*Noire POV
Today was an average day for Noire. She got up in the morning, had breakfast, and was in the middle of working when she started to zone out, again. She began thinking of her friends in Planeptune, Plutia, and Turiel. This had been happening every now and again, thinking of the fun she had with Plutia, and what little time she had with Turiel. Normal she wouldn't have cared about a guy, for the ones she has met before, were not all that great. Though in her mind, Being saved by Turiel not once but twice, and him selflessly standing in harm's way, so she can run away; Noire knew that if she was to have a boyfriend/partner in life... He was to be the one. The biggest hurdle for her though was her own best friend... Plutia. She had gotten close enough to Turiel so he would, from Noire's preservative, lower his guard enough for Iris Heart and him to have sex. This was another problem for her. In midst of her thoughts, she heard knocking at the door that leads to her living quarters. She was blushing lightly, took a deep breath, and went to answer the door. Before she got to the door though, it swung open.
" Hellloo Noire, How's it hanging," said a girl with purple hair and eyes. She had a short white jacket and a short purple dress. In her short hair, I saw two d-pads as hair clips. Standing behind her was Plutia and… Turiel.
" Damn it, Neptune. Did anyone ever teach you patience, or not to barge in. " Turiel said with his face buried in his right hand.
" Hello Noire, It's nice seeeiing you again," Plutia said smiling at me. my blushing only grew, for now, the two people I was thinking about, stood before me, and with a new face.
" Who the hell are you, and why the hell are you with them?!" I asked the stranger that who throw open MY door without permission.
" I'm Neptune, you may not know it but we're friends. Will… at least in my world we are. You look very much like the Noire in my world, only you have a different outfit, and you may even have friends as well. Maybe." Neptune said while snickering about the 'no friends' part.
" THEIR standing behind you. And more importantly, how the hell do you know them." I replied back, irritated at her with a vein mark on my head.
" Will for starters. I was forced into this world by someone else. Ended up landing on Turiel here, who is somehow a CPU. I was like WHAT?! At first, more shockingly he is actually very productive as a Planeptune's CPU. We came here...will I came here to see you in person, Turiel came here for business, and will… Plutie just tagged along for the fun of it." Was Neptune's response to my question. " Oh yeah, I almost forgot. Can Plutie and I here take a nap, since you two have some boring business work you need to take care of."
" Now hold on a minute…" I said before thinking about the situation,
'wait Turiel want to talk to me alone, will I mean about business, and nothing possible else, so why not have these two nap here and the two of us can go out and talk business after we had caught up with each other.'
" Sure, right this way you two. Turiel, just have a seat over there and I'll be right with you." I said having both Plutia and Neptune following me and pointed at one of the couches. I showed them both to a guest room with a bed large enough for the two to sleep. They both looked at each other, and walked on in, closing the door behind them.
' good, now with that out of the way. I can ask Turiel a few things, and get to know him more. Not like I WANT to go out with him or anything like that. I Just want to be better friends with him, that's all.' Noire then made her way to Turiel, who upon inspecting, had a backpack with him with papers in there.
" Um, Turiel… could we… you know… catch up before talking about what business you want to talk about. It would be nice, after all, we are friends." I asked Turiel. I was going to show off Lastation to him, but first I want to go to a dinner with him. Not like a date or anything, but as friends wanting to catch up.
" Um, I guess we could, it would give more time for those two to rest. Did you have somewhere in mind?" he asked. I began feeling a little embarrassed, I had never been alone with him.
" Yes, I do. Just follow close to me okay." I said while smiling. I could feel butterflies in my stomach, and my heart was racing. I lead him out of my Basilicom.
*Neptunes POV
Noire just showed Plutia and me to a guest room. We went to the bed and laid down beside each other. I began thinking about that strange guy, Turiel. Was it just my imagination or do both Noire and Plutia have stronger than 'being friends' feelings for Turiel? The Noire I know wouldn't have anything to with a guy if she could, then again that Noire was more of a loner than this one. What about Plutia though. Just thinking that she rolled over onto me for a few seconds and rolled back off me and began cuddling with a pillow.
" Hey Plutie, is something a matter?" I asked her.
