kei. She was currently in bed, wearing a pink mid-thigh length thin strapped nightgown.
She wasn't sure what possessed her to wear it, she actually found it a little revealing, especially since there were times the fabric seemed almost translucent, she sometimes felt naked wearing it. Yet she hadn't thought of that when she chose it that night.
'I...I feel so exposed, I shouldn't be wearing this, I swore I'd never wear it.' She thought to herself. ' I guess, I guess either I just, couldn't be bothered to pick something else; or am I…?'
She blushed at the sudden thought she had chosen it deliberately. But quickly pushed that thought away; instead focusing on simply trying to get to sleep.
It wasn't easy, her thoughts were still in too much of a rush; the combination of her awkward sensations around Kei, her fears of nightmares and everything else was almost getting out of hand. But finally, she managed to calm herself down enough to finally drift off to sleep.
Sadly, it wasn't to be, she soon found herself in the grips of another nightmare, not just of the Manor of Sleep, but of the actual Himuro Mansion and what she suffered there. She jerked awake with a cry and actually had to take a moment to collect herself, to remind herself she was safe, at home, not in Himuro Mansion of the Manor of Sleep.
She got out of bed and approached the window.
'It's alright Miku, you're alright; you're safe...' She told herself.
There was a knock at the door and a familiar voice. "Miku."
She turned at once and spoke without thinking. "Kei, come in."
He did so, clad in his own pyjamas and it was then Miku recalled how she was dressed and blushed instantly.
Her eyes went wind. 'Oh God, I'm wearing; he can see...I'm showing my legs, my, my body is, I...'
Kei blushed too and quickly looked away. "Oh, I'm sorry, I..."
Swallowing and remembering Rei's advice, Miku did her best to calm down.
"It's alright; why did you come?"
Kei turned to her again, managing a small smile. "I think you can guess, what you did for me?"
She smiled back. "Oh, I; I did have a nightmare...You; came to me?"
"Yes; I; I want to help you." He replied.
She smiled and nodded; suddenly she didn't feel so embarrassed by her sleepwear. They both lay in Miku's bed, holding each other as Kei did his best to soothe her and allowed her to drift back to sleep, just as she did for him.
Meanwhile; Rei herself had woken up from a nightmare. She sighed and sat on the edge of her bed; brushing down her blue, thin strapped nightgown, allowing it to come down to just above her knees, as it was supposed to.
'Another night like this, well, no harm in trying.' She thought.
Hoping it would work; she stood and left her bedroom, heading downstairs to the kitchen. She was about to enter when she heard a soft voice.
"Rei?"
She turned and saw Mio sitting there, clad in the black panties and black thin strapped tank-top, which showed a little of her stomach, that she usually wore to sleep.
"Oh, Hi Mio, you have a nightmare too?" She queried.
Mio nodded. "Yeah, I thought, I thought maybe a warm drink would help."
She gestured to the mug of hot cocoa in front of her; Rei smiled, that had in fact been her plan. So, getting herself a mug she sat down on the other sofa and the two got to talking; calming themselves down and working through their nightmares, helping each other; unaware of their house-mates other methods to combat their nightmares.
Rei had a suspicion, but nothing definite. She finally figured out their fear however and knew now, it was Mio they were afraid of finding out about the feelings Miku and Kei had for each other. But Rei decided to ensure she'd be on hand to help with that, she just hoped that the pair would finally come to terms with their feelings.
It would help them both considerably, that she was sure of.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