" No…*yawn* just trying to get comfy is all," Plutia said in a sleepy tone. " Normally I would ask Tur if I could use him as a body pillow. "
" Um...what was that? I don't think I heard you correctly." I asked sheepishly to her. I don't know if she is just sleep talking, or she is being serious.
" Tur and I normally sleep together, although he doesn't make a move or anything like that on me." She said sounding disappointed.
" W-What was that? W-Will Whatever, it's not like you two did it before, right. I mean, sure you appear very 'friendly' with him in your HDD form, b-but you two would never cross that line." I asked nervously and confused. Turiel didn't seem lovey-dovey with her, so maybe there is a misunderstanding going on. After all, these stories sometimes have misunderstandings between characters.
" We did it once, in the shower..." was what Plutia muttered in a sleepy tone.
"... …. NEEEEPPPPUUUU!?...WH-WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY!? " I shouted sitting straight up quickly feeling my cheeks burning red hot.
*Turiel's POV
When Noire and I got to the first floor of the Basilicom. I could hear loud sounds coming from somewhere above us.
" Um, Noire what was that?" I asked completely confused by the sound.
" Oh… it's probably nothing for us to worry about. Let's just keep going, it is around lunchtime, so let's get moving." Noire said to me, I shrugged at the sound and just kept following Noire. As we strolled through Lastation, most of the locals looked our way. They would look at me in particular when Noire would pass them, they gave me an arrangement of looks; from the jealous look to the ' I'm going to kill you' look, to the approving look like ' that's my boy' although this was the rarest of them. It was uneasy for me, I don't like being the center of attention, especially around a large crowd. It didn't help that THEIR CPU was walking around in broad daylight with some guy close to her. We finally came to a diner that looked like a traditional dinner. It had big windows with booth seats next to them. There were three high tables, other smaller tables, and booth around the rest of the diner. As we entered, the doorman was standing by his little podium looking bored out of his mind, when he saw Noire he greeted us.
" L-Lady Black Heart, um...eh..." he said frantically trying to make himself more professional. " How can I help you?"
" High tables for two please," Noire told him.
" Right this way then my Lady." He said showing us to our table and gave us both menus. We both said thank you to him, though I could tell he was glaring at me. I took a seat and started looking around. More people around us were shooting glares at me before turning back to what they were doing. Noire was looking throw the menu and I turned to the back of the menu where the drinks were listed. A waitress came to our table, she was shocked and excited that the country's very own CPU was sitting in the diner she was working.
" What would the two of you like to drink this afternoon?" She said to us.
" I'll take a large green tea, please," Noire said to her.
"I'll have a large green tea as well." I didn't know what else I wanted to drink so I defaulted to what Noire asked for.
" Very well," she went off to get our drinks. Noire had put down her menu started staring at me intently. I kept looking through the menu and found something I wanted to eat. I found a double cheeseburger that you could add things to. It had an order fries that it comes with. I placed my menu and look at Noire.
" So, Noire, how was your day today?" I asked her, as a way to sparking a conversation.
" Oh it was pretty nice, I was in the middle of doing work. How was yours." She replied to me.
" Will. My morning was pretty normal I did a little work, went out to my balcony, only to be hit by a falling and then sat on by A Neptune. Then because she wanted to walk all the way here to see you, I decided to come along with and want to talk to you about some business I wanted to talk with you about, so we can both make better nations through cooperation. Plutia came with us because she wanted to. We then made our way here through the Jet Set Range. Didn't run across monsters until we were ambushed by two wolves one caused claw wounds on my chest, Plutia a little later healed my wounds. We defeated one and the other ran off. The one we killed had a strange death." it was then that the waitress came back to our table and asked us what we would order. I told her my order, I asked for the double cheese with bacon and a side order of fries. While Noire, said she was going to have a salad with dressing. After her order, the waitress left.
" So, how was the death of these wolves different?" Noire asked curious about my story.
" Will their bodies slowly dissipated, like how embers flake off our logs in a fire. It was really strange, then the next strange thing that happened was that we all saw a dark blue flash." I said to her.
" That is really strange" Noire seemed a little distracted while listening to my story and stared intently at me.
" Did I mention after fighting the wolves, Plutia had me piggyback her to the entrance of Lastation," I noted a little annoyed.
" Uh-hu. That sounds like he," she noted."You know if it wasn't for you, Planeptune wouldn't be the powerhouse it is today, and Plutia would be unable to take care of herself, let alone a nation." Noire Mumbled under her breath.
" What was that?" I asked Noire.
" Nothing, nothing at all." She replied to me.
" So, Turiel," she said before the waitress came back with our food. We said thank you to her and began eating. Midway through our meal Noire continued. " Has Plutia been any help to you in building Planeptune?"
" No, not really. I have mainly been the one taking care of both her and the country. Histoire can maintain the nation, but can't make any progress in improving it because of how brutal the monster is in the area. Which is why I had to improve our armed forces so that they can at least hold their own in a fight." I explained to Noire, going a little bit on a tangent.
" I see, well why don't we finish eating and then head back to Basilicom and do what you came here to do. Afterward, we can get those two to do some work. What do you say?" Noire Propose to me. I agreed and we finished eating and I offered to pay, but Noire insisted to because she was the one inviting me. we then made our way back to her Basilicom. There were still people, much like before, shooting gazes at me. We got back to the Basilicom and made our way back up to the living quarters, only to find a disturbed Neptune with bright red cheeks and bulged eyes sitting on the couch shaking.
" I-It can't be. I-It just can't, can it?" was what Neptune muttered.
* Flashback to Neptune
Plutia had sat up and rubbed her eyes. I could tell that she wasn't happy about me yelling.
" Why did you have yelled Neppy? I was almost asleep, you meany." Plutia said staring at me irritated. I was having a troubling putting this together. Not only did, what I assume happened, was Iris Heart, Miss Sadie, had done it to Turiel, but that they both liked. I didn't know what to think.
' Is Turiel a closet Masochist, did Sadie gave it to him gently, or what? I do and Don't want to know anymore. Why doesn't Turiel feel the same way about her? Could he be in love with Noire more than Plutia, or something? What is going on between these three?'
" Neppy? Are you okay?" Plutia asked.
" Y-Yeah I-I'm fine. I'm going to go into the living room. You can go back to sleep Plutie." I said to her as I walked off. I sat down on the couch and began getting my thoughts together.
* Back to Turiel POV
" Um, Neptune. Did something happen between you and Plutia? Did you piss her off or something? Hello? You there?" I tried asking Neptune.
" Uh, Turiel, I don't think you are going to get through to her," Noire commented upon inspecting her.
" We should've gone and checked what the loud noise was. It probably was the sound of a tortured Neptune." I said to Noire, annoyed that she didn't listen to me.
" I don't think that is what happened," Noire said walking to the guest room where Plutia was napping.
" T-Turiel? D-Did you do it with Plutia? Please tell me it isn't true." Neptune questioned me while maintaining her current state. I recoiled in response to that question, then looked away while blushing. I began lightly scratching the side of my face.
" It was in the heat of the moment thing, you know," I said sheepishly to Neptune who had gone pale and laid on the couch like a statue was pushed over. She then shot up and grabbed me by the collar.
" What is the story between you three. Please tell me." Neptune said with dispersion in her voice.
" All right, I will tell you, But first have a seat," I said to her. She had returned to a somewhat normal state. I explained that I saw both Plutia and Noire as more like friends than potential partners. I also told her how Iris Heart and I got to point of "doing it" together, leaving out the more mature content for her own imagination to fill in the rest. Next, I stated that I and the other two had never been out on a date, or did anything romantic before or after the shower event.
" I see..." Neptune said with a deadpan look. " We are following that path, now are we author. You know you should Embrace the feelings that the two of them have for you, right?"
" I don't know what you mean," I said, lying to her face while trying to keep my composure. I knew that they have more complex feelings for me, but I don't want either of them to stop wanting to be around me. They are the only people in this world I can call friends, and they were the first people I meet when I came to. I still can't remember how I ended up falling from... the...sky. That is when it dawned on me.
" Sure you don't. Will anyways, not my problem. I think." Neptune said aloud. Just then Plutia and Noire rounded the corner. Noire was blushing and Plutia looked like she was still waking up.
" So, um, change of plans. The three of us ladies are going to go and have a talk. Turiel, we can discuss business when the three of us get back. We will be out for a while, and you can make yourself at home. Just don't go into my room or anything, Got It. " Noire said to the three of us. I agreed, while Plutia and Neptune whined and were drugged off by Noire.
